Seems PlayStation have launched a free lifestyle mag in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, covering sport, technology, gaming, music, film etc. “The PlayStation brand will be shaped with PS3 as high definition home entertainment. With CONSOUL we look directly at the lifestyle of our customers. We address all, the fun of new emerging gadgets, the digital life of the internet, and naturally our outstanding games and films”, said Uwe Bassendowski, Managing Director of Sony Computer Entertainment Deutschland GmbH.
Has anyone seen a copy? Any good? The girl on the cover, by the way, comes from the new PS3 TV advertising campaign.

Just one thing to say with this cover… “This is living” ^^ something that we do everyday, like Sony always wanted us to see the PS3 “something of everyday”… yeah, definitely, this is living ^^.
And for those asking themselves :
Freude = Joy (in german)

Forget Zippatoni faux gangster blogs, forget chucking money to Axel Springer or whoever this is to make something like Maixm which will last a few months, just price it fair and Europeans will buy like pigs at a trough..
Alternatively - get Fumito Ueda’s team to hurry up and give people a reason to drop this much cash…..MGS4….can’t wait…but i will and so will a lot of other people

interesting choice of words…
con and soul, get it? xD
i think someone at sony PR needs to get fired.
the design of the ps3 logo on the blu ray cases sucks too, i can make a better one myself in photoshop. What are they thinking?
and what about that this is living campaign going on in europe?
design, layout and the message is a disaster!
TELLING PEOLPE WHAT IS LIVING WILL ONLY DISTANCE YOU FROM THE COSTUMERS
AND MAKE YOU SEEM ARROGANT
i swear, if i didnt know the ps3 was such a beast of a machine i would never buy it just because of the obvious detachment from reality going on in you PR department
P.S. and who designed the f*kin Blue Ray Remote? He really needs to get fired, that is by far the worst remote ive seen that was produced after 2000.
I mean seriously, the thing looks like it came from the 80’s or something.

Let’s see, Sony…
Incentive to pleasure myself? Sure
Incentive to buy PS3? Nope.
You have better chances of attracting customers with a price drop. Duh.

[...] Yeah, that’s the cover of Sony’s new free European gamer mag ConSoul, and yeah, that’s a girl in a bikini sitting on the can. Hat tip Three Speech. Has anyone seen a copy? Any good? The girl on the cover, by the way, comes from the new PS3 TV advertising campaign. [...]

Source? *ahem*
First Sony take my name, now you take my story. That’s my translation (word for word) and that picture is from my site.
Little credit would have been nice.

“No malice intended. Keep your hair on. Etc”
Sounds too cheeky. Not to mention that his post was deleted.
Plagerism is a crime as you would know.

Nice work on the condescending apology to consoul. You could have stopped after “No malice intended”.
