Selling the production does make sense I guess, but I wish they had done this sooner if it meant getting exclusives such as Resident Evil, GTA & Devil May Cry.

At one time these were all slated for PS3 only release which would have assured Sony success. Its gone the other way now in that not only are all the hot games multiplatform, but they are also appearing earlier on rival systems. Sony, use this money to put you back in the frame before its too late.

@Terry

Take a look here:

Sony will still be involved in the development of the cell, but not the production from what I gather. Should help them claw back some funds hopefully.

Hey ThreeSpeech, any chance you could ask SCEE why we’re waiting half a year longer than the US and Japan to receive the Dual Shock 3?
Thanks. Â¬Â¬

[...] In other MGS4 news, it has been revealed that the game will include an online starter pack. It seems this pack is something of a free taster in preparation for Metal Gear Online. Further details are yet to be made clear, so it’s safe to just say that Guns of the Patriots will have some online functionality, while Metal Gear Online will remain a seperate title. [...]

@ Christian - thats true, according to IGN. Hopefully we’ll find out more tomorrow from the keynote with Kaz Hirai.

@ Caleb - its not a “demo”, more of the basic thing. They haven’t actually announced how they intend to handle the release… for all we know they might be planning to make the online component downloadable.

That sucks that you have to buy two games to get the full experience. I guess a MP demo is a nice bone thrown to us…. but really… the SP and MP should all be on one disc.

At the moment worried less about the PSN store and more about the future of Playstation as an actual brand - considering Sony are selling off Cell production plants to the highest bidder….doesn’t bode well
