The updated PS3 model with a 80 Gigabyte hard disk and a Dualshock 3 controller is being released Friday 22nd August at £299.99. This model doesn’t feature the backwards compatibility or memory card readers found in the previous 60GB model, but an extra 20 gigs is probably more useful than the ability to play old PS2 games.

2K Sports have released some nice looking screenshots ahead of their upcoming Ice Hockey game NHL 2K9 for Wii. Once again Wii owners get to play the game in a totally different way to owners of the other three consoles; you’ll be flicking the Wii Remote to shoot, using the Nunchuck & Wiimote to battle a rival when the fights break out and have greater control in goal. The NHL 2K9 release date is September 9th, exactly the same day as NHL 09 from EA Sports – now that’s what we like to see, some serious competition.

We just wanted to throw out a quick reminder for Mario Super Sluggers this month. If you enjoyed the Wii Sports Baseball but now want to progress onto a game which lets you control more of the game than the just the batting and pitching, then it’s time to progress onto Mario Super Sluggers Wii. Previous Mario Sports fans will be able to the usual bunch of Nintendo characters (Mario, Luigi, Peach, Bowser and Wario etc) but players new to Wii may want to carry on using their Mii avatar from Wii Sports or Wii Fit and the good news...
