Sony Orbis specs

Rumours abound that the next Sony console will be called the Orbis, will be out in 2013 and will contain measures to stop people playing pre-owned games! It also apparently won’t offer any backwards compatibility with PS3 software and games will be locked to your PSN account. Games should look pretty tasty though with a resolution of 4096×2160 and the ability to play 3D games in 1080p – if you’re into wearing dark glasses indoors.

Sony E3 Highlights

After seeing Microsoft’s pretty successful conference and Nintendo’s fairly poor performance, what did Sony do to convince us that Sony would be the one to watch this Christmas? As expected Sony concentrated less on sales figures than Microsoft or Nintendo, after all they are still lagging behind in overall unit sales by a fair margin.

The game features 8 player co-op online and 60 in standard the standard multiplayer frag fest. Little Big Planet, the cute creator platformer really stands...

They’ve both been scrapped so teams can work on other worthwhile first-party projects. Probably a good thing.
