    PlayTV, a peripheral and software package that will allow PS3 to receive and record digital TV broadcasts, will launch in UK in September, confirms Sony.

    Granted, that's hardly pocket change, but it is 30 quid less than the £100 price tag that had been predicted.

    PlayTV uses the PS3's hard drive to store TV broadcasts, allowing you to record entire programs for playback later, or even pause live TV while you nip off to cook some toast. Although, if you've only got a 40GB PS3 you may need to think about expanding that baby.

    An exact day of release is yet to be confirmed. ...

    Apple's new iPhone 3G has hit the 3 million sold mark, according to an analyst, following news from the company that 60 million programmes have been downloaded from its App Store.

    The iPhone 3G sold 1 million units in its first weekend and now, according to analyst Michael Cote of the Cote Collaborative, it has reached the 3 million sold milestone only a month since its launch.

    "They are seeing unprecedented demand," Cote told CNN. "The demand is so strong it may impact or delay the new countries coming on."

    This news came as Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple, used the first month anniversary of the iPhone 3G and the App Store to detail its success. More than 60 million programmes have been downloaded for the iPhone and iPod touch, which accounts for roughly 2 million downloads per day.

    The revenue from those applications came to about USD 30 million - 70 per cent of which went to the developers, while Apple took a 30 per cent cut. It was also revealed that if the sales keep up at the current rate Apple will make at least USD 360 million a year.

    "This thing's going to crest a half a billion, soon," Jobs told the Wall Street Journal. "Who knows, maybe it will be a USD 1 billion marketplace at some point in time... I've never seen anything like this in my career for software." ...

    Neat hat on a clever noggin news now, with EA announcing Henry Hatsworth in the Puzzling Adventure (working title), a platformer/puzzler for the Nintendo DS. Developed by an EA Tiburon team under the publisher's Casual Entertainment label, Hatsworth hopes to fuse the "action of an adventure game with the challenge of a puzzle game," with players switching between "action-platform" screens and "the increasingly challenging puzzle world."

    EA promises over 30 levels and five "exotic" worlds for the geriatric genius to explore, complete with power ups, enemies and "outrageous world-ending bosses." The game's executive producer, Scott Walker, describes it as "an incredibly unique game" that you "won't want to put down" once it ships in 2009 -- which either means it's very good, or it has some sort of explosive detonator strapped to the back of the cartridge. ...

    Jonathan Blow, creator of the highly-praised Xbox Live Arcade puzzler Braid, has said that the title may make it to PS3 after the Xbox exclusivity deal has passed.

    "It's a limited exclusive so if I were to try to make a PS3 or WiiWare version of the game I would have to wait a little bit," he said, explaining that he was fully focused on the PC version.

    "PS3 might happen in the future. What's going to definitely happen this year is a PC release. The only reason that's not out right now is because I wanted to focus on one platform at a time," Blow added.

    Wii owners, however, have no chance. "WiiWare is not going to happen for this game ... Braid is too big of a game to be downloaded on WiiWare and stored on someone's Wii," he told Game Focus, which makes sense considering the game weighs in at 144MB.

    On another note, Braid has scored an overall 92 percent on both Metacritic and Gamerankings, making it the highest-rated XBLA game of all time, and the tenth highest rated 360 game. That's pretty good going. ...

    Wii Fit has reclaimed the top spot in the UK all-formats chart, bending past last week's winner, Soulcalibur IV, at two.

    Following them are faces so familiar we suggest they form a family: Mario Kart Wii at three, Big Beach Sports at four, and Wii Play at five.

    Store promotions and big trucks with posters on helped Guitar Hero III take six and Guitar Hero: On Tour occupy seven.

    Then came Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, although they're not - the title is misleading. Wall-E, the speechless robot, fell to nine as movie popularity dwindled, and the chart was rounded out by Brain Training at 10.

    This week waves goodbye to Guitar Hero: Aerosmith and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 08.

    OXM must have too much time on its hands. So much so that the guys can sit around, after deadline, staring a blank lobby screens in a variety of games to see who's playing what and more importantly who's not playing what. Surely everyone can't be playing Call of Duty 4 and Halo 3.

    The website asks what happens to the lesser known games as time marches on and the smaller games are squeezed off the shelves.

    Do the communities live on? Do the hardcore refuse to let go? Do newcomers to Xbox Live wander into empty lobbies and try to figure out why nothing is working?

    Hit this link for a list of games that have deserted, empty lobbies. ...

    Wondering how to transfer money into Fable 2 from the Xbox Live Arcade "Fable 2 Pub Games" due out tomorrow? Good news then, because Lionhead's been in touch to tell Eurogamer how it works.

    When you begin one of the pub games, you pick a gambler to represent you across all of the challenges. We'll call ours "Bertie". You can stick with one of these or swap between multiple personalities, and we're told Lynch, Daphne, Maya, Mongo and Poe will be some of the faces on offer.

    When you buy Fable 2 in October, create a hero - we'll call ours "Clert" - and then find a Gamesmaster either in a tavern or wandering wistfully down a road. Start playing whichever game variation the Gamesmaster offers, and you will be given the option to merge your hero ("Clert") with your gambler ("Bertie").

    Once merged, "BertieClert" will gain access to all the Live Arcade gambling funds you previously accrued. But be warned, "BertieClert" cannot be undone, just like a chemical reaction.

    Now, if you decide to go back to the Live Arcade pub games, you will play as "BertieClert", your hero from Fable II, who gambles directly using in-game gold. Clever.

    The Live Arcade pub games also let you merge several gamblers together, which can be combined with any of your heroes from Fable 2.

    Fable 2 is due out exclusively for Xbox 360 on my birthday, 24th October. ...

    Proper Games CEO Paddy Sinclair, who's company announced a key deal with Capcom for downloadable title Flock! at E3, has admitted to GamesIndustry.biz that he has "mixed emotions" about Microsoft's title cull for Xbox Live Arcade.

    Sinclair, formerly at Visual Science before establishing Dundee-based Proper Games in 2006, feels that while he's worried that his company's title "could just get lost in the morass of arcade conversions", he also sympathises with companies for whom those games that get cut are their "bread-and-butter...trickle of income".

    "Well, it's with mixed emotions really," he said of Microsoft's plans. "At the moment there is a little bit too much junk on there - that's not to denigrate the guys who have stuff there, but a way to tier and rate content would be nice.

    "Obviously as we're coming to Xbox Live for the first time, it would be nice to be prominent, and we could just get lost in the morass of arcade conversions... So to a certain extent I'm behind the concept of delisting games that aren't selling, aren't well-received, but I think it's a combination of the two.

    "But it's also the bread-and-butter for those companies - it may not be huge sales, but that thousand or so per month they are selling is a trickle of income, and it's just going to get sliced off...

    "Flat-out delisting perhaps isn't the solution - it's a step in the right direction - but hopefully they'll come back and have a facility whereby if it's been on Xbox Live Arcade, you can always pick it up from somewhere.

    "That's what I'd like to see, but I'd also like to see a way of properly categorising games - what's the most-downloaded game at the moment? What's been most bought?"

    Flock! was announced to acclaim at E3 this year, and is scheduled for release at the end of 2008 or the beginning of 2009 for the XBLA, PlayStation Network and WiiWare platforms.

    The full GamesIndustry.biz interview with Paddy Sinclair is available now. ...

    If those pesky Achievements for the game are to be believed, Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise will support four player online co-op. 360sync.com lists all the "bleep bloops" for the upcoming candy-filled animal simulator and one 10-point achievement, named "Full House," comes with with the description: Play 4 Player Online Co-op for 1 hour.
