    Sounds like Sony is swinging for the fences in New York. At CES this year, Howard Stringer took the stage with Reggie Jackson to announce that the new Yankee Stadium will be pairing up with Sony to have PlayStations in every suite. While no additional details were provided based on Stringer's announcement, the partnership would more than likely follow the format of a similar attraction set up at the Washington Nationals Ballpark, which is the first of its kind.

    The Sony area at the Nationals Ballpark is set up in the park's Strike Zone, which is near the Center Field Gate. According to a Sony representative, the gaming area allows attendees to participate in contests and prizes at the ballpark, and check out retail builds of Sony games at kiosks that are in the PlayStation area. While Sony's popular The Show franchise is obviously in attendance, other Sony games are present, as the Strike Zone has a SingStar Stage where audience members can get up and perform. While it is primarily a PS3 lounge, it's entirely possible that PSP games or PS2 titles can be rotated into these areas depending on the title.

    We're trying to get additional information on exactly what and where the Sony/Yankee Stadium partnership will be located in the ballpark, so as soon as we receive that info, we'll pass it along.

    Is the $399 price tag of the 80 GB PlayStation 3 getting you down? Not to worry – the system offers you more bang for your buck than a similar Xbox 360 or Wii setup would, according to Sony.

    In a recent press release, the Sony marketing team brands the PS3 as the best deal in gaming, and blasts the Xbox 360 for being a "burden on the wallet."

    "The Xbox 360 requires additional money, multiple upgrades and additional external devices," the release reads.

    Comparing an 80GB PS3 at $399 and an Xbox 360 Arcade unit at USD $199, Sony makes the case that to upgrade the latter to include all the features of the former would cost USD $449 - $499. Comparing the two consoles' features, Sony says adding a wi-fi adapter ($100), hard drive ($100-$150) and an Xbox Live Gold membership ($50 a year) to the cost of an Xbox 360 Arcade would push its cost over $400.

    The release did not compare Sony consoles with other Microsoft SKUs, including the Xbox 360 Elite, which comes with a 120 GB hard drive for $399 and the Xbox 360 Pro unit, which features a 60 GB hard drive for $299.

    But it's not just money that you'll lose if you pick a PS3 over an Xbox 360, in Sony's estimation. In addition to your hard-earned cash, you'll also be saying goodbye to valuable living room space. Sony accuses the Xbox 360 of requiring so many add-ons that it will "add clutter to the entertainment center."

    The only unique Xbox 360 add-ons that we're aware of are the now-obsolete HD-DVD peripheral and the optional wi-fi adapter, which is about the size of a pack of gum and snaps snugly onto the back of the console. All other peripherals (controllers, cables, camera, chatpad, etc.) are similar for both Sony and Microsoft consoles.

    The Xbox 360 bore the brunt of Sony's derision, but the Nintendo Wii didn't escape a beating. According to Sony marketing folks, "the Wii's lack of enhanced features comes at the expense of a comprehensive entertainment solution." Ouch.

    What do you think about the comparative value of the three major game consoles? Is the Xbox 360 too expensive? Is the PlayStation 3 the best deal in town? Is the Wii a comprehensive entertainment solution? Let us know in the comments section.

    During Sony's Consumer Electronics Show keynote this morning, President and Group CEO Kaz Hirai gave out a whole bunch of information on what gamers could expect this year. Among those announcements was that Life With PlayStation will be getting updated. What this update will entail and when it will be coming are facts that we don't know at this point. We'll keep you updated.

    At Sony's CES 2009 keynote today, Kaz Hirai has announced that Electronic Arts will be providing some new content to Home in the form of a sports-based arena filled with minigames, update tickers and other EA Sports-centric activities and information. This addition sounds very similar to what we saw in an early demo for Home where an arcade-esque sports area housed a slew of minigames such as a batting cage, soccer shooting challenge, free-throw games and so forth.

    We're told that the release is slated for sometime this Spring, but keep your eyes peeled for more news as it rolls in.

    The Faction Elite Pack will include three new battalions (one per faction) and six new upgrades (two per faction). The new forces include the JSF 15th Special Operations, the Spetsnaz Alpha Brigade, and the Enforcer Corps Battlegroup. The Faction Elite Pack will also grant immediate access to six exclusive unit upgrades including Ceramic Armor for the Spetnaz Guard Brigade and Caseless Ammunition for The European Federation's Gunships.

    The pack will set you back 300 Microsoft Points ($3.75) and will be available for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

    While we haven't heard anything too revolutionary leap out of the confines of CES 2009, a few tidbits are beginning to emerge that might tickle PlayStation 3 owners. During a presentation at the show, Kazuo Hirai announced that MTV will be providing the PlayStation Video Store with 2,000 hours of programming. The Video Store already has a respectable amount of content to rent or purchase, but this huge chunk of video will certainly complement the shows and movies already available.

    Stay tuned for more information.

    Update: Shortly after Hirai made his announcement, an official press release came down the line detailing the aforementioned content. According to the release, the content will be hitting the video delivery service beginning in February and include such programs as The City, South Park and SpongeBob SquarePants. There is also a note that indicates that shows released in the Spring will be added to the PlayStation Store as they become available.

    Be the most popular girl in town in Drama Queens, a new Nintendo DS game announced today by Majesco Entertainment Company, an innovative provider of video games for the mass market. Whether it's bagging a big promotion or stealing another girl's boyfriend, players can choose how they claw their way to the top in this ultra dramatic virtual 3D board game.

    In Drama Queens, players assume the role of one of four girls, each with her own personality and special attributes. As their chosen character, players spin the game wheel to advance her through the 3D board game environment that offers options at every branching path. Should she further her career by working towards the big promotion, build her relationships by going shopping with girlfriends or focus on finding that one true love? As each girl moves around the board, she also earns points that can be applied towards securing "Best Friends Forever" (BFFs), boyfriends, and new outfits from the Fashion Boutique. But just like in real life, things are rarely that smooth. Landing on a Drama Space can lead to all kinds of sticky situations, like getting fired or losing a boyfriend to a competing girl. Players can also create their own drama with secret cards that let them steal boyfriends or promotions and add BFF points. Four boards range from the shopping mall to the runway and dance club, while multiplayer mode lets up to four friends play a fierce cat fight to see who is the most popular queen diva.

    Developed by Sensory Sweep, Drama Queens for Nintendo DS is expected to launch this spring. For additional information about Majesco's exciting line of products, please visit www.majescoentertainment.com. ...

    Noobey has released a new version of DSBash for the Nintendo DS, i would have posted it on release day but the download was broken but now its fixed, heres the release details:

    What is DSBash ?
    - DSBash is a Web-Browser for Bash.org , QDB.us and German-Bash.org allowing you to browse easily trough their quote-archives. Now with the third release you also can listen to your MP3’s while browsing.

    Music playback is still a bit crispy, I’m new to the music hardware and Im already uber-happy that it played ALL my .mp3’s , even the high-quality ones. I will try to get rid of the noise in later releases.

    Just as a note: Don’t play around with the config file too much, next release I will remove the configuration trough the .ini and make a config-screen inside DSBash.


    Changelog - R3
    - PALib isn’t included anymore. I just cut out the Text-Print function and optimized it a bit. It was kinda idiotic to include to whole PALib just for ONE text-function.
    - The download function now works for all pages again…
    - Now there is a loading screen that shows some plasma effect. Just a freezed screen on clicking something seemed so unhandy… You never knew if the DS is doing something.
    - The code got reorganized. When I started the application it was a small 500 lines .c file. Then it got bigger and I started to include .c files directly (I was a coding-noob ;P ). But now compiling takes ages and I decided to make multiple .c files only including headers.
    - DSBash now searches for MP3 files on your card and plays them randomly. In the configuration ini you can change the music-folder path and set if you want it to scan recursively or not.
