Additional Playstation 3 Firmware 2.4 Pictures

After two years of hard work it seems like Sony’s commitment to the Playstation console is finally paying off. While some could argue that the XBox360 is already reaching the end of its product life cycle (anyone else feel that too?)*, it is clear that the consumer has spoken. The PS3 beat Microsoft’s Xbox 360 [...]
Sony’s True Goal: Connect Everything
Readers of this site may cringe upon seeing the word ‘Connect’, as it has been a word associated with a past suborganization of Sony that was considered by some as a complete management disaster. Whilst Connect had its highs and lows, Sony is looking to revitalize its definition of the word and bring every device [...]
