Playstation 3 slim and pricedrop

Huzzah! The rumors were true. Sony has announced that they will release a slimmer, cheaper version of the PS3 September 1.
Wow. That’s great. A lot of more people will buy PS3s…

It’s just a bit sad that Sony is already lagging behind with every service associated with the PS3. The online functionality is simple not nearly as good or entertaining as Microsofts Xbox Live. PSN has less games and content. PS3 developers are still not getting enough help to really push the PS3.

So, as I did smile for a short while at the very late price drop, I’m afraid it might not be enough. And while I do enjoy and respect the 360. Something tells me I just don’t want Microsoft to dominate my living room as they have, for far to long, dominated my workspace.

Mirrors Edge demo

A Mirrors Edge demo is available on PSN today and on XBLA tomorrow. Has anyone played it yet?
Mirrors Edge is interesting from many game mechanical aspects as well as the different playstyle of running away from firefights instead of engadging in them.

I’ll post my thoughts on this very different game tomorrow.
