So it would appear that the long and bloody war between the next-generation of high definition DVD formats is coming to a close, with word on the grapevine suggesting that the HD DVD commander-in-chief Toshiba is ready to surrender. While there will be the inevitable continuation of small...

Sony Computer Entertainment Europe has announced the availability of the latest system software for the PlayStation 3, finally taking it into V2.00 territory. To be honest it isn't that great a leap forward, although there is one nice new feature: the ability to turn a PS3 system on and off...

Six weeks ago I wrote that video game stocks were going to be a good play for the duration of 2007 - - and probably well into 2008. As I said at the time, anyone with a 12-year-old boy in the house recognizes the familiar hoots and hollers from the den or playroom, when the kids fire up the Wii...

Sony has always had a love for specific formats, particularly ones cooked up by its developers. Can we say Betamax? Now it looks like another Sony-backed format is taking a long ride into the sunset and it will certainly be of no loss to most techies. Sony, in unveiling a bunch of new digital...

The DVD format war continues, with neither side determined to give up. So who seems to be winning now? Well, this article seems to claim that Blu-ray is winning, and will soon displace HD-DVD, as were a number of other articles I read in the last few days on the internet. This particular quote...

Well, it seems like a new PSP redesign is on the way, which is supposed to make Sony's handheld portable gaming device smaller, lighter, and more attractive. So... do I think that the PSP needs a redesign? A definite "yes". It has a massive screen, a plus for the console. However, I think this is...

If you didn't think that Sony was taking this bitter DVD format war seriously, you can be almost sure of it now. According to PC World, Sony is planning a new Blu-Ray player that would "cost $400 less than current models." I laugh at the irony of it. Sony's already getting worried that they might...
