Free Realms first. Looks a bit like a cross between The Sims and a nightmare I once had.
17:13:45 -
We're going to take a quick look at the three games, apparently. Montage time!
17:13:26 -
"New revenue streams as a result," says Dave. Ah, that's why he's excited.
17:13:19 -
For the first time, SCE will be publishing and distributing SOE's PlayStation games, including the distribution of their PC versions. Dave is a lot more excited about this than most people in the room, I'd wager.
17:13:00 -
SOE is joining SCE with three titles: The Agency, DC Universe Online, and Free Realms - as we knew.
17:12:36 -
And that's it for PSP 3000 - he's on about Sony Online Entertainment now.
17:12:26 -
Slim and Lite will be available as a standalone product for EUR 169, for "a limited period of time".
17:11:59 -
There will be eight bundles, all at EUR 199: FIFA, Harry Potter, Buzz and Go!Communications bundles will all be on offer.
17:11:31 -
PSP 3000 will launch on 15th October in EMEA territories. It will cost EUR 199.
17:11:03 -
Slim and Lite is still important, though.
17:10:50 -
As long as you're in a Wi-Fi area you'll be able to use Skype and Go!Messenger to contact people.
17:10:29 -
Plus PSP 3000 will include a built-in microphone - to help establish PSP as "a viable communication device".
17:10:18 -
"It's really impressive," says Dave.
17:10:06 -
The result is crisper colours with more intensity and less glare when you're out in natural light, apparently.
17:09:41 -
"We will be enhancing the LCD screen. What this actually means is we have taken the already high quality screen and increased the intensity and number of colours it can display."
17:09:08 -
"A couple of added features", but as slim and light as the Slim and Lite.
17:08:41 -
There's a pic on screen and Dave is holding one. It's Piano Black like the others. Smoother edges and corners.
17:08:15 -
It's a new iteration of PSP - the PSP 3000.
