Major congrats to Naughty Dog for the million+ beta players. It’s a blast so far. I’m grateful for the Pixeljunk Shooter 2 patch, makes the game that much more enjoyable. The Bioshock Infinite video blew me away. Love this world that Ken Levine has created. Looking forward to Limbo.
I’m playing: UNCHARTED 3: Drake’s Deception Multiplayer Beta, and Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones
Nice recap sid :)

Im playing: inFamous 2 Evil Karma,Uncharted 3 MP,LA Noire trophy hunting,Crysis 2,Sport champions
im watching: Darksydephil Videos (hes awesome!) The closer and some random chessy movies i find
im reading: the july issue of playstation the magazine
I am so glad I held off on the free ps plus welcome back cause now I can get Dead Space Extraction and Borderlands for really cheap and awesome prices! So Stoked for the weeks to come!!! Also I love the uncharted 3 beta. WAY TO GO NAUGHTY DOG!!!!
Can you please hit up Namco-Bandai to have them to be on this Blog to talk about Dark Souls? Pretty please? I mean, you have literally fans everywhere who loves Demon’s Souls and we would love to know more about Dark Souls! Thanx.
I was watching the video and all I could think of was “Wow, that looks so awful!” And then I realized I needed to click the hd button………………………………………………………….. All better.
Hey Sid, will the PlayStation Blog announce what games Sony will be showing at Comic-Con? I’m eager to know since I’ll be going? Also, Google+ is pretty cool huh?
Slow pace? Hah! My birthday’s the 14th! Less of a slow pace for me…
$15 Borderlands? Full of much win.
LBP2 DLC FTW!
I’m playing: Alice Madness Returns, Uncharted 3 Beta
I’m watching: The Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family. Ssssh! The Goblet of Fire’s on!
I’m reading: I just don’t know anymore.
hope there will be some more PS vita news because i’d love to get my hands on that powerhouse as soon as possible. and nice update the only one today but it was interesting. it was filled with games i like
I watched that BioShock Infinite gameplay demo… kind of wish I didn’t, but I couldn’t hold back. I was blown away after the first 5 minutes but I had to stop it there! Cannot wait for this one to come out so my Move controller can get some more use :)
I’m playing: Beyond Good and Evil HD which I’m just about to beat! After many years of trying to track down a copy (well not that well obviously), there’s no better way to experience this than in HD. The game is surprisingly beautiful and its style translates well for HD owners. PixelJunk Shooter 2 also took up some time, got 100% in the campaign mode. Worked on some more leaderboard scores and reclaimed my #5 spot! :D
I’m watching: Haven’t started yet but Breaking Bad season 3 will be watched soon so I can continue with season 4 once it starts up on TV.
Take me home to paradise city where the grass is green and the girls are pretty! Yeah, Guns & Roses FTW! Now this song is stuck in my head, thanks to Criterion lol.
sometimes I wish gamestop wasn’t around, but then again it has been so useful. however I wish I still had arkham asylum to play through again. Sid is enjoying this one back to back weeks! it’s a great one..
Bioshock Infinite looks incredible, can’t wait to play it.
But what I’m really looking forward to right now is Catherine. Is it true we get a demo this tuesday?
this has to be so copy and past because i seen the same gameplay footage on gametrailers tv but 360 gameplay. and it was the same gameplay footage… hmmm someone is sneaky sneaaky sneakyy…
Playing fancy pants adventures!!! Everybody should be. I’m watching ip man 2 and bleach on netflix. i”m reading nothing. Well I read a magazine on the crapper every now and then if that counts.I hope megamixer gets his ps3 fixed or gets a new one soon because the ps blog will get boring without him. He always keeps it real. Can’t wait until tuesday. uprising and DS extraction are mine!!
an issue i wanted to discuss is the qriocity music unlimited service.why is canada the only country that doesnt get it?i checked on my psp and the canada flag was NOT in the options.now i find this very sad.there are A LOT of ps3 users in canada,i can guarantee you that sony.so please fix this issue,i was even considering paying for the service.
Hi, Sid: I’m playing both InFamous 2 & Assassin’s Creed 1–wish it had trophy support, oh well. I’m downloading the Conan O’Brian doc right now–8 bucks for a rental is pretty steep but I am Team CoCo.
I’m re-reading the entire Harry Potter series before the last movie comes out. And I love reading the blog every day–good for laughs and information, can’t beat that.
Please guys treat the PS3 with respect, the game is looking great so far. I’m really tired of horrible ports to our console and I’m confident I’m not the only one. I already saw a great difference in the lighting comparing it with the 360 version and that difference is slightly in favor to the other console. Maybe the source of light is shifted in the PS3 but please treat our version carefully. We know the tech of the PS3 can be tedious for some devs but people like rocksteady, Bioware and some other third parties have done a great job. Our exclusives speak from themselves, the PS3 can handle preasure. If you deliver I will buy it no doubt. The game is looking amazing. I hope this message is read by a dev since I know Sid is not one of them…^___^.
I forgot the “favorite news” question. I learned the new Harry Potter game has Move support so I immediately ordered the Move bundle, the navigation controller, and many related accessories. I look forward to using Move also in U3, maybe Killzone 3 if it ever drops in price, Sorcery if it ever becomes more than a figment of imagination, Medieval Moves if it gets good reviews….
Also, you must be noticing all the generic avatars? You can’t be assuming there are this many dullards on the blog? I’ve tried logging out, changing my avatar, to no avail.
Honestly, you guys are doing an incredible job with this Beta let alone the game over all. I have been playing ps3 since day one (years) and have always stuck to sporting games like Madden , NCAA etc. This game is the second shooter based game outside of Red Dead that has truly got me hooked! One thing you may want to consider since your entertaining recommendations is, I like how you can creep up on someone , snap their back and twist their neck. What would be so off the charts would be if you could put them in a sleeper, hold in that position for a few seconds then drag them into holding. Somewhere where they MUST be rescued by a team mate in order to resume play..
When Back To The Future The Game Episode 5 gonna be out? It’s been a month now! I thought it was supposed to be released with the iPad at the same time? What happened to the game? Did Telltale games forgot to put it on the PSN or something? Cause I have been waiting very patiently for the game to come out, but it didn’t!
Can I still get the playstation plus offer. Is it still avalible? thanks.
It is! Until 7/11. Here’s where to get it: http://us.playstation.com/psn/playstation-plus/
hey when are we going to see jak and daxter come to the ps3
Great end of the week for PlayStation.
