    Joystiq are going PS crazy today as the embargos break for a tonne of games. We already know about Uncharted 2, but they have previews of the new Pixeljunk, MAG, infamous and more:

    http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/29/joystiq-hands-on-mag/
    http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/29/joystiq-hands-on-pixeljunk-1-4/
    http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/29/joystiq-hands-on-white-knight-chronicles/

    Motorstom: Arctic Edge and plenty more to come.

    How come GiantBomb weren't at the Sony Press Day thing malarky. Many believe that in giving the press access to all this content BEFORE E3 they're readying journo time for more E3 announcements.

    But that's just speculation of course.

    Pixeljunk and MAG sound cool.

    Wow nice closing statement for MAG


    "From a personal perspective, I've got to say that I came away impressed. I'm a long-time Battlefieldplayer and love first-person shooters as a whole, and MAG nailed it in all the right places for a competitive shooter. A solid framerate ("at least 30fps at all times"), no lag, responsive controls, a great command structure, and a persistent world where your actions contribute to your faction's ultimate goal of ruling the world, makes for what could be the top shooter of the year, on any console. Modern Warfare 2, I hope you're listening -- this is the one to beat."

    Looking pretty sweet -nice find sammy

    I like the idea of unlocking command features as you rank up. I had a similar idea for my dream version of SW battlefront III.

    I dunno why people are freaking out about download only. I already use my PSP without UMDs -- all the new releases have hit the European store and I've just downloaded them to my PSP. I like the idea of having my whole PSP library stored on my machine.
