The PlayStation blog Three Speech featured a new post which shows that Sony chiefs has confirmed that the PS3 Home service will have 18+ areas for trailers and casinos.
The 18+ areas will include a roon to watch 18+ rates trailers for games, movies, etc. They want to have the power basically to try and protect the rooms. The luxury of this though is that if they can make the room 18+ they will be able to have these types of casinos and such and not have to worry about getting in trouble for it.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
that would actually be really cool, to add money to a bank account, play in the casino.. if you win, that money can be used in the play station store to buy games and things, this could be an excellent idea.
about the texas holdem poker game, if they can be linked to real money, yah it could be a virtual gambling machine.
PS3 can have a casino and Xbox can stick to their crappy UNO game! (I do have an xbox 360 btw)
you cant play for real money. I REPEAT you cant play for real money!
but and this is a big but
maybe you can play for something free. Maybe they can make you a PS3 world poker tour hat/jacket that you can wear around Home? I do like the idea of that. If you had a casino with 18 and over thats a winner. I would love to sit a table with other ppl and talk sh!t while i try and take all there chips and make them mine.
I wont play online anything for money but i will play just for fun and to talk with the other ppl at the table.
sounds cool if they can do it and keep it free
Home is shaping up to be a really great service, i can't wait for all the studios to get involved some already are and the general public which will have creation tools as well so sweet!
i'm looking forward to TGS so much...
