Sony hit back at Apple and Nintendo with some amazing new gear.
Sony has just launched two amazing new products. One being the Xperia Play which is the Playstation Phone that has been knocking about for a while. It has a 4 inch touch screen with a resolution of 854x480 pixels and powered by the Bravia engine.
It has a 1Ghz processor and 512MB ram making it an extremely fast mobile. The most distinguishing feature however is the control pad that slides it with even some shoulder buttons on the back. Sweet.
However, the real noise was created for the new PSP or what Sony are calling the NGP (Next Generation Portable). It has a quad-core processor, 5 inch OLED screen (16 million colour 960x544 - amazing), twin analogue sticks, twin cameras, twin speakers, microphone,Wi-Fi and 3G and has been told to be as powerful as the PS3. Not only this, but it has a touch sensitive back as well as a touch sensitive screen, GPS, gyroscopes, accelerometers, it'll be cross platform with Android stuff, have smart card-esque games as well as being able to download games. Amazing! It apparently will be out this Christmas and rumoured to be the same price as Nintendo's 3DS - the first 3D console where you don't need glasses. Again, Sony haven't gone down the gimmick route that have proven Nintendo's success (Wii's movement, 3DS's 3D feature) but have gone through sheer power - something risky but more catered towards hardcore gamers.
