Hmmm, methinks the slim is closer than we all expected. It’s being reported all over the internet that many retailers are experiencing trouble sourcing new stock of PS3s…and this is all happening when sales of the hardware are currently lulling.
Well, GamesCom is coming really soon, like next week. Sony had announced that they were going to have something for us in Germany, I’m thinking they’ll finally drop this elusive beast upon us. It’s time Sony, let the cat out the bag. I just hope it’s not as ugly as the ones I’ve been seeing all over the internet.
The SCEE Press Conference at GamesCom in Colgne is set for Tuesday 18th August between 6pm and 9pm CET (that means us yanks will be watching the goings on during breakfast). We’ll just have to wait and see what Sony trots out, but our money is on the PS3 Slim, the EU and UK has needed a cheaper variant. I mean, PlayStation is fucking huge over in Europe, they can’t let Microsoft take their entire audience, can they?
I sit upon my throne as the owner/shogun of this site, WatchPlayRead. But it wasn't always so. I too have had blogspots, I've done other community blogs, I've even written professionally for other sites out there...yet none of them provided the content I had a real passion for.
It is then that I became tired of being a small cog in a big machine, and of writing about nothing but game news after game news article and the periphery that comes from such schlock, like knowing who Michael Pachter and Bobby Kotick are.
I decided to start MediaWhoreNetwork.com and ran up my post count there for about 2 years, commenting about any and everything that I wanted to. I even started a weekly podcast that I feel has come into its own.
It wasn't until earlier this year that I realized that having the word "whore" in your URL might be a bit limiting to my potential audience. I then made the website and its branding move over to WatchPlayRead.com.
