Mark And Isabelle Discuss Plans For The Future

Very nice to see videos produced by the EU Blogteam. Thanks for all the great work you and the rest of the team is putting into this.

I second that too.. you guys does a hella good job. thanx and keep it up. reply lots to your blog entries and everyones happy james

Hey marketing team, try bringing more full downloadable titles to PSN. Older multiplat games like Assassin’s Creed or games like Everybody’s Golf at a sensible price point. Good for gamers, publishers and Sony.

Great to see you guys doing so much for the blog and us. Thanks guys!

I can’t decide which PS Blog team is cuter – James + Jem or Jeff + Chris…

Interesting interview. Thanks a lot James

Great to see and hear .

Can i have your T-Shirt please !!

3.0 has cross game chat yes or no ?

Thats what wee all want to know !!

Come on dude make a name for yourself , you,ll be loved by the bloggers dude.

welldone anyway.

Will the BBC content or the other tv channels that they talked about in the press conf be available all over europe.?

@ Kap post #6

The T-shirts mine ive ask for it hands off.

Is there something like the iPlayer of BBC for the German Market?

Why can´t you read comics on the PS3? I think it would be great. Comics will be cheaper because there is no printing or shipping. It would be very nice to just sit on the couch or in the bed and go to some new Marvel. – But as far as i understand it this Service would be US only for now anyway?

I heard in several places that iPlayer is just a link to the website and not an actual app.

Can you confirm this James? Or ask Isabelle.

Nice interview. Jigabytes FTW!

Oh and yeah, do you guys ever plan to release cross game chat? Even a corporate brushoff answer will suffice! We can at least have hope!

I would like to hear why the marketing is so bad for PS3 right now. I barely see anything that is related to PS3. When a big Ip is released like Killzone 2 I did not see one commercial or anything that caught my interest. Now whit an Price tag at 299 euro it is mass market point. But ppl don´t know what games should be bought because of the really poor marketing. So what do this two SCEE marketing employees have to say about this?

Plz ask the marketing folk WHY there is no presence at all in terms of sony ads when amazing games like killzone2,LBP etc are being made for the system… I really hope they get their act together this christmas.

One question, Whats a Jigabye?
Nice interview
Can we expect more today? Or is that it for today?

I don’t think it can be overstated how great it is to see our own blog team making their own interviews, rather than reposts of the US’ stuff. Keep it up, James and Jem!

Video-on-demand for ALL of Europe???

Good interview, though it seems you are skirting some of peoples more pressing questions. Interesting none the less.

I’m still waiting to know if movies will be available in their original language with subtitles, or if we’ll be restricted to dubbed version in our country’s language.

That’s what will make or break the video store for me. I can’t stand dubbed movies and wouldn’t rent/purchase any, so I’d really love an answer on that.
Get me original-language films, and you have my money.

I have some advice.

GET RID OF THAT BIG PINK BUTTON ON PS3 GAMES THAT RUIN THE BOX ART. (killzone 2 has it, LBP has it, Eyepet appears to have have it)

do that and Ill stop importing games from the US just because they have better looking boxes.

just like to say i was only kidding [DELETED]… didnt have to delete it J.

@7 your absolurtly right. we want word on the fact that the friendslist wasnt shown among other things in the video showcase of the firmware. James if you get word on this you’ll instantly be catapulted to number 1 position in the Blogger the PS community will idol. FOREVER!!!!

Did i say “FOREVER”?

When the French PlayStation Blog will be availble ?

@ 22 KAP i love ya man …x

Yeah why wasnt the friends list shown , come on your gonna be a top blogger if you tell us ..

Nice, I like listening to people with British accents more than those Americans!!!!

Just a few questions, when will we be getting European release dates for Uncharted 2, Ratchet and Clank and more.

Also, can you clarify if the PS3′s game boxes are going to be redesigned? It was hinted at in the re branding of the console and XMB, because EyePet has a different box over on amazon.co.uk and the Gundam slim bundle for Japan has a new cover

Another good interview, the Blog is really picking up speed now. Well done guys. Any plans for a podcast in the future?

More interviews guys, i wanna see you get so confident at interviewing it becomes a second skin !

Im loving that SCEE is actually getting more a of a face rather then just scrutany, you guys have come along way in a short time and i cant wait to see you progress further then the US blog (yeah, i said it!) since SCEE has the biggest audience you have to show your might! keep up the fantastic work!

Good to have the European team doing video interviews…Keep it up please )

One question that I would like Sony to answer: Is cross-game voice chat even on the roadmap at all?

Thanks

Guys, I don’t think the man would risk being fired from SCEE if he told us about things in the FW that Sony didn’t want us to know yet, just because we said we’d worship him for it lol

(P.S. They mightn’t actually fire people for doing that, I’m just assuming)

Not again. I really start getting angry.
“Nothing has changed from a consumers point of view”. That is not true.

The Linux/OtherOS feature is removed from the new PS3. A very disappointing move backwards.
Please reconsider this decision and open up your platform again like no competitor did before. Don’t alienate loyal supporters.

wat the hell the question we all want to know is if there will be cross game chat I don’t care if you can update your hard drive

Are you working on a mobile version of this blog similar to the one the US Blog has?

wen is cross game chat coming cause we all want to??

Will the Video Store be launching in the Republic of Ireland in November?

when the ps3 slim comes out will there still be a repair service for the original ps3

Hi,

i have another Question.

The video Store for Germany, how will it handle the usk? (rating system in germany)

Normaly the german store dont get 18+ stuff (at least you handle it wierd because Blood curse siren is the only 18 usk stuff)

So about movies with a rating of 18?

Just wanted to say it’s a great thing to see the questions most of the people post here actually being asked (and answered).
We all have the idea big companies don’t listen to consumers and I hope Sony continues to move in the opposite direction.

With that in mind, could someone explain the pricing method used in software (digitally distributed or otherwise) for the different regions of the globe?
Why do we always get the short straw on monetary conversions?

I am scarred for life after seeing Patapon sell at 20$ in US and 40€ in Portugal, and now the trend seems to be 1$ = 1€, which is awfully wrong.

Thanks for the answers and keep up

Will iPlayer via XMB allow us to view programmes in HD?

I´m spanish and I don´t speak english very well.
When the language will be selectable on this blog??

I hope CROSS GAME CHAT will launched before christmas!!! I know you are hard working!!

I meant I hope cross game chat is launch before Christmas

yes i think cross game chat would be great it would be a great addition and also so we don’t have always hear other people lol also the v 3.0 is it just for the slim PS3 ? or is it for all because im not quite sure but i guess it probably will and theres so many exclusive games to get especially uncharted 2 i cannot wait for it any longer

Hi J:
