Video: Sony shows off PlayStation Home and Life With PlayStation services
June 27th, 2008

We’ve all heard about Sony’s strategy meeting in Tokyo yesterday (read my report here, if you’re bored), but even more interesting than the news that everything’s going to be connected in Sony’s Brave New World and movies will be streaming left and right were a couple of demo videos unleashed on the underwhelmed journos assembled at the event.

I managed to grab brief clips of both PlayStation Home and the new Life With PlayStation service, which you can see below. PS Home is nothing new, although it’s been delayed for around a year. It looks pretty standard for this sort of virtual world thing, but we’ll know more at E3 next month. Life With PS reminds me of the news and weather channels on the Wii - see for yourself (amid the gloom and camera shake - sorry!) in the second vid below.
