Sony at the movies - Image 1They may be closing their PlayStation outlet in the Metreon Center in San Francisco, but Sony is still pushing forward to promote its brands. This week, Sony will be all over a 14-screen cinema complex at The Oaks shopping center in LA, featuring of course, nothing but Sony and PlayStation goodness.

This cinema complex, owned by Muvico Entertainment, will use Sony's 4K SXRD digital projectors, which will be promoted on-screen, the same way Dolby and THX are shown. Across the lobby and concession stands, customers will be looking at sleek Sony LCD TVs for menus and movie listings. And of course, with this theater equipped with all sorts of Sony hardware, it wouldn't be complete without a digital playroom, with PS3s available for gaming.

The cinema also offers valet parking and allows customers to bring in food, beverages, and even booze into their reserved seating in the Premier section, where wide seat cost US$ 20 each. Needless to say, both Sony and Muvico are aiming for a high-end market.

Actually it's not "in" LA (Los Angeles) it's in Thousand Oaks, Ventura County. Which is about 45 mins North of Los Angeles.

Like he said, The Oaks is not in Los Angeles, but north of it in the city of Thousand Oaks, in Ventura County.



On a side note I will have to see this when it's done as I live in Ventura County

It's a generally good idea, but maybe for a gaming room they should add something like a 360 or Wii. For me PS3 gaming is about long-winded single player adventures, 360 for online multiplayers and FPS and Wii for local multiplayer.



Akin to playing golf using a toothpick.
