OLED - Image 1Samsung has revealed their plans for the future: Blu-ray is clearly winning now (with maybe five more years left in its lifetime), so they might want to focus on other technological areas in which they can win. If Sony's got the media format down pat now, Samsung will be striving to bring us competitive OLED displays in the future.

Sony casts doubt on UK PSP-3000 bundles - Image 1Looks like the UK might be a little low on Sony's priority list for the PSP-3000. It seems that the silver PSP-3000 Ratchet & Clank: Size Matters bundle, and the black PSP-3000 with 4 GB mem stick bundle may not be appearing in the UK after all. The UK will instead receive a different package, and may not even receive a standalone PSP-3000 for a few months. More details in the full article.

Previously held by Lara Croft for Tomb Raider, Dr. Kawashima now holds the crown for being the longest-staying video game on the All Formats Top 10 charts. Guess it really pays to have Nicole Kidman promote your game, eh?
