Jump into the Bandwagon!

Speculation on Sony's upcoming PS3 online service has been the talk of the town for the last few weeks. While Sony has given away very little, the industry has been discussing rumors regarding what they will offer to compete with Xbox Live's popularity.

 

From location-free capabilities between Sony's PSP and PS3 to media downloads like movies and music, Sony sounds like they are throwing everything into this.

 

The latest feature to be "announced" in an interview with Tetsuhiko Yatsuda of SOE Asia was the possibility of downloading PS3 games from this service. In an interview with Japanese site Watch Impress, Yatsuda says that games would be a lot cheaper compared to retail versions. The purpose of this feature would be yet another blow to the pirating community, and to Xbox Live.

 

Whether this would work and how this would work are subjects that are yet unknown. The idea sounds promising, and given Sony's history of battling piracy, it seems like a given. However, there is no word on wether or not this will actually see the light of day or whether it will be an Asia based service or globally.

Anywho, I doubt this will ever come into play.

They've pushed further into it... it's going to be horrible though, unless they get some console games into it.
