    Anywhere, Any­device Gaming Siddharth Singh, Soh Chor Kiong Ricky, Adrian David Cheok Human Interface Technology Laboratory Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering National University of Singapore, Singapore fg0202382,eng00673,[email protected] ABSTRACT This poster describes a multi-player networked Pong game that can be played in real-time on mobile devices and sta- tionary PCs. Through this game we intend to explore the realm of the next generation of games which, we believe, will incorporate elements of mobility, multiple connectiv- ity methods and playability on different types of devices. The system comprises the Sony-Ericsson P800 phone, a cen- tral game server, and personal computers. The client-server model has been used so that all interaction is done through the game server. The server can host multiple games at the same time. Each game has two players and a number of spectators who can view the game. The spectators can in- teract with each other using text messages. The Pong game is not the end to itself. This work is the core of an ongo- ing research project on multiple platform, multiple player mobile entertainment.

    Chapter 9 FORENSIC ANALYSIS OF THE SONY PLAYSTATION PORTABLE Scott Conrad, Carlos Rodriguez, Chris Marberry and Philip Craiger Abstract The Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) is a popular portable gaming device with features such as wireless Internet access and image, music and movie playback. As with most systems built around a processor and storage, the PSP can be used for purposes other than it was originally intended – legal as well as illegal. This paper discusses the features of the PSP browser and suggests best practices for extracting digital evidence. Keywords: Sony PlayStation Portable, forensic analysis 1. Introduction The Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) is a popular portable video game system that has additional multimedia and Internet-related capa- bilities. Originally released in 2004, the PSP features a 4.3” widescreen LCD with 480×272 pixel resolution. It comes with a dual core 222 MHz R4000 CPU, 32 MB RAM and 4 MB of embedded DRAM, which holds the operating system [6]. The PSP uses a proprietary Universal Me- dia Disk (UMD) as its primary read-only storage media for games and movies. The device also features 802.11b Wi-Fi connectivity for multi- player games and utilizes a Pro Duo memory stick for secondary storage. In September 2007, Sony released a new version of the PSP that is 33% lighter and 19% thinner, appropriately dubbed the PSP Slim & Lite. The Slim & Lite version caches UMD data in memory to decrease game loading time and provides additional features such as a brighter screen, composite TV output, charging via USB and double the onboard RAM (64 MB) [8].

  • The Distribution and Marketing of the Sony Playstation
    Bringing the Sony Playstation to Japan: A Case of Business Fitting the Technology Zhong-Min Hu SUID: 04836359 STS 145 Case History March 16, 2003 A Decisive Day in Console History: December 3, 1994 will be remembered as a decisive day in the history of console gaming. It was on this day that Ken Kutaragi’s technological brainchild, the Sony Playstation, shown below in Figure 1, stormed Japan, selling 100,000 of its initial 300,000 units in a single day. Hundreds of Japanese lined outside game stores everywhere in Japan, gobbling up the precious machines with no attention given to their price. (Asakura 52) By 1998, the Playstation had sold more than 40 million units worldwide. (Lowood) It effectively dethroned the Nintendo kingdom, at one point prompting Nintendo’s proud patriarch, Hiroshi Yamauchi to admit, “Sony is dominating the market, and Nintendo has fallen behind in the race. When I go to Akihabara, I get the Figure 1: More than one third of the initial 300,000 Playstation units were sold in the first day alone. impression that the Nintendo 64 is going to be obliterated.” (Asakura 139) The story behind the rise of the Playstation phoenix from the ashes of a humiliating rejection at the hands of Nintendo is indeed complex. To be sure, the technology brought to life by Kutaragi was historically unprecedented in that the Playstation outperformed every console that had previously existed. And it is true that all successes begin with good technology, but the Playstation had the added advantage of a business model that was well suited to the technology.

Chapter 5 FORENSIC ANALYSIS OF A PLAYSTATION 3 CONSOLE Scott Conrad, Greg Dorn and Philip Craiger Abstract The Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) is a powerful gaming console that sup- ports Internet-related activities, local file storage and the playing of Blu-ray movies. The PS3 also allows users to partition and install a secondary operating system on the hard drive. This “desktop-like” func- tionality along with the encryption of the primary hard drive containing the gaming software raises significant issues related to the forensic anal- ysis of PS3 systems. This paper discusses the PS3 architecture and behavior, and provides recommendations for conducting forensic inves- tigations of PS3 systems. Keywords: Sony PlayStation 3, gaming console, forensic analysis 1. Introduction The Sony PlayStation 3 (PS3) hit the Japanese and North American retail markets in November 2006 (March 2007 in Europe) [13].

  • ACCESSORIES for PLAYSTATION®3 BECOME AVAILABLE Wireless Controller (SIXAXIS™), Memory Card Adaptor and BD Remote Control
    ACCESSORIES FOR PLAYSTATION®3 BECOME AVAILABLE Wireless Controller (SIXAXIS™), Memory Card Adaptor and BD Remote Control Tokyo, October 3, 2006 – Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) today announced that Wireless Controller (SIXAXIS™) and Memory Card Adaptor would become available simultaneously with the launch of PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3) computer entertainment system on November 11th, 2006, in Japan, at a recommended retail price of 5,000 yen (tax included) and 1,500 yen (tax included) respectively. BD Remote Control will also become available on December 7th 2006, at a recommended retail price of 3,600 yen (tax included). Wireless Controller (SIXAXIS) for PS3 employs a high-precision, highly sensitive six-axis sensing system, which detects natural and intuitive movements of hands for real-time interactive play. With the adoption of Bluetooth® wireless technology, it allows up to 7 players to play at the same time, without having to attach any other external device such as a multitap. In addition, by simply plugging a USB cable to the controller, users can seamlessly switch from wireless to wired connection and automatically charge its battery while the controller is in use. Controller battery lasts up to 30 hours when fully charged *1). The new Memory Card Adaptor enables users to transfer data saved on Memory Cards for PlayStation® and PlayStation®2 onto the hard disk drive of PS3. To transfer data, users need to simply insert their Memory Cards to the Memory Card Adaptor connected to PS3 via a USB port. In December, BD Remote Control will also become available, which enables users to easily operate movies and music content on BD (Blu-ray Disc) and DVD on PS3.

  • The Dreamcast, Console of the Avant-Garde
    Loading… The Journal of the Canadian Game Studies Association Vol 6(9): 82-99 http://loading.gamestudies.ca The Dreamcast, Console of the Avant-Garde Nick Montfort Mia Consalvo Massachusetts Institute of Technology Concordia University [email protected] [email protected] Abstract We argue that the Dreamcast hosted a remarkable amount of videogame development that went beyond the odd and unusual and is interesting when considered as avant-garde. After characterizing the avant-garde, we investigate reasons that Sega's position within the industry and their policies may have facilitated development that expressed itself in this way and was received by gamers using terms that are associated with avant-garde work. We describe five Dreamcast games (Jet Grind Radio, Space Channel 5, Rez, Seaman, and SGGG) and explain how the advances made by these industrially productions are related to the 20th century avant- garde's lesser advances in the arts. We conclude by considering the contributions to gaming that were made on the Dreamcast and the areas of inquiry that remain to be explored by console videogame developers today. Author Keywords Aesthetics; art; avant-garde; commerce; console games; Dreamcast; game studios; platforms; politics; Sega; Tetsuya Mizuguchi Introduction A platform can facilitate new types of videogame development and can expand the concept of videogaming. The Dreamcast, however brief its commercial life, was a platform that allowed for such work to happen and that accomplished this. It is not just that there were a large number of weird or unusual games developed during the short commercial life of this platform. We argue, rather, that avant-garde videogame development happened on the Dreamcast, even though this development occurred in industrial rather than "indie" or art contexts.

  • SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT JAPAN LAUNCHES PLAYSTATION®2 in a NEW COLOR Th Playstation®2 “Ceramic White” to Become Available on May 26 in Japan
    SONY COMPUTER ENTERTAINMENT JAPAN LAUNCHES PLAYSTATION®2 IN A NEW COLOR th PlayStation®2 “Ceramic White” to Become Available on May 26 in Japan Tokyo, May 9, 2005 – Sony Computer Entertainment Japan (SCEJ), a division of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCEI) responsible for business operations in Japan, announced today that PlayStation®2 will become available in a new color, “Ceramic White”, beginning Thursday, May 26th 2005, at an open price. Given the numerous requests and strong popularity of the color “Ceramic White” in Japan, SCEJ decided to launch PlayStation 2 in this color. The new hardcover size PlayStation 2 will now become available at a stylish color making it a fashionable item to enjoy coordination with interior decorations and audio-visual products. Since the release of the new slim line model (in “Charcoal Black” color) in November 2004, PlayStation 2 has enjoyed strong sales with active demand from first time buyers as well as repurchasing users, and with this, it has reached cumulative shipments of 20 million units in Japan (including Asia) as of end of March this year. This remarkable achievement of 20 million units comes within a little more than 5 years since PlayStation 2 was made available for the first time in March 2000, which is approximately 3 years faster than the original PlayStation®, launched in 1994. Software shipments also hit an all-time record of 42 million units in fiscal year 2004, indicating that the PlayStation platform is still growing strong. -more- 1/3 2-2-2-2 SCEJ Launches PlayStation 2 in a New Color “Ceramic White” for the new PlayStation 2 will become available as a standard color along with the existing “Charcoal Black”.
