All the racing fans out there can look forward to a little portable racing fun this holiday season when Disney Interactive’s Split/Second is released on Sony’s PSP. So look forward to some of the most intense havoc-wreaking racers on the consoles to make its way to the handhelds, but how is the transition going to affect this blockbuster HD title? According to developers not so much, but we are realistic, right? What we do know is that there is no planned online multiplayer in the future of this handheld. Instead it is being replaced by a significantly less impressive 4-player ad-hoc feature. But then again, being able to control a car careening down a city street, avoiding obstacles, and destroying fellow racers in the back seat of your own car sounds pretty good too.

Once you go black…you go white?
The Japanese are always one step ahead when it comes to optimizing the PS3. So it should come as no surprise when I tell you that they will be the first to get the PS3 in its newest configuration. On July 29th, Japan will officially stop selling the 120 GB and 250 GB PS3 systems and begin selling their new 160 GB and 320 GB units. These new units will be marketed in two color schemes, the current black color and what they are calling “classic white”.
Currently the price point for this system has been set at such that “the 160GB model will cost ¥29,980 (USD$340), while the 320GB version will retail for ¥34,980 (USD$400).” Will this new color and HDD be gracing the shores of North America and Europe anytime soon? Honestly your guess is as good as mine but all in all Sony will be the ones with the last word in the matter.
