However, what Sony Ericsson has undeniably succeeded in doing is crafting a true gamer's phone, with brilliant controls and the promise of some amazing games -- not to mention 32-bit PlayStation titles -- on the horizon. The fact that the Xperia Play is also perfectly capable of playing touch-screen titles such as Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja means that it effectively offers the best of both worlds, making it the ideal choice if you're an Android-loving games player.
"I talk about the 5 weirdest Sony PlayStation devices. From weird business choices, to just weird in general! What devices from Sony do you think are the weirdest? Do you agree with us?" -- PlayStation Enthusiast
I think the PSP was weird in itself. I mean the tech was cool and all with the UmD, but Sony often pushes its own media with their consoles and doesn't always find success. The memory stick duo was and is expensive as hell.
I agree. What a weird idea lol. Seems like they were mainly just trying to be unique.
It's not always the device that's the weird part. Could also be the timing (PSP Go) and the lack of marketing (PSTV). Makes you really wonder what was the point of following through with releasing these things. Xperia phone could have been something special, then Sony didn't fully support it. WHY!? lol. Just weird.
Wonderbook is weird, but that easy platinum though!
I used to own a psp..first 1000 then 2000 then 3000 then after that I had a psp go and then I finally got a ps vita brand new..then lost that and the later in the year or month got a new used version of the Vita...so the journey has been really out there for me for the systems I used to own..all of them were great in there own special way..
Whether you’re hunting down the perfect phone for the hardcore gamer in your life or looking to treat yourself to an upgrade, the time has never been better. At present, there is a wealth of great options out there, especially for folks looking to play state of the art games on their smart phone. The following ten phones carry Hardcore Droid’s vaunted nod of approval for being the most hardcore Android phones for gaming on the go. If you are shopping for a phone for mobile gamer, you’ve come to the right place as any one of these bad boys is guaranteed to put a smile on the face of the most hardened, hardcore mobile gamer. If, on the other hand, you are just looking for a phone that stands out from the pack, and allows you to enjoy the best high-end mobile games in existence, you have also come to the right place as what follows is a list of the Most Hardcore Android phones of 2014.
Even as the power of mobile devices is outpacing Moore’s Law, and graphics power seems to double every year, it’s a sad fact that phones simply aren’t marketed toward gamers. Walk into a phone store and ask a rep about a phone’s CPU. If you’re lucky, they might tell you how many cores it has, but getting a real idea about a phone’s performance is going to require some independent research. Even then, not everything is equal. Chips grouped under the same family are sometimes radically different on the inside, and even a savvy shopper might be surprised to find his phone comes up short. We’re here to cut through the nonsense and give you some straight talk about which phones are best when games matter most.
For anyone using iOS, I suggest you try the stock android experience offered with the nexus 4. I used to prefer iOS but android has more customization and very recently competitive build quality.
I'm thinking of getting this in August when I'm eligible for an upgrade.
The fact that in plays Android, PS1 and emulator games is enticing.
Doest anyone have this phone yet?
I'd probably wait for a second generation Xperia play; the idea of having PSPGo-like sliding controls is very nice, but sadly it would seem (from various reviews) that the screen is subpar and, quite surprisingly for a game-focused phone, it doesn't have a dual-cored CPU, which is pretty much set to be a standard for higher end cellphones in the coming months.
It's nice to know that games will control well, it's however disappointing to know that by the end of the year, other cellphones will be packing much mroe power and running games better.
hmmm I will wait for the dual core xperia or for the ngp.
Meh...I'll switch when im not happy with my iPhone but tonights release of world of goo is not going to help.
