With demand crushing Eurogamers as the PS3 faithful tried to get one of 5,800 keys for the test.

Watch it. Sorry about the quality. VideoGames247 are apparently getting a capture card very soon, so it’ll be direct-feed all the way from there on in (Which will be better for the quality, but anyway more about this amazing game!)

The first level in the LBP Beta on PS3. Named First Steps by The Gardens.

The community of gamers has been the one that has been growing consistently and it’s even improving with time. Most of the game as well as console making companies are trying to cash the maximum out of it by introducing new and improved games as well as consoles to the gamers. It has been scientifically proved that games broaden one’s mind and gives his thinking a new dimension. Gamers all around the world exist from age ranging from 15 years to 45 years. So to promote games to the people of that range, companies like Sony, Microsoft, Atari, and Nintendo have come forward.

Sony offers Playstation, which has made a big success since the time of its launch in December, 1994. Till date, there have been three versions launched from which Playstation 3 is the latest one. In an attempt to promote their console, Sony has been working on many projects like Playstation Home, Playstation Life. Playstation Home provides the Playstation network with a service that is based on a network. It features creation of customized apartments as well as avatars by each user.

Playstation Life on the other hand is a new online service launched where its users will be able to get information, news and know about weather as well with the help of their PS3 (Playstation 3) console. The only thing the users have to do is to just connect to the service and surf for the relevant information they are looking for. Initially the Playstation Life users will only be able to check the weather of 60 odd cities all around the globe. Users will be able to download videos of their own choice from a huge collection provided.

Currently Playstation is fairly low in features if compared to Playstation Home. Using Playstation Life one can view the earth and at the same time can even zoom onto those 60 cities and even check out their weather news. The drawback is one where the users will be only able to know the current weather new and nothing for the forecast or for the past weather data. Moreover the news is provided by Agence France – Presse, which users feel that would have been much better if it had been from Reuters.

Users can use the Playstation Life service by pressing Folding@Home icon that is provided in the network column of the gaming console. Initially the offering from Sony included information, news in accordance to two different themes namely time and place. It even provides cloud images, photos of 60 odd cities, weather information as well. The services are provided with the help of Google, Earth Television Network, and The Weather Channel etc.

Playstation Life and Playstation home are two examples showing the strategy of Sony. Sony is promoting its gaming console as well as making it different for its users. The future of Playstation is that it will not just remain as a gaming console but will target the full family as one will be able to watch news, download videos, and watch high definition movies with the help of digital TV.
