...And in other news Immersion and Sony end litigation

(Reuters) - Sony Computer Entertainment said it and Immersion Corp. (IMMR.O: Quote, Profile, Research) agreed to end a patent litigation and entered into an agreement to explore the inclusion of Immersion's technology in Sony's PlayStation format products.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the federal circuit ordered for Immersion, a video gaming technology company, to receive damages, pre-judgment interest, costs, and interest, the game unit of Sony Corp. (6758.T: Quote, Profile, Research) said in a statement.

The conclusion of this litigation and the agreement will have no material impact on Sony's consolidated earnings forecast announced on January 30, 2007, it added.

Sweet rumble might be on its way back into a PS3 controller. I wonder what type of deal Sony made wasn't the lawsuit for like 91 million.

This looks too good to be true, so I doubt it that half of what's on the list will be here on the 8th. Lair's demo? NO WAY!

"freakyguy666: Has anyone else heard the rumors of a major Sony Online upgrade? Apparently the update will make the Xbox LIVE interface look antiquated in comparison. Apparently the interface is set up like a Virtual Town where each user has their own virtual apartment. Within your apartment you store your collection of acheivements and virtual trophies to show off to any "visitors" (i.e. people on your Friends list). Your friends could visit you if you are "home" (i.e. online)and once inside they could "walk around" your apartment and view how you've decorated your place. But more importantly, they could listen to any music or watch videos that you've got in your place (i.e. content you've stored on your PS3). Furthermore, your friends could join you for a game of cards or other simple games while listening to your music or even running a movie on your virtual TV (again using data on your PS3 HD). Once outside of your apartment you could visit the virtual Movie Theater to download--what else?--video content, visit the virtual Arcade, and other more exciting areas that I'm not at liberty to discuss yet...

The bottomline is that the interface is going to get a major overhaul and it's supposed to be very slick and user friendly. It will make apparent the advantages of the PS3 hardware and--dare I say--the new Sony Online Network."

If true too sweet, but probably fake and probably created by Microsoft agents trying to Damage Control all the good news from having an impact as fresh News at GDC.

I hope the rumor about PS Home is true. It would be like a myspace type thing with a trophy case for completing stuff online. Much better than achievements which are just numbers. I think PS3 is going to have a new image come April.

ITS FAKEEEE, probably made by Microsoft Agents to make people feel sad when half of it doesnt come true, like the Rumble stuff and the Killzone Stuff. The PS Home stuff is real and excitinggg.

If in fact any of this is true Sony just put the Vulcan death grip on XBL for get that, the MILLION DOLLAR DREAM on XBL and stuffed the hunnid dollar bill down their throat. I see a sharp decline in XBOX sales coming soon, well at laeast until Halo 3 comes out. Yon know what, you guys were right in saying we get what we pay for, a soon to be great online experience for free!!!

Any news relevant to gaming? All that stuff is about consumerism or non-related (see: Music) nonsense. Sony needs to get back into the gaming scene if they want to get out of that hole they've dug for themselves. They can start by releasing a PS3 without blu ray for 300 bucks cheaper....
