Sony has just revealed its latest pair of wireless headphones. Conforming to the usual branding paradigm within Sony, the wireless headphones are named after random keygens of alphanumerical characters, but look past the clunky names of the MDR-RF810RK and MDR-RF4000K, and you’ll see an attractive set of over-ear cans that would be a great addition [...]

In case you missed Giz Explains the other day—which lays out the entire ebook format and DRM landscape—the iPad will support DRM-free ePub books, in case you’ve got some on your Sony Reader or B&N Nook.

March 16th. That’s the date God of War fans are looking forward to as the third game gets a release. With that date less than a week away Sony decided to use GDC for a launch party.

If you are planning on buying Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11 this summer, then take note. Motion control support is being added for Wii and PS3, but not for Xbox 360.

Capitalizing on that new-fangled “three dimensional seeing” thing all you crazy kids are talking about these days, Sony just unleashed a veritable torrent of PR on the blogosphere about their eight new 3D Bravia televisions, coming to Japan (and likely the US) in June.
