It appears that everything is a "Game Changer" nowadays.

Basically, Play coming out well ahead of the Store/Suite being ready (!)

What incentive for someone to buy a Play now and not wait for devices coming later that might also support Suite? How much Marketplace content will there be in the interim?

So it comes with ONE game? And then Suite launches later in the year? Wut? Why?

One game preloaded + stuff from the Marketplace 'optimised' for the device. It seems that 'Pocket' app is actually just SE's way to highlight that content in the short term before Playstation Store arrives.

fake edit - they just said there'd be 50 'optimised' games at launch.

GAWD, it's all so confusing with this pre-Suite launch period.

I presume the content they talked about will be grandfathered into the Playstation Store when it's ready?

Around 20 publishers working in around 50 Xperia Play launch games.

EA, Gameloft, Glu are there. Unity 3D guys supporting the device.

To be released this spring US with Verizon.

So March. That's enough time between launch and my current contract ending to let everyone else see what it's like :p
