Sony Announces "Qore" Playstation Bundle

Sony Computer Entertainment America has announced a new subscription-based, multimedia, Playstation bundle that promises to feature developer interviews, game previews, demos, betas, and add-ons all delivered in high definition. Supposedly hitting the streets on June 5th, "Qore," seems an awful lot like paying to get more advertising. Hopefully the playable gems make this (admittedly cheap) service worth it.

    I take it this isn't limited to the ps3? Since nothing in the Playstation family but the PS3 is able to play high definition content, it can be safely assumed to be PS3 only.

    The MGS Bundle for $500 that will be in stores next week has the 80GB PS3 with backwards compatibilty. Releases June 12 at stores everywhere. This is not the same as the OMG ITZ GR3Y! Limited gunmetal edition, which is a 40GB for $600, and is only available direct from Konami (seriously, who put THAT together)

    People who have a PS3 come to mind.

    "No one cares." Surely he's not the only one who is made to feel uneasy about subscription services. I'm sure all of *those* people care.

    They're talking about having "exclusive demos and beta access". It actually sounds like Sony's trying to start charging for their online service, one part at a time.
