Though things have certainly quieted down on the Home front, work on Sony's (overly?) ambitious project continues. Most recently, the service's beta testers were invited into a new location – the "Media & Events Space." As a test run, Sony recreated their PlayStation Day event from earlier this month, complete with photo galleries and a jumbo screen broadcasting speeches from the event (seen above: Big Brother, aka SCEE's David Reeves). Going forward, both Sony and third-party developers can use the "virtual arena" to host "everything from new game unveilings to sports events to fashion shows." Fashion shows? For the PS3 gaming crowd? We smell killer app.

Xbox live is great and all, but Im sick of these new videos by the major from cool events being horrible quality. I purchased a high definition gaming console, I can wait for the HD versions of videos to download. The streaming videos suck.

Sony's sent out a note to Home beta testers telling them that Ubidays 2008 will be the first publisher event to be broadcast in the new Media & Events space within the service.
