Sony tunes in YouTube PlayStation 'channel'

by Randy Nelson on Oct 15th 2008 8:30PM

After what most would agree has been a successful stab at (officially) blogging about PlayStation, SCEA has taken up residence on YouTube. No, this isn't directly related to news from May that, should their developers wish, some PS3 games will offer functionality to upload gameplay videos directly to the Google-owned sharing service. (PixelJunk Eden was one of the first games to capitalize on the feature.)

The PlayStation YouTube channel is essentially SCEA's most direct avenue for distributing new game videos; the channel currently has around 54 in total, from NBA 09 The Inside, Motorstorm: Pacific Rift, and LittleBigPlanet. It's nothing groundbreaking, but should be nonetheless handy in that you can subscribe and receive official videos as they're released (albeit in YouTube, er, "quality"). Or, of course, you could just keep an eye on a – ahem – certain blog you're reading right now. (Wink)

When is PS3Tube releasing, its about time they make use of that 'upload to youtube' feature more :)

Ps3 uses Channels? That sounds familiar...

Nice addition though.

When PS3 adds RSS it'll be sweeter.

Um...I think 1950's television or earlier patented "channels"

yeah, i'm sure that's where youtube got them.

finally, i was getting worried for no reason but back to da subject at hand, i had heard in da 'past' dat PSTUBE would be coming as early as october but since they officially started to announce this, i can put my ....... to rest.

Can I add obnoxious generic rock songs over my boring videos showing me playing a game?

Hahaha, I usually avoid those things but once in a while I stumble upon some crappy anime/game video with Stricken as background song... that shit is annoying.

Don't forget windows movie maker overlay effects!
They make your video even BETTERER!

Hei guis who wants to see me playin naruto while Inside the fire plays in the background?

Maybe not the best tiem.

I saw one guy whose clan made a forum thread collecting anime music vids with Linkin Park - they got to well over a hundred before they lost their souls.

True, but some good ones do actually have editing that fits with the songs.

Indeed, some people do a very good job with this stuff. Just like some companies make generic, stupid games while others do a good job with it.

Mezzanine just wanted to whine.

So...when will they change the link on the PS3 Browser from their blog scea youtube channel to this one?

ok....

This is...well, dumb. Why don't they make use of Crackle/Grouper? after all, they paid 65 millions for it...

Because Youtube is a great market tool.

I don't think many people outside of tech sites (and such) have really heard about it. Youtube is the best choice to (basically freely) market the game. Youtube is now synonymous with watching internet videos for the public.

Meanwhile we can subscribe to CRACKLE RSS feeds on our PSP...

I really wish the same teams were working on the software/hardware!

I wonder how they'll handle (if the rumor is true) the LBP videos people will be uploading.

That's what I was gonna say. Nobody wants to watch you play a level, but watching an experienced user build a machine or build a level would help everyone alot.

Best buy ads make me RAGE!!!!!!!!111eleven.

Anyhow I'm looking foward to get Rick roll's 24/7 nao.

I agree. WTF Joystiq?! BestBuy already owns half my wallet...

yea so y'all didnt have anything better to report huh???

this is like 6+ months old.......
