What is Sony doing regards the online play on PS3? Will the PS3 have online built in as standard, or will it still be some sort of "bolt on" adaptor like it is for PS2?

What % of PS3 confirmed games are designed with "online options", and what % are confirmed as "online only", and what % are "not online". Anyone know.

The US PSP will be region locked but only for films and music, you will be able to play US games.

Should be good.

I'm just praying that the US region aren't 'locked' games. Daren't even pre-order just in case...

Judging by the plans for the PSP, it looks like Sony have learnt their lessons from the PS2 online play.

Games like Wipeout Pure for PSP are expected to have downloadable content and some games will feature custom soundtracks too - something which Xbox (and PC owners for that matter) have been enjoying for quite some time now.

Sony really need to sort their online network out first.

Not sure on the games front, but the PS3 will come with an online adaptor as standard. I would have thought the majority of games with have online option and there has been talk of games coming with just a few levels at a cheaper than now price and you can download further part or levels as you go along.
