Sony finally shaves a few bucks off the Vita. Shows remote play at work during Gamescom (hopefully that wasn't a staged demo). And the PS4 looking a tad bit better than what I saw, months ago.

Bringing the 2 (PS4 & Vita) home together would be a $600 investment as it currently stands. That's not half bad, but I'm looking for the $500-$550 range tops. Yea, I know that Sony can't just give the darn things away. Considering what it cost to make the Vita.

Vita having it's own catalog of games, and being able to play PS4 games, has really got my attention as of now. My launch day PS4 I have on reserve (pre-ordered it the very moment it became available during E3) will be sold on eBay, and that $$$ will be used to bring home a PS4 & Vita together in the late summer or early fall of 2014.

Well this is going to be a problem for me. I told myself (and my wife) that I will become a single console guy this generation. I guess this is a good problem to have, when the world is in tough times.

Have a back log to get through, and next gen is right before my eyes...

Thank GOD for the OT my boss has been allowing us to have lately. Because my mindset just went from, $500 to $1100 for gaming (and that's not including the games). Well at least if the eBay thing works out, somebody else will be footing the bill for some of it :-)

You are almost there with me Sony. Just keep at it.

all i need is they somehow manage to bring the remote play feature to the iPad and use DS 4 to control. Isn't that better than offering any sort of bundle and cost more. Come on sony! Listen to the gamer and you will be extremely fine.

      Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.

      Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.

      Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
