+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted December 9, 2007 Subscriber² Share Posted December 9, 2007 It looks like Ash may have been right. Stuff magazine is running a rumor item on the possibility of an upcoming Aibo, the robotic dog, working with the Playstation Portable and Playstation 3. The rumor goes that the Sony Aibo PS, as they call it, is being resuscitated by Sony's Playstation division in an attempt to "bolster the PS3's arsenal."The Aibo PS will appear with its own avatar within Home and react in the real world as he does in the PS3's upcoming interactive environment, according to the article. The rumor article goes on to say that you will be able to download new personalities for the dog from the Playstation Network and that the dog will be fully controllable using a PSP via WiFi. The dog's head camera will send a real world vid feed to the PSP's screen as well. The Dpad will control walking movement and the four main buttons will deal with head movement, which seems odd. The Stuff folks rate this rumor as having a 53 percent probability. Seems like a cool concept, but I wonder if there's the market for it to hit the real world. Who am I kidding? A remote control dog that can send live video from its head, sign me up for a baker's dozen.

Prince Charming Posted December 9, 2007 Share Posted December 9, 2007 I preferred the more dog-like AIBOs, instead of the more robotic styled ones, like this one. Bah, bring back the retro AIBOs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sundayx Veteran Posted December 9, 2007 Veteran Share Posted December 9, 2007 AIBOs were really the ****. Sony ditched good stuff like AIBOs, for crap and useless stuff like Rolly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soniqstylz Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I'd use it as an innocuous and cute video camera to have it walk inside some women's college dorm. Er, I mean, hey, sounds neat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cormier6083 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 A new AIBO would be cool. I could finally join the cult of AIBO users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
