Xperia Play


The Soultion to Android Gaming

Who usually makes the best quality products for the cheapest price, not Sony. Sony is a mastermind at creating a consumer device with the latest hardware and longevity in mind. They usually make the price simply exponential and still people buy their products, shit i buy their products.

The Sony Xperia Play or what was rumored as the PlayStation Phone has finally been released out to the public as the solution to Android gaming. So how do we think this went down..?

Google: Damn our games suck
Sony: Hell yea, what are you gnna do about it
Google: Nothing really people will buy our shit even if we have shitty games
Sony: Oh hell, people buy our shit and our phones suck
Google: Maybe if we joined forces WE COULD RULE THE WORLD MUHAHAHA!
Sony: ........
Google: To much
Sony: Just a bit

It seems that Sony was simply waiting for an operating system to showcase their own brand of cellular gaming and it will solve Android's gaming problem as well. So in short Sony is the solution.

Xperia Play

Specs:
1Ghz Snapdragon
4in Display [854 x 480 resolution]
Sony Dualshock Game pad
5mp Camera
Android 2.3
Timescape Widget

This phone has been on back order for the gaming community for a long time and with its arrival sadly some people will be disappointed or some people may be so happy that they look past the somewhat careless flaws of such a long awaited device.

PROS:
-The Game pad on this device is clearly its strongest factor its sleekness and design is profound.
-The Sim and SD card slot can all be accessed without removing the battery
-PSOne Emulator
-Battery can be used for around 5 hours on game play and 24 hours regular usage

CONS:
-Cheap plastic casing
-Screen if not kept at full brightness is pretty much useless

So even though this phone can be some what on the disappointing side it is still a PlayStation phone that has a game pad, anything else need be said.
