The best thing about Sony’s PlayStation brand is that it’s instantly recognized. Most Australians have grown up with a PlayStation 1 or 2 in their home, so the transition to the new PlayStation 3 should be a logical and easy one. However, Sony may be single-handedly making that transitio...

Last year, Sony and Nissan teamed up to hold a Gran Turismo competition. GT racers would compete for a spot on a real race team. The winners are in, so let's go meet 'em.
