Earlier last week, a new PSN game was revealed, and was said to be shown at GamesCon. Below is the debut trailer of the game.

Sony has announced that a video delivery service will be hitting parts of Europe starting this November. Along with a new look for PSN starting September 1. Sony is looking to expand upon their Home service. Adding new dance moves, animations, and new character customizations. You’ll also have a camera to carry around within Home. VidZone is expanding to other countries in Europe, starting with Sweden, Denmark, Norway, and New Zealand. Two new Spaces for Home have also been announced, SingStar, and Audi. Sometime within next month, UK consumers can purchase PSN cards.

Heading to the PSP side, Eye of Judgement and Locoroco Midnight Carnival have also been announced. A digital reader, and comic reader will be available for the PSP in November. With Marvel being the leading partner. Something sounding similar to the PSP App Store have been announced, with games releasing no bigger than 100MB in size. Fifteen being available at PSP GO! launch, and 50 til the end of 2009. PSP 3000 getting new colors, Turqoise, Pink, and Purple. GT for the PSP Go will be FREE to European and PAL consumers who register between the dates of 1-10 Oct. Please Note, that this is only for PSP Go owners.

Eyepet has been priced at 50 euros, which is bundled with the PlayStation Eye Camera.

Heavy Rain, final two characters were revealed. Shelby, a private detective working on the Origami Killer case. Ethan, who is an architect and has to find his son in 4 days. All the scenes within the game will be fully interactive.

Nothing new about the Motion Controller until TGS.

Lastly, Kaz Hirai has taken the stage, and finally unveiled the long denial of the PlayStation 3 Slim. Being available to all territories with the first week of September. It’s 33% smaller, and 36% lighter. With 120GB of Storage memory, the cost will be $299, 299 Euros, and 29980 Yen. Also all current PS3 SKU’s have been slashed by at least $100.

Eric Lempel has revealed the latest firmware update coming soon. No it doesn’t add cross game chat, It adds more customization features to your PSN experience.

Additional highlights from update 3.00 include:

• “What’s New” – The “Information Board” will be replaced with a “What’s New” section, which allows you to enjoy interactive PlayStation news every time you start the PS3 system. Located under the PlayStation Network icon, “What’s New” displays the latest and greatest game, video, PlayStation Network and PlayStation news and releases, as well as your recently played games, in a sleek, new animated format.
• Status Indicator – In the top right corner we’ve added an indicator bar, which displays your user icon, friend icon, the number of friends you have online and a small message icon to let you know if you have any new messages. The indicator also includes a scrolling ticker that features the latest news from PlayStation Network. In addition, when you press the PS button, the battery life indicator will no longer cover up the clock.
• Friends List – Now your PlayStation Network friends will appear in a slightly redesigned format on your Friends List. Also, messages will now be viewable from each of your friends’ respective profiles.
• PlayStation Store Shortcuts – We’ve added a handy shortcut icon to the PlayStation Store under both the Game and Video categories so you can access the latest content quickly and easily.
• Personalization – Personalize your PS3 with new dynamic custom themes and avatars. Dynamic themes as well as free and premium avatars will be available through PlayStation Store. A dynamic theme takes your screen to a whole new level as it incorporates animated objects into the background.

Trophies – Showcasing your hard earned trophies just got better. Update 3.00 gives game developers the ability to modify how they display trophies for add-on content. Base and add-on game trophies will continue to be combined into a single list so you can see where you stand in a game as a whole. Within that list, trophies will be broken out into subcategories—base trophies and add-on trophies—that way, you can easily view the percentage of your base game trophy collection, and separately track your trophy progress in add-on packs. Look for this enhancement to be included in upcoming games.

The PlayStation Network will be down during Sony’s Presser at GamesCon today. Again, you won’t be able to access the store, and play online games during this time.
