Back in June at Sony’s Strategic meeting in Tokyo, a new service for the PlayStation 3 was announced: Life with PlayStation; a service that brings you live news, live webcam feeds and weather among other things. At E3 2008, Jack Tretton, CEO of SCEA announced that the service will be available for the PS3 at the end of July – most likely through a firmware update.
Tretton also mentioned the ability to upload gameplay videos directly to YouTube is on the horizon, allowing gamers to view and vote for videos on a dedicated PlayStation 3 Channel. It is speculated that it is up to the developer to include this in games, and so only certain games will support video uploading.
