Picture the scene. Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12 has just come out, and you stroll up to your PlayStation Eye with your favourite coffee mug in your hand. A few seconds later, that mug has become your 3-wood and you’re using it to drive a ball 300 yards down the 1st at St. Andrews.

Now, thanks to a patent application from Sony, that could happen. As well as the recently demonstrated ‘motion wand’, Sony have now registered an idea that will see any object become a game controller.

Yesterday we were at the global launch of the new Sony Ericsson AINO, the first mobile phone to include PS3 Remote Play technology.

We got a chance to get our hands on the device itself whilst at the event, and managed to capture some (shaky) video of the phone accessing the PS3. But what else does the AINO offer?

Speaking at a press event in London tonight, Sony Ericsson have revealed the AINO, a multimedia phone that has the PS3 Remote Play feature built-in.

Sporting a touch screen, a slide-out keypad and a stereo Bluetooth headset, the AINO is one of three new phones that fit into Sony Ericsson’s new ‘Communication Entertainment’ strategy.

David Reeves, from SCEE, is back, and speaking to NowGamer about their strategy for the PS3 in Europe.

He was asked some big questions regarding the console and what is in store for the future.

It has been a long time since our last PS3-related April Fools Roundup – a year to be precise!

Back then we brought your attention to a console version of World of Warcraft, motorbikes in GT5: Prologue and a $150 PS3 that has no Blu-ray drive.

What foolishness did we uncover today?

There are no two ways about it. The Thrustmaster T.Flight Hotas X is big. Really big.

Having a sizeable peripheral could be seen as a boon or a millstone. If size is important to you, if lengthy and vaguely pornographic product names appeal and if having something substantial in both your hands when you play is important, you’re going to love the T.Flight Hotas X.

Thankfully, those aren’t the only things going for this mammoth device…

Sony Ericsson was good enough to allow PS3 Attitude special access to the C905 phone over the Christmas period so we could exclusively try out its PS3 integration features.

Read on to discover why, if you’re a PS3 owner, you might want to consider getting your hands on one of these 8 megapixel superphones. Since you’re all nice people, we’ll even reveal some new features that are coming soon to the C905.

Street Fighter 4 fans, get your wallets ready. Mad Catz are making with the peripherals, and they are looking mighty fine. Don’t believe me? Well click through, because we have pictures to prove it!

Are you one of those people who like to chat away in your favourite multi-player lobby, within Home or via messaging on the XMB?

For as long as the PS3 has been around, a proper keyboard has been the best way to handle the situation. But a full size keyboard means you have to stop using the controller and grab a separate device.

So is the new Wireless Keypad the answer to all your chatting needs?

What Did PS3 Attitude Read This Week?

Curious about how the forthcoming Wireless Keypad works? Good – so are we.

Thankfully, Sony have put together this rather swish video showing you how it all comes together.

The UK’s official National Videogame Archive (NVA) has received their first donations of historic videogaming peripherals from Sony and Harmonix.

Donated at this year’s GameCity festival in Nottingham SCEE has given the NVA the very first EyeToy camera prototype and Harmonix has given a prototype drum kit and guitar from Rock Band.

The holidays are approaching rapidly and all of us at PS3 Attitude Towers would like to share with you what’s on our wish list – just in case it helps you with yours.

We’ve got a wide variety of games, accessories, and more that range from the expensive (Rock Band 2) to the affordable (PlayStation Dualshock 3). If you are having trouble shopping for that gamer in the family or just want to see what’s hot this year than you are in the right place.

In a new regular feature, shamelessly ripped off from the weekly Reading List at the Official PlayStation Blog, we answer one important question; What Did PS3 Attitude Read This Week? – or WDPS3ARTW? (catchy, huh?)…

You may remember the amazing and beautiful MGS4 PS3 designed and built by Morpheon Mods. You may also remember that the resulting eBay auction, with 15% of the proceeds going to charity, ended in selling for an incredible $17k.

Unfortunately, the winning bidder has not paid up, so Morpheon are doing the whole shebang again. Interview and new eBay link after the jump…
