Technically Atlas was a Titan.

and..there is no xplay 2..it's already been confirmed by sony. There will be no gaming smartphone from sony for years. thank the horrible sales of the 1st play and the vita and the new chain of command sony has gotten. Plus, they just bought sony ericsson this year

How to you top a God? Titan

I generally don't believe anything Sony or any Company says. I mean many times they deny a product exists and then go and release it. It's very funny actually.
I still think there is an Xperia Play 2 in the future but I don't think it is the Atlas. Look at the price in the rumors.

SONY isn't dumb enough to throw a PlayStation oriented smartphone in the mix it would def send its Vita into an "earlier" grave

Not really . Because it will never compete with kind of experience that you get with the Vita. I'm satisfied with my Xplay because all I really need is emulator games and ocasional android fun titles.
Throwing an Xplay 2 would mean that they actually care about our gaming needs. Let's face it, all the other phones, whatever their hardware might be(quad, octo cores) they will never rival a phone playstation controls or physical controls for that matter. The way I see it, they should try to reduce the bulkiness and make the slider system more like the ones we see on the Nokia's(much more sturdy).
If you make it slimmer, port in some God of War games, make it more sturdy(a gaming device needs that) then people will BUY

Atlas was not a God

The next Xplay 2 will be named Hercules

xperia play 2 = pseidon

As much as I don't believe there is any Xperia Play 2 in the works, I am sure some of you will remember the buzz that preceded the release of PSP GO.
"What? Why would Sony release such a thing? A new PSP a with slide-out gampead and ONLY flash memory and no UMD slot??? They will never do such a thing."
And then - BANG! A video was released on YouTube with PSP GO, even before Sony officially announced the thing. Came as a shock to many, myself included.
Saying that, I still don't believe they have any kind of a new Xperia Play in their plans. The market is in a different situation now from then.

Xperia Play S/HD = DreamOn

I sincerely don't belive in these types of rumours, similarities and so on. If it's official, ok, if it's the Sun that will surely kill us in 5 billion years and we must stay in our homes starting form now (speaking about the "Atlas" rumour), it's nonsense.

Where did they confirm this? All I've seen them say is that they are focused on bringing the playstation experience to other phones in the lineup. They are focusing on the ps certified experience. If anything, this guarantees a successor to the play. It may not be something they are prepared to talk about now (hence denying all rumors to the contrary), but mark my words, it's going to happen.

A new version of XPlay?

It seems SE will launch a new PS Certified phone, the successor of Xperia Play.
Phone sizes keep creeping up, to the point where I worry using a 10.1-inch tablet will soon become the norm. If rumors are correct, Sony Ericsson's thinking big with their first glasses-free 3D phone—a possible PlayStation phone, perhaps?
Word on the street is Sony Ericsson wants a slice of the 3D pie that HTC and LG have both already cut, however negative the reviews may've been for the EVO 3D and Thrill 4G. Supposedly this phone they're working on with a 4.7-inch screen has a mega resolution of 1280 x 720, which in my eyes would make it perfectly placed for a follow-up PlayStation gaming phone to the Xperia Play.

Just a thought maybe this is the nexus prime?! 720p display check, huge ass screen for a phone check. I'm sure this will use dual core so thats another check. Make's sense for this to have ice cream sandwhich since it has that big ass screen. Nexus prime doesnt use any buttons, so 4.7 isnt that bad when you can make room since no buttons.
I can see why they would release it early. The new nexus comes out in november
Can this really be the new nexus prime? What do you guys think

LOL, your comparing a mid range android phone that plays mobile games to a state of the art dedicated handheld that will make the Play look like a Sega Game Gear?
Okay then lol......
Vita will have Uncharted, Resistance, Call Of Duty, Mod Nation Racers, Little Big Planet, Wipeout, PSN etc from day one and have graphics nearing the 360 and ps3 on a handheld.
I'm currently looking to pre order my Vita, the Play will do me until the Vita releases, i'll then get rid and have a "normal android or ios phone" and a dedicated gaming device (Vita) as the two don't mix too well at all in one device as seen with the Play lol.
And many people agree judging by the terrible sales of the Play and the poor reviews from across the board.......
Don't see what everyone is complaining about.
fk 3d phones and why do people need dual core. Do you often find yourself using 100% processing all the time.
3D has to be the biggest gimmicks out there at the moment and not to mention it's lack of clarity.
The problem i find here is that most people are whining about a phone that has been out less than 6 months and for some regions on 1 month.
For most regions it came on 2.3.3 and an update for 2.3.4 is out in September not to mention the recent software update that has already made the phone better in some features.
People here obviously lack patience and if you are constantly looking at what is coming out next then you will always be disappointed with any of your purchases.
Here's an idea... if you don't buy anything ever you will never be disappointed.
You made your bed now sleep in it or trade in your phone or something.
I love my play and am perfectly satisfied at the time between updates. If you like your play you will tell people about it rather than complaining about it and turning of people from buying it which then leads to companies not supporting it due to the low sales.

I agree whole heartedly! Love my play, only real issue is devs not making decent enough games for it - bit of a chicken egg scenario, devs wont make games as not enough ppl have bought the phone, ppl wont buy as not enough devs making decent games for it...
Don't matter tho, FPSE and the xoid family gives you all you need
Back on topic - I would love there to be more ps certified devices, and cross manufacturer, I want a dual screen device, with the second screen displaying a game pad or a keyboard at all times depending what I am doing!
i hate touch screen controls so until there are more phones with gamepads PS certified phones don't really interest me unless they are the next gen Xperia Plays.
pretty much all SE devices from now on will be PlayStation certified.

No Sony will open the pandoras box... they will defend their own stuff. Lock the Bootloader for sure, and introduce encryption. Why?
We all know that Sony for years didn't give to its child SE one thing... Playstation Sources... nobody in the world can emulate PS2/PSP as good as their own creator... we all know that theoretically wise todays phones are PS2 capable if PSP Vita is PS3 graphics capable at the moment... imagine, if your stock Android could run all PSP/PS2 legacy just with proper efficient recompiler? SE experimented with Xperia Play and stepped on Sony's foot, and seems Sony didn't like it, as it can ruin their business with PSP line(inner competition).
Style? Yeah for sure... it was and it will be... SONY has the best design by default... nobody can touch them in that department...

You're spouting a lot of rumor and opinion as truth.
From what I hear ericsson was the dead weight in that relationship, holding up development and making poor choices.
I think we will in the end see this as a very positive move.
I really think Sony knows better than to bury themselves like you are implying.
Soon, someone is going to make a misinformed post about the whole Sony/PS3/GeoHot thing and how that relates to this situation...
EDIT:
Which it doesn't, of course.
U know no means to connect PS3 to android its completely different sony made PS3 and its firmware and they want to sell games and keep away piracy from PS3 to earn money...
In android I think its a rule to atleast release the kernel sources...
And they don't want to loose money they are here to earn money and they see every means and techniques to earn money and they will definitely not lock their devices down to loose their money by losing their costumers...
The prices I think will definitely raise

I think they will improve their product as they can in order to compete in the market. And Sony's software policy is the same on each platform. Android is not an excuse.
And... We are not objective mates... we are just a bunch of geeks, and mere customers doesn't care about locked/unlocked bootloaders. We are nothing more than a mere minority of the market... definitely not the one on whom money could be made!(except of the habit bricking phones)
No matter what Ericsson is dead again... it is the second time Although its original Semiconductor part is doing great... its next gen CPU is present even on Chinas HTC Sensation(Due TD-SCDMA) and new NovaTHOR platform sounds very good, so we wont forget the name so soon.
The Biggest looser in the market is that old rubber boot maker... SE because the plain redesign using faster CPU, minimized the costs for R/D and etc development to establish new generation of phones for fall season... instead of NOKIA throwing out endless rubbish...

Yeah, me too. A shame that they are not planing it just yet.
If it wasn't for the release price of the Xperia Play, I think that more people would have bought it. At least here, in Portugal.
It's still too early to be announcing the Xperia Play 2 cause the Vita was released a few months ago.
I bet SE were thinking, "How great are we, a part of a gamepad that is sort of a touchscreen, not buttons? Aren't we clever and innovative?"
Hmmm... No.

It's easy to understand: if the Playstation Certified brand becomes a success then maybe we'll see a Xperia Play 2.
I don't get why Sony tries to piss off so much the XPlay owners/commmunity. Instead of continuously giving out bad news for the device, they should try to reconcile with us by giving something else in change.
Although Sony is a nice company with great ideas, concepts and products, they seem to fail at this matter. I am still waiting for a good update for XPlay with many new additions.
It won't be an Xperia Play 2. It'll be a "Playstation Phone"
It won't be either, Sony wanted to kill the play ever since they found out someone bought one instead of a vita.
Sent from my R800i using xda premium
Whatever they do, a phone with Vita OS won't stand a chance.
First, majority of people need their phone to be dependable and secure, and NOT be a "plaything". An OS that evolved around a game console simply won't be treated seriously by consumers.
Second, Apps from all the major players are required such as google map, gmail, facebook, twitter, flash player, whatsapp, youtube, dropbox, etc... needless to say there's always arm-twisting between these, and other companies, to prevent any new OS from succeeding.
Without a serious image and support from these companies, a phone running on such an OS won't hit a critical mass required to attract app/content developers, and it will flop even harder than Xperia PLAY.
At this time, the next Xperia Play's best OS choice is still Android. But even then, I think Sony really dislike the idea of Playstation ecosystem sitting on top of Android. They may think it changes too fast, too many different hardware, or difficult to control piracy.
So even the best choice is not appealing. So I think Sony won't be putting Playstation content on Smartphones for years yet. And that's a shame because It think that's exactly what we all want happening now.
If you haven't heard, Sony and HTC are now partners with regards to PlayStation Certified devices, domains that's where the next Xperia PLAY will come from, although I haven't seen a flip or slide phone from HTC that sold well since the mytouch 4g. All I can say is that the next series of android phones will be very interesting to see, and only then can we truly discover where the xperia play will go.

I'm seriously hoping HTC produces a phone with a gamepad. I've had a thing against sony for a long time (going back to before PS3 launched, but its gotten ever worse ever since). I was seriously biting the bullet to get this phone for its gamepad functionality. I've always wanted an HTC phone, and if they manage to come out with a game phone with decent specs, I'll be all over it. Anything to shoot sony the bird.
If they gave the xperia play higher specs and made it more future proof then they would be seeing them starting to fly out now. Ironic at e3 they were saying they only put out the best.

Rather Xperia Neo L (rumors about escaping from China), Xperia GX (international release - cool phone btw) or Xperia ION (another nice phone).
But if they announce XP2... this would be the most exciting day we've ever had, I think :-D

Not a chance that it will be the PLAY2, simply wont happen.
My guess is a phone that no one cares about, like the Xperia ion.

Might actually be XP2. The message says "something fun". A gaming phone is something fun.
Or then again it might be some engineering wonder phone with awesome specs but not controls, ergo a useless gaming device but decent phone and great gadget.
Maybe some PSP games like Daxter or Syphon Filter for Playstation Certified devices finally?! Sony, where are you?
I think it could possibly be some bigger title games or something software related but I highly doubt it'll be an xplay2 this phone was a bomb sales wise and only a certain crowd was attracted to it and it makes no sense for them to make another more powerful version so soon.

- The Xperia Play is aprox. 1 year old.
- The "Playstation Certified" ecosystem is too much young, 1 year aprox. too.
- All the "Playstation Certified" devices haven't recieved the Playstation Suite (Playstation Mobile now).
Because all of this, I don't exepct a possible Xperia Play 2 at least after one year or more.
With this and the rumours again about ICS you all are beginning to hype too much and then when you see nothing coming will rage and flood all the forum telling how horrible is Sony. u__u

"Something fun" can be a new app, a new mobile just with a good camera...

The E3 has been from 5th to 7th of June, we are now on 9th...
And if Sony wanted to show anything on the E3 it would had done it on its conference, and no Xperia Play 2 was shown.

I agree. "Something fun" is completely dependent on what Sony thinks it's consumers will regard as being "fun." That could be music, movies, games, exercise, or any other aspect of "entertainment" that Sony already has its hands in. Honestly, don't expect too much from this news. Remember the last big announcement? There was all the hype about the PS Store adding new games or making the US able to buy games or whatever, and it ended up being nothing special.
I'd say move along, there's nothing to see here. At least wait for the actual event to talk about it, rather than build up your fanboy hopes. Like Miles Wolf said, don't hype yourselves up just to end up flooding the forums with your disdain that it wasn't what you expected/wanted.
when it's not related to our product you will all go a la rage-comics again.. that is just dumb
I believe and i hope it is ics for xplay. Lolz

Anyone else think Sony, s new phone isn't 'fun' as they described it would be

Hey
Just seen the new phone (miro) God knows who comes up with these gays names. I don't get which part of this phone is meant to be fun. OOOOOoooo Facebook integration!! Erm Sony Facebook integration is a thing of the past, many phones have succeeded some haven't. But the fact is you brag about yourselves being 'innovative' the only innovative thing you can't see are the consumers who want something different to what you are doing. That's not to say you won't sell many phones, pretty sure they, ll be hundreds flying out. However in a world of many smartphones the war is tight and every single sale counts, so if the numbers don't add up at the end. Don't come questioning the minority that left.

Whining about not getting ICS is okay but this not xperia play related. not worse than any other manufakture.
How is this news connected with the xperia play section?
Oh god, no. Now don't begin to flood all the forum moaning about that new phone.
Why the hell did you think it was going to be a Xperia Play 2? Even there was the anouncement that Sony was not developing this phone...
A gaming phone with quad core, 1 GB RAM, etc.? Are you serious Sony would make a machine like that to make direct competition with the Playstation Vita?
Get real. And grow up.

your not really thinking about what your saying, when have sony ever confirmed the existence of any phone before they are ready? and why would they anyway? that's what MWC, CES and their own events are for
the specs to an extent dont matter, a play 2 could have better specs then a vita but if it doesn't have veta games, your average joe gamer wont care, hell, neither would i
an easy solution would be to limit a play 2 to PSP1 games only, there would be no conflict there and sony could build on that as cell phone gaming evolves
Thread closed. Nothing to do with Xperia Play.
