PS3: Mii + Achievements?

I normally wouldn't mention a rumor story posted up at Kotaku.com, but this one is somewhat connected to some of my more-recent blog entries. This rumor has appeared before, but there definitely seems to be a bit of momentum behind it this time. We'll, hopefully, discover the truth next week when Phil Harrison dazzles us with his verbosity. Until then, though, enjoy this story about what Sony may be planning in order to expand the PS3's sense of community.

And my prediction for Sony's new marketing slogan: Come Home to PS3.

UPDATE: Apparently, after running the above story about the PS3, Kotaku was cut off from all future Sony support. That means no more interviews, products or hardware coming to them from Sony. While I have to frown upon Kotaku for running a story that has hurt their relationship with Sony (especially on such a minor topic), I do feel that it adds a bit more to the validity of it.

UPDATE #2: Apparently, Sony trademarked the following logo very recently:



It's interesting that the PS3 reserves 96MB for its OS (operating system), as well as one SPU. The XBox 360? A mere 32MB. Why does Sony need THREE TIMES the resources? Maybe the answer to that will be revealed next week at GDC.
