Breaking News Brought To Your PS3 By Nerv

Sunday 7 June 2009 @ 6:30 pm | By Ivan 'Nahu' Lozano 4 Comments

PS3 owners in Japan got a very special treat yesterday in the shape and voice of Evangelion’s Misato Katsuragi. Katsuragi Misato Hodo Keikaku is a new program for the PS3 which got released this past Saturday, its a virtual news program called Nerv News 24, anchored by the lovely Misato from Evangelion.

A voice synthesizer reads your favorite news and divides the virtual show into segments by topic. Think of it as the Wii’s News Channel on steroids. Unlike your usual news program Katsuragi Misato Houdou Keikaku shows you some… less orthodox shots of the news anchor such as a leg shot and a back shot which, if you ask me, are essential in better understanding the news.

    Well, this looks nifty. Synthesized news, guess it would be too much money to hire someone to read everything.
