Youâve seen the blurry photos, the clearer photos, and the videos of the Xperia Play âPlayStation Phoneâ in action. Now Engadgetâs gotten their hands on the real thing, and theyâve put it through its gaming paces.

Of course what weâre mainly concerned about here is the gaming. How does it play?
Since we have little experience with the PSP Go, we asked a good friend of ours to compare his experience on our Xperia Play with his 50 to 100 hours of play time on his PSP Go. Interestingly, one of his first reactions was that the phone is less well balanced than the bottom-heavy PSP Go, and then he noted that the shoulder buttons could do with more depth, but this would obviously require a thicker body. That said, we both agree that the Xperia Play is still comfortable to hold, and also it has a better build quality than the PSP Go. We also noticed that the screen can be wiggled gently when closed (such phenomenon is commonly known as the âoreo effectâ amongst Palm Pre users), but itâs nothing major.
There were no games available for the system, but thatâs nothing a couple of emulators wouldnât fix.
