If you missed out on entering the 2016 Sony World Photography Awards, then you may be interested in this little piece of news. Sony has a monthly competition and you don’t need to be an expert to enter. Sony welcome all photographers, whether it’s the first photo you’ve ever taken or you’re already a master. This month the theme is ‘Still Life’, a competition that challenges you to make pictures rather than simply take them. Lucky winners can walk away with a Cyber-shot RX100 IV, an Action Cam AS200 or a Hi Res Walkman® NW-A20. Entry is simple, just visit the website.
Now, for those more interested in gaming, PlayStation® this week uploaded a brand new Mirror’s Edge trailer, showing fans glimpses of Faith’s amazing journey as a true heroine. You can see the trailer here:
Not stopping the excitement there, PlayStation also announced that a few lucky fans could sign up for closed beta testing for Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, as it was offering a chance to step into the shoes of Faith before the game’s final May release. The Mirror’s Edge™ Catalyst Closed Beta will be available for PlayStation® 4 and you can sign up online now. We certainly won’t be missing out.
As you know, this month celebrates Valentine’s Day and what better way to show our Sony fans how much we appreciate them than with a few deals?!
