While it’s easy to find strategy guides on the Internet, Sony wants to make things a little easier for you with the introduction of its new PlayView for Games over in Japan, which is a digital strategy guide service on the PlayStation Network today. These guides are designed for PSP games and can be purchased and downloaded onto a PS3 so that gamers will be able to play the game on their portable console while using the TV for reference. It seems a little extreme to use a large display as a guide for a small display, but then again, whatever works, right? The guide features digital pages that players can zoom in or flip through easily, not to mention that videos and background music are included too. It’ll set you back around 600 Yen ($7-8). There wasn’t any mention of an international edition of such guides just yet, but Sony indicated that future PlayView eBooks could include fan-created material or art collections, not just strategy guides.
