[dolemite]

How many hours till sony infos will start rolling in? I know I should check myself and convert to my timezone, but ehh.. tired...

4 and a half more hours.

 

[Phantast2k]

Welcome to chillax TV, we will be showing gamecom live, so don't miss out!

The conferences too??

 

[Edeuinu]

I think the EU blog will have a live blogging something

 

[Fortinbras]

The Microsoft line up is pathetic. Playable at the booth are Forza 3 (yay!), Halo 3 ODST (Do not want!), Lips (Do not want!) and... Windows 7.

No other games, no Natal and ODST for Live members only.

Thanks! Also, wow that EU blog looks different!

Great job OP.

Hope these streams work.

Why Sony aren't streaming it live through playstation.com or Home is baffling.

GDC Europe: Sony claims 'Huge Steps Forward' With Playstation Home

finally:

Among the additions to Home coming in build 1.3, Cox mentioned the Character Viewer Tool, which will allow devs to do a lot more with character creation, and custom animations for characters – up until now only the pre-set animations which come with Home are at a developer's disposal, but allowing animations built for specific purposes will mean "avatars will feel so much more involved", according to Cox.

 

[ItAintEasyBeinCheesy]

So we can see what the bottom of an avatars shoe looks like now, YAYYYYYY.

 

[BradleyUK]

The conferences too??

Yes I believe so.

 

[Kinan]

Just confirmed that Chillax will show Sony conference. EA maybe not, but for EA there is an official stream.

Less than 2 hours to EA conference giving kick-start to Gamescom, btw.

 

[DodgyGeezerFella]

GAF IRC channel anywhere ?

sweet! thanx for the info!

 

[theignoramus]

what is chillax?
And can they handle the inevitable Gaf tide?
(which is to say, will they even be worth visiting if their servers cant handle Neogaf?)

Since when is two big games a pathetic showing

They will not survive, its almost given that it will be unwatchable, sadly.

I would agree but PSN is going down for two hours starting at their conference time. Something huge is coming.

 

[blaccat]

They have a specific event space that you can go to in Home. Though, don't bother going in before that time because it appears PSN will be down during the conference from 9am-11am PST: http://bit.ly/3ehVz

If you are logged on before the shot down, u will still be logged on during the shot down

 

[Violater]

Sorry wrong thread :/

I hope you're right and it's not just vidzone.

 

[Puck]

PRESELL 2 & PRESELL 1 ??
What could that mean, or is that retailer jargon?

Presell = preorder, ie they "sell" it before you receive it. The 1 and 2 are looking at the product names in the databases, probably are bundles.

 

[Billen]

Anyone who has any good ideas on how to view Gaf and/or other sites (nicely formatted that is) with info on this with Windows Mobile?

 

[Cruzader]

Damn that Kmart PS3slim teaser has got me hyped for Sony's conference more then ever. cant wait.

you mean when the conference is on? good luck accessing gaf for the first few hours of the conference. there will be more 500 internal server errors than e3 for sure.

 

[Blablurn]

see yaaa tonight!! yyeeeah.

i'm fucking hyped. let's do this!

 

[Shiggy]

Were Buzz! Sports 2010 and Singstar U2 already announced?

 

[tirminyl]

I hope you're right and it's not just vidzone.

I wouldn't think they would need to bring down the entire network to update Vidzone. You only do that when you are actually doing maintenance, or adding...other stuff. I am just going with maintenance as I don't want to board the train.

 

[SolidusDave]

I hope you're right and it's not just vidzone.

PAL-videostore IMO (announcement at Gamescom already... announced)

 

[painey]

Stormrise 2?

I think they have finally learned their lesson, stick to making RTS games for PC only.

 

[Edeuinu]

PSN is down to come up back up with the entire ps2 library up for download and a nice little BC FW UPDATE DUH SILLYGOOSES!!

They'd need many petabytes of server storage.. good luck LOL.

 

[Snoodaard]

Wouldn't mean anything for alot of europeans if they don't release the DAMN PSN CARDS.

 

[yurinka]

I hope you're right and it's not just vidzone.

I would say Gamescom stuff, new Home version and video store in EU, and maybe new firmware. LULZ

Wouldn't come to EU PSN for a few months anyway.

:lol

 

[StealthGoblin]

Yesterday evening I was all calm about what was going to happen but wasn't expecting much, but now PSN is having maintainence done at the time of the conference, there are GT5 pods on the show floor, there'll be a big LBP announcement amongst other things, I find my mind wandering, and I'm getting stupidly hyped.

I need to calm down.

 

[Biff]

So we can see what the bottom of an avatars shoe looks like now, YAYYYYYY.

Well BAM there it is.

Has this been posted in here yet? I grabbed it from the GT5 thread. Slotaku do a walkthrough of the show floor and near the end you see MANY GT5 booths set up.

 

[Dragon]

How many games are you assuming they'd put up there? I'm not disagreeing with you, there's no way they're doing it, but I don't see space as an issue. If each game averages 9 gigs and they are say 2400 games, it wouldn't be a tremendous amount of space.

 

[Torgo]

Probably because the PSN and Home will be down during that time period

Well seeing how many ps1 games we have I think 2400 ps2 games might be a bit generous.

[manutd]

OP says ea press conference should be starting now

 

[Dead Prince]

[luffeN]
