Nah, I dislike the dual shock so I can say that this controller sucks, even if the handles aren't as uncomfortable as they appear.
No triggers and the left analog stick is still in the wrong place...the Xbox 360 controller seems far superior, at least for me.tracky_dacks

The "big surprise" at the end of the show is the announcement that the next installment of Grand Theft Auto is exclusive to PlayStation 3. Expect PS3 in Spring of 2006.
As expected. Lame.
Next presser!

Still reporting live from the Sony pre-E3 conference, we can confirm that Metal Gear Solid 4 has been officially announced for the PlayStation 3. SCEA president Kazuo "Kaz" Hirai delivered the good news today, just moments after Sony confirmed and revealed the PlayStation 3 console, scheduled to debut in spring of 2006.
While we've known for a while now that MGS4 was in development, this is the first official confirmation that the game is for the PS3.
Very few details are known yet, apart from Hideo Kojima taking a slightly more-distant role in development, and that the game uses a theme of "No Place to Hide!" Given the series' stealthy focus, this could indicate a fundamental change in direction for the franchise, or at the very least, some tasty gameplay enhancements.
We'll be back with more as soon as we have it.

At the Sony E3 2005 press conference Square-Enix just showed a Final Fantasy VII trailer running on PS3.
The demo depicted the introduction sequence to the original Final Fantasy VII, but was titled "Technical Demo for PS3." This means that it may or may not turn into an actual game. The PS3 can finally deliver Final Fantasy the way it was meant to be delivered -- just like the CG cutscenes.
The demonstration was a complete recreation of the beginning to Final Fantasy VII using some "awesome, awesome" graphics. It's an exact duplicate of the original game. It could even be a full recreation.
UPDATE: There will not be a Final Fantasy VII remake for PS3. Repeat, there will not be a remake. But, there will be a new Final Fantasy game. We'll have info on that as it happens.

Sony has mentioned in the past that its new handheld and its upcoming console would get along together, but it wasn't until the big unveiling of the PS3 that concrete details have been available on how this will come together.
In its PS3 unveiling, SCE announced that the PlayStation 3 would have support for USB 2.0, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and online networking. Those first two are the biggest concerns for PSP owners, as Sony officially confirmed that the Wi-Fi configuration of the PS3 would allow the PSP to wirelessly connect with the home console. No wires, no connectors, no muss, no fuss. Of course, the PSP also has outlets for the USB 2.0, which might allow for corded connections as well as wireless, if necessary.
PSP won't just be used for wireless file transfers -- according to the official specs for the system, the PSP can be used as a controller for the console. Whether PSP will be used as a PS3 controller much is up to developers -- the GBA and GameCube got along great together, and the PSP obviously has a lot more capable hardware to do interesting things than that duo. Whether PS3 developers enjoy that gimmick of a system with a full-color screen or else decide to stick to the more complicated PS3 controller configuration is a matter we will find out in time.

You'll get no arguments from me comparing the PS3 controller to the 360 since I prefer the layout of the 360 as well.
I think people are going overboard on the controller issue right now. That is all.

Are all the Killzone pics pre-rendered? Sure looks that way.
Man, its fucking Warhawk. You ever play the original? You fight enemies OUT THE ASS. Tons of enemies > environments.
Plus Incog probably doesn't even have 100% final dev kits, plus a whole year to release, I agree with their choice to make sure the sheer quantity of enemies be the focus of their early efforts.

I don't like that controller. I wanted the analog sticks like the MS S and 360 controllers with R1/L1 buttons and analog triggers to boot. Racing games and FPS still will feel more natural on the MS console. SONY really needed to address these issues and I'm disappointed they didn't.

Yup. Launching with GTA? Everyone has been owned, big time. The war is already over people, nothing to see here. BUT WTF is up with that controller...it does look comfortable though. I'll wait for impressions *sigh*

Very strong showing from Sony I think. Last year was rubbish, but they've really gone to town here. By announcing massive titles like MGS4, GT5 and GTA they've already started a big fat hype machine rolling. The console looks cool, a spring launch is earlier than I expected.
Don't see the big hullabaloo about the controller either. Looks fine.
I'm really excited to see what Nintendo have cooking now.

What an exciting thread.
The specs look good (I never believed 4GHz cell - 3.2 is pretty impressive), the console itself looks good (best looking console since Dreamcast IMHO). It's got Blu-ray but wont be slow-loading. The controllers are wireless (do they rumble?). It has plenty of memory. Awesome stuff.
On the down-side, the controller looks like it was designed by a secret agent from MS sent to sabotage the PS3. Maybe it's a rush-job because they were going to stick with the dual-shock and then they got hit with that law-suit? The hard drive is not included so it will probably be ignored and undersupported, not like 360's standard HD. I'll have to buy a memory stick or card or hard drive with the machine since it has no way of storing data otherwise. The graphics don't actually look any better than 360's so far.
But on the whole, not bad! Backwards compatibility makes the machine a must-buy for me, since I never got a PS2 and can now pick up a heap of awesome games super cheap.

Anyone get those screens Meier posted (or tried to)? Need rehosting if anyone can.
EDIT: Oh I can see some of them now.

Other than that, nice.
Wish you'd write the name of the games by the screens though.

6x Blu-Ray??? HOLY SHITE! We were hoping for 3 or 4x!
That's 300Mbs! vs 12xDVD = 133Mbs for Xbox360.
Say goodbye to load times!

Controller looks nice imo. If it doesn't have triggers again then I'll be dissapointed. Some of you guys are doing a big fuss for nothing.

Smells faintly of rancid stilton.
And IGN still has not had it feed for the sony conference

Am I the only one that noticed this?

In addition to this earlier:
Unless my math is mistaken, that's 1GB of RAM. Unfortunately I don't see it in the press release earlier in the thread. Did Gamesport mess up?
P.S. That controller is ass. I'll use the DS2, thanks.
