I remember the "THE PSP CAN'T BE UNDER $350 GUYZ!!?! SONY WILL GOE TEH BANKRUPTZ!!"-type comments from the past few E3's. Deja Vu, I can't wait until tomorrow.PhatSaqs said:

Yah at most we'll get a teaser, possibly whatever goes with the dialog Ryan posted.

You mean at Sony's conference, right?
Surely you're not saying we'll only get a teaser at Konami's shindig.
I wouldn't bet on that price/package either. If they did, however, I WOULD bet the ranch that MS would file a lawsuit alleging "dumping" of some sort or another
edit: I've been thinking about the generally accepted wisdom that they will wait 'til TGS for the price announcement. If Sony wants to be really cutthroat they will announce something about the price tomorrow. Reason being that a competitive price would stifle 360 sales and/or force pre-emptive price cuts bleeding MS financially even before their product is on the market. Just a thought.

Will the new MGS4 trailer be shown during Sonys conference or do you guys think Konami will hold it off until their own show?

Yah for Sony's conference, Konami's will have the full trailer. Ryan and Ken are also posting a long podcast on the 9th to give more info on the announcements and what they show at their conference.
Out of the games we know of (excluding MGS4), what will be the most impressive (graphically) PS3 game shown at Sony's conference?

I think the price will ultimately be $399.99 w/HDD included ... but Sony won't announce it tomorrow to keep MS guessing right into the fall.
There's really no benefit to Sony to announce the price this early. It just give MS more time to figure out what they want to do with their own price point.

I agree with the $399 price point. Microsoft set this bar (this generation) with the Xbox360, i'm willing to bet Sony will follow suit. All I know, is that anything higher will allow the PS3 to slip through my fingers until it gets a price drop.

And this is the advantage to launching one year later. People keep saying stuff like, "If Sony is shipping their system a year late shouldn't the PS3 be clearly more powerful than the 360?"
And the answer is NO! If they include a HDD, BD player, and Wifi out the box a year later that basically eats into what Sony could have spent into putting extra power into the console.

Sony won't announce it tomorrow. I think they're enjoying the "It's gonna cost 1 billion fucking dollars!" press, it makes the system seem awesomer. Keep people talking about it, hit them with a reasonable $400, and count the money.

I think you'll see Unreal 3 for PS3 announced as a launch title with PS3 Network play and all that jazz along with the new controller and of course a lot of othre games. But no price.

As a matter of fact if they do announce that the 60 Gig HDD is included most analyst will probably say that it will cost at least $600.:lol
And Sony will just :lol knowing that the real price will be WAY lower. Welcome to the pre PS2 and PSP times.

I swear...E3 is like Christmas for gamers (in terms of gaming information and news). To bad this excitment won't come around again for another 6 years (since generational shifts are much more exciting than regular E3s)
Lair, Heavenly Sword, Final Fantasy VII:r (I wish), The Getaway or Killzone.SolidSnakex said:
GT5 will probably look amazing, but as a racing game you can't really compare it in general as you can with most every other genre.
No matter what happens though, every PS3 game will be scrutinised and the tiniest fault paraded.

Christmas indeed. But I disagree with your excitement lowering thing. I think Sony set the bar so high that every year people will want to see if they will achieve what they show. I personally think this will happen every year for the next 5 years.

Holy shit, I can't believe E3 is here.
It really is a holiday for gamers. My friends and I are considering making cards.
