that may be, but the only megaton I can think of from the ps3 conference that would, according to some, "change people's view of sony" is if they come out with the same killzone trailer as last yr only have someone freeze it and pan the camera in real-time. NOW THAT would be a megaton worthy of such labels.

ok so here is the real question. Will we see killzone ps3? and if so, how on earth can sony dare show it unless it looks AT THE VERY least comparable to the video shown last yr?? believe!!!

I think they'll show it as long as it is up to scratch with what else is out there. I don't think they'll tie themselves to not showing it until it looks like last year's CG because..well..they may end up never showing it then :)

I'm kind of trying to think what potential disappointments there might be, as an antidote to all the optimism going around ;) Thinking what the controller will be like or details of online..devil could be in the detail. Unless they've just simply reverted to a Dualshock design, I'd say it might be a bit nerve-racking for Sony waiting to see how their controller will be received.

He said its not just 1 game that the announcement is about.

I just can’t see how any such announcements would make that much of a difference. I mean if this was the x360 conference and they got exclusive squeenix support, that’s one thing. But games going exclusive to the ps3, even if they are huge, I mean, people will be like ok, that’s great, but not really out of this world. It is the ps3 after all. So it’s hard to imagine something(s) that would qualify other than delivering the promise of graphics deemed impossible by the entire world. That or offering the ps3 for 199.

It seems like Sony may have some sort of "showroom" setup at their booth to demo PS3's broader entertainment capabilities.

http://www.gameshout.com/news/ps3_sony_e3_press_conference/article5643.htm

Right now Sony does have a large showcase to unveil more information about its PS3. The booth is simply amazing.

It is being said that PS3 is more than just a video game system for Sony, and it seems that way by just peaking at their showroom booth. Sony is making it clear that the PS3 is a complete entertainment system.

Pity they've no pics. I'm glad it seems we'll be seeing the PS3's general functionality, though, finally. I'm hoping they'll demo some of that tonight also, but we'll see..

are we going to see the mgs 4 trailer or is it left for the main show?

The full trailer will be at Konami's conference on Tuesday. Kojima should be in attendance at Sony's conference, though, so you never know...

I'd like to know too. Unfortunately I think their invites kind of left it open-ended, because there'll be a post-show reception, and AFAIK there won't be other demands on journo's time afterwards? Maybe someone could check for us...I really don't want to have to stay up past 1am :lol

So which is the better service? IGN or GS? Im bored with IGN and I'll never post in the forums not that I have found the glory that is GAF.

Yeah, I saw that posted earlier. Is there anything aside from the Feeds the GS offers over IGN?

I'm browsing the site now, maybe you can save me some time. Do paying members get a better quality feed? Id imagine so.

Yeah, you can download "high-res" trailers, don't know how "high-res" they are though.

It's not confirmed or anything.
 
without starting any flame wars, is there any substance to this rumor that sony have put motion sensors in the ps3 controller? - What credible evidence is there to suggest this?
If they have done this, dont you think it will leave them looking rather pathetic?

I expect World of Warcraft will be more about advertising than anything else for Sony. It is THE largest franchise right now and will be a good feather in their cap. It will be subscription based and will be a good example of how Sony's online strategy can be implemented. Keyboard and Mouse will never be popular among console owners so I suppose Blizzard is working real hard to have a controller interface as its primary input device.

Eyetoy already exists as Sony's opportunity for motion detection. Beyond it, there's nothing to substantiate rumours about Sony "wii-ifying" the PS3 controller.

DenogginizerOS - I'll eat a broom if that rumour is true!
