Sony has not announced anything to the press regarding Playstation but this may soon change. At a Tokyo press conference today, Koei president Kiyoshi Komatsu stated that SCE is holding a conference next week, and he expects to receive updates then. "I really have no [new] information on the PlayStation 3," said Komatsu. "[But] SCE will be holding a presentation next week on the 15th. We expect there will be some new information regarding the PS3 then."

Whether SCE will be unveiling anything big during the meeting, such as the widely rumored PS3 launch delay, is unknown at the current time. Komatsu's final words during his conference today indicate that SCE may itself still be unsure about what it will announce. "I've been consulted with SCE about what kind of details they should announce," said Komatsu. "I've told them that I'm hoping they will make an announcement that will heat up the game industry."

All I know for sure is that there will be people who love any information that comes our way, and then there's those who will take anything Sony say and use it as fuel for their anti-Sony fire.

Me? I'm going to stay neutral until the PlayStation 3's release, and follow nothing but the games for the console. After all, isn't that what it's about? No one is going to change anything Sony do by saying what they feel they have to say on the Internet, blogger X won't make Sony upgrade the graphics card, it's up to Sony what they make, and it's up to the consumer to buy it.

Make your decision when you've seen the final product, and cast opinions and discuss the games that have been announced. Failing that, do something else or go out and get some exercise.

to be fair, sony have given people plenty of reasons to be negative about practically anything they publically announce. Maybe if they stopped lying, and making childish sniping comments at the expense of competitors we wouldn't have such a hard time believing them.

To be fair as well... What company doesn't lie and make childish sniping comments at their competitors, that the name of the game...

Sony is going to announce that they're cancelling the PS3 because PC gaming is so much better!

.......... I wish.

If the PS3 does make a successful market penetration equipped with Bluray, they won't even have to worry about another VHS vs Beta incident.

#8.1 Betaz on 12 Mar 2006 - 03:33

I don't think they are gonna have to worry about it either way. Sony is doing a pretty good job of destroying Bluray already. I know I was a huge Bluray supporter but I'm done with them now.

I just hope Nintendo come up with something quick... I'm slowly losing hope for my childhood consumers

#9.1 Dodgy on 12 Mar 2006 - 18:35

how r u losing faith in Nintendo, they're still as crazy as they used to be

Anything to change to market to make it more fun to play is good news. There wont be much playing of games on Playstations compared to a souly devoted nintendo games machine.

On a PS3 note, im excited to hear what they've got to say, i have no doubt that there console will be visually spectacular and hopefully better play than a 360.

sony is gonna announce that they know nothing lol

#11 antaris on 12 Mar 2006 - 13:33

Maybe they have developed the console design a bit more, and reverted back to the original Dual Shock II controls we all know and love...

Stick with the PC. DX10 and DX10 cards will be out for xmas with Vista release and will blow away PS3 and XBOX360.

#12.1 GamblerFEXonlin on 13 Mar 2006 - 23:09

I tried Vista Beta 2 build 5308. It felt like a resource hog and was very slow. I thought it would be super-snappy since all graphics operations are done by the GPU (120FPS in Quake3 for instance). Hopefully it is because OS and Drivers are Beta.

The interface is complex, dark and glossy (that feels cold), and bloated. I really dislike the new explorer.

I really like XP though... nice blue and green colors.

But yes I can't play games without a keyboard and mouse

Quake 3 is very smooth in 120FPS/Hz
