jerry Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 They should bribe the audience to be more enthusiastic, just like how MS did at GDC conference by giving out free TVs. :D 585929586[/snapback] Correction: HDTVs & 1000 HDTVs to be precise. But they didnt reveal Xbox 360 then. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerry Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 Gamespot posted that sony confirmed a 2006 release. 585929598[/snapback] Beat me to it: From Gamespot: LOS ANGELES--Today saw the second of the big three console makers announce their next-generation platform. At its pre-E3 press conference, Sony Computer Entertainment gave the world its first look at the PlayStation 3, as it now is officially called. It also confirmed that the console will arrive in 2006 and will use Blu-Ray discs as its media. The name was not unexpected, since Sony had been running an extensive teaser-ad campaign prepping the public for the PlayStation 3. The company had laid a blanket of posters around the Los Angeles Convention Center, site of the Electronic Entertainment Expo (aka E3). Bus stalls and billboards around the convention center proclaimed "Prepare for Chang3" in the distinctive PlayStation font with partial shots of the Dual Shock controller's square-circle-X-Y buttons. The same message was also borne on static-adhesive stickers, which were stuck to the screens of the televisions of many hotel rooms...hopefully by the maids. GameSpot will update this story with more details from and complete video coverage of the Sony Computer Entertainment press conference soon. So now we know ... #1 Backwards compatible #2 PlayStation 3 is the official name #3 It is going to use Blu-Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
