Echo cancellation, I guess? It's just a microphone, not speakers, from what I can tell.

Also, there's a rumor floating about that the previously Japanese-only PS3 version of Eternal Sonata will be hitting North America. Unfortunately, NeoGAF is totally hosed atm, so I can't verify.

That's some good news for PS3 owners.

If Sony shows off God of War 3, they won E3, and it MAY make up for losing FFXIII as an exclusive ( Not really though)

Alright, I've got to get ready for my 2 o'clock meeting. You're gonna have to find the links for the Sony press conference on your own! Someone please volunteer to start a wrapup thread like I did with MS and Nintendo press conferences.

I don't think so. I love love love God of War and it is probably my 2nd favorite series but that M$ conference was pretty great. The new UI looks great, Netflix, FFXIII, Gears, Left4Dead.

Sony will need something epic.

The only thing they could do that would be epic enough would be an exclusive FF7 remake. And, let's face it: that would be multi-platform, too.

However, they also don't need to be epic to make me happy. Announcements about HDMI-CEC, Bluetooth A2DP stereo, or 1080p movie downloads would do it for me.

Some of that stuff is interesting and looks fun, but I cannot hide the fact that I'm disappointed overall. A new Mario and Zelda--ok we get it--thanks. I dont think anyone doubted that Nintendo was working on those sequels but how about giving us a nibble? Even if it's just a logo like Rockstar did with GTA: China Wars?

There's lots of Rumors of Team ICO involvement.

I'm sure Sony has something up their sleeve. I'd be psyched for FFVII remake even though I'm in the middle of playing through the original again.

I'm guessing their big announcements will be GoW 3 and the music/video store. Then we'll hear ever more about Home, Resistance 2, and so on. I also expect a bit of KZ2 video pimping, but honestly, does anyone besides the hard-core Sony fanboy contingent really care about that game so much?

S-E is probably firmly on their poop list right now, and Sony probably wouldn't announce an exclusive FF7 remake today even if it was happening. That FF13 thing really did hurt.

 

[ChaoZ]

nvm

 

[NikolaeVarius]

Resistance 2 is SEXY. That has to be the biggest moving thing I have ever seen rendered. Its even bigger than Shadow of Collosus enemies.

EPIC

 

[bl4ckfl4g]

Resistance 2 looks pretty good.

 

[NikolaeVarius]

This is the greatest sales powerpoint I have ever seen. They should use LBP for everything.

Yeah that looks freaking cool but the actual game doesn't interest me at all.

I liked how he emphasized that the bigger brands usually came later in the Playstation's life.

wow and i thought the Nintendo and MS conferences were underwhelming...

I'm sure they got big news coming, besides nothing could be worse than that Nintendo Conference.

 

[Queasy]

I'm back

OOOO...just took a shot at the MS Live Arcade selection being "filled with games nobody wants to play".

 

[herkulease]

I'd rather watch cnn who's repeats stories over and over. So far is this is a snooze fest. The resistance 2 video was boring. I know you want to show "Scale"(sony's new catch phrase) but atleast throw in some more action.

On dial-up with the laptop at work so no streaming here. Any news on this revamped PS3 coming out in the fall?

 

[Queasy]

Showing off Gran Turismo TV. PPV TV through Turismo: Prologue?

No word on when it is coming out.

 

[ChaoZ]

Fat Princess sounds like win already.

 

[Queasy]

Talking about Home...expanded beta.

That presentation for Home was underwhelming. It doesn't look like it has changed significantly from previous announcements. Still looks like Second Life with Sony branding.

Nothing about new hardware or changes that I know of.
