Interestingly, the PS3 boomerang controller was a no-show at CES. They had the PS3 mockup consoles sitting behind glass enclosures as usual but the controller was not there at all.

Huh?
It was there, they just put a sign in front of it saying "Conceptual Design"
Maybe they took it down for part of the show?
Keep in mind that Sony has always released their console in Japan first, and then 6-8 months later it lands on N. American shores. And since they had nothing playable at CES, or any significant official announcements, I am pretty skeptical that I'll be able to purchase a PS3 in 2006.Originally posted by: Krazy4Real
I hope the PS3 gets released in 2nd quarter, but I doubt it'll happen. It'll probably come out around Thanksgiving.

There was some video of MGS4 that showed snake and was all real time. It was pretty impressive. You could see the guy changing all of the lighting, moving Snake's face, etc. It was definitely real time and it was DEFINITELY very impressive.
But then look back at the old man's facial animations that sony showed the PS2 was capable of before it was released. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? It was the old man's face that showed a great level of detail and showed off how much emotion a person could show with the PS2 engine. It was also very impressive. It was the first showings I believe of the Emotion engine and was very promising.
Then we got the actual PS2 and the PS2, to this date, is not even NEARLY capable of producing graphics that were as good as the old man's face demo we got of the Emotion engine that the PS2 was capable of.
My point ... take ALL of sony's demos/promises/specs with a huge grain of salt. remember, there still isn't even 1 playable demo for the PS3. the system is far from in its final stages IMO. I know a lot of people on here are tech guys and know that sony overhypes everything, but the large mass market is falling for all this crap when the PS3 most likely won't be able to produce stuff that looks nearly as good as the MGS4 demo I saw.
but if it does, hats off to sony. I just am not falling for the PS3 hype this time around. I did with PS2 and was soley disapointed with that system for its first 6 months or so ...
EDIT:
Link to the video I'm talking about ...
(it's the one from December 07, the second one there)

Something is wrong at Sony if they still cannot provide an actual playable demo at this point. Showing a video at CES? Come on guys.

Why? By the time the PS3 comes out, the 360 will be in its 2nd or 3rd generation of games and they will look just as good if not better. Just look at Gears of War, Fight Night, etc. Meanwhile, I don't expect to see games like MGS or Gran Turismo ready for the PS3 at launch.
In terms of power, the PS3 and the 360 are going to be evenly matched. Its going to be up to which platform that can get developers to get the most out of their machines.

I'm thinking that Splinter Cell: Double Agent on 360 will have comparable graphics to this. After seeing what Ubi Soft did with the old xbox hardware I'm hoping the next version on the 360 will look great.
