Whatever it is, it outta be good. I just hope it is ICO or God of War related. Home beta will be welcomed as well. Killzone 2 wont be a bad choice either. R2 is something I can only dream of though.

Ju6644d ago

LOL. Go buy a $49 HD-DVD player from M$ and hook it up now :) Don't complain that there is no driver, there are no disk to play anyway (oops, I'm wrong here ... LOL ... run ducking).

Violater6644d ago

The long haul to E3.
It will not seem so long this year, as we will actually have GAMES to PLAY and not just talk about.

faisdotal6644d ago (Edited 6644d ago )

Edit:

I reckon it's the R* new PS3 Exclusive franchise.

I for one hope it's not something as random as table tennis. (><)

SUP3R6644d ago

I'm thinking it might be the slim/lite with a price cut.
It'll be a 40GB slim/lite to replace the current 40GB at $300> but the 80GB will remain as is at least until next year.
I can only hope lol.

whoelse6644d ago

The PS3 isn't even 18 months old and you think they'll release a slim version. What ever happened to the 10 year life cycle. The slim wont come to at least 2009.

SUP3R6644d ago (Edited 6644d ago )

Sorry I meant <$300...
but why not a redesign lol.
New smaller, much cooler 45nm cell processor.
It's much cheaper to manufacture the entire console now compared to launch, so a price cut is understandable.
It'll increase visual appeal by folds especially in Japan.
I think it needs it.

Lifendz6644d ago

Home Beta, Resistance 2 Demo, FFXII demo, FFXIII vs demo, GOW III this year, in-game xmb, expanded functionality for PSN: videos, music, tv shows, etc, and...ummm.....I think that's it. Oh yeah, Shadow of the Colluses II, Infamous, and the Agency.

MADGameR6643d ago

ANOTHER bullet to Microsoft!

Sarick6643d ago (Edited 6643d ago )

The 6 million dollar man wasn't even in his 40's and they upgraded him.

Key point here is with the cost reductions to manufacture a ps3. Why not upgrade the design to farther reduce cost. They could even reintroduce full backwards PS2 compatibility through software on the PS3 40G.

Let's just hope it's not like MS last big announcement. Something to do with digital video downloads.

syanara6643d ago

ok dude HD-DVD lost the war already and blu-ray is the next format its already been decided MS even dropped hd-dvd and toshiba (the guys who make hd-dvd) are dropping it too.

tethered6643d ago

@ syanara
Because you cant see a joke, let me fill you in on something.

mighty_douche was joking.

solidt126643d ago

I really hope he isn't that slow. Great joke..

byaaface6637d ago

this post is sort of stupid+un-needed since obviously sony will have an announcement(ITS E3!!!) and this post is unbelievably vague. next time try not to put something up that is as stupid as "Breaking News!Tomorrow the Sun is going to rise!!!".

conjurdevil6644d ago

They have been holding back no announcements at GDC whch they rocked at last year which just indicates they are planning something I am not expecting anything because whenever you do in the end you feel disappointment but am certainly interested to see what they bring up.

decapitator6644d ago

It will be interesting, I know that much. I recently saw the Gametrailers tv show wtih Steinberg PR vice president of Sony and Evan of Naughty Dog and they seemed very optimistic.

conjurdevil6644d ago (Edited 6644d ago )

for some reason EA,Sqaure Enix,Ready At Dawn,Naughty Dog,Insomniac and many other companies are very optimistic about ps3...maybe they know something we dont yet.

EDT:Could it be crysis?!

decapitator6644d ago

Thats because these guys usually know something and know whats going on internally before we the public have any idea on what the hell is going on.
Crysis is coming, you can quote me on it. But as to when it will hit is anyone's guess. EA loves them money, and there is no way in hell they would pass up an opportunity to make some bucks on the PS360 or if one that is.

General Pinky6644d ago

MORE WATING GUYS...SORRY...YOU KNEW WHEN YOU GOT THE WAITSTATION IT WAS MADE FOR THE WAITING...HAHAHAH...THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT...SEE YOU NEXT YEAR WHERE WE WILL HAVE SOME NEW GAMES...

robbo9186644d ago

Go find The Brain as you are in dire need of your partner! Also while you are looking for The Brain, find a caps lock key as yours is obviously broken.

ruibing6643d ago

Jeez, do you call Christmas the Waitmas then? It's not like Sony can control when E3 is held.

mikeslemonade6643d ago

The PS3 will be revealed to play Xbox 720 and WiiHD games.

Forbidden_Darkness6644d ago (Edited 6644d ago )

Heres what they will show off at E3 most likely:

Motostorm 2
Killzone 2
8 days
Getaway 3
Resistance 2
Team Ico project
Team Siren Project
NcSoft Project
InFamous
LittleBigPlanet
Gran Turismo 5
Team Ninjas next project
Heavy Rain
Game Republic Project
The Agency
God of War 3
La Noire
Naughty Dog Project
Final Fantasy Xlll and vs. Xlll
and ect.

kosha6644d ago

naughty dogs project is bound to be uncharted 2 as the first one was so succesful

cant wait till e3

StarieMichie6643d ago

Pfft. I wish they would tell us more about Heavy Rain, but that's not going to happen. I want that game so badly, but still don't know what it's about (which makes me laugh at myself for wanting it).

Foxx776643d ago

To add to that list, probably SOCOM: Confrontation will be shown if not near release and then Zipper will probably show off what they have been hard at work on.

solidt126643d ago

I will make sure I am wearing a Diaper if they plan on showing GOD3 at E3.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde33d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy34d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Relientk7735d ago

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga35d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199234d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga34d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman34d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger34d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box35d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion34d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7235d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7535d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit35d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14935d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7735d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
