That's for Sony's TGSTV videos. They say the video for the press conference will be up "sometime at night today". The press conference already happened, you can choose not to believe it. :p
So, either it's embargoed, or sod all exciting actually happened.

"本日夜公開予定"

Does that mean there's one conference at night?
it's 5:30 pm in tokyo. i doubt they would start a conference past 9 pm local time at the very latest, and that's pretty late i'd say. So, within the next 3 hours or it ain't happening today.

edit: but it's most likely already done ^^^

I just read on Kotaku about the DS3 support for PSP, if you have Resistance 2 and the Resistance PSP game, you can connect your PSP to the PS3 and play the PSP game on the PS3 with the DS3.

That's useless to me, because I'm not buying either of them, but I really hope for full DS3 support in the future. Exciting little spot of news I think.

The way they phrase it it seems like it's a game-by-game basis where the little brother versions of the PS3 games let the PSP version utilize the DS3.

It's not embargoed, it was even liveblogged by Japanese new sites. It was just a 30 min conference where they revealed stuff like the PSP PS Store date and the Ad-Hoc Party beta date. Nothing exciting happened, there were no new game announcements, everything you see at the site is all that Sony has at TGS.

So educate me because I feel dumb: the whole 11 unannounced games thing was bullshit?

Indeed, but I'm hoping it's something they'll build into the FW in the future, it's something I've wanted for years now, since the PSP-2000 with the video out, I've played PSP on TV from time to time, and I'd really like to use a PS3 controller.

But they have two first party conferences?

Today was SCEJ, tomorrow is Sony in general right?
With Level-5 and LBP after?

:lol

Oh dear. So Sony's "wait for TGS!!" and "11 unannounced titles" (EDIT: "Unrevealed as playable titles" it seems) has somewhat fizzled :/

MS's showing was bad enough, it was the XBLA games that saved them IMO. Don't MS or Sony feel the need to droppen zal bomben etc?
 
I thought people had already seen the Team Ico game behind closed doors? Why the hell aren't they showing it to the public yet? Fuck you Sony.

As was explained before, very carefully by several people including Jonnyram, when they said 11 unrevealed playable games for PS3, that didn't mean that all 11 games have never been announced before. They just had not been announced to be playable at TGS. If you check the TGS site, you'll see what all those titles are.

plug and play. why not? if not, get a wireless home network going and connect PS3 to the hub via cable. there you go. but I think the first option works.

Noby looks like garbage. no, not all simplicity equals 'cool art direction'. sometimes it just means shit. and this is it.

Wow, Spelunker. Totally forgot about that game from the NES days.

Nobi Nobi Boy looks odd. Wonder how representative of the gameplay that trailer is... definitely not what I expected after the tech demo reveal they did forever ago.

I'm not sure where you people are getting these strange ideas. There are only 3 events that Sony is holding at TGS. There was a press conference today, which is over. Tomorrow they're having a presentation of WKC with Level 5, and there'll also be a LBP presentation. That's all.
 
what the heck happened to nobu boy....it looked much better on the last showing...now it looks like something that could have been on the nes...

pretty rubbish show from sony

At this point, Team ICO's next project has been built up so much that we're going to scrutinize what they show to death.

God I hate being 'you people', I don't know, read it on here some point over the evening.
It was three fourths right anyway.

I'm glad I go into these conferences without riding the hype train. I can't see how people are disappointed at MS or Sony's conferences. I see a bunch of new games, some of which look cool coming to both consoles.

Manage your expectations, GAF - when will you ever learn?
 
Noby Noby Boy, what the fuck are you?

And wtf at you disappointed people? For there not even being a conference (which was known from the start), there was a lot of really good game footage released. I'm pretty happy about this show so far, but maybe that's because I wasn't expecting crap like FFVII Remake and TRICO (which was already confirmed to be MIA).

Sorry, I haven't been following these threads very closely.

I hope Sony has more lined up. i refuse to believe that they basically have nothing from their Japanese side that can ratchet up some excitement.

Indeed. Looks like I knocked it up in Paint in about 30 seconds. Literally. I'm hoping it's just a teaser joke.

Mizuguchi will not sleep until Lumines has been ported to every platform in existence. Next up: Commodore 64.

This conference (or lack thereof) only reinforces the fact that Sony doesn't give a shit about Japan, and that they have no intention of bettering themselves in that region.

Yeah that's what I was though in comment some pages ago but I was point out.
