Oh wow Home for PSP! :D I doubt it'll be as fully featured though.

What time will the DS3 announcement be in GMT? I'm assuming it's around 4PM.

The exhibition booth of EA looks like a cocoon, says EA producer Thomas Zeitner. “Here grows somewhat, here matures something” he says. EA assumes that almost any human is “ready to play”. Video games became to "salon-like". New target groups are gonna be explored more, and guess what? they are targeting casual players now, what a surprise. :p

Skate is presented. As of now you can download the demo on Xbox Live.

Bass-rich trailer of Crysis is on stage.

New "diagonal from back" camera in fifa. Dynamically zooms in and out according to action.

Be a pro mode needs 10 consoles (five for every team). Target is to have 11vs11 matches online (with 22 consoles) by 2010.

What they're saying in the Japanese news thread is that the DS3 info was just Yamauchi who dropped some details in a interview that GT5 would support rumble. Chances for DS3 announcement today diminished.
