Sony punishing us all for the leaks. I think tomorrow they have to announce.
Labor Day in the US, so probably not.
.....Surely they are going to stream it.....right?
Yes and they've already confirmed as much.

did someone really confuse 2k the game for a resolution?

A journalist contacted them after they sent out those invites and confirmed that there would be a stream.
Sony’s invitation confirms reports from Gameblog and Vice Gaming yesterday that the company was set to announce a new PS4 next month.
Update: A Sony representative confirmed to Polygon that the company will livestream the PlayStation Meeting, and added, "We'll provide more information as we get closer."
My predictions:
- PS4 Slim launches on September 8th. 500GB $299, 1TB game bundle $349
- Current PS4 model gets $100 price cut.
- Neo launches on either Sept. 29th, Oct. 13th, or Nov. 10th. 1TB $449, 2TB $499. No game bundles.
Let's get this out there, this is where we stand regarding the meeting and livestreaming:

That model is being phased out. It's why less than 6k PS4's were sold in Japan last week. They aren't going to be getting anymore because Sony's replacing it with the slim.
Just watching E3 2005 looks like it might be this kind of style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22ORpAmFBNI&feature=youtu.be&t=28m53s
Not long now peeps, hope Monday and Tuesday go fast.

Sony will clearly delay the event.
There are still plenty of PS4's around the world according to shipment numbers. It would be a stock clearing price.
Has a 2016 release been confirmed? I don't see it happening this year
I asked at the time if this was official confirmation then why not put a name to the representative? Tomorrow is two days before the event and this states more info closer to the date yet still nothing. Have Sony cut it this fine for such a big event before?
The spanish PS Blog confirms that the event will be streamed in spanish for the region so...
I can not advance anything, especially as far as we know the same thing as you.
I'm holding out hope for Driveclub, myself. Last I heard there was confirmation that the title would be updated with new urban tracks from the PSVR Driveclub, so hopefully that means they'll do at least minimal work for Neo as well.
Haha love that you got I meant Phil Harrison not spencerYou know what? I think you've even beaten some of the best Nintendo fan fiction.
Favourite part was the very British handshake haha.
I'd expect Sony to allow retailers handle that however they like rather than doing an official price drop. In recent days/weeks we've seen some major deals in Europe in order to try to clear stock. Dell in the US was essentially selling them for $250 as they'd give you a $100 gift card if you purchased one.
That's starting to conflate multiple things. Games can run in a wide range of software-defined modes based on anything they want. Easy mode? Hard mode? Stereo mode? Surround mode? Most games have logic that differentiates between these just like a Neo title will be able to distinguish between a 1080p display and a 4K display.
... but what we've seen leaked indicates that the hardware has two very distinct execution modes: Base Mode and Neo Mode. The former is used to approximate the performance and resources available to an original PS4 / PS4 slim to execute titles that were certified on older hardware and therefore may have exhibited quirks when running on Neo hardware without this kind of hardware throttling.
Neo mode makes a significant difference in full clock speed, bandwidth, and GPU resources. All titles released in the near future and beyond will have to be certified and will not have the option to run in Base Mode except on non-Neo hardware.
2K is a resolution, not a frame rate. It's also a meaningless distinction in the context of television standards since it's not a native HDTV standard, so anybody talking about a console connected to a consumer television who talks about 2K almost certainly means 1080p. In that vein 4K is widely used by television manufacturers as a shorthand for 2160p which is the relevant UHD/SUHD standard.
brehs2K is the same as 1080p resolution, but has nothing to do with framerate.
For example, at Sony's E3 2005 press conference, Nvidia's CEO said that the RSX graphics processor for PlayStation 3 would have 2K resolution (2K x 1K )which is 1920 x 1080.

Nice work on the gif, but why? As far as I know, Cerny has nothing to do with Playstation since launch. Maybe a gif for PS5 whilst in the dark for the public, but for a mere remodel?

Just because he hasn't been in the spotlight doesn't mean he hasn't been helping out. He was with Kojima on the 10 day tour of various Sony studios to possibly pick out an engine for his game.Nice work on the gif, but why?

and this patent here filed

and this patent here filed just over a week ago seems to possibly be for the base mode in the Neo:
European retailers can control the price they sell at but in the US, Sony would need to cut the price themselves for retailers to sell the system at $249 without gift card/game deals.

Cerny is also the Technical Producer for Death Stranding...

Just saw that myself, August is the publication date.Filed: February 20, 2015
I would say tech demo.Death Stranding stage demo...
So, has Sony fully announced the meeting? I'm late on updates.

Yes and no. They announced it on the Spanish PS blog, but no where else https://blog.es.playstation.com/2016/09/01/no-te-pierdas-nuestra-conferencia-del-7-de-septiembre-y-descubre-el-futuro-del-juego/.
I hope people don't think the event was cancelled. They've had attendees and the venue booked for months. That's not something you back out of because of a leak.
Hopefully it releases sooner than later, got a 10% off any item at best buy ready to go!
Just a question, will a 4k TV be useful for gaming on Neo, (I know games won't run at 4k just wondering if it would help) or is it still far too early for 4k gaming tvs?

ishGames will run at 4K
You seriously need to stop saying that. Sony's own leaked document states that devs were having trouble hitting 4K with a good framerate and Sony advises to aim for a lower res and upscale.Games will run at 4K
There really shouldn't be that many PS4's out there as Sony hasn't channel stuffed. For example, in April they announced that they'd shipped 40m PS4. In May they announced that they'd sold through 40m PS4's. They've handled things in Japan where the stock will be dry around the time the slims are scheduled to come in. I'd think they'd try to do the same with the rest of the world.
Based on the leaks, I think that's a given. 4K native games may not be the rule but we'll still see plenty of games rendered at resolutions better than 1080p and upscaled, and I think the invitation is also a strong clue that Sony is going to make the most of HDR and wide color gamut for titles. Honesty, I'm most excited about improved color representation than I am about the resolution bump.
