Yea but look at his face :lol :lol :lol

 

[Tom Penny]

It's not a price drop. It's the new Jax or Twisted Metal....

 

[TTP]

That's scary.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Time to ride the new game horse and drop the price drop bit now. That or we talk about the year 2012.

that's also "just" a psn game.

I'm betting my money on the new Hannah Montana Game, exclusive for the PsThree. NPD will shatter.

I wonder what real David Jaffe thinks of Bizarro Jaffe who is out there tarnishing his name. :lol =x

Has the fake Jaffe told anyone to go fuck their mother yet? If not, I'd say its a plus in the PR department.

 

[Captain Pants]

I wonder if the announcement has anything to do with this:

Sony Getting Into Cloud Computing?

Sony and Stanford University are already running a distributed computing project on the PS3. It’s called Folding@home. Their next step? According to a trademark registered in the USPTO it looks like Sony has plans for Cloud Computing.



PS Cloud was registered by Sony Computer Entertainment for use with a cloud computing data center management software, communications software, broadcasting services, and a long list of other terms.



What can Sony do with Cloud Computing? With permission from a squad of volunteers they could allow users to share demos and other downloadable content. An idealistic solution to the widely publicized PSN bandwidth fees problem. PlayStation 3 game hosting responsibilities could be split up or the PS Cloud could lead to a cloud console like On Live where games are stored and rendered on far away servers. The PSP already has remote play connectivity with the PS3. Looking (and dreaming) one step forward it would be awesome if Sony the PS Cloud was used to stream music, movies, and technologically impossible games to the PSP by just sending a video stream and transferring button input online.

Excuse me, but Keighley doesn't know shit.

Wasn't he the one that hyped up the collective of GAF about two announcements during GDC that were nothing, really? Zelda on DS and CoD: WaW 2? Zelda, maybe, but CoD: WaW 2 was already known to be coming.

I'll believe it when I see it.

 

[gofreak]

Has there been some new info since the Kotaku article and Smarthouse's chinese-whispery copy-and-paste?

If not, why is this thread still even open? :lol

The announcements still existed. This isn't a qualitative statement ("secret", etc), it's a factual one. There will either be a price cut or not.

 

[Dante]

Those are the scariest things ever.

 

[Vinci]

Nano-cloud speculation?

 

[DMeisterJ]

So we'll see tomorrow then if Keighley is right or wrong.

Should be interesting either way.

I don't think what he said was very sensationalist. Crazy gaf was just ignoring all logic on that one.

Shiiiiiit, game over for this thread.

GAF HYPED GAF.

He clearly said surprise, not megaton. No one was expecting a MW2 teaser, thus, it is a surprise. GAF is full of idiots who hype the smallest shit into big news.

 

[RSTEIN]

Aha! Sony only ruled out a price drop... a statement made only to deceive... what they're about to announce is...



A PRICE INCREASE!


$799 baby.

 

[Lince]

OMFG IS THIS REAL?

 

[Arkham]

What kind of ungodly creature is this?

Aw, they're cute though. Well, apart from the owly mouse-ful guy on the left. They look like barn owls to me.

 

[comedy bomb]

I new GAFFERS were strange creatures, but I had no idea.......

 

[Mr.Squirrel]

lol wtf :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[Zoe]

I can't tell if the owl is choking or is just trying to shove down more of the rodent :lol

No, he hyped an announcement that was similar to Gears 2 announcement at the previous GDC. And MW2 turned out to be exactly that. But people turned it into a "megaton" announcement which he never claimed it'd be. The same thing is going on here. Sony said they'd be making an announcement tomorrow. They didn't say it'd be a PS3 announcement or that it'd be a "big" announcement. But yet people are now expecting a big PS3 announcement and when it's not that they'll claim to be disappointed again while ignoring that it never was supposed to be anything like that.

 

[sloppyjoe_gamer]

They announce a new PS3 firmware update that finally brings software BC for all PS2 games.

They justify the price staying the same by saying that the PS3 is now the ultimate gaming machine allowing you access to the hundreds of Classic PS2 titles in addition to the great PS3 games of today, and whats coming in the Fall.

If you still do not want a PS3 at that point, they ease the pain by announcing that you can still play all the incredible PS2 games by picking up a PS2 for a new low price of $99.

Do i win? :lol

 

[OldJadedGamer]

He clearly said surprise, not megaton. No one was expecting a MW2 teaser, thus, it is a surprise. GAF is full of idiots who hype the smallest shit into big news.

Actually, I think everyone was expecting it because Fourzerotwo recently said they were working on the sound and call out the title by it's exact name. The game wasn't a big surprise at all.

 

[Acosta]

As many clever gaffers has noted already, the announcement will be a 99$ PS2.

Don't say we didn't warn you.

 

[Keikoku]

No, he hyped an announcement that was similar to Gears 2 announcement at the previous GDC. And MW2 turned out to be exactly that.

Not really, we didn't officially knew that Gears 2 was coming before GDC 08, we knew that COD6 was.

 

[Returners]

Not really, we didn't officially knew that Gears 2 was coming before GDC 08, we knew that COD6 was.

You're kidding right?

I support the BC argument. (and then I can stop worrying about my 60GB breaking and not be able to replace it)

Price Drop is obviously welcome in this economy. Given that the announcement is at the end of fiscal, it might be something related to that.

 

[lupinko]

You're kidding right?

Don't worry, he's trying to make a comeback after always surrending to PS3.

 

[Parl]

(Year of the PS3)

 

[Fersis]

Listen to this man, and you will not be dissapointed.

 

[Phreaker]

I can't tell if the owl is choking or is just trying to shove down more of the rodent :lol

Yeah, and what's the one in the middle saying the whole time? The one on the far right moves freaky too.

 

[Micromegas]

Do i win? :lol

Ya, but you forgot to add the Netflix streaming thing. Duh.

 

[gregor7777]

You're kidding right?

That's correct though, isn't it? Gears 2 was announced really late IIRC, but I can't remember if it was GDC or not.

He said officially.

 

[jmdajr]

man.......... that's fucked up

 

[Chinner]

Listen to this man, and you will not be dissapointed.

yeah but WHAT IF

 

[gkryhewy]

yeah but WHAT IF

Did you just say Kingdom Hearts 3 PS3 exclusive?!?! I saw that stealth edit!!

 

[BobTheFork]

I need to go pray... and cry

"As we have stated previously, we do not have plans for a PS3 price drop, and any rumors to that effect are false and are the result of speculation," the statement from SCEA public relations manager Al De Leon reads. "SCEA remains focused on the long-term momentum of PS3. With the industry's best software lineup this year, combined with our most aggressive marketing campaign to date, we remain confident in our approach and the value we're delivering with PS3."

[VibratingDonkey]

What is going on!?? Creature to the left is terrifying. Next fellow enhances the impression by totally freaking me out with his vacant stare and Hannibal Lecter impression. Other two "hey a camera! yo bro let's do this! *WHIEEEOOW* *blink*"

And it looks like a chickenweasel, the ultimate paradox.

 

[VegaShinra]

There are rumors now of a Sony motion controller. The author said he labeled it rumor but knows it's 100% true. It's from a banned site, though.

 

[elohel]
