It's a "cross", so it's a little bit of one and a little bit of the other.
Behold the brand new PS3.

If it's a cross product it should be about the power of a PS8!

Source? Have they given any indication this won't just be a hardware meeting?

I hope so. :/
Didn't Colin from ign say red dead would be there? Correct me if I'm wrong
One or two at most imo. I am expecting we will just see more/new footage of games already announced with before and after comparisons. Stuff like that.

Did anyone that already has the Ps4 slim took the exact measurement of it?
CottonWolf

I could see Deep Down, seeing as it's announced, but showing Red Dead is the most un-Rockstar move imaginable. I'm not saying it's impossible, but I'd be shocked.
Sadly I don't think we will be using #colinwasright for this one.

When have consoles ever seen a major spec upgrade from the previously leaked specs. Like never?
The PS4 RAM amount upgrade doesn't really count as that was largely trivial from a technical perspective.
It would be nice if it happens but I cant see it.

That would be good enough for me. Not interested in the Hardware, but since this doesn't take place all too late for us Euros, i guess i'll check it out.

They weren't leaked, but the PS3 went from not having a GPU in the original dev kits to having one, which is a pretty major upgrade. It resulted in a year long delay though.
More recently Xbox One got a CPU clock boost in final over original leaks.

I'm sure Rockstar could be persuaded with an envelope stuffed with local currency.
Around E3, there was a rumour that the planned Red Dead demo was dropped from the Sony conference because of the Florida night club attack, that had just happened. If is rumour is true, then I could believe R* will show the game of at the event on the 7th.
The potential of a new Red Dead has me more excited than the reveal of the Neo to be honest.

So is PSVR confirmed to work on OG PS4's, or did they make that a 4k thing now?

These were the games revealed 3 years ago.
Knack (Japan Studio)
Killzone: Shadow Fall (Guerilla Studios)
Driveclub (Evolution Studios)
Infamous: Second Son (Sucker Punch)
The Witness (Jonathan Blow)
Deep Down (working title from Capcom)
A new Final Fantasy title from Square Enix
Diablo III (Blizzard Entertainment)
Watch Dogs (Ubisoft)
Destiny (Bungie)
Sony knows business these days. They would be really foolish to not have any new game announcements.

It works on OG & Neo.

What about that quote says "insider" to you?

Nice.
FWIW Adam Boyes shut down that rumour, explicitly saying that the whole thing had been set in stone for months.
Dee Dah Dave

Yeah but the PS3 was just a dumb design all around, and they realised the system would be useless without a dedicated GPU. I think initially they planned to use 2 Cells (lol).
The XB1's clock boost was miniscule, and barely changed the teraflop number.
With Neo people are hoping for a new CPU, which would require an APU redesign. You can't just do that in 5 minutes. Unless they already had a 'plan b' in testing.
Or a major teraflop increase via a huge clock increase. That's technically doable with the Neo's 480 equivalent, but the power and heat profile would be wildly different. Making that work in a console sized box, and with power regulations etc might be a bit much.
Final option for more teraflops is an increase in CU count, which again requires an entirely new APU.

Might need to stop sniffing glue
If accurate yeah. Though, I think I recently read some old info somewhere which was worded oddly about Neo and PSVR. It really wasn't clear about what the relation was specifically in regard to Neo.
Every game that we have seen (gameplay videos, pics, etc.) since the PSVR announcement was running on an ordinary OG PS4.

What? Neo hasn't even been officially announced yet, of course it works with OG ps4s
I'm sure Rockstar could be persuaded with an envelope stuffed with local currency.
GTA V made a $1bn in 3 days.
I think more than a brown envelope with cash would be needed to convince them to reveal their own highly anticipated game
I think that bogus E3 R* rumour has sent people for a loop

He is essentially stating he doesn't think RDR3 will be shown. I wanted to know if this is based on insider info or a guess.

Neo was announced by Sony before E3.
This time around they have PSX coming soon after so they won't show anything new, I believe.
Their time is already limited between PSVR, the Slim, and Neo + other details.
What they can do is showing already released games or soon to be released ones like FFXV. That should probably be enough for people to understand how much better Neo is.

Acknowledged, yes. Announced, no.

PSX will be fine. I'd expect to see more of what's announced here and some smaller titles at that event. This event is a showcase for Neo. You don't hold back for something that'll be in December.
The slim will not require much time at all. It is a revision. PSVR will get some time. But not much. Likely a sizzle reel and some discussion of upcoming titles. This event is about Neo
User123456

To be honest, I think the only reason they haven't "announced" it yet is because they want to have that "Apple style available now" announcement.
"Acknowledging" the Neo was them basically announcing the thing while still being able to say that they technically didn't, so they'll be launching it right after the real announcement.
……forgetit

I guess technically, they just confirmed it exists and then said they weren't talking about it. Doesn't change the fact that it would be crazy to think PS VR is exclusive to it when we don't even know when it's coming out or what it looks like and PS VR comes out in a month and a half.
ShadowKingpin

VR isn't exclusive to it. The games will just look a lot nicer on Neo.
Dee Dah Dave

Rockstars new game would be a nice showing. It's not really their style though and they are too cool these days to feel the need to hang on to the coattails of a platform holder. They just silently upload a new trailer to Youtube and the world goes mad lol.
Having said that, the PS4 is dominant so they may do.

Just think about it, have they ever made an event this gen without new software talk attached to hardware stuff?
Even their PSVR GDC price talk had a game reveal (Battlefront X Wing VR Mission)

Hopefully they'll also be clear on how much of a benefit it is/isn't to PS VR.

Yeah it's a tricky tightrope they'll have to walk to big up the new console but not belittle the current PS4 either. It makes me wonder if they'll even really talk about the improvements to graphics as much as we all expect, with side by side comparisons etc. If comparisons look really great doesn't it not also devalue the current PS4 in the same breath? I'm really curious to see how they tackle all this.
