Its just there have been recent threads here and elsewhere discussing this like it was a reality

Welcome to GAF

 

[Striek]

It seems like Sony may have some sort of "showroom" setup at their booth to demo PS3's broader entertainment capabilities.

http://www.gameshout.com/news/ps3_sony_e3_press_conference/article5643.htm

Can't wait. I think Sonys going to surprise everyone with the depth of PS3s OS.

this thread needs more hype

:lol nice.


Also, for a guess at one of Sonys surprise, I'm saying

Spoiler

PS3 RAM upgrade

.

Welcome to GAF

LOL - thanks :lol


Actually, im a long time lurker, first time poster.

 

[kaching]

So is Sony themselves not broadcasting the conference through their site?

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

It's just not Tuesday yet. The Nintendo parade will probably start around 5 a.m.

Depending on the level of announcements at both events.

I predict this thread winning by ~500 replies and 15K views.

They'd do better with a larger bus to their existing RAM.

Or both ... though I have to say that I'm a bit pessemistic about Sony upping the specs.

Please prove me wrong and bump the specs Sony, kthnxbai

 

[BatiGOOOOOOL]

How much time left until the first megaton drops?

Is it that important to you?

Never underestimate the power of

 

[AniHawk]

OH SHIT! I'll be home in time to see this! I thought I'd be missing out. SWEET.

 

[Wollan]

The Nintendo thread will overshadow this one when it comes to posts.
Both will equal in awesomeness though. (that wasn't a question)

 

[Scrow]

Is it that important to you?

it's important to me.

the more posts and views a thread has for a particular conference further validates my loyalty to that company. there's a lot riding on these sorts of things for me.

 

[robo_robo]

Any place that streams S-E conference?

 

[The Abominable Snowman]

Is it that important to you?

Yes. I don't care about the actual news at the conferences (Well, I guess I do a little bit...) but numbers are always exciting. It's like a Football or Basketball game in extreme, week-long slow-mo

 

[Ponn]

Three launch PS3 games from Activision alone:

Thanks Activision!

Marvel Ultimate Alliance +1 for PS3 launch title buy

Now I just need one or two more PS3 games and FFXII upscaled and my holiday game playing will be more than satisfied.

oh.....kay.....

 

[Dahbomb]

I wonder if we will see some VF5 action at the conference. I doubt this though, if anything it will be Tekken.

Of course we will.

 

[Dahbomb]

Oh wow, longest day ever.

I woke up 9 AM and thought it was like 12 by now, but it's only 10 AM.

 

[Phranky]

So why is the Sony E3 conference thread the only one stickied?

 

[Wollan]

Because it's happening soon.

They did with PSP.

 

[Striek]

Is the new MGS4 going to be played at the Sony conference?

Its probably not going to be played at the whole of E3.

They did with PSP.

And PS2. Precedent

 

[sharukins]

So why is the Sony E3 conference thread the only one stickied?

because its happening first. they will do the same before Nintendo and then MS

 

[PhatSaqs]

dont cry

:lol

 

[kallisto76]

did u know about Quantic Dream's "Heavy Rain" PS3 Exclusive?

 

[Razoric]

did u know about Quantic Dream's "Heavy Rain" PS3 Exclusive?

is it exclusive to PS3?

 

[kallisto76]

it should be pc and ps3, according to 1up:

256/256 is plenty. The bus could bottleneck it though.

But I agree, spec upgrade is definitely unlikely.

 

[Striek]

did u know about Quantic Dream's "Heavy Rain" PS3 Exclusive?

! When was this announced?

I thought they were working on Omikron 2 (whoooooohoooooooooooo!) and "Infraworld", both PS3/X360.

 

[Lakitu]

On that 1up page, it says that Heavy Rain is a sequel to a certain action game?

 

[Phranky]

dont cry

...

We've been waiting months for E3 and tomorrow isn't considered soon? They're going to be stickied anyway, so I don't see the problem.

 

[kaching]

When did Sony release WIP shots of Warhawk, KZ, Motorstorm, etc. in relation to last year's conference - was it before or after the conference? It'd be nice if we started getting some media for games to be shown at the conference beforehand.

 

[Mooreberg]

I don't remember seeing anything of Killzone/Motorstorm/etc until after the conference. The videos were the first that anyone (not under some NDA) had seen of those.

 

[Lord Error]

Heavy Rain, I read that somewhere the other day, on an incomplete game page, before the game was announced - might actually be on 1up now that I think about it.

 

[kaizoku]

is this on in like 7 hours?

 

[GeoramA]

http://www.gamespot.com/e3/index.html

yep, 7 hours exactly

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

That's akin to asking why we bothered to make a thread with official conference times and a nice little ticker:

midnight in uk on the 9th - well gee, someone could mean at night or literally as the 9th starts. I get confused easily

 

[Dahbomb]

Does anyone know of Capcom's conference or expo? Information will be greatly appreciated.

Quite good.

I've heard that Capcom hasn't its own conference this year but will show titles during the platform holders conferences.

 

[dock]

Anyone know how long these conferences last? One hour? Two?

I have to work tomorrow morning so I can't stay up too late, and it starts at midnight here.

I'm in the same position (minus the bit about having to get up for work), and I'm hoping it'll be an hour. But it may go up to 90 minutes, tops, I'd say. I'd like to be in bed by 1

Square Enix
1:00 - 2:30 PM, with reception beginning at 11:30 AM

wasnt able to find the length of the Sony, but from last year, I believe it was 90 minutes. I'm sure someone knows for sure and can chime in. Ill still be at work at 4:00 so im just gonna keep up with it here at worka nd stay a bit late.

It was an hour and fifty minutes last year, though that was running a little over time. I doubt this year will be as long.
