Forums - Sony Discussion - The Official Sony Leipzig 2008 Press Conference Thread...

People seem to be forgetting that Europe is largely a casual market, especially Germany. I'm sure for them, this conference was LEAGUES better than E3's.



Around the Network

Guess we have to rely on TGS for any interesting game announcements then



Hi, i'm solojohlo and i'm pretty fucking awesome

nothing new but at least the new SKU will boost sales



So no more Sony announcements? This is it? Do they like have another conference or something?

If not, then I'm slightly disappointed with the absence of God of War 3, InFamous, etc... I also expected them to announce more games than just SingStar Disney, SingStar Turkish and EyePet



fuck sake!



Around the Network

Not too much interesting especially if you don't live in Europe, but I think it goes to show that Sony Europe is doing an excellent job. The Singstar games are already popular in Europe and the Disney and Turkish stuff plus ripping old songs from the PS2 will only help that series.

The Eyetoy was another popular device and the new pet game will push that device further for the PS3.

PlayTV is freaking awesome and I wish we could get that here. Ditto on the FREE music streaming service, which will also probably be Euro only b/c of distribution rights and such.

I think Sony has set themselves up for continued success in that region.



My Top 5:

Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger

My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 and Wii

Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.

They better have White Knight Chronicles at TGS i'm getting sik of waiting for news on the game.

I am surprised Sony took the all-casual approach.They havent even showed Resistance 2,Killzone 2 or Motorstorm Pacific.

Bland.

Well,at least we know Heavy Rain graphics are ingame and the new SKU is very good value.
