I don't know why I'm replying as it seems you're trying to just be nitpicky. However, my post and anything I've ever said simply state they will reveal it in some fashion from simple videos all the way up to playable games. Nintendo and Sony did simple reveals with really nothing much to show in 2005 and personally that is what I expect from Sony this year, but MS could very well do a bit more as I think they are far further on in development.

@bolded:   No, Nintendo did a simple reveal.  Sony, on the other hand, did quite the opposite.  They made the PS3 their entire conference (save for a few minutes on PS2 and FF12) and spoke about it in great detail for about 2 hours.  They detailed the Cell, several minutes of specs, and showed many target videos including the Unreal 3 video, Doc Oc, the Rubber Ducks, the exploding building, the leaf vortex, the London street, the Fight Night demo, the Killzone 2 video, the Motorstorm video, Heavenly Sword, Resistance and several more.  So, BIG difference there between what each company revealed.


Most, if not all of those videos turned out to be just that, videos, not real gameplay.  I would call that a simple reveal.  

No, Nintendo's was simple.  Try watching the Sony conference of E3 '05.  They pretty much dedicated their entire conference to PS3 and certainly gave it the main spotlight.

A deceptive reveal, yes, but hardly simple.
