I am surprised Sony took the all-casual approach.

Do you ? They are Sony and they are in Europe.

Bland.

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

Resistance and Killzone will probably be banned in Germany where the conference took place. That's why they didn't have a large presence. Apparently Helghasts were actually on stage though....

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.

You're right. It will sell 3-4 million. Possibly more. :P

you guys are dreaming. MGS4 was hype as hell, it's barely creeping to 4million, yet LBP, a new IP, will get there. 2 million is my number, that's it.

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.

true
