The only announcement I would care about is GT5 releasing this year.

I get the feeling lots of people are confusing expectations and wishes.

- PS3 revision announced
- price drop
- more info on their games
- at least one surprise announcement (probably won't be big though).

Oh, and no release date for GT5, at least not for 2009.

I was pretty accurate

I think we're all agreed that Sony is bringing in some form of PS3 hardware revision, and that it will be announced on the 18th of August?

I want the VGChartz members to put down their preidctions as to what the hardware revision will entail, and any associated price cut.

I expect that the hardware revision will be a PS3 slim, but that all the 'leaked photos' were not authentic. - Check (I think?)

I expect it to have a harddrive in the range of 80-120 gb - Points for Scottie

I expect that it will not be backwards compatible (PS2 sales are making a ton of money for Sony) - More points for Scottie

I expect there will be no price cut announced. Sony will try to have a profitable quarter for the S/vaio division, which would be impossible with a $100 price cut and very unlikely with a $50 cut. They also want to keep a price cut in reserve in case MS tries to counter the slim. - Haha, wrong here. Very wrong.

Oh, and no editing after the announcement :P
