Sony Rocks E3 with a press conference (details)
Sony is making a handheld platform that will probably be released around the same time as the PS3, called the PSP. They called it The Walkman of the 21st century. The unit which has not been showed yet, has been confirmed to have the same button layout as the dual shock 2, a widescreen, backlit, higher resolution than GBA, uses mini discs like GCN's that holds up to 1.8 gigs and can be used for so many things. I imagine the ability to download games and MP3's onto the discs and so on...
The new model of PS2 comes out in June bundled with the Network Adapter. EA Sports titles are now online exclusive for PS2 this year and next year. MGS3 is PS2 Exclusive as is the next Grand Theft Auto. Sony also introduced the Eye-Toy, a camera for the PS2 that you connect through USB and it sits ontop of your TV. It's a motion sensor camera as well and will be used for games that need you to move around the room like that boxing game in the arcade that allows you to duck and sway around... the best thing about this is that developers can even incorporate this for online gaming so you can see who you are playing against... "PSP" Specifications Platform name: PSPTM Display: Wide screen (16:9) TFT LCD with backlight (480 x 272 dots) Disc medium: "UMD" 60mm optical secured ROM disc with cartridge (1.8GB) Video CODEC: MPEG4 Graphics: 3D Polygon/NURBS Sound: PCM (built-in stereo speakers, stereo headphone output) I/O: USB 2.0, Memory StickTM slot Battery: Rechargeable (lithium-ion) Built in stereo speakers !!! More as it comes.... Sony Online is really shaping up to be something else... Sony software however, seemed to be a little bit low key as there were not a whole lot of games at the press conference today, but that will all change once E3 starts tommorow!

A Disk Drive on a hand held? Wouldnt it get too hot to handle after a few hours??
Sounds great though, the new features for PS2 sounds fantastic. Having Mo-Cap is fecking GREAT! (that game is called Mo-Cap Boxing Digi, I beat it once, I was sooo Tired that i couldnt walk after it because of all the ducking and dodging, my legs wer in purgatory ) Ah Mo-cap, so much fun, theres another Mo-Cap arcade game i know of, its a Cop Shooter game which is like Time Crisis a bit as you duck and hide, but you have to move (can hurt your legs a little too) Cant Wait |

Yeah i totally agree with that, GTA and MGS really nee to be a Playstation thing. And i know the PSP will rock. i will really need it for those car trips where i part my PS2, or at school, have it on mute, and play MGS or FFVII like..erm...that guy said. Ohh, during school, your teacher has a huuge lecture on the american revolution..ZZZZZZZ, well you could just play PSP. If only it had a recorder option..(like those Yak baks) then you could record the lecture and just use it in the test (the infomation) without studying! well enough about School.....uggggghhhh that just makes a chill down my spine. anyone know release date????????? Late 2004??????
