PlayStation.Blog Team @ the Tokyo Game Show

363 0

Just a heads up to all of you: The PlayStation.Blog team is in Tokyo this week holding things down at TGS! What this means is our publishing frequency is going to be a little less than usual this week. We’re hoping to get some cool photos, maybe some video and other material from the show that we will in turn share here with you. Until then, hang tight and keep a lookout for something in the near future.

  • anecdotally a lot of folks i talk to are PS2 RPG diehard youngins who are waiting for prob a $299 or less system with lots of RPGs to play. So PS3 mass market is still a ways off IMO.

  • upon further reflection I think in this industry what we’re experiencing now with blogs and forums and fanboys and posters is a lot of guerilla marketing and antimarketing. Its a poisonous damned if you do damned if you dont environment. The only way to get past this is with that elusive killer app or sleeper hit, something unique to the platform that is must-have. Then it has to be followed up. Stop announcing games and features 2 years in advance. That just drives hype burnout.

  • it takes a worried mind to sing a worried song…..don’t worry be happy. material is just material….in this short span of life enjoy the fruits of your labour and get the soother behind you. now i know what a mature gamer is he enjoys his machine and knows where the destructive whiners are coming from. enough connectivity to the blog game for today and into the titan of a machine known as ps3. stop whining….go BEYOND.

  • U can see the Tokyo Games show on G4 i’m just happy for the Dualshock controller

  • Fantastic. Yeah, right.

    Apparently the same OLD rumble technology will be used. Wow, how amazing (!).

    What a waste of time to be honest. When Sony had the chance to take advantage of TouchSense, they simply didn’t.

    With the Halo 3 hype-machine coming I don’t see what Sony have planned either. The machine is too damn expensive and I can’t afford it yet.

    I’d love to get it, but there seems to be a lack of games. Microsoft ‘buy’ exclusives. Why don’t Sony do the same? It’ll help with their sales.

  • You see, the reason why the PS3 is doing so crap in sales is because Sony doesn’t give a [DELETED] about the number of games coming out. They just want it to maximise blu-ray sales.

    I want a gaming machine. Thats why I would pay for a PS3. For games. Not for movies.

    “We need to seek co-operation with a US publisher – we need local content,” Mr Sasaki said at the Tokyo Game Show. “Our strength is in role-playing games and fantasy titles, so it is a bit difficult to appeal to the US market.”

    You guys need to take notice before another company does.

  • coffeebreak chatter or is it water cooler chatter…did you know that phil harrison said that they cannot make enough ps2’s..and at the tokyo press conference it was announced that in the eighth year the ps2 has sold over 120 million…the ps3 is at 5 million and the psp over 23 million. these guys are good. nice to be a part of the winning team as an owner of the ultimate ps3. goodbye and good gaming

  • Watching the 1up Show this morning and Shane goes on to describe the new DS3 rumble at the 14:25 mark.

    To paraphrase:

    “I could tell where there where (Explostions) based on what part of the controller was rumbling.”
    “It believe its slightly better than the 360 rumble.”
    “Think about rumble in stereo.”

  • a challenge to all ….where do your truly stand….who are you truly representing…what is your real handle…do you really care about the ps3 and its success. here is my answer and it seems appropiate given that this is a ps3 blog….my sony inventory; SONY HD THAT UPSCALES TO l080i…. sony bravia 5.l that upconverts to l080p….1 psp l000…1 psp slim….a sony walkman…a sony ericcson cellphone…sony high end earphones….sony psp2….this is a not to be a blowhard but rather to say loud and clear I AM A SONY BOOSTER. OH YEA AND MANY SONY MOVIES LIKE SPIDERMAN 1 and 2. did i mention that my sony vhs player is still working after l5 years without the need for repair. much to do tonight….goodnight and good gaming.

  • update; must also mention my sony digital camera and my sony dvd movie camera. wow i am now thinking what would i do without my credit card. good gaming to you all

  • I’ve always wanted a PS3. With rumble. So.. I’ll have to wait and make Sony dissappointed. I’m buying
