373 5

Here we are: The Main Event. Starting at 11am (Pacific, 7pm BST), we’ll be live blogging the PlayStation E3 Press Conference right here in this space. The questions, the predictions, the rumors – all will be answered soon!

To make things quicker (and to prevent you from having to refresh the page), we’ll be using CoverItLive, just like our live chats with developers. However, unlike those chats, we’re turning off the comments pane to keep things focused on the course of events. Of course, we value your feedback – and so please use the comments area below, like with any other blog post.

Set your timer – we’ll be starting up soon!

  • MMO… with monthly fees??? That’s the entire reason I passed on 11… Is that going to be the case for this game too?

  • I don’t care much for the announcement of FFIV. I’m a FF fan but c’mon give us 13 first. What a joke.

  • To play devil’s advocate on the PSP Go pricing, it is more in line with the pricing for the iPod Touch. For the time being, a 16gb iPod Touch retails for $299.99 while the 8gb is $229.99.

    That, of course, could all change after the WWDC next week.

  • Uh, that prototype looks like a certain “toy”. I hope don’t get in trouble for saying that and I hope the final version looks better.

  • Kind of like that new motion controller Sony is showing.

  • FINAL FANTASY XIV ONLINE PS3 EXCLUSIVE. ’nuff said.

  • OMGOMGOMG he said FFXIV!!! OMG I SERIOUSLY CANT BREATHE. And itz exclusive. STOP THE MADNESS!!!!!

  • OH GOD. Motion controllers! Those controllers looks like dildos. Yeah, I know they are not the actual controllers.

  • The new controller is awesome! Just wish the circle thing on it didn’t look so weird though, but the concept is great and improves upon the waggle that is currently on the market now.

  • MMO and i love and still play FFXI so with FFXIV we now can set up chats and all types of fun stuff okay this really has me hyped. Who need ventrilo\teamspeak when you have a machine that can do it all. I’m actually surprised keep up the good work and don’t forget FFVersus

  • Project Natal was pretty cool. The new Motion Controller is a much better idea. Bravo.

  • FF14 is going to be an mmo. $14.99 monthly just like FF11.

  • Final Fantasy XIV only on PS3…BUT…wasn’t Final Fantasy XIII only on PS3 at one point?

  • Come on Sony, bring on the apocalypse and announce kingdom hearts 3

  • Its because of Mario Galaxy 2 or else I could sell my Wii by now, whooohooo! Is this device gonna support “all” the games or only a specific amount of games?

    I didn’t notice FFXIV is a MMO as I was too happy about the words “exclusive”. Well who cares, its “exclusive”! Eat that MS suckers!!

  • YEAH WE WANT KINGDOM HEARTS 3?!!!!!!

  • So far this Sony Press has been lame. Sony are you feeling crappy with your motion wii rip off controller? Seriously is that all you can come up with? Project Natal is way better. Im a Sony fan but you’re losing me. STOP DROPPING THE BALL!

  • Lol Mario Kart meets PS3…

  • This game is like Mario Kart. Looks cool!

  • ModNation racing seems to want to do for Mario Kart genre what LBP did for the Super Mario genre. Nice.

  • @Se7enwolf, shut up already, if you wanted to see a crappy conference then you should have visited that of Nintendo. Sony’s way better.

  • stupid conference

  • This game kicks mario karts ass!

  • @216 And Project Natal is an enhanced EyeToy rip off. That’s the theme this generation.

    The difference is that the PS3 motion controllers have proof of concept, while Project Natal is just a concept. Accuracy is the most important thing with these 3d motion controllers/sensors.

  • Sony is winning for me, so many innovative things and games shown so far.. and it’s not even over yet.

  • @153

    To hell with digital distribution. Be an idiot and waste your money if you want, but if the PS4 is all-digital I won’t buy it.

  • Microsoft has bitten the dust this year. Sony’s topped everything else I’ve seen so far, ha ha ha.

  • The last guardian aka project trico… EPIC!

  • I don’t know what that thing is….Baby Griffin? Well, what ever it is it’s awesome. I want one.

  • Does anyone know when the US can download the conference video.. Im talking times here, not just saying “today”

  • F..k Kingdom Hearts and sharing any type of square soft or enix character with that crappy game. Might as well ask for super mario RPG while we are asking for f..king KH3. Give me a crono requirem before f…ing KH3

  • Can’t wait for the Last Guardian to come out….impressive.

  • GT5 damage confirmed, lol.

  • doing the “happy dance”

  • Now and then images of a game brings tears to my eyes and The Last Guardian surely did that… A high emotional game with an amazing beauty, oh god when will it release already?!

  • @225

    I still don’t understand the flat out opposition to digital distribution. I love not having to switch games out and being able to buy from home is really convienent.

    Then again, I guess some people will always argue that we should have stuck with dial up… because sticking with the old system is always better….

  • God of War looks awesome but I don’t think it’ll be my game. Never played a GoW before, sorry… Maybe I see it wrong on my TV screen, but do those birds have “tits” hahaha…

  • Jeo it is a different feeling opening up a game case smelling the scent of a new game compared to “oh my download is done lets play!”

    It is an “experience” if you want to call it that with each game not sure if people remember but when ffvii came out if anyone remembers the mo money mo problems video by biggie back then I did the whole run around when it came in the mail. Then a month later bought it again just in case I was to ever destroy it or damage it

  • I am real Old School when it comes to Physical Media, but i am all up for giving Digital Distribution a chance.

  • Have there been ZERO XMB enhancements?

  • Must have ModNation racers! Now!!!!!!!

  • Wow, God of War II looks fan-f-ing-tastic, I like how the action button when fighting an enemy is all fire-ry and the new beasts shown look to be quite a challenge and the release date of march 2010 is way too far off.

  • I’m glad I don’t need to buy the PSP Go for as long as the regular PSP stays on the market, *phew*, thanks for the relief Sony ;-)

  • Where the hell is Metal Gear Solid: Rising? Multiplatform is fine, but if this DOES turn out to be 360 exclusive….

  • GOD OF WAR 3!

  • It can’t be over, um no MGS on PS3 announcement?

  • So far

    1. Not much new shown, nothing new or innovative
    2. PSP Go – eh ok. good for some
    3. Motion controller – lame
    4. Mod Racer – lame
    6. Agent – Wont go any where, to may games like this already
    7. Hype for God of War 3 has been lowed due to that demo. Doesn’t live up to the hype or claims.

    Sony lost E3

  • Shame the PS3 lacks AA/AS on games. They always look jagged and crappy.

    Still look forward to GoW.

  • @236 You’d have to play the previous two games to understand the storyline unless they add a recap to this version.

    I think those are harpies, some ugly looking harpies.

  • PSP GO for $250 = completely terrible pricing.

    -No Cross Game Voice Chat? :(
    -No Price Cut means you still wont sell consoles.
    -No GT5 release date you gotta be kidding me.

    -Uncharted 2 looks amazing.
    -God of War 3 looks amazing.
    -Final Fantasy VII wewt!
    -Agent!
    -The Last Guardian!
    -Final Fantasy XIV woa?!
