According to the rep, Sony have some interesting things to unveil at the show. The first thing which caught our attention was 4 new PS3 exclusive games which are to be released later on in the year and early 2009.
The Sony rep said that Home has a few more features/additions and these will also be demonstrated. What these features are exactly, we don't know.
A new Playstation controller is also supposed to be in the making. Apparently it has a much longer battery life (not that the current controllers don't have a long battery life!), will be lighter than the current DualShock3, and of course will include rumble. A wireless headset is also said to be included in future PS3 packages and we're told that we could be seeing a new PS3 bundle in time for Christmas. With Resistance 2 being released in November, there's a very good chance that Resistance 2 could be part of the new PS3 bundle.
A new PS3 firmware is supposed to be demonstrated, displaying "In game chat". A few more "surprises" will be detailed later today, we're not told what, so we'll just have to sit back and wait.
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
4 new exclusives!!!!!!!!!!!!! God of war 3........and 3 left after that. What could they be?
This sounds made up and too good to be true, In game chat already?

Nothing new. Every time sony has a keynote, they talk the same thing. I guess the only new thing tonight will be......more delay announcements.
Sony has lost, sony is doomed. Sony has nothing left in its pockets. Damn it.
