PS3 Playable at E3
 
Quote:

Looks like we might get a glimpse of Sony's PS3 earlier than we expected - in a financial conference call last week Sony execs suggested that the next-gen PlayStation will be playable at E3 in May.

The announcement could mean that all three next-gen consoles - Xbox 2, Nintendo Revolution and PS3 - go head-to-head in an epic clash of the console titans at the world's biggest videogames showcase.

Sony confirmed that the PS3 will appear in playable form rather than just showing video footage of the console's capabilities, although the scope of this playability was not confirmed. We could be looking at actual games, or Sony may choose to show off interactive tech demos that demonstrate the PS3's power.
Here is a link to the full story: Playable at E3 the PS3

I never expected a playable version of PS3 at the E3... this means they will be able to show it's true power rather then show a video of what it is capable of.

I'm excited for all 3 systems, this is going to be a heated battle at E3.

Now if Nintendo would confirm that their console is gonna be playable, I'll resist being giddy as a school girl :p

But it's gonna be nice to see the next gen of consoles playable this year. It kind of sucks that this gen. of hardware is being phased out too fast :(

I also want to see the Revolution playable. No offense to the Microsoft fans, but I can careless about the Xbox 2. It's about Nintendo and Sony for me at the E3.

I want to see all three consoles duke it out at E3. I think it will be a very heated fight at least between PS3 and Xbox 2, but Nintendo, depending on the cool-ness of their "Revolution", could turn the tables on both of them.

I'm fairly sure that all three systems will be playable (at least on dev hardware) at E3. I'm very excited to see what can be done with next generation hardware in motion.

I don't think Nintendo's revolution will be enough to overcome its stigma of being a kiddy company. No kid wants to say to their friends "Yeah man, I got a Nintendo biatches!" They want to tell them they have an Xbox or a PS2.

With PS3 supposedly behind in the development process, it will look very bad if it is playable and Revolution isn't.

I think Nintendo is trying to shake that image with Revolution by basically just giving in to whatever demands gamers make (or at least ones with half a brain). Its a good/bad scenario but since people are so self centered that they won't pick something because it "sounds kiddy", then by all means, be that way. It won't affect me enjoying games.

i dont see nintendo trying to shake that image at all. infact, i expect to see the same game plan from them as always.

not saying the EVolution wont be good, it could infact be better then the others. but nintendo will just keep on doing it how they always have stratagy wise.

Nintendo may be considered kiddy, but all I'm saying is if they are touting playable VR-like games, then that will surely be the highlight of the show.

Not likely, but who likes to think about likely anyways?

The PS3 is actually going to be revealed at an event in March, I think it's Gamer's Day something or another. Should be cool.

I don't want to see the Revolution playable at E3. I want it's developement to be continued. If we see it at E3 then that means it's pretty much done being constructed. If they hold off on E3 they can continue working on it and hopefully turn out a better product.

Well GM, Nintendo has gone back and made changes in the past ;) Hell, the original GC controller had the bean shaped B button but that changed. Even better, the DS's original look was just horribly wrong and that got made into a much sleeker look. So first showings of Ninty Hardware lately has been through revisions, I expect Revolution to have that also ;)
