Default Ps2 E3 Press confrerence

I'll edit in the important crap... for now there is only one big announcement:

Ps2 $150, and um, they are sharing the shocking info on how they are in the lead of the console sales race.

-EDIT-

Ps2 Killer Apps list: Killzone, Gran Turismo 4, Getway: Nlack Monday, God of Wat and MGS 3... and Sly 2, Ratchet and Clank 3 and Jak 3. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Ps2 exclusive, shocking.

-EDIT-

From BreakABone's mouth:

Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal is online. Up to 8 players. Seige Mode, Capture the Flag and Deathmatch. You can turn friends into sheep online.

-EDIT-

Showing PSP...Claims that it runs as smooth as Ps2, can connect wirelessly, Runs on UMD, Plays Music and Movies. 32MB Memory, has parental controls, "looks thin", Has infared data port, lithium ion battery will be used, 10 hour battery life, 2 1/2 for DVDs, and 8 for music, remore controll, USB Camera, GPS system. They say great games are important, yet have not shown any yet. Going to feature connectivity with Ps2.

-EDIT-

Showing Ape Escape, Metal Gear Solid, a Hockey Game, Gran Turismo, Tony Hawk, Capcom Fighting Game. BrakaBone says he can't tell if this is Ps2 or PSP... (Just as a note, I'm getting the news second hand from him )

-EDIT-

EA to have at least 4 titles at launch of PSP. Official release in 2005. NBA Street, Tiger Woods, Need for Speed: Underground and NFL Streets. And it's comfirmed that PSP's graphics will own you . Looks close to console counterparts.

-EDIT-

Showing Spiderman 2 Tailer on PSP.

-EDIT-

"Final Fantasy : Advent Kids going to UMD"

I think by now everyone knows Sony is on top in the hardware console area. No need to really reiterate it every year

But I'm not surprised at a $150 ps2. They have been lagging behind on price cuts considering their system is the oldest.

PSP looks truly amazing...and it's a sexy piece of hardware...

The Spiderman trailer, Incubus music video...damn, it looks like a mini high-def TV.

Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal's online battlemode looks like a HELL of a lot of fun.

PSP was the hilight of this conference, though...spectacular.

Basically the PSP is like a small PS2. They did a good job on this one, at least it's not a wireless system like PSone that was a huge portable.... dunno what they were thinking.

The PSP is the right size, and the graphics will probably be equal to if not better than the PS2 games.

USB Camera also..... NIIIIICE....

Sony is always coming out with consoles or hardware that serves more than it's purpose... PS2 the first system with DVD capabilities..... PSP the first to have it's own individual movie format called UMD.... and ADVENT CHILDREN too!?

SONY IS ON TOP FOR SURE!
