Realistically, hardware and software leaks make for good publicity. HYpe is a powerful driving force of today's economy.

The funniest parts are that these are considered "leaks". A real leak would be if someone got a hold of every launch game, full size pics from every angle, the absolute final specs from the final build, etc, and released it all a year ago.

Meanwhile, most fo the leaks have been nondesript pictures of parts of the console and finally the entire console itself. What does this do? Keeps people talking about it, and not the PS3, and reminds us all that the Xbox 360 launch is very soon. Its called "marketing the console", my friends. Releasing "leaks" makes the whole thing seems scandalous and invites rumors and gossip, instead of just another billboard or TV commercial which most people just ignore.

Thats my opinion on the whole thing.
