    I have to go in a little bit, but before I go, it seems some stuff from the Sony conference has been put on the Internet. Here's a quick link:
    Looks like there is a new FF7:AC trailer available for download at Gamespot:

    I haven't had much time to really read much of that, and I have to go to a stupid school event right now, but you guys can go ahead and keep up on this. I'll try to read up on it tonight or tomorrow.

    God only knows why a company with as big a marketing budget as Sony would create a font/sign that causes people to say that. They better have some kick-ass game about a guy named chang or else they look really stupid.

    Anyone know what to expect as far as PC games go? Last year we had Doom3 and HL2 to really look forward to, anything even remotely approaching the hyp of these 2 games (it will be hard to match the hype of D3 and HL2, I know)?

    The Playstation font reminds me of the font they used for the Spiderman movies.

    That looks ok but I don't really like the curved top. That and Xbox360 both have curves which will make stacking things difficult. Hopefully Nintendo will leave the top of theirs flat or I'll have to put them horizontally.

    Here's a Forbe's article that states some Xbox games will be backward compatable which seems a little odd. Also, Square-Enix is porting FFXI to the Xbox which also seams a little strange since the game is already three years old and the Xbox is nearing the end of it's life span.

    I like the look of the console, but that boomerang looks horrible.

    saw the Fight Night pics, wasnt too impressive at all.

    Just noticed that the PS3 had NO mention of any Hard drive, mentioned that there is a removable 2.5 HDD slot, thats it. You would think that Sony would catch up with the Hard Drive, but then again, they probably want to bank on selling Memory Sticks

    The bluetooth aspect seems pretty interesting..

    The PS3 is pretty damn powerful, if the PS3 had something like Xbox Live I think it would be an easy choice

    I wish I could have both right now

    is this coming on TV?

    i dont see why they did it, its not as popular as it should be at the moment. I guess Sony wanted it to give it another try.

    Both systems look pretty even. It will just depend on the games each one releases. From the launch titles, it looks like Sony is heavily relying on big sequels. MS is at least releasing alot of original titles at launch and their money is on Perfect Dark Zero, Dark Sector, and 99 Nights
