PlayStation 3 To Debut at E3 2005

Posted by Hemos on Monday July 12, 2004 @04:38AM from the showing-the-world dept.

Yorrike writes "According to the BBC, Sony are planning to officially reveal the PlayStation 3 at the E3 Expo in May 2005. They're obviously not wanting to be outdone by Nintendo, who announced the same plans for the GameCube successor, as well as Xbox 2's rumored debut around that time. Looks like E3 2005 is going to be a biggy." Worth noting that's not the ship date, but when people will see it.

This got modded up as insightfull?

What do you mean no developers? The only hold out i'm aware of are Sony owned or Nintendo own companies.

Even EA has seen the light of day and will offer broad support of Xbox Live.

i think the PS2 has dead monkeys developing for it with all the crap that comes out. Goes for any console for that matter.

As for Console vs PC, there will not be a distinction in the near future. DRM will enforce console like licensing & features on your PC and now that PC/Gaming "conversion" is coming on quickly and affordably (pc's were too expensive for market acceptance and performance) it won't be long before we just have "Consumer" devices.
