PS3 info to be revealed at GDC

PS3 News | It's about damn time.
A day before Satoru Iwata takes the stand to deliver his keynote address, it has been confirmed that Sony Computer Entertainment Worldwide Studios President Phil Harrison will be on the scene to represent Sony's interests by delivering his own speech entitled "PlayStation 3: Beyond the Box".

According the the GDC website, Harrison's address is set to "focus on the new creative, technical, and business opportunities provided by the arrival of PlayStation 3", a console that has been kept almost completely under wraps since its huge impact premiere at last year's E3 convention.

It seems the covers are now ready to come to come off, to some degree at least. Jamil Moledina, director of GDC had this to say about Harrison's involvement in the conference, "His discussion will answer many questions developers have for Sony at this stage before the impending PS3 launch." I'd take that as a good sign that we'll hear some pretty intriguing stuff about Sony's console.

This years GDC is sure to be one of the more interesting conferences of the year with Nintendo and now Sony presenting themselves with potentially info rich speeches. Hopefully, what the two main players have to say will satisfy the many thousands of info hungry gamers hanging onto every scrap of info they can find. Let's hope it's at least enough to whet our appetites during the long wait until E3.

It is about time, they've been holding back a fair bit. Nintendo even more so. The technology won't be cheap, but it'll be mighty impressive. icon_biggrin.gif

At the moment, only two things matter: price and a release date. If none of those subjects are rised, then what's the use of the speech?

So when is the GDC?
Yes, I know I should know that already but I don't. *sigh*

Well, whatever date/s it happens to fall onto this is indeed good to hear. It will be nice to finally know what is going on with the PS3, even if the infortmation is only slight.

I wouldn't hold my breath expecting price and release date. "Beyond the Box" sounds like it will multimedia/networking related. Does anyone know for sure that if it still plays games? icon_lol.gif
