I really don't think we're ever going to see that stuff on the PS3.

Those two features are the best on xbox live! Get on top of it, Sony!

edit: The also took one of the worst parts of XBL! Getting bombarded with ads for games/movies right when you turn on the system!

I'm sure we'll be spending some time on this during BAc tonight in addition to the two topics we've listed.

I want the hard drive size (120) of the new PS3 but I want the backwards compatabilty of the my 80 gb. I also want to get my PS3 fixed in the near future. My system sometimes turns off during newer games. I can play Uncharted and LBP all day but when I play Buzz or Infamous it would just turn off.

Just buy a new HD to throw into your PS3 and then you win.

That looks sweet, looks like a dvd player. I wish the one I have wasn't so big and ugly and heavy.

At least big provides enough ventilation... Hopefully the newer one won't have any sort of heating issues due to its smaller size.

I'm fine with mine. Like Lou said, I got the one I wanted for backwards compatibility. When it stops playing games I'll start making burgers on it, hur hur hur haha

Sony motion controller video with actual game examples.

If it's reasonably priced, this could be rad.

As Phil said. Personally I have had a 160GB in mine for almost a year now...

New Trailers!

Heavy Rain: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gc-09-heavy-rain/54362

Uncharted 2: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/gc-09-uncharted-2/54369

They're cam versions, and the audio is a little crackly, but they're both amazing.

Day one for Uncharted 2...and I'll rent the shit out of Heavy Rain, even though it looks amazing.

Dante, you hated Indigo Prophecy. I find it really hard to believe Heavy Rain will do anything for you. Or maybe I'll be completely wrong and it'll be completely different from that. Looks pretty damn similar though.

I think the same thing, so I'll just rent it, or pick it up super cheap when it inevitably goes in the bargain bin. The story/atmosphere looks so good though :(

Dude dont even buy it when its super cheap. You bought Indigo Prophecy super cheap and hated it so much you didn't want to play Prince of Persia. There is zero game there from what I've seen. Personally... I think the story seems kind of lame.

That Uncharted though, that's a keeper. I also put myself on an Uncharted media freeze and have refused to look at anything since the E3 demo.
