Short bit of EDF4 video footage in a montage.

Rocksmith? Really? That's all you got?

[Beezy]

TGS started? I'm really out of the loop...

[Purple Filth]

those prices 

[Eel O'Brian]

they raised the price on the ps3

they're idiots

[Trent Dole]

It costs more? Are you fucking serious?
VVV $250's more than it should be but still reasonable I guess.

[Mr. Gundam]

$249 for 250GB
$299 for 500GB

Good jon everyone.

[Howard Alan Treesong]

PS3 slerm

[Takao]

Goodbye Vita the world hardly knew you

[Eel O'Brian]

but hey you get uncharted 3  and some bullshit vouchers for dust 514 

real talk, sony is run by complete morons

[Bebpo]

real talk, sony is run by complete morons

Yup.

[Mr. Gundam]

For real.

[Momo]

All hail Lord Sorny

[Mr. Gundam]

I'm getting the feeling that Sony has nothing new to show off. I bet the GAF thread is hilariously butthurt about now.

[Tasty]

IS PS3 selling well enough that a price increase won't hurt sales? The DS went up at one point too IIRC...

yyyyyyyyeah, i'd say that closes the book on the vita.

What happened?

What happened?

Absolutely nothing.

Wait! Three games from Marvelous--- nevermind, absolutely nothing.

[Mr. Gundam]

That boob fighter Senran Kagura is coming to Vita, along with Valhalla Knights 3 and Oboro Muramasa.

[Tasty]

Muramasa should be good news. If Sonytards nutted over a P4 port which they likely already played, Muramasa should be worth noting too considering it was Wii exclusive.

[Momo]

Muramasa :3

But even though I own a Vita, I kinda dont even want to buy games for the thing anymore

[Mr. Gundam]

Koei Tecmo is up next.

Toukiden -- Developed by Omega Force for PSP/Vita

Now Bandai Namco. Bring on the Gundams.

[Momo]

Tecccmmoon cheewy

[Mr. Gundam]

They're showing a Gundam title OFF CAMERA FUCK YOU

It's a Gundam title for PS3/Vita involving Gunpla. Gundam Breaker?

[Momo]

It's a secret REAL LIFE Gundam project. Japan planning for WWIII

I said "absolutely nothing" and they immediately started showing off new shit.

Glad the Gundam Breaker game is PS3, since I don't give a shit about the Vita.

omg those photoshops were real??? or leaked photos w/e

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/09/18/tgs-2012-smaller-lighter-ps3-model-unveiled/

lolol

[Takao]

No Square Enix, no Capcom, no Konami. A PlayStation platform without their support is a PlayStation platform that's not going to sell.

[Momo]

dat Biohazard : Giraffe Oral Rape Edition 6 logo

[Mr. Gundam]

That's it.

Sony has absolutely nothing for Vita.

[Tasty]

That's it.

Sony has absolutely nothing for Vita.

No first party games whatsoever? Not even cross-releases/ports???

[Takao]

I wonder if Vita will even see holiday season 2013 ...

[pilonv1]

So a more expensive re-design that looks horrible? Sounds like a winner

Vita is back:

At least there was God Eater. nothing else mattered.

[Tasty]

So... the Last Guardian... dead?

[Mr. Gundam]

So... the Last Guardian... dead?

It's partying with Versus XIII in gaming limbo.

[frod]

upgrade to PSP

[Tasty]

Lol Duckroll going crazy trolling the Vita.

It's fun when it's not at you!

[Madrun Badrun]

wtf at those prices

[DCharlieJP]

Andrew House seems to speaks decent japanese

looks terrible though

bit harsh - he's not that bad looking.

Oops, looks terrible was about the PS3 re-design.

Was pretty impressed with House, Sony should use him for every show.

[Sho Nuff]

Wait, they raised the price by ten bucks!?

I so wanna see a picture with that things lid off

I like that the staff guy is wearing gloves

[Sho Nuff]

Looks like iPod speakers from a HK company with a name like "ZOOM TECH"

[Takao]

is that the new george foreman gril

[Tasty]

Vita colors make it looks cheap and plasticky. Should have gone for a crimson red and electric blue.

From the press release:

Users can also expand the storage capacity of the new PS3 with 12GB flash memory by connecting a dedicated HDD (250GB) to be released concurrently with the new PS3*⁴

*⁴ When using dedicated HDD, flash memory cannot be used as inner storage

 

[archnemesis]

Rocksmith is a pretty cool game, you shouldn't dismiss it.

I don't think they announced a single thing relevant to my interests. Muramasa may be beautiful, but I doubt it's very fun to play.

So you can't use your own HDD or this is just some fuzzy PR talk?

When using dedicated HDD, flash memory cannot be used as inner storage

wtf

[T-Short]

It seems you can use internal drives using an "official mounting bracket", maybe you have to buy this. Also there is a nice typo in the description:

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2012/09/19/ps3-gets-smaller-and-lighter/

...owners of the 12GB model will be able to connect a 5 inch SATA internal hard drive with use of an official Mounting Bracket, or opt for purchase of an official PlayStation 250GB internal HDD.

hehe
