E3 Summit

So it's finally here, the 2008 E3 Media & Business Summit. Today is the day. It will last until the 16th. But what can you expect for the next few days? Well, for starters, you won't here anything today about Sony. Microsoft and Electronic Arts will be dishing it out at 10:30 am PT / 1:30 pm ET and 3:00 pm PT / 6:00 pm ET respectfully. But tomorrow on the 15th, we'll see what Sony brings to the table.

 

For the PS3, you may hear new information about games like God of War III or possibly Heavenly Sword 2, but don't hold your breath on the second one. You may also hear about future firmware expectations as well as coverage on the new 2.41 firmware. If I had to put my money where my mouth is, I'd say Sony will also discuss the "Greatest Hits" collection. Japan already has it, and Europe is getting it soon, so it seems like a worthy mention.

 

For the PSP developments, things are very up-in-air. I think we will definitely be hearing about a Patapon 2 and/or Loco Roco 2 in the works since Sony wants to show it cares about UMD sales.I think we'll also hear big developments from Ubisoft. They are planning to release a whopping 12 PSP titles this fiscal year, and so far these have remained secret. Rayman is expected, but what else? I think we're going to find out! I also expect that Sony will talk more about downloadable content. Sony seems like they are aiming to make the PS Store accessible directly from the PSP itself instead of only on computer. It would be interesting if Sony revealed a "PSP Trophy" system similar to PS3 Trophies and Xbox Achievements, but that's not likely. Lastly, I'm wondering how Sony plans to market the PSP through the holiday season. New colors, bundles, accessories? I guess we'll have to wait until the 14th! Gamespot will have live coverage here, so enjoy!
