"Official PS2 E3 Thread"

This week there'll be loads of news, screenshots, footage etc because of E3 so why not make a thread to stop everyone posting the "OMG, LOOK AT THE PS3!!11" or "GTA ON DA PSP!!!11" threads.

I'll start off by sharing some news from Gamesradar.com.

Discuss.

Sony copy Nintendo all the time. Rumble, analog sticks, link-up.
I'm off. You can probably all see the webcast from gamespot or ign.com in an hour or so's time.

The PSP can be used as a controller for PS3. Original.

Well, one advantage with that controller is that if you get mad and throw the controller, the boomerang shape means it will fly back to you... :)

I'm looking at a silver banana.

You're kidding me..

And the shoulder buttons are *still* just buttons, not triggers.

And that's the end of the conference. The next GTA is exclusive to PS3 (at least for starters), and PS3 is expected to launch Spring 2006.

The controller is actually at a bad angle. Think of the shape as the existing one with the two prongs extended out just a bit more. I think it will be more comfortable to use, since with the PS2 pads people had a semi grip on the prongs, whilst this will allow your entire hand to actually grasp it.

Yeah, it's real. I'm totally shocked, to be honest. No mainstream gamer is going to be seen with *that*. Looks like something invented from the Aussies. However, it is actually smaller than it looks.

The controller looks terrible. However I just know after hearing the specs that I'll get the 360 before xmas then then PS3 around march time when it's released for my birthday. I'll probably get Nintys next offering when the price drops a bit as the PS3 and 360 appeal more to me. I'm shocked by the PS3's specs, my only concern is that Blue-Ray will bump up the price a fair bit. It'll be interesting to see what Nintendo come up with.

That's definitely real? Why change the already excellent controller? Grrr.

Er...

Holy sheet, the controller, NOOOOOOOOO.
