ok. it is over. I'll be honest, when Adam Sesler said there is the possible announcement about a PSP hardware upgrade, i became very excited. Here comes the second thumb stick.
Out came Jack Tretton... in his virtual form in the sony Playstation Home environment; it was a little gimmicky in my opinion. He really was uncomfortable in front the crowd and even pointed it out a couple of times. *sign* this was not a good start for sony.
Kaz Hirai arrived on stage with the new PSP... 33% lighter (who cares), 19% slimmer (who cares), tv ouput display feature (ok kinda interesting), but where is the second thumb stick that everyone wanted? I can tell one place where it wasn't... not on the new PSP hardware! *sign* so far, so bored.
I left for a bit to give Susie a hand with laundry, fairly confident that I won't miss much.
G4 didn't help either: tons of commercial breaks as well as zoomed out camera shots of upcoming games. When Call of Duty 4 was shown on PS3, it was so zoomed out, that you really couldn't compare the graphics with Xbox 360. Right afterwards, it zoomed in to show Assassin's Creed.
This pattern repeated itself quite a bit.
Fortunately, that was not the case when they show cased Metal Gear Solid 4 and Killzone 2. Both do look amazing, but not enough for me to spend the money on a PS3.
We will have to see how my TA jobs for the school year works out.
