There are some meltdowns, since Kmart leaked 24 August release of PS3 Slim at 299$ and GT5 is confirmed to be playable at Gamescom. And we just warming up. .=)

I did, and space won't be an issue because there won't be that many games on release (if the release ever happens.) No need for the attitude though; we're all here to enjoy the hype.

Microsoft stuff is really nothing special to jump about. They will let Sony steal a lot of thunder during this holiday season, but will Microsoft be at the next game conference?

If true; with "Europe", I suppose they mean Germany and Britain? :D

Vidzone or the Video Store? Because Vidzone already exists in Germany and Britain.
And for the Video Store, you'll know in ~3-4 hours if it comes or not.

um, what is Videozone? Vidzone was launched in Europe(*) in June already.





(*)by Europe it means selected richest European countries.


If you mean European Video Store where you can buy and rent movies, than there was indeed a mention of some announcement incoming at PS.Blog Eu. Not that it will be necessarily launched during Gamescom.

2000 games * 9Gb each (almost impossible as they were games released on cd!) = 18.000Gb = 18 Terabytes


Not much :p (We can still dream right?)



Oh, the Fifa10 trailer is on the Fifa web page.

There's no attitude. I was responding to someone who was posting about the hypothetical 'entire PS2 library', that's why I responded and told you to read the sequence of posts. Obviously you STILL haven't.

Microsoft (must) have something big under wraps.

There's just no way they'd let Sony get away with all the press they're currently getting.

So the slim is confirmed? Is this all because of that kmart ad? Any other news besides that?

Go to kmart.com for yourself, it's right on the front page. Other than that though, not much other news regarding the slim.. tons of price cut ads everywhere though.

More or less hype, everything is speculation at this point.

You obviously haven't been at Games Convention before. Microsoft's efforts were always weak compared to those of Sony.
