Playstation 3 Coming to Taipei Game Show

[SkippyLeBeef]

TeamXbox (http://www.teamxbox.com/) has word (http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/10209/Sony-to-Showcase-PlayStation-3-at-Taipei-Game-Show/) about the PS3 being shown at the 2006 Taipei Game Show.

DigiTime reports today that Sony will showcase the PlayStation 3 at the upcoming Taipei Game Show 2006, which runs through Feb 16 to Feb 20. Sony will occupy a total of 80 booths at the show and 20 booths have been allocated exclusively for the PS3, leading to believe that the company will show more than a demo videos and a behind-the-glass working prototype.

Interactive demo, please. Let's see you back up some of that big talk.

They will also be handing out wader pants as to not get the attendee's clothes staind from the bullshit.

I hope to high heaven they have real gameplay showing. I want to know if I'd be interested in buying it to play games. If its going to be the same crap as before, then Sony has a problem. Or a really really big suprise come E3. But I'd guess problem.

[Morratut]

Surely Sony won't only have videos?

I wanna see gameplay. I want to see the reality of the PS3!

[Montolio]

Have faith.

Sony will draw back the curtain a little bit for gamers everywhere. At least I think so. If not, then PS fans can start to worry IMHO.

Heh, yeah. Sometimes they get their facts right.

But why Taiwan of all places?

Hey...know your enemy.

Hmm... I know this sounds pretty stupid... but i've noticed games that have good videos and such tend to be good games:
Blizzard games (DII ones were really good)
Dawn of War (one of the best game videos ever)
FFVII
etc... even though FMV have nothing to do with gameplay... but I find a werid correlation.... maybe more money better games? Dunno

Anyways videos of gameplay will at least tell us what kinda games we're dealing with, because the Xbox seems quite RPG light at the moment. Not thats a vote for sony, because either way my non hdtv isn't gonna care about the super duper mega pixels these things put out

Will just have to wait and see if this true, is a matter of time now, sooner or later they will have to show something to the public, I don't know what they are so quiet about it.

So one week from today we'll have a better idea of just what the PS3 is and how it's going to revolutionize the world of gaming? I'll set my watch then.

No need. The PS3 can set your watch for you. See, it's already done.

If they don't produce a working model this time, I'm going to accuse them of stealing marketting strategies from Infinium Labs' Phantom. :)
