I was really hoping for an updated online service 
That's the biggest thing holding them back right now.

Not watching a stream.... at work...GHEY! But I'm on the Gizmodo and Engadget website. They are doing a good job updating without me having to watch all the boring stuff.
And I am recording G4TV all day long on my DVR so I can fast forward past the boring stuff!!

11:25: We've just taken our seats at Sony's conference in front of what could only be described as a wall of screens: 7 main screens and roughly 64 smaller screens. OMG, Vaio LCD's everywhere. You'd think this was a Sony event. There's a couple players up front playing, from left to right: MGS4, PixelJunjk Eden, GT5: Prologue, SOCOM, Echochrome, and Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Number of smiling old people: 0. The players are most definitely not smiling.
Hmm... I wonder what that means??
11:29: SOCOM is looking fun. Lots of players on screen.

11:32: Just chatted with Xbox's Aaron Greenberg – he's been following our liveblogs from his phone, so now he's totally reading this and thinking, "Whoa, meta."
lol
Chrsit, that's a lot of screens!

11:37: Triangles, squares, and circles galore. We're at the right place apparently. FYIL It's 68 panels, not 64. Shots os last year's games: Uncharted, Haze... A video montage of some of PS3's biggest games – already out and upcoming. We're seeing Uncharted, Resident Evil 5, Little Big Planet, Buzz, MGS4, SOCOM, Resistance, Killzone 2. Not all PS3 games either – PSP and PS2 are making an appearance. It's the PlayStation "family" of products afterall, remember? They just showed off a shot of Bioshock, too!
11:39: Ladies and gentelemen, please welcome Jack Tretton. "Thanks for coming out everybody. I can't tell you how much fun we've had over hte past several months putting together this press conference. The truth is: this is the most stressful event you can imagine. It's taken two years off of my life."
11:40: He's recounting all the famous events that happened on this stage. Tretton isn't bad as a stand-up comedy act.
11:41: Says PlayStation is hitting its stride, finally. Just getting started. Just begun. Sounds like a bit of an excuse for the past couple years, eh? The seeds of the playstation brand were laid nearly 15 years ago this week
11:43: Says Tretton: "From the very beginning our customers came to expect something very different from us. What really made SCE different from the very beginning is we took a longer look ahead. When most companies were looking at a 3 to 5 year lifecycle, we were on a 10 year. Really hitting hard on the long product lifecycle thing, saying their consoles have at least a 10-year lifecycle. In other words: "Thanks for waiting."

11:44: GTA: SA came along in year 4. Shadow of the colossus in year 5, God of War 2 in year 7. Interesting that they mentioned Ico along with FFX and GTA. Not exactly a big seller (although it's one of our favorite games ever). IBM is actually using the CEll processor to power its newest supercomputer .he's mentioning FOlding@home numbers
11:46: "If we stopped to ask consumers if they needed all this horsepower, they may have said no." He recalls Henry Ford's quote, "If I asked my customers what htey wanted, they'd have said a faster horse. Games like MGS4 aren't just exclusive to the Playstatin 3, they're only possible on the PlayStation 3"
11:47: Games like MGS4 on PS3 is a good reminder of what it means to have exclusive content

Showing RESISTANCE 2 footage right now. Looks petty badass.

11:48: "I agree with what CNET and so many others have said in recent months: 2008 is hte year of the PS3." Big-ass subwoofers in here at the beginning of Resistance 2. "Here's a look at the third-generation title from Insomniac games on the PlayStation 3: Resistance 2." Wow. Okay, yeah, that's one big boss. Seriously, this thing makes the Collossi in SotC look like puppy dogs
11:52: Demo end. *applause* Ted price from Insomniac on stage. "In 1951 we lost Chicago, millions never made it out. ... now Chicago is enemy territory." 350ft tall Chimera called Leviathan. "resistance 2 is a story of a country under siege, broken by a superior foe."
11:53: Okay, he's essentially reading us the game box back, but that's cool because he just told us about 8-player online co-op. "resistance 2 also breaks new ground with it's 8-player online co-op and 60 player online multiplayer ... While many games talk about scale, resistance 2 truly delivers." Scale, scale scale: This game is big, epic, etc. "resistance 2 offers more than any shooter in 2008 ... I'm Ted Price, president and ceo of insomniac games, and this is resistance 2." *cue the trailer*
11:54: The game is definitely more colorful than its predecessor. Less gray, more bright colors. Think 1950's America

I like how their whole speech seemed to be based around a game that is allready out.

Don't get me wrong I will be buying Resitance 2 but come on.
By the way did I mention that MGS4 is for PS3?
