E3 Anticipation Thread

Probably. Just put a receiver in the controller, lose the cable and get another form of force feedback and they're set. Developers have been testing their games using the Dual Shock 2, so we know it's at least close to that.

BTW, according to the GDC specs, 7.1 channel audio is done through the GPU (RSX) and all the Blu-Ray functions are controlled via software instead of the hardware solutions that'll be found in actual players. Of course, doing these things via software often degrades quality, but this is the "Poor Man's Blu-Ray".

I don't expect prices at E3, that'll probably show up around TGS even though the announcement may not have as big an impact then.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It probably will, though. Even if it's simply a 5 second teaser or whathaveyou, it'll be shown in some form. Of course, FFXII will overshadow it since Square doesn't want everyone ignoring a game they've delayed for years in order to focus on FFXIII.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
