Dunno if this has been posted as another article or not, but it's dated today soo~

Speaking to GamesIndustry.biz, Sony has dismissed rumours that the 20GB PS3 will not be compatible with wireless controllers, and that consumers will not have the option to upgrade the hard drive.

"Both queries to my knowledge are completely false," a spokesperson told GI.biz.

"Both configurations will support bluetooth PS3 controllers. The only non-upgradeable feature of the 20GB configuration will be the HDMI output."

This confirms comments made by Sony's Phil Harrison in a recent interview with GI.biz, where he stated: "You can upgrade to whatever size of drive you like. You can put in any drive that you like - it is a computer, after all."

The spokesperson went on to reveal that Sony plans to release a Wi-Fi adaptor for the 20GB PlayStation 3. Consumers will also have the option to purchase a separate adaptor that will allow the use of memory sticks, SD cards and compact flash cards with the machine.

However, there's still no word as to whether the 20GB PlayStation 3 will make it to the UK at all.
Link.

Sounds good to me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's just silly to me.

I actually like the idea of wireless controllers. I got a chance to try out some on an Xbox 360 the other day and it's just nice to be able to take/move the thing anywhere and not have to worry about cords. That's definetly a smart move on the part of next-gen sytems, incorporating that as a default.

As for the rumble/shock feature, Sony would just get sued again if they did use it.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Well, I play Ace Combat with a Hori Flightstick 2, and as far as I know the crap Sony got sued over for using force feedback/vibration doesn't apply to them, so I won't be missing out on anything, really. So long as Hori makes a stick for the next Ace Combat or the current one is compatible with it I'm set.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Protip: It cost money to run servers. I'd rather pay and get something top of the line like XBL than have something that was free and sketchy (See: SegaNET).

If Sony is really going to go with their service being free, I sure hope they put the kinda effort into their network that MS did, otherwise I'll be dissapointed, and I don't even OWN a 360 yet. I've just seen it in action and know that it rocks.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
