I think GDC is not the place to announce new games, well MS did but they just announced when they will be released nothing new, the real deal is E3.

But I agree they should have at least talk about Home or something relating to the PS3, maybe tomorrow if GDC goes on till tomorrow I don't really know.

But yet MS announced Gears 2, so I think it's a little more than a tech conference. Regardless, like someone above said....Sony is probably waiting for E3.

This isnt a conference that is for gamers to read news about, it is more about the system and its capabilities and helping out game devs, like last year, when they gave PS3 dev tools and gave info on LBP and Home, which can show Devs what they can do with the PS3

Well, last year Sony announced Home, Little Big Planet and didn't they also show off the PSP slim for the first time? When you see all that and this year nothing, it is a disappointment.

I guess MS though that using a technical conference to make a commercial announcement was better than no announcement at all, or having to make their our press conference to reveal that game... I am not saying it wouldn't be nice to get something, just that I wasn't expecting much.

Sony is saving up all its exclusives and such for E3. Expect a lot from sony in e3 and not a lot from Microsoft since they have already introduced most of their exclusives which were really hyped up. The only thing microsoft would do at E3 to make ppl go crazy is probably new halo wars footage and ..yuh..thats about it.

XD
expect games such as Ffxiii/versus/kingdomhearts/mgs4/godofwar3/kz2/haze/gt5/dmc5?/dragon quest/resistance 2/Socom/heavanly sword 2/ratchet and clank/tekken/jak 4/motor storm/little big planet/8 days

Better be quiet here than at E3.

Who cares about news for titles coming in well over a year? As if Gears of War 2 will really come out this year, it'll be pushed back... I hardly care and am far from being disapoitned becuase sony doesn't wanna tell me what my Ps3 can do and I didn,t knew about before.

Like it's been siad GDC is not typical great for breaking news, but Sony's keynote is suppossed to be on Friday.

And I've hear that Sony itself has some kind of event coming up, they might be saving for that.

Yea well its kinda hard when You DID NOT GO!!!!!!!!!!! and just sent one dude to say a few words. They have better stuff than to try and do us in the rear anyways. The'll save that job for the other companies. And as you can see, Gamespot likes it like that, as do a few of the Bots lol. See any good mutliplatform game links to 60 games as of late on the site, not to mention along with the many GDC links that have nothing to do with Sony.. LOL I filmed it today it was so out of whack, will have it up today to. Real bad quality. But Ill stick in Oliva munn kissing a girl or something, so people will watch it

Yea I filmed the GS webpage lol. I did it yesterday also, i saw it was stating to ge bad, wanated to get it.

alot of you guys are being....pretty ignorant -_-...like one person said "well microsoft did this"....GDC is all about the devs...nothing about us so most of the time they dont reveil a thing about any games. The only reason it was a lil big for sony last year was become of home(i think) which isnt even a game but just another thing for the devs to use to impliment things into home...almost no game news is ever released at gdc...it's just microsoft doing something out of the ordinary

GDC 2008 is from Feb 18-22

How about we let it finish first?

It's just like every other conference, one company usually has their day or part of the day, maybe SOn'ys devs are tomorrow.

Although MS, Nin, And Sony are devs also.

i think MS did what they did because they had to, besides it didnt even have any ingame footage and made sense for them to reveal it since Epic came out with their new engine

their 08 looks completely barron compared to what sony has

That of course is probably pretty dead on balls accurate. I don't remember ever hearing too much come from GDC anyways.

www.ps3scene.com posted some nice updates today on HOME, which made me very happy.

Hopefully HOME will be released this year. :)

this is one of two days, mayb tommarrow will be all out sony.

and today is still going.

but lets not forget, sony never actually ever reveals anything when they make announcments anyway, look at e3 2007 and how many things they promised to be out before 08. they are never specific so even if they do say anything big it will be like "in game xmb, out soon."

or more likely, a kz 2 video of the same level again and at the end it says "late 2009"!

the latter is more likely

I think waiting for E3 is a huge mistake. Right now tehy're gathering a lot of momentum, and the last theing they should be doing is sitting back and letting the competition get their word out. Microsoft is doing better this time because they trumped sony at every opportunity during the PS3 launch, and its only now they they are faltering.

-Home

-In-game xmb

-blu-ray

-dualshock 3 US/EU

-replacement for the 80GB sku

-PSN store plans

-firmware

Seriously, they cant talk about any of that?

with the exception of home and ingame xmb, none of that has anything to do with 3rd party devs at a GAME DEVELOPERS conference
