NEOGAF escribió:- They research markets in the different eu countries to find the best 60GB/20GB ratio. GB will have the biggest proportion of 60GBs, then France and Germany with a slightly bigger amount of 60GBs. Southern countries like Italy, Spain and Greece will have more 20GB versions.
- Only 60Gb at launch (in germany at least). 20GB might be not available from day one, but it'll come out till Christmas for sure.
- The installed HDD is made by Seagate (he's not sure though). You'll be able to upgrade it with a standard HDD. Sony will not release its own HDDs.
- The motion sensing sw tools have been added to the devkit sw package about 2-3 weeks ago.
- The production hasn't started yet, but they have all the components necessary so they just wait for a go (in south of China and near Tokyo).
- Different colors (they ask about silver explicitly) will be launched later, supposedly Q1 07.
- Confronted with: "ps3 looks like cheap plastic". The ps3 will have a polyester coating. A special polishing liquid will be available to prevent scratches
- Confronted with: "but it's black so what about the problem with fingerprints -> psp".
"I haven't touched it yet. We use gloves. We are said to use gloves."
PR-Chef Nick Staples jumps in: the ps3 will not be caried around and overly touched normaly. They used gloves to show it around, hence no fingerprints, but therefore white fluff (from the glove).
- The ps3 will boost hdtv market penetration. All devisions of sony promote the ps3: Sony Pictures (Bluray), Sony Electronics (HDTVs) and we [SCE] make sure it all works out. There will be 'PlayStation Places' in capital cities all over the world where you can experience those 3 devision coming together (PS3, HD and Bluray).
- No plans for a HD-DVD drive addon (orly?!) ( )
- Confronted with the weekly sales numbers of 360 (18.000) vs ps2 (100.000) in the eu and asked about how the ps2 will be positioned during the ps3 launch; "Supposedly the ps3 will appeal to the hardcore gamer and only later broaden its demographic?"
-> "Yes. The ppl who who will buy the ps3 have a ps2 or maybe even a 360, but in the course of 1-2 years the ps2 and ps3 markets will stay separated."
- 45% of their business is now outside the eu (e.g. russia, middle east).
- There is way more preorders compared to ps2. They take preorders in Fr, Ger and UK.
They also spoke to Guido Alt, a spokesperson of Sony Germany:
- He doubts that MS has sold 6 million 360s already and also doubts that they'll sell 10 Million before 2007, even with a price drop and Gears of War coming.

Eso no es del todo cierto, llevan añadidas mas tiempo (tampoco demasiado) y hacerlas funcionar es bastante complicado (bueno, todo es bastante mas complicado de hacer funcionar, los kits de desarrollo no son ninguna maravilla...) Curiosamente enviaron el pad final sin dichas librerias hace mas de un mes xD
Lo que no comentan por ahí es que el kernel de la maquina se "traga" 93 Mb de RAM, además de una SPE para el solito... y otra SPE mas si se activa la "Guia PS3" (similar a la de Xbox360).
Saludos
PD: no tengo ninguna intención de crear absurdas polemicas con todo esto, son datos que tengo a traves de desarrolladores. El que quiera que se lo crea y el que no, pues no.
