I just got in from the press conference. Sony was talking out of both sides of its mouth. It wants to complain about gimmicks but then shows a Karaoke game, a card game with EyeToy, a game that uses the PSP as a rear-view mirror and then rips off Nintendo's controller.
They were also pretty sneaky in making it seem like the hard disc drive was the only difference. Why the heck would you want the $500 unit? At first, we were joking that the rampant phone calls of "Do you have any pro systems" in stock would be replaced with "Do you have any basic PS3s?"
The games... sigh... the games. Heavenly Sword looked amazing, but the other games were Xbox 360 level at their best. Though I will give props to MGS4/FFXIII.

Right now, this thing is the PlayStation 3DO.
