Playstation 3 Unveiled -- 9:41 am CST, Update by A.T. Hun

Sony revealed the Playstation 3 to the world at E3 and Anandtech was there. In that article, Anand basically comments briefly on Sony's PowerPoint presentation. The most interesting part of that for me was seeing the Unreal Engine 3 running on PS3 hardware. He also offers his thoughts on the PS3 vis-á-vis the Xbox 360 in his blog. One concern that he and many others have is about the PS3's controller which looks rather, ahem, interesting. Then again, I thought the PS2's Dual-Shock looked odd until I tried it too.

Check out this footage for Killzone 2. I've got to wonder if that's a pre-rendered demo or real-time. If it is real-time . . . wow. Update! Evidently it is pre-rendered. Still, if the actual game can come close to matching that footage . . .
