***** FULL VIDEO AVAILABLE HERE ******

Here are the messages delivered - sorry its badly written, tapped whilst i watched.

BIG mesage is the announcement - confirmation
GT5 WILL SHIP THIS YEAR AND IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT


Topics covered in the feed....

New Motion Controller - Most precise controller ever experienced - PLAYSTATION MOVE

From the tiniest twitch to the most aggressive punch, everything is captured. Sony thank Nintendo for introducing the concept to the masses, and now PS Move will pick up and move it on. The aim is to bring the game into the living room.

Combines the playstation Eye with the MOVE device to deliver a precision unheard of before. The precision is what’s special, not a clumsy Nintendo device which limits the interaction with the games, PS Move will give real gamers the level of accurate response to reach true motion control.

FEELS JUST LIKE IT SHOULD

Zero lag, no latency - same response as a 6axes controller - ie - real time response..

Ability to utilise 2 controllers at once for improved ability in games.

demo of sword fighting looked average to me.
Table Tennis demo (able to detect the angle of the bat, not just up and down, but the cam allows to detect when holding the bat flat or at an angle)
Rotating the controller looks awesome and special.

Move Party -
Augmented reality - using PS EYE - very good demo of close matching of movements - very like original PS EYETOY games, wishy-washy of old.

EYE PET interaction, Looks like nothing new to me, all functions demoed are available with the magic card in the original launch

Motion Fighters - looks very good.

LITTLE BIG PLANET with MOVE looks like minimal interaction, you can pick up items and spin them around – no biggie imo.

Playstation move sub controller - for shooters etc. socom4 designed for ps move and sub controller. camera and crosshair controlled with one stick, and movement with the sub controller - very precise, hardly see the guy moving the controller, no waving of arms, tiny movement tracked fully. proper motion controller (not sure it adds anthing, perhaps when we see it we will make our decisions)

MOVE is very quick to implement controller into games, simple and very little overhead on system resources. Almost all 3rd party developers are engaged and working on implementing the Move technology.

playstation eye, the controller and a game due this year and priced under 100 dollars

Sony congratulate themselves for Killzone 2 and Uncharted 2 graphical quality
PS3 slim technology improvement. MAGS for online multiplayer technology. Heavy Rain for being outstandingly different. White night cronicles and final fantasy.

PS3 is the only console platform to experiance 15% increase on demand last year

God Of War 3 - Launch Party, confirming PS3 is the only platform to be able to handle the technical demands of this title.

GT5 WILL SHIP THIS YEAR AND IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT

TRUE 3D gaming is coming very soon – REALLY 3D - this will be the next big thing after motion control.
