It's all about the games, say Sony
Sony Computer Entertainment America President Jack Tretton has confirmed that Sony has a few surprises in store for this year's scaled-down E3.
Tretton says that the company has "more than 15 games coming from their internal studios alone this year," with third party developers bringing the total amount of PS3 games to 100 titles by the end of the year.
At the event Sony will be showing off the likes of Heavenly Sword, Ratchet & Clank Future and Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, a stunning looking action adventure from American game company Naughty Dog.
Sony has recently opened a new Playstation blog, allowing company big-wigs to post their own thoughts and news from inside Sony HQ. On the website, Tretton has said that Sony ultimately want to create PS3 game that will entertain and push the boundaries of conventional gaming.
We have to bring the games to market that will showcase what the PS3 can do and ultimately entertain you like no other games have. We need to provide proof of what the PS3 can do for you and work tirelessly to improve the value and justify your investment. At the end of the day, it's always been about the games. To push the boundaries of gaming beyond where they currently lie takes a great deal of risk. I think all the hardware manufacturers are doing that in some way. We could have easily produced PlayStation 2.5 at a slightly increased price over the older model, and driven some nice profits and marginal innovation for a few years but that's not how we got where we are today. You have to gamble and make major investments in the present that will pay dividends in the future.
