K, we're in.

Good news - they've got it working.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:53:25 AM
Bad news - no filming, and it's the E3 demo.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:53:47 AM
I'll be taking pics, though.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:53:54 AM
They just tried to make us deaf with a fucked speaker.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:54:45 AM
Hopefully this isn't an indication of what's about to happen.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:55:03 AM
We were watching them testing it through the room's door. They were shooting the skeletons with the horny hats.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:55:25 AM
Movement. Should be just a few minutes.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:56:40 AM
The word "disappointing" is being bandied around in the crowd. Hopefully the demo will make up for it.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:57:13 AM
We should get some new info at least.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:57:47 AM
Matt GI and Ellie Eurogamer sat behind me. Very professional.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 9:59:04 AM
The atmosphere's a bit more jovial than it was yesterday. I think everyone's still pissed.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:00:31 AM
Phil Harrison and Shuhei Yoshida were at the GI party last night, by the way.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:00:46 AM
Right, we're off.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:00:51 AM
Guy on stage making intro in Swahili. Seriously.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:02:02 AM
They're stressing there's no filming because it's "protoype hardware".
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:02:18 AM
They're specifically going to tell us when we can take photos.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:02:34 AM
Kish Hirani's talking now.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:03:08 AM
The motion controller was stuck in British customs for four days.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:03:41 AM
It's "really cold in there". "Hopefully it'll be running."
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:03:53 AM
They're saying the back half of the talk will be "very technical".
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:04:23 AM
SCEE dev services are based in central London.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:04:35 AM
Talking about PlayStation DevNet.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:04:58 AM
They're getting an indication of who's worked on which platform.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:05:11 AM
"If you ever want to become a PlayStation developer it's not that difficult. We'll get you there."
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:05:32 AM
The Home icon has now been added to Devnet.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:06:06 AM
Hot shit.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:06:08 AM
He's talking about the "mini dev kit". It's been about for six months.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:06:30 AM
It's on the screen.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:06:33 AM
Um...
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:06:34 AM
I can't take a shot of it. It just looks like a little PS3.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:07:00 AM
He's holding up a PSP Go dev kit unit.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:07:26 AM
It's a PSP Go with a fuck off lead sticking out of the back of it.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:07:44 AM
He's got the motion sticks in his hand.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:07:53 AM
"It doesn't like me moving on the stage."
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:08:00 AM
He's holding two sticks. One with a purple light on top, one with a red light.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:08:24 AM
"It doesn't resemble the final unit as such."
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:08:32 AM
The PS Eye is tracking the ball. The camera tracks the X, Y position. Depth is tracked by the "size of the ball".
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:09:02 AM
He's just confirmed he's going to do the E3 demo again.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:09:13 AM
"There's no hidden agenda" to showing the same stuff. "It's because everyone in the office loves it."
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:09:32 AM
He's playing the game.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:09:43 AM
He's using the right stick to throw shuriken at the advancing zombies.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:10:07 AM
He's a bit rubbish at it.
by patlike at 7/16/2009 10:10:22 AM
He's going mental, throwing dozens of shuriken very quickly.
