Sony Prepping Biggest E3 in 11 Years

Everyone knows that E3 2008 was the biggest waste of time for gamers and companies. This year we are all hoping E3 will return to a more entertaining and informative form. Thus far, Microsoft and Nintendo have released the usual “wait for E3” and “We have something planned for E3” talks. Sony is talking a bit more, though.

“We’ve just started planning what the announcements will be, but I’ve been here for 11 years: this will be one of the larger E3s in terms of software and just discussions about where we’re going from a brand perspective and where each of the platforms is headed.”

“I think some of the big announcements are going to come of the software side. We talked a bit at Destination PlayStation, and came out with about half of the PSP line-up, maybe even less, and the balance we’re going to be talking about in the months leading up to e3 and at E3,” he said.

“The same goes for PS3. There’s a really strong line-up of games that’s going to help drive a lot of business.”

What software will Sony be showcasing to us this year? Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII will be a given. Aside from big third-party titles, I’m sure Sony must have some massive first-party titles in development. We’ve already seen Uncharted 2 and God of War 3, which we should see in demo form during the week of E3. Could we see a Heavenly Sword sequel? What big software announcements could Sony be holding back for both the PS3 and PSP?

Whatever they have planned for E3, they have me excited. Just don’t disappoint.
