I cannot understand a thing: they signed with nVidia 2 months ago the joint development of the grpahic processor and they wanna have playable games at E3?

Yeah, sounds kinda fishy. I wouldn\'t be surprised if it\'s just tech demos being showed.

Dude...it\'s been announced on about 10 thousand webpages.

The NVIDIA GPU probably won\'t be finished til the end of 2005. So this is making me a bit skeptical as to what they\'re going to show exactly. Maybe the GPU will be finished sooner than expected? Of course, they won\'t be manufacturing the PS3 on a mass scale, they just need a few available for E3.

And what\'s the point of showing either a demo or technical features if the main core is not finished? It\'s a nonsense in my opinion. I think all these rumours and race to show firstly a machine than other company only responds to marketing rather to real commerce of quality.

The first time PS2 was unveiled was a few computers connected emulating an estimation of the capabilities of the final product.
ofcourse it would be marketing.But still it will be an indication of what to expect

I think they will maybe show off the design? hopefully?

Any graphics demos they show will have to be taken lightly, I really don\'t think Sony will tell the truth about the graphics end so soon.

Guys......, Sony & Nvidia have been working together on PS3\'s GPU already for
more than 2 years. :)

....not just purely hardware either. The PS2\'s gpu software development tools were \'weak\' becuz they were created in-house by Sony Toshiba.

Nvidia has been busy on that for PS3 so development should go much more smooth for developers compared to PS2 coding.

yeah I was gonna say, Nvidia has been working with sony on the ps3 gpu for several years now.  It just recently became public knowledge a little while ago, although many were speculating they got together when ATI locked up contracts with MS and Nintendo.
