SCEE boss David Reeves says E3 was a phoney war

SCEE's president and CEO David Reeves has told MCV that E3 was a phoney war, and that Sony will let off the first of its peak season “fireworks” in Leipzig next month.

Talking exclusively to MCV, he intimated that a series of big announcements will be made at the Game Convention trade and consumer show in Germany – massively enhancing the appeal of both the PlayStation 3 and PSP.


“We prefer to make our big statements in Leipzig, it suits us much better,” Reeves told MCV. “Yes it has been a bit of a slow summer, but we feel that we have kept the momentum going.

“There will be absolute fireworks at peak, that I can promise you. We will be doing things no-one has seen yet for both PS3 and PSP.”

Video-on-demand, Freeview TV and price cut expected in UK pre-Christmas

MCV believes that SCEE is readying a number of significant announcements for next month's Leipzig Games Convention - with a possible European PS3 price-cut leading the way.

Whilst Sony has not confirmed its exact Leipzig plan, MCV believes that territories across Europe and other export markets could also be getting video-on-demand services and Freeview TV features this side of Christmas.

MCVs prediction follows comments from SCEE's president and CEO David Reeves in which he claimed that Sony will let off the first of its peak season “fireworks” in Leipzig next month.
