In what appears to be the final news conference for Sony and the PS3 they announced some key bits of news. Here's the full story from Gamespot: http://www.gamespot.com/news/6160127.html

Notables include that the first 500,000 PS3's in North America will ship with a Blu-Ray copy of Talladega Nights, online information (mostly what I was expecting: free, video chatting, friends, blah blah blah), lots of trailers, the controller battery lasts for 30 hours which makes the 1000 charge limit give it 30,000 hours of life (which is also 1250 days which is also 3 years and 5 months), and much more. Post what you think is most notable because I'm sure I am leaving things out.

Talladega Nights is a funny movie.
30 hours isnt enough for me.

How can that not be enough? YI don't see how you can play for more than 30 straight hours, then you charge it up for 2.5 hours and it can go for 30 more.

hmm, compare it to wiimote, which runs on AA. i think it has 30-60 hours, depending on functions being used.

Whats the Wiimote got to do with it? Completely different controllers altogether. If anyone plays games for 30 hours non-stop then they really need to get a life! :)

Whatever people think of the SIXASIS there will, as always, eventually be loads of third party controllers to choose from.
