Sony draws up Leipzig battle lines

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.”
