Here we are mid way through December 2008 and that means CES 2009 in early January is just around the corner. This year CEA changes the days CES runs from all weekdays as was typical in years past to a Thursday through Sunday arrangement. That means that readers will have to tune in on the weekend for information on the show as well. With the economy down this year's CES show may be missing some of the usually players as rumors swirl that some firms simply can't foot the bill for the high cost of CES 2009. Still, the show will be huge and important for the consumer electronics industry. What exactly we will see at CES 2009 is unknown, but today I am going to make a few predictions for what we will see at the show and mention a few things we already know will be there.

It's great. With Little Big Planet it's even more awesome.

You should get one on boxing day. 399.99 for the 80 GB one and it comes with Little Big PLanet too. Great deal.

Yes. You can invite people to a chatroom and voice chat with them. I never tried the option but it is available.

Quote:

MGS4, LittleBigPlanet, COD4, Blazing Angels, and Resistance 2

Quote:

Online is not laggy. Resistance 2 has 60 players online and it's not laggy. For COD4, online is also fine. It only gets laggy when like my bro is downloading on the computer or something like that.

PS3 ftw.. yo phatkav how is blazing angels.
Wii isn't the next step in gaming.
Both 360 and PS3 are good quality next gens.

I will beat you up Badie if you make bashmo get a 360. The PS3 already has its share of great exclusive games so I don't see why bashmo shouldn't get one.

i am not getting a 360 its hardware is gonna die soon, and wont be able to pull off what PS3 will.

Online is free, and its actually quite great from what ive seen. Blutooth support with Bluray, and 80 gig hardrive makes me want it even more. Oh and PS3's XMB interface is so sleek and cool. New xbox experience BTW is garbage.

And i dont wanna chat with 10 year olds over live o.O oh and can anyone say MGS4 + Resistance 2 + WarHawk + LBP?? This is where its at IMO. Ive played Gears and Halo, and they are old now.

Lastly, I will own online once i get COD5 with my PS3...Type 100 FTW!
