No PS3 announcement at CES 2006

We’ve all been anxiously awaiting this month’s International Consumer Electronics Show, mainly because we want details on the PS3 which will soon be following the Xbox360 into the next-gen gaming arena. But could we all be in for a big disappointment? TG Daily is reporting that Sony representatives denied that any sort of PS3 announcement would be made at CES. If true, this means that while the PS3 will be at CES, you shouldn’t expect any new information regarding launch titles, launch date, or estimated price.

A spokesperson for Sony’s PlayStation division denied to TG Daily this morning that the company would be making a PlayStation 3 related announcement at CES 2006.
“Although we are participating in many CES activities with Sony,” said the spokesperson, “we have no new announcements on PlayStation 3 planned at this time.”Sony Corporation has planned special announcements on Wednesday evening and Thursday morning, which had been presumed by many in the press and elsewhere to pertain to PS3.
