    I don't understand why (in relation to Yakuza 3) they do not simply hand it off to Atlus to translate and release.

    @slim934: Like Foxstar says, Sega doesn't want anyone else to get the money if it does turn out to be a success - which, Sega doesn't think it will be a success, but still.

    They're sorta like a child that has a toy that everyone else wants to play with. Even though he has lost interest in it, he doesn't want anyone else to have fun with it either.

    Don't buy it if you don't want to. But this is a great move for us who don't care if we buy digital games or not.

    To be a fly on the wall for this 'discussion'.

    I would've given 2 pudding cups and 1 pack of Gushers.

    Judging from Sega's panicked response, deletion of any related threads on their official forums, and their begging of European websites not to run the story, looks like all of this is true. Nice job, Sega.

    considering how bad sony sucks at containing leaks, this has a 90% chance of being true. Just like that awesome commercial, haha. "Dear playstation, I got a top that you were making the PS3 slim $299. CONFIRM OR DENY." haha awesome commercial

    When they announced Home to the world we was put through months of "Why can't they just release it" - leading to big expectations and lots of hate posts.

    When they leak a little info, they can test our temperature while getting us a little hyped.

    Please stooop using SKU as a widespread term. It doesn't mean a console.
    It's a number you give it to help organize products, and everything that is sold (be it product or service).
    Hence, the term "PS3 SKU" can mean a console, game, controller, cable, headset, peripheral or even PS3-specific repairs etc
    Taking SKU to mean different console is just a fad, but while it's true, it's not really an applicable term, because it doesn't just mean consoles. The word is something that can be equated to "thing or service" and upon hearing that it makes me wonder if one could be anymore vague.
    "I sell SKUs" would quite frankly be a correct, yet terrible answer on the question "What do you sell?"

    edit: Though if someone did literally leave a dev console out on the streets that'd be a bit insane.

    Motion Controller support allows easy way to differentiate PS3 SKU

    Are they saying the motion controller won't be compatible with all PS3s?

    @shufflemoomin: What they are probably trying to say is that motion-controller supporting games will be branded in a way that shows they are motion-controller supported games. So that people with them will know the game supports it, and those without the controller will know they need it. Errr... yes.
