CoD3 allows you to play 4 player split-screen, online together. It’s a very cool feature – you can have some friends over to your place, then go online together to kick some online butt! Is this technically even possible on the PS3?

Will you please ask when/if Sony plans on fixing the 1080i upscaling problem? My TV only outputs 1080i for HD and it’s really annoying not being able to play all my PS3 games in HD. Thanks guys.

1) Will the PSP’s XMB get a stand-alone extension of the PS3′s friend’s list?
2) Will future online PSP games use a similar “PSN ID” as is with PS3 online games?
3) Will the ‘PlayStation Store’ be added to the PSP’s XMB menu?

1) Very interested to know if RSX will EVER be supported under Linux also? Yes/No will do.

2) When will basic multi-tasking functions be implemented?

3) Suggestion: Team up with Apple Computer and let us download HD Content such as TV-Shows (things not available on Blu-Ray maybe) through an iTunes interface. Music too of course

I really hope you guys will have enough time to talk to Phil. I have tons more questions, but those are the most important ones. Can’t wait to get some answers. )

1) afrika, Afrika, AFRIKA!!! What the hell is it? When can we expect it? Why dangle it in front of us at every event, and NOT TELL US A THING AS TO WHAT IT IS? Any new info on the game will be greatly appreciated.

2) How is that Naughty Dog action title coming along? Can we expect it sometime in 07?

3) Are their any plans on letting the open platform philosophy of the PS3 spill over to the PSP? We know that part of it is to restrict piracy, but couldnt there be an outlet provided by sony for legitimate homebrew applications, similar to how firefox hosts user created extensions?

COOL
so plz ask these couple of questions:
1) RSX: as far as we see these amazing PS3 superior graphics we dont care about the hardware which blow them to our eyes but why is sony not revealing the final specs of the RSX ?
2) Eight days: when, where and how to see more of eight days?how is it shaping up?

Questions for Phil Harrison:

1) Will a future firmware version allow the PS3 to downscale 1080p Blu-ray movies to 720p? When? (Yes Phil I know that can be done by the display, but most TVs’ internal scaler is crap)

2) Will a future firmware version allow the PS3 to upscale games which are internally rendered in 720p (like Resistance) to 1080p? When? (Yes Phil I know that can be done by the display, but most TVs’ internal scaler is crap)

3) Will a future firmware version allow the PS3 to scale Blu-ray movies and games to 768p (=1360x768p)? When? (Yes Phil I know that can be done by the display, but most TVs’ internal scaler is crap)

4) What games are coming out that support 1080p 60fps? What about GRAW 2?

Hmmm… kind of knew that already Dingo, but this is just a pre-liminary set of questions. I’d like to see what information we can find out hardware-wise from what he says about the software- ie. “Does Eye of Judgement mean we will get a new Eyetoy at the same time?… Will this do anything else the PS2 one does not?”.

Cheers to the rest of you, you’re giving me some great ideas, particularly Koorb; I was wondering if I could approach the situation like that!

Darrin- by exclusives I meant 360 titles like Alan Wake, Blue Dragon etc… Basically stuff that Microsoft is publishing but is getting created by major development houses/devdelopers; as opposed to Sony where most of the things they publish are first party.
