Gamespot has some good coverage of what has happened in the Sony Playstation 3 launch thus far.  The specs for this piece of console hardware look just as impressive as the Xbox 360!  3.2 GHz Cell processor, Blu-Ray Disc support, 256 MB of XDR system memory running at 3.2 GHz (4 x 800 MHz) and 256 MB of GDDR3 at 700 MHz. 

Update: Here are some photos of the system!  Gamespot’s mirror of the same images.

What’s even more exciting than that?

However Sweeney’s words were only the beginning. Later, Sony trotted out a whole host of publishers who are backing the PlayStation 3–and in the process confirmed several games for the console. Hideo Kojima introduced Konami’s Metal Gear Solid 4, Capcom showed off Devil May Cry 4, Namco unveiled Tekken 6, Polyphony Digital trotted out Gran Turismo 5, SCEE showed off a brutal demo of the next Killzone.
