Sony's Play B3yond

Not trying to fuel the Sony marketing machine any more than it already has been, but I thought the PS3 promo videos on Sony's Play B3yond site were pretty interesting. Narrated by none other than Lance Henriksen (I assume) of Aliens fame.

Compare these videos to the actual launch titles shown here and it becomes obvious that Sony has overhyped the machine to no end. With Microsoft smartly timing the release of Gears of War before the launch of the PS3, they have clearly won the best game/best graphics award this year.

I'm sure the situation will be different next year when titles like Final Fantasy XIII, (which will be more optimized for the PS3's hardware) are released, but for now it looks like GoW is king.

Leave it to Wikipedia to confirm that it was indeed Lance Henriksen that voiced the PS3 commercials. That guy is awesome!!!
