Hasta La Gadget!

This year Sony will be the last of the big three gaming companies to hold a press conference, coming on the heel’s of Monday’s Microsoft Xbox and Tuesday’s Nintendo events. And once again, PCMag will be live-blogging the event, which begins at noon Pacific time, 3 PM Eastern.

So, what can we expect from the Japanese electronics giant? Your guess is as good as ours. Top rumors include a brand new portable platform–a PSP 2, taking the reigns from its predecessor, which has been floundering a bit in recent years, despite attempts to revitalize the platform with the updated PSP Go.

There’s also some online talk (and some leaked shots) of the PlayStation 4. This one seems a lot more unlikely. The PS3 is far from the company’s planned ten-year lifespan. Heck, games are still coming out for the PS2.
