It’s that time of the year again.. A time where all the big names in the Gaming industry converge on one city for the biggest Video Game conference in the world.  Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo go head to head in an all out war to see who can put on the best show and grab the most attention.

Out of all the shows that were put on, Sony had the best in my opinion, as usual. Call me bi est but the Playstation 3 has one of the best line up of games and one of my favorite hosts Jack Tretton.

Follow the jump to check out the highlights of Sony’s E3 Press Conference, including Resistance 2, Killzone 2, Final Fantasy XIII and the new PSN on demand video store!

Resistance 2

In 1951 we lost Chicago, millions never made it out. … now Chicago is enemy territory.” 350ft tall Chimera called Leviathan. “resistance 2 is a story of a country under siege, broken by a superior foe.

Resistance 2 also breaks new ground with it’s 8-player online co-op and 60 player online multiplayer … While many games talk about scale, resistance 2 truly delivers. This game is big, epic.. Resistance 2 offers more than any shooter in 2008 … I’m Ted Price, president and CEO of insomniac games, and this is resistance 2.

Final Fantasy XIII

Final Fantasy XIII is part of three games being called Fabula Nova Crystallis (that’s “The New Tale of The Crystal” to those of us not fluent in Latin), with two of the titles appearing on PS3 and one on mobile phones. The fantasy is far from over!

Prince of Persia

The plagued prince returns in his first next-gen adventure. Ubisoft has planned a number of adjustments to the series, with a new design for the prince, a new armored gauntlet with incredible powers, and a renewed focus on platforming and physical challenges rather than fighting.

Killzone 2

Two years after the Helghast assault on Vekta, the ISA is bringing the fight to the enemy’s home world of Helghan. Taking the role of Sev, the battle-hardened veteran of the special forces unit known as the Legion, players will embark upon a mission to the planet Helghan to capture the Helghast leader, Emperor Visari, and bring the enemy’s war machine to a halt.

Flower

When I settled in to play the game, I had the privilege of talking to the Creative Director of the title about what the game is doing. He explained that flOwer is attempting to create a sort of harmony between nature and urban life, and he hopes that people who play the game completely will feel good and perhaps even a little different.

His last explanation came to us in the form of a comparison. He noted that while the developers considered flOw to be an abstract haiku, flOwer is more like a traditional (possibly western) poem.

PSN Video

Sony’s new video service on the PS3 allows rentals or purchases of TV episodes and movies that can also be transferred to the PSP. So far, partners in the service include Sony Pictures (obviously), Fox, MGM, Lionsgate, Warner, Disney, Paramount, Turner, and Funimation.

Playstation Home

Not only is Home your home online with PlayStation 3, Home is also a vast network of communication for PlayStation users. Browse the Hall of Fame for trophies players have collected in various videogames, or just hang out in a virtual outdoor lobby to talk with text and voice. Other features in Home include a theater where the Home world also users can watch videos from one users’ collection together, a series of mini-games that players can play, and much more as Home evolves.
