Game Informer hypes two so-called "Year Definining" Announcements

It's the new HD Wii and new PSP. Sorry for "ruining" it for everyone.

Links?

I wonder if these announcements are going to be as "Spectacular" as Sega said the theirs would be when they announced Matrix Online

I've never played it but I doubt it was as buggy and all around bad as Enter The Matrix was.

I was a regular poster on the Sega Forums back when they announced their partnership in the making of the Matrix Online and they said something along the lines of it being the game announcment of the year and it will change everything. Everyone assumed something like a new console... but oh no... Just the Matrix.

It's always like that. Whenever the PR guys prep you by saying how amazing an announcement is going to be, it's usually something either very predictable (as in, no announcement is needed at all) or very stupid. Like back when everybody was going nuts over "It" and what "It" could possibly be. I remember thinking that for something that's getting this much fanfare it better be some kind of cold fusion reactor. But, nope. It was just a scooter that doesn't fall down. I can't remember the last time I was significantly "prepped" for an announcement and had the announcement actually wow me. Usually, the announcements that do wow me tend to be the ones that come out of left field.
