PS3 Manufacturer Asustek Warns The Media On PS3 Leaked Reports

Posted Jul 20, 2006 at 1:40PM EST by QJ Staff

Ó

ps3PS3 fans have been overjoyed by reports saying that  PS3 units are already coming off the production line. While the celebration and revelry ensue, PS3 manufacturer Asustek sent a word of warning to media about yesterday's leaked reports. The company isn't thrilled about the leakage and immediately sent a strongly-worded statement saying that it intends to "sue any outlets that had damaged relationships with its clients."

Asustek is said to have toughened up its policy on employee leaks following yesterday's reports. The company has refused to comment directly on the issue of the manufactured PS3s. So there's really no confirmation nor denial at all. Well, firing a warning shot at the media and Asustek dodging the issue could be the company's strange way of confirming the reports.

It's not like some employee said to the presses:

"DON'T GET A PS3!! IT'LL BURN YOUR HOUSE DOWN!!" or "Here's the REAL specs, and they're better/worse than anticipated" or even "hehehe... the PS3 only costs $300 to manufacture!!"



Yeah, Vecha, I think Sony really wanted to surprise us all, possibly even with a larger quantity of PS3s than the projected 2million+ by December.

good chances sony wanted to "make the show", now maybe the show won't be as good :( them news, I wanted to be suprised lol, I'll make my :| face when they'll say the news so at least sony with think they supprised someone lol, anyway I suppose this is great news ( the reaction of the company let us think too much I suppose ).



Anyway I hope this is not a rumor, this could kill the sony conferance ( if they doesn't enven talk about production I don't see what they'll talk about... I just hope they do great at TGS )

It's all about the NDA they signed with Sony.



And about TGS, Killzone 3 is going to own everyone.
