Sony Corp. unveiled three flavors of its new PlayStation 3 video game machine Monday in what is likely a new round of console wars with rivals Microsoft Corp. and Nintendo Co.
The new machine, set for release in the spring of 2006, is about the same size as the current generation PlayStation 2 but has a more rounded look. Besides black, the PS3 will be available in silver and white.
Sony officials said the PS3's new processor technology called Cell will offer high performance for movie-like realism in games, high-definition movies and other features.
"The PS3 is truly is a system to be placed in the center of the living room," said Ken Kutaragi, creator of the original PlayStation console as well as the more recent PlayStation Portable handheld.
Prices or a specific lineup of games that will be available were not were not provided, though Sony showed off numerous demonstrations of games in development.

For all of us who don't live in the same state, is it a ritzy area?
Just let me know if you need me, as a woman, to convince your wife to convert the garage into a home theater room.
I loved Intellevision, too. Celicovison was awesome as well. I loved "Pitfall."
Wow, that's an oldie. Possibly not as old as one of my favorite shoot-em-ups, though - "Parsec" on the TI-99/4A. That was one of the games that supported that plug-in accessory voice synthesizer! Good game, too.
