Sony's Infamous E3 2006 Conference Now Viewable in Clear 1080p | Push Square

Few video game press conferences are remembered more for all the wrong reasons than Sony's 2006 E3 briefing. It set the tone for a PS3 generation that didn't really get going until the PS3 slim steadied the ship, and now you can watch the two-hour disaster in crystal clear 1080p quality. Uploaded by Danny O'Dwyer's NoClip archival YouTube channel, it's just one of many videos the documentary maker is restoring.

Now you can see how memes like the Giant Enemy Crab of Genji: Days of the Blade, «Riiidge Racer», and the $599 price point got started in the best quality yet. With showcases nowadays essentially acting as a slideshow of trailers and reveals, it's also a throwback to when these announcements would actually take place on a physical stage. Good times.

Will you set some time aside to watch this infamous moment in PlayStation history in 1080p? Grab some snacks and have a laugh in the comments below.

Ah yes, now everyone can watch a mess of a conference in pukingly glorious 1080p quality

Jokes aside though, this is a piece of history and a generally good showing of what not to do lol

I want to watch the 2013 show again. That one was hilarious.

Only being a PS fan for a few years this is not something I’ve any knowledge of so fascinated to see it!

I feel like some people want to see current PlayStation fail so bad they’re bring up they old failures lol.

Why is Ted Price wearing a Phil Harrison’s worth of clothing?

I love the PS3 but Sony made so many mistakes marketing the system, not to mention
