Like Nintendo, Sony has decided not to grace the currently running Leipzig Game Convention with any playable games for its new console, PS3, instead opting to show only a selection of - mostly - previously aired trailers. However, it does have a machine for show goers to gaze at longingly and we've thoughtfully taken a picture of it so you can eye it up for yourself from the comfort of your own chair.
It stands alone on a pedestal, accompanied by a solitary PS3 controller. It might not be plugged in and is just sitting there all shiny and quiet like, but that hasn't stopped it from being a constant crowd magnet.

People are hungry for PS3 but, unfortunately, they're going to leave Leipzig with pretty empty bellies - it looks like this year's Tokyo Game Show, running from 22-24 September, is going to be Sony's major focus in the run up to the console's November launch.
