Prince of Persia made its community debut and we had a chance to take the adventure for a spin. Killzone 2 surprised everyone with its presence but no one with its style and Dead Space proved that even a game releasing next week will garner a pile of crowd attention.
Here's a recap of all the coverage out of the Sony Holiday Event in Toronto, Canada, as well as images from the event:

It wasn't an open event. It was Press and by Invite Only... and I have no idea how people received invites.
We didn't get our notification until the day before. That's kinda how Sony Canada rolls.
Sorry!

I'm with everyone saying "this was in Toronto? CRAP!"... I didn't hear anything about this.
From the looks of it, it was either at the Distillery District, or Leslieville.
Well, there's always next year??

Can it be in Windsor next year? I know Detroit is out of the question because is so incredibly violent here but I can drive to Windsor in 10 minutes.....Sony you should look into that.
