Au contraire, I would assume:
+ is good news.
- is bad news.
~ is neutral/indifferent news.
Yes, that's what they mean. Taken from a summary on Gaf.
I wanted to go through and see what hasn't come to be as yet. Like eye toy integration and EA not using blu-ray.
Here we go:
Things he's got right:
1. Resistance size
2. Resistance sound
3. Resistance weapons

6. Gran Turismo HD being a real game
7. Virtual Tennis looking better on PS3 than 360 because of textures. (he said sports game not VT3 but many believe this is the one since most people that have seen it say the textures in PS3 looked better)
8. Lair playable at TGS
9 PSP and PS3 new store opens where you can buy movies, games, music around November 11
10 PSP is an output device for PS3 (use the PSP as a TV and remote, WOW! would be amazing hopefully there is no lag)
11 GPS was delayed and now coming 12/7 for Japan which means most likely it will come in the summer for the US
12 Online service absolutely 100% free… no tiers, no subscription. like having Xbox Live Gold (well this is almost completely confirmed)
13. Reintroduce UMD to the masses with lower price and more features (Its japan in japan already)
14. Lair to use motion sensing controller at TGS.
15. Killzone to be shown closer to the PS3 launch. (sony confirms: Killzone: Liberation, which is coming out this Halloween. But shortly afterwards there might be some more information on the future Killzone project on PlayStation 3)
16. Lair demo at TGS to be amazing looking.
17 Full featured web browser and the PS3 will have native Keyboard and Mouse support
18 3rd party developers (EA, UbiSoft) have already announced their pricing schemes for next-gen games. PS3 games will generally cost the same as Xbox 360 titles

* PSP emulator coming october (yay!)
* SquareEnix one of the first being approached for games on PS1 emulator.
* PSP many first party PS1 titles will be available
