The pipeline for the PlayStation brand is being expanded in 2008. Sony CEO Howard Stringer yesterday said at CES that a plethora of new features and software will be hitting both the PS3 and the PS2. Stringer said that video downloads is just one of the improvements expected for the PlayStation Network.

Additionally, Stringer said Sony will be hosting a press conference in the next two months to "discuss the future of PlayStation 3." We can surely expect to hear some more about Sony's announced and unannounced '08 titles then.

And, if the PS3 news wasn't enough, Stringer believes that Sony will combat the Wii via their legacy hardware: PlayStation 2. Continued support in 2008 with "casual games and non-core gamer games" will be the main lines of artillery for the aging console to duel Wii with.

Stay tuned.
