Future looks good.. if we just consider exclusives i'll probably get all of the below
Uncharted 2, MAG, GT5, GOW3, The Last Guardian, Heavy Rain, Modnation Racers, FF Versus, Demon Souls, Ratchet & Clankand WKC... Hoping we'll see an EU/US version forYakuza 3..
surely there are others in development which i either forgot or else still to be announced :)
well maybe will announce price drod on TGS.Well as for its future games on PS3 keeps getting better and better.. out of the 3 console right now it has the brightest future ahead IMO.
God of War 3 and Uncharted II is all that is notable, regardless of what any Cow will say. It's worth investing in one but if you are straight out of college wait for a price drop, you'll thank me when it comes around Christmas to early next yearToriko42lol and u called yourself a FF fan in the other thread. Final Fantasy Versus XII says hi. as for the TC. Final Fantasy XIII - Spring 2010 Final Fantasy Versus XIII - 2010 Final Fantasy XIV Online - 2010 Fallout: New Vegas - 2010 God of War III - march 2010 Heavy Rain - Early 2010 ModNation Racers - 1st half 2010 Dead Rising 2 - 2009 M.A.G. - fall 2009 Gran Turismo 5 - 2009 Demons Souls - Q4 2009 Uncharted 2 - fall 2009 (Q4) Alpha Protocol - fall 2009 (Q3) Assassins Creed 2 - nov 17 Modern Warfare 2 - nov 10 Bioshock 2 - nov 3 The Last Guardian Agent Crysis 2 Mirrors Edge 2
But does that really matter? Exclusives are great, but the price (which shows no indication of dropping aside from rumors which are proven false again and again) keeps so many people from buying it. Plus, its reputation is nowhere near that of the 360 or Wii. So, aside from exclusives, what does it have going for it? Just playing devil's advocate.Future looks good.. if we just consider exclusives i'll probably get all of the below

Plenty of good exclusive and multiplat games already out and even more coming. also it plays Bluray movies. I'd say it's worth investing in. And if by your question if it's still rlevant you mean to say that you think Sony might drop support for the PS3, well, that's never going to happen.

dereknippl-e
if the price is expensive for you then there is nothing I can tell you which might make you wanna get a PS3.. you should just wait till maybe a price-cut is announced..
I got my PS3 because i knew what it offered in terms of features and unless you havent following the gaming scene the past 3 yrs you should also know it too..
what do you think lies in PS3's future?dereknippl-eAs oppose to? PC? 360? as far as any console goes, it's worth getting.
First of all, let me just say that I've posted this on a few other forums because I want to get as much feedback as possible, so please don't flame me or accuse me of trollng or fanboyism. I graduate from college and start work in six months and I really want to buy a PS3 once I actually start earning, from my own money. But the way things are going for it right now leaves me wondering if, six months or a year from now, it'll even be relevant. So I gotta ask: what do you think lies in PS3's future?dereknippl-e
More fantastic games...it's been great since Summer of '08!
Say it with me! :)
As far as a Price Drop, maybe there will be one at Xmas, but the PS3 is ALREADY $200 cheaper than it was at launch, so that's a plus.
As far as trying to imply some sort of negative about the PS3, you're on the wrong track, bud. :)

The PS3 had a bad start, but Sony is making up for it now. I just hope it isn't too late.

I think the PS3 has a decent future ahead. Some good games are coming out and its hardware will be relevant for many years to come... Sony is not going to be replacing its console anytime soon.
But isn't the gap between the 360 and the PS3 widening? Also, aside from some supposed "mole" at Ars Technica, what reason do we have to believe that the price will drop other than hunches? And how sure can we be that they're bringing back BC? Maybe it's the pessimist in me, but is it really that ridiculous to think it'll be obsolete in a year?dereknippl-e
the patent itself is pretty solid proof for the BC point.
But the PS3's hitting out exclusive games like god knows what and most of them are top of the line games..KZ2 and R2 have been 2 of the most improved sequels.Sony aint stupid when it comes to getting new IP's.Wouldnt surprise me if there isnt more new IP's on the way we dont know about.

you got the existing exclusives on PS3 like MGS4, Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction, Killzone 2, inFamous, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, Uncharted : Drake's Fortune, Resistance : Fall of Man, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet.
-----------------------------------
Coming out later this year alone is gonna be..... Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time, Uncharted 2 : Among Thieves, MAG, Demon's Souls, Afrika, and strong change of Gran Turismo 5 finally coming out.
----------------------------------
The heat doesn't let up next year either with PS3 exclusives being... God of War 3, White Knight Chronicles, Heavy Rain : Origami Killer, Final Fantasy 14 Online, possibly ModNation Racers, Final Fantasy Versus 13, and Last Guardian.
---------------------------------
2011 we can look forward to Agent being designed by the same guys who made Grand Theft Auto the hit franchise it is today.
=========================
pair that up with... there are rumors of a price drop (lot of pressure and hints that it is coming). The PS3 is 3 years old and has dropped from $600 to $400. You can upgrade the harddrive on it.
The is free internet.
They Continue to spout they're promise of a 10 year support for the system.
revelations of a patent showing PS2 b/c will be returning to PS3 (hopefully to all systems not just the new models)
new PS3 slim rumors (they've done this with every system)
PS3 is gettin it's own motion controls - if that strikes your fancy.
Blu-Ray player (it won the format wars after all....), also plays DVD's, CD's, music you upload to it, and photos. can stream most movies right off of an external harddrive (which is what i get my multimedia use out of it).
We also have a strong strong third party support, and the quality of games are now up to par of what 360 gets. not often we see a game that is half-ass done for PS3. Modern Warfare 2, Bioshock 2, Final Fantasy 13, Dante's Inferno, etc. etc.
--------------------------
yeah. the PS3 may very well stay in third place this gen, but it will NOT be a sad and uneventful 3rd place. there is a lot to look forward to with PS3. Plus Sony hasn't really reached out and made deals with other companies yet like NetFlix, Facebook, Twitter and others (yeah you guys might not like it but i'd sure as hell love to have those things on PS3).
In addition, how do you think the PS3 slim will affect the future of the PS3? If there really is one coming out, I might look at getting that.dereknippl-ei would stick with the bigger one, the ps3 can grill sausages with the heat it produces, it actually get's way hotter than the 360, but it has a seriously effective cooling setup, it has one huge fan that extracts the air directly from the chip's,it's the cooling setup that makes it so big i have a feeling that a slimline ps3 would suffer the same kind of hardware failures as the 360, here check out this vid, you will see what i mean http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdB2qQPv7LI
the future of the PS3 looks great... some amazing exclusives are coming up between 2009 - 2010 (the ones we know about) + many other great multiplats.. As regards gamers who still havent got a PS3, I think they'll be happy should Sony announce another price-cut..
I do believe PS3 will get a price-cut later on this year and considering it has a great games library + its a blu-ray player and offers a good (free) online service it will surely attract new gamers..
Honestly I would go with a XBOX 360 over the PS3. I guess you could continue to wait for this bright future or better games, it just always seems like I am waiting with the PS3.
it's already pretty good if you can get yourself out of the hate-ps3 loop. it's got trophies now, there are already a full slate of exclusives out that are good. there are more varied games coming exclusive to PS3 then i see coming to Xbox 360. almost everything i see on 360 (and please don't get me wrong i also own one and i do like mine a lot as well) takes this much more conventional route. it never really breaks the barriers. there is nothing on the 360 quite like Heavy Rain, (Alan Wake resembles more of Resident Evil 4), there is nothing quite like what the Team ICO brings to PS3. the future of all three consoles is doing pretty good. and all three are doing great things. believe me, i was stuck in the hate-ps3 loop for a long time, even regretted owning a PS3 shortly after i finally bought it, but as time has gone on, i find myself more and more returning to playing my PS3. just stuck in the 360 RROD's, PS3 HAS NO GAMES, and Wii is for Kiddies and their grandma's, IS NOT TRUE ANYMORE. hasn't been for a while now.Honestly I would go with a XBOX 360 over the PS3. I guess you could continue to wait for this bright future or better games, it just always seems like I am waiting with the PS3.

its future is not bight at all, unless they decide to sell their consoles at a decent price.
people buy what's more convenient nowadays.
xbox 360 is more convenient and has nothing to envy to ps3.
oh and if you don't have a hd tv, be ready to buy one if you will buy the ps3, cause unlike the xbox 360, you can't hook it to your Pc-monitr.
i thought the ps3 could do VGA, wow you learn something new every dayits future is not bight at all, unless they decide to sell their consoles at a decent price.

Halo and Forza is all that is notable on the 360's future, regardless of what any Lemming will say. Toriko42
