Which console launched with no unified friends list? Which console launched with the hardware for scaling, but no software for it? Which console launched with an HTML website for an online store? Which console launched with no clear idea of how downloadable content for games would be delivered (e.g. Oblivion)? Which console launched with a controller that would get upgraded within months? Which console launched with a marketing campaign claiming that it's the only "true HD console," yet comes with no HD cables? Which console launched with the inability to externally switch between HD and SD output? (e.g. if you don't have an SDTV, but you take your PS3 to a friend's house who does have one, it's a pain to switch back to SD output, not like the 360) The 360 may be behind technologically, but at least it provided a complete, seamless gaming experience AT LAUNCH, and all that extra technological flash hasn't helped the PS3 retain or release games to justify both its price AND its delay. The PS3 was delayed for six months, and it's STILL not complete. It's not even a matter of BluRay or the Cell; these are BASIC features that should have been available at launch.

 I never understood that either. You are selling me a console capable of 1080p and it has a Blu-Ray Player included, yet they can't throw you a $10 HDMI cable.

Yet the gaming experience will not change with the new 360. So you'll be able to download more stuff. Wow. Great. How does that change gaming? Lack of scaling changes gaming. Lack of unified friends list changes gaming. Lack of downloadable content (at least for Oblivion) changes gaming. Lack of rumble changes gaming. Lack of HD cables changes gaming. How does a bigger hard drive change gaming, hm? Here. *hands cow a knife* I prefer rib-eye steaks.

Oh yeah, keep bringing up the Elite 360. Never mind that all it is is a hard drive upgrade and some black spray paint. Meanwhile, revel in your LACK OF BASIC FEATURES.

SO in theory all these points about the 360 coming out early mean that the PS3 should in theory have come out in 2012 :|

That's poor manufacturing, not poor design. If MS simply changes their contractor, that problem is solved. The PS3 is incomplete from a design standpoint.

I think the main reason for people calling the 360 rushed is in the hardware department, not the software one. But some of the points you added seem kind of, well you're trying a little to hard with a few. I mean, switching between HD and SD. Is it really that hard to hold a button down for 5 seconds? Have we become that lazy?

It's an annoyance that should not exist, although yes, I admit, I was stretching with that one. That's why it's last, and why it needed a clarification. I almost added the requirement that synching requires wiring up your controller to the PS3. Either way, these still add to the incompleteness of the console.

(cough) BS (cough) BS (cough) Oh man I really have a nasty cough. Coming from a mad cow like you who has been crying all afternoon about how MS needs to get its own games and stop taking Sonys or how MS only has games because they take them from Sony its hard to believe you.

If M$ and Nintendo were willing to take the same loss that Sony is taking with the PS3. Nintendo would pay you $50 to have a Wii and the 360 would cost $100. The PS3 is way better value then these consoles.JimmyT2

 I mean you have 0% credibility as it stands right now.

Again, poor manufacturing. I don't deny this (and neither does Microsoft). And mine hasn't had any problems at all since I bought it in July.

    I am no fakeboy, if you were implying me. I love the 360, but I had one at launch that never turned on, and their replacement unit died after a year. MS was great at handling the returns, but I have indeed had one system that never turned on, and one that died.

Some tv's come with em for free. Like my Samsung. In the manual it told me that it should come with all these cables such as HDMI etc...the thing is, it didn't. So I went to Best Buy and they gave me a free hdmi cable.

I find it funny that lemmings are making a big deal over miniscule things. At least at launch the PS3 worked and didnt overheat/melt/scratch discs/crashed HDD's etc. Plus at least the PS3 has GOOD backwards compatibility, while there are almost zero games for the 360 that are backwards compatible, nice way to drop the ball there M$.

    For the last time, that is a rumor. Same one since January with the same "proof". Until you give me something besides photos from January of dev kits, I will not believe it.

I don't know what you mean by this, wasn't that the X360 with its "ANA" upscaling chip that was inactive until OCT 2006 (at least in Europe), through an update.

The 360's scaling chip was always active. It could scale actively between 480p, 720p, and 1080i. The only thing that was activated was 1080p scaling.

i don't care if you're right, this post is annoying. I can imagine a really annoying geektard getting real emotional why saying all this crap.

Right, and you're much better. Come off your high horse. I don't think anyone on these forums takes these things seriously, and you judging people for indulging in some of the luxuries the anonymity of the internet provides is hypocritical at best.

Oh ok, didn't realise, I thought it was used to just upscale 720p or 1080i to 1080p.

I had no idea you worked for Microsoft and was a part of the Zephyr design team. It's amazing how you have all the internal hardware plans already. Great job with leaking the inside info!

The PS3 was delayed for six months, and it's STILL not complete. It's not even a matter of BluRay or the Cell; these are BASIC features that should have been available at launch.magus-21

 

i don't care if you're right, this post is annoying. I can imagine a really annoying geektard getting real emotional why saying all this crap.

Right, and you're much better. Come off your high horse. I don't think anyone on these forums takes these things seriously, and you judging people for indulging in some of the luxuries the anonymity of the internet provides is hypocritical at best.

 

What i find strange about a lot of 360 fanboys on these forums is how much effort they put into rubbishing the ps3; completely ignoring the infancy of the console. If the 360 is such an amazing system why spend so much time in here arguing. 

posts like the TC's are full of smugness and that's not cool at all. Why waste time with obnoxious threads. Why not start up a debate instead of an argument?

[QUOTE="2largeadults"][QUOTE="magus-21"][QUOTE="2largeadults"][QUOTE="magus-21"][QUOTE="2largeadults"]Which console needed a remake after just two years? Oh yeah.

Oh yeah, keep bringing up the Elite 360. Never mind that all it is is a hard drive upgrade and some black spray paint. Meanwhile, revel in your LACK OF BASIC FEATURES.

I guess the enhanced cooling system to eliminate all those reliability woes don't indicate a rush job either. Good going. Dismissed.

It's not an enhanced cooling system, chuckles. It's a 65nm process that OMG the PS3 is going to have, too.

I had no idea you worked for Microsoft and was a part of the Zephyr design team. It's amazing how you have all the internal hardware plans already. Great job with leaking the inside info!

Ahhhh, typical bovine hypocrisy. Mock me if you want, but what makes your assumption that it's an "enhanced cooling system" any better? Especially since I based mine on an actual MS announcement that they would be switching to a cooler 65nm process?

They're jealous. Why else would they come here and trash talk instead of playing their "beloved" system? MMMMMM Jealousy.

really last time i checked, That was rumor and what you dont think sony isn't working hard on a redesign? Sony is the KING Of redesign, In the ps2 gen alone that system had what 7 revisions? all culminating to the slimline.

More like 14 revisions, actually.

lol yeah and i remember the ps1 and its 20 revisions...


@Filonus: you must be new, Before the mass cow ownage days cows worked just as hard to  rubbish the xbox, and the up and comming 360.

wich console launched without HDMI? with a small HD or with none at all?  wich console launched with 100% backwards compatibility, and in the european launch they had already more than 1500 games emulated? and wich console gives everyone the 3RD of death, and had the biggest loads of bugs in it's early months in all game's history?

That's poor manufacturing, not poor design. If MS simply changes their contractor, that problem is solved. The PS3 is incomplete from a design standpoint.

How about the disc scratching feature the 360 has?If thats not bad design I dont know what is.

I was comparing the PS3 at launch to the 360 at launch. How else did you want me to compare a console's incompletion at launch?
If the 360 is such an amazing system why spend so much time in here arguing.Filonus
Because I don't play games 24/7.

I find smugness perfectly justified when facing complete ignorance.

One flaw that arises from idiots moving their 360 while it's operating. I'd say that lack of common sense is more to blame than anything else. This is an accidental flaw, but Sony released the PS3 KNOWING it was incomplete, KNOWING that they would release juryrigged fixes for the friends list, for scaling, etc.
