ps3-s only salvation:

[QUOTE="Dualshockin"]Let's see how well the Wii will be selling this time next year,I believe all Mario games will be out,Metroid,as well as Zelda. GT5,is what will reconfirm the fact that Sony are without a doubt the most powerful and competitive videogame company to date.dhjohns

:lol: Given up on MGS already?

Whydo you wantto turn the most powerful nex gensystem into another Wii ?

I just dont get it , Are you afraid of it's potential ?

[QUOTE="Dualshokin"]By 2009,HD will be the dominant format across the board,HD movies,HD televisions,HD gaming,you name it.Now ask yourself:How many years will the Ps3 have left in it's life by then?Many.Dualshockin

And yet, by this time, it will be horribly outdated, hardware wise, by the PC.

The Wii and the 360 will also be outdated, but they DON'T have a 10 year plan. The PC IS in competition with the PS£, as long as the console produces games.

The potential will be released when? 2009, or 2010? By 2012 we'll probably be ready for the next set of consoles, THAT'S when the true HD era will begin. The PS3 isn't suited for today's audience. It's a machine of the future, that belongs in the future. Sony made a mistake. They will take some major loses for it too.

Sony SAYS the PS3 has a 10 year plan. Who do they think they're kidding. When Microsoft and Nintendo release thier systems in 6 or 7 years, they will have consoles that is even more advanced than that of the PS3. What will Sony do? Stay back just to stay true to thier word? Yeah right.

Sony said the PS3 is futureproof, but then again, Sony says a lot of stuff.

You're right, but I feel PS3's support nearer the end of this 10 years will be simmilar to that of the PS2 support now.

[QUOTE="Dualshockin"][QUOTE="TripleXAlexXx"]Blu-Ray wouldn't be the engine. Blu-ray would be the gas tank. I'd rather stop for gas after driving for several hours than have a gas tank that's bigger than the actual size of the car. It's simply not needed, nor does it really help. A gas tank that big slows the car down, too.Dualshockin

Ehh... as long as the good games come, and I have an awesome overall gaming experience with the ps3, i don't care what they do, what they use, or what they change, because it'll be worth it. I just hope it happens that way.

BTW: I downloaded this months firmware update this morning, but I didn't notice anything different. Do you know what the changes were?

Yeah there was an update. I got the one in may, but this morning Ibooted up my console and it said a new system update was available. I downloaded it, but I don't notice anything different at all.... Maybe it was for the people in the Home beta? Or just some slight changes.

But anyways... I'm not looking forward to sigma too much... I played the demo, and while it's a great game, it's also the same game i played through 2 and a half time. I still like it, but i'm not pshyched or anything. I'm really looking forward to Uncharted. I have faith that the game will deliver, especially after the videos. There are some others I'm looking forward to as well.

I just wish Sony would get a move on. I know it has potential, and the material is coming, but I don't want to wait! Do you? That's my only real complaint.

If theres no blu-ray drive, how do you expect it to play the games which are on BD?!insomnia37

Pixie dust.

price cut. big one.

a) redesign the system

PS3 V2 ( for the oppressed masses)

1) Full Backward Compatibility (PS2)

2) SAME CELL. SAME RSX. SLIMER.

3) NO BLURAY DRIVE. NO HDD.

4) 2GB FLASH BASED STORAGE (CACHING / SAVING)

5) Standard DVD DRIVE.

6) VGA / DVI / S-VIDEO OUT

7) retail price: $299

b) redesign the Philosophy

out of the box next gen experience (ditch the hd gaming nonsense)

800 x 600 + 2XAA mandatory for all games

looks good on LDTV

looks good on HDTV

makes the system a viable option

fanboy tears T__T

BUT WHAT ABOUT BLU RAY?!!!

-keep the current mess / for the hardcore cinefile "elite"

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE 50GB GAMES?!!!

- SPOUT BS ABOUT A NEW / REVOLUTIONARY / PATENTED / NEVER BEFORE SEEN / DATA -TEXTURE COMPRESSION ALGORITHM

DEVELOPED BY SNY FOR "THE CELL" THAT ONLY WORKS FOR DECOMPRESSING GAMES AND GET THIS. NOT MOVIES.

Sony does this and it has a chance ( not againt the wii, 2 late)
