On Demand gaming is a long way to go!!!

And as for the TC, keep dreaming, this is the worst idea I have ever read especially that it will eat up your HDD space. Not to mention that you also have to download it and the PSN is very slow and you can't even play games while downloading!!!

FireEmblem_Man

read all the posts dude, you can delete stuff and download it again later or i can slap on any HDD through usb 2.0 or the normal way, and multitasking is being added through firmware, 360 didnt get it right off the bat it barely got it last summer. http://www.videogamesblogger.com/2006/12/19/ps3-launch-in-europe-on-either-march-2-3-or-9-march-firmware-update-features-listed-ps3-hdip-camera-due-march-tivo-service-coming-q3-2007.htm

Yeah you can delete it and download it again, but what are the chances that the fact that the PSN is STILL Slow and it would take a full day for a complete download!!!

its slow now but i read somewhere they are updating the servers and the ones they had now were just stand-ins, and it should happen sooner than later since sony just posted record profits for january, and they are launching in europe so they need more/ and new servers for the exra congestion coming in. and background downloading is being updated, so it wont be that much of a problem.

I'm with you here.  It sounds like a great idea to delete and reload a game that would probably take hours!  I mean, a multi-gig game is not going to download quickly.  Besides, does the PS3 still have where you can't do anything while downloading, or was that fixed?  Cause that would suck to sit there and stare at a saving screen for hours.

Is this actually a good thing? Besides, they said lead the way in "downloadable games". I would take a game in disc format over downloadable anyday.... Besides, I hear nothing about it matching XBL's superior service. Now go look for something actually interesting to talk about.Voryn_Dagoth

Ownage approved anyway what playstations track recored on online gaming (not to great compared to xbl) it just wont keep up EVER the xbox/360 were built with online gaming in mind

PSN just can't beat XBL or the Wii's online, from what I've seen. It doesn't even compare, really.

Warhawk is so good that they decided to make it PSN exclusive!!!

Less backwards compatability rocks because we are looking towards the future!!!

I have cut my arm off but really its better for me that way because now I only need one glove!!!

[QUOTE="Me-Ur-Daddy"]"from my vantage point, having spoken to lots of folks in the development community working on this stuff, there's a lot of reason to get really excited about downloadable content on PSN this year -- we're at the point where the downloadable games are finally being taken just as seriously as the packaged ones." "while I believe I have a good sense of a lot of what he'll be talking about, there's something apparently pretty substantial that I don't know of yet. Something different and/or unexpected...but something that will give you a better picture into the future of PS3. Reactions from those in the know range from "it's major" to "it's...interesting" -- so I'm not sure what to think just yet. But I'll say this, I'm intrigued." http://www.1up.com/do/blogEntry?bId=7894167&publicUserId=4561231 very mysterious...

Do the math cow...if Sony says a 40+GB media disk is needed for games, and you have the 20 gig version, what happens?

Rofl Sony is soo stupid...

They say that games will use the full capacity of Blu-Ray, yet they are letting people download games on a 60 gig hard drive? What am I suppose to do? Delete 60 dollar games that I paid for, for more space in my hard drive?

I thought Blu-Ray games were going to have over 25 gigs easily.

[QUOTE="Me-Ur-Daddy"]

...according to 1up, its an article about warhawk goin psn which is awesome IMO...

"It's interesting, because I know a lot of people's perception of the game will change once they hear it's downloadable over PSN as opposed to being a full retail game. It shouldn't. I believe this could actually become a great demonstration of what Sony has in store for us with downloadable games.Mark my words: While Sony definitely needs to catch up with Microsoft in a lot of respects when it comes to online, they are going to lead the way when it comes to downloadable games this year."

"but there's so much that Sony hasn't shown or talked about yet -- stuff that will really surprise people. Just about every major Sony developer has a PSN game in development right now (in fact, Warhawk isn't the only "major" Sony franchise that'll have a new title on PSN this year -- you'll find out more on that one soon)."

"A bunch of third parties also have some "substantial" (as in, not ports of older games) PSN stuff in the works that will really surprise people once they hear about them."

SAGE_OF_FIRE
So you would rather take up huge amounts of space in ur hardrive and wait several hours for it to download, then just buy it?



Generally you can begin downloading a new game a few days before it comes out for retail.

PSN makes XBL look lieek dos, yor can do things that you can on xbox like talk to people AND talk to frends, lol the flopbox doesnt even have lunixlove-all-system
That isn't even English. Why the hell would 360 need Linux, its a game console. How does PSN make XBL look like a command line operated system? It has a User Interface! Also saying that PSN makes XBL look like DOS but it lacks Linux when about half the tasks you want to do in Linux will require you to use the terminal makes you look stupid IMO.

yes its a good thing, saves money and better quality DL games is awesome, i would take warhawk over 15 year old doom anyday. and what superior service all those extras that you dont need that make you feel happy about giving MS 250 million a year and have hardly anything to show for it ? theres no lag on pc or ps3 and they are both free and thats the whole point of gaming, 360 doesnt even have mods which are the second most important thing i dont care about video chatting to some german guy who cant even understand me. and most of these features are coming to psn already for free anyways... http://www.videogamesblogger.com/2006/12/19/ps3-launch-in-europe-on-either-march-2-3-or-9-march-firmware-update-features-listed-ps3-hdip-camera-due-march-tivo-service-coming-q3-2007.htm


Saves what money? :lol: And you think the quality will be better because it's downloaded :lol: LMAO, this is rich! :lol: Wow, and with that thing underlined.....I don't need to choose, if I want a game, I buy the disc, and I get arcade games as a bonus :? Warhawk is not an arcade game, I would prefer it on disc. Besides, with all you cows claiming teh PS3 games are 22 GBS!!, etc. :lol: We'll see how much of your HDD will be left when sony releases more games like this and most games use GB's of the HDD to make the loading bearable (Oblivion uses 5GB's). Do you still think downloading full-blown games is good? Hell no, they will make you buy an extra HDD in no time for what I could get on a disc.......

did you read up kid ? space is not a problem cant you just delete it and download it over again later ? and my friend has a 250 gig HDD slapped on his ps3 and got it for cheap, 60 gigs is big enough but anyone can easily buy a decent forbidden you have been owned courtesy of ur daddy ;)

And you want your games to be ONLY multiplayer with no cutscenes.....um, you must be in denial. And trust me, I would rather have an arcade forbidden>

And I can use XNA creator to make my own games, and people can do that too.... :? But that is something I don't give a crap about. I want to buy games, not make my own (by the time I make a game I wouldn't want to play it). I want quality games on DISCS, and not some stripped down online game, that will take up too much darn space. Why would this be a good thing? I also want the option to sell my game if I don't need it anymore.

[QUOTE="gnutux"]I still see no point in downloading the game straight to disc, I'd rather go to the store and buy the game in a optical disc instead of HDD. I'd rather use that HDD space for music, photos and etc instead of games. Plus, currently, the market doesn't have anything for that yet, no one really wants or need it yet. Just like how a built-in BD-ROM is useless right now, IMHO. gnutux

Thank you too :D That's what I am saying why should I pay extra money to fill my HDD with stripped down games. I would rather get a little arcade game on my console, and buy real games on discs in stores (or on ebay for cheaper), than get it for slightly less of more expensive on PSN, than get it stripped down to make a reasonable size on the HDD. No, TC. This is one of the dumbest ideas I have ever heard of, and will make the PSN look worse than XBL.....Look at my 360, I still have about 8GBs let, and I have lots of saves, music, arcade games, tv shows, and demos on it. And I am not really looking for a new HDD size. But at this rate the PS3's HDD will be full in no time.

PSN isn't getting TIVO it's getting downloadable movies like Xbox 360 has now (eventually is the key word here for that even). 360 is adding IPTV ,which is something totaly different than movie download, it will be streaming video. On top of that I already use my 360 as a PVR with media extender.  Something sony promised but never delivered on was PVR functionality at E3 05 (kind of like the dual hdmi, 7 wirless controllers, all 802.11 wireless, dual gigabit ethernet, etc.)
