[QUOTE="SolidSnake35"][QUOTE="CarlosPontinas"][QUOTE="SolidSnake35"]You could ask similar questions to owners of every console going...CarlosPontinas

You can't be blamed for buying into the hype, but a person looking forvalue would do some research to find out which console has the best value.

I have a 360 to fall back on, but I doubt the PS3 will be completely useless regardless of what happens. I really don't want to have to buy that HDDVD addon.

This is what I mean. You won't be falling back on the 360 because it is a much better games console than the PS3. You also don't need a BR player for gaming. Your perceptions are based upon empty hype. Luckily you're in a position to benefit because you'll be able to see what I mean. Most cows won't.

You should tell everyone how you work in the gaming industry again.

:D Let me do it. "Guys. I'm important. I know what I'm talking about. I work in the gaming industry. Love me."

It's incredible how comments mutate from one thing into something totally different in less than 24 hours.

Almost equally incredible that you speak of the PS3's architecture when you lack the credentials to do so. Where did you receive your B.S. in Computer Science or Electrical Engineering?

I could say the same thing about the $3000 laptop I have my eye on. Why not buy it 4 years later when it will be under $1000? Because I want it now.asmallchild
True. But then again, there are a lot more games available for the PC than the PS3.

The cows usual response to claims that the PS3 has no good games is that the good games are on their way ("buh buh buh... t3h p0tential" anyone?). My question is, if the good games aren't here yet, why did you drop $600 now instead of waiting for the good games and probably a price drop?bloodychimp
Same reason why people drop money on any system at launch. Some like having the latest and greatest things right when they're available. Others may have bought into the hype. People have their reasons.

Like I said. Where I come from we're taught how to read in kindergarten.

How I HAVE DEVELOPED becomes I WORK IN is beyond my comprehension.

Maybe cows have trouble with basic language.

Or maybe some people clearly saw through your uneducated rant.

The main reason I'm getting one is the HD movies. I'll be playing games but HD movies are beautiful.

Your puerile reaction to my earlier comment begs to differ.

Now... cows? Are you still  there?

Don't make this personal.

It's called System Wars.

And FYI I have developed characters and environments for several games studios. This sentence deals with events IN THE PAST. Ok? So next time please be careful when you attempt to paraphrase.

I have RFOM, VF5, F1, Motorstorm, GTHD and Ridge Racer. That's 6 very solid PS3 exclusives (at least for the next 5 months) I also have 12 Bluray movies and tomorrow I will add the awesome Casino Royale. After being on the market for 4 months, I'd say there are enough reasons to own one. Maybe not enough for someone with specific tastes or not looking for a HD movie player to drop 600 bucks, but there are reasons to own a PS3 right now. michaelareb0001

Yep!

Ask sheep and lemmings that bought early the same question , you will probably get the same answers.

Nike_Air


Wii = Zelda, Trauma Center, Wii Sports. I brand new way to play that has never been done before and I can play it with anyone even people that aren't into games.

360 = DOA4, PDO, Condemned, PGR3, Kameo, CoD2. Those games are still better then the games PS3 has out right now and they were availbe day 1.

All PS3 gives me right now is RFOM and a lot of inferior multiplatfrom ports of 360 games.

Sheep say the same thing about Wiis graphics.

It's just the truth, all good things are worth waiting for. So what?

[QUOTE="Unforgiven2870"][QUOTE="bloodychimp"][QUOTE="Unforgiven2870"][QUOTE="bloodychimp"][QUOTE="asmallchild"][QUOTE="bloodychimp"][QUOTE="asmallchild"]I could say the same thing about the $3000 laptop I have my eye on. Why not buy it 4 years later when it will be under $1000? Because I want it now.



Because in 4 years that laptop will suck. In a year the PS3 will be better than it is now.

My crystal ball reveals that the PS3 in my hands and the PS3 that I will be picking up in one year are indeed, the same device.



Yeah but your not buying the PS3 for the device. You buy it for the games. So the device will be more useful in a year. The laptop you are buying for the device.

Wtf??? Ok PS3 for the device.i'd rather watch movies on that thing then to buy A stand alone 1,000 blu ray player and plus with the surround sound i like the fact i can play music on it as well.See chimp the argument can go both ways.As for laptops you can do just as much as the PS3 but will cost you alot more.The PS3 in the next few years will still be running won't need to worry about spending money for upgradeable parts but you will still have free software updates.You give a Laptop 4 years and u will need to bring it into a PC shop to buy the latest parts in upgrades and buy new software just to keep up with the technology.



Are you seriously trying to argue that the PS3 has as much functionality as a laptop? Honestly, how many PS3 users are actually going to put Yellow Dog on their system?

Anyone out there want to actually explain this to him?Because he's young and has a lost soul that needs to find his way. Lets try this since you don't understand technological comparison's i'll make it easier for you. PS3,I can watch movies listen to music and playgames and have Online.I can have this for 5 years and get free software upgrades without getting replacement parts.600$ for all this. Laptops = all that and can do Much more but.in 5 years you will have to go out and get new parts for your laptop and buy new software. ^Over a grand just to have spending money to upgrade parts over time,will cost you as much as you bought the laptop for.



I know you love technology and all but what about games? I thought we bought systems for games?

i did mention games lol.But he was refering to buying the system or systems for a selective reasons. IE *i bought a PS3,because of a 60 gb HD* or *I bought a wii because i can kill robbers with my nunchuck controller* and last but not least *I bought an Xbox 360,because i can play gears of war* but i was just stating that not everyone buys these things just for those reasons.People buy these things for their own personal wealth of being entertained.Of course people can agree that its mainly for the Games.Even though there are people who do consider systems cheap video and music players as well and so there will be people who buy it for that reason and may not even buy a video game.

First off, it is actually better that the games are not out than if the games were out. The PS3 has two great games right now Resistance and Motorstorm. If there were lets say 10 good games out i would never be able to afford all 10 of those games so I would be missing out. Why not just buy the console early and buy the games when they are released because you actually have the money as opposed to spending $600 and then another $600 on the 10 good games and not even be able to get enjoyment out of them because it is to many games to be playing at one time. Second, the price wont drop for a long long time and there are so many games in 2007 that I want.
