Sony PS3....

Did Sony get their inspiration to develop the PS3 from a pile of s***?

First off they force us to have Blu-Ray, which isn't really used as all 360 games have been made on a DVD and still support HD visuals and massive amount of content. Okay the PS3 can play Blu-Ray movies but why not just make an attachment like the 360 so instead of being forced to pay extra for a technology that may not even be around for very long we get a choice.

Not only that not many people own a HDTV so how many people actually own one that is capable of 1080p output? again they should have left out the Blu-Ray player for that very reason. Not only that if Blu-Ray technology does provail then better stand-a-lone players will be more affordable

Second the european PS3 is somewhat limited in its backwards compatibility so I also feel I'm getting ripped off there too! Not only that Sony stick some lame ass motion sensing on the controller to try and counter Nintendo's motion sensing on the Wii.

Third, many so called playstation exclusives have gone Multiplatform so why should I pay more for a console that is barely better than the much cheaper 360 and getting identical games apart from the odd sony published title? Sorry but the benefits of owning a PS3 are very limited in comparison to the competition at the moment.

Maybe once a price drop happens and Blu-Ray becomes the format of choice and also better games become available this could change. There is potential but the early signs are very bleak for the PS3.

Like I said, People without HDTV's (which is a lot) and not only that you need a TV that can display in 1080p to get the most out of it. Plus it isn't even known just how long Blu-Ray could be about because of the Blu-Ray/HD-DVD war. So yes if Blu-Ray wins and PS3 drops down in price it could be seen as a good way of getting a cheap Blu-Ray player but right now its not. Plus the stand-a-lone Blu-Ray players are always going to get better and better and cheaper and cheaper.

Another one of these Threads?..

There is so much bias, there is no point in posting.

*Uuuuugh.*

Actually, the PS2 was much, Much closer to the Sega Saturn, and it turned out to be the World's #1 Console.

Time to go back to. *ahem*, l'ecole or if you prefer, La Escuela.

I think the PS3 was a great idea. I want a high end game console that also offers the greatest possibilities in the future. The PS3 is future-proof, and that is worth $600.BioShockOwnz

What happens if Blu-Ray fails? the 360 gives me a choice I can either own a HD-DVD player or just experience great HD visuals with my games. Sony have said you most pay extra for a blu-ray player but we are not sure how long this is going to be around and we don't care whether you can get the most out of it. I still fail to see how the PS3 is future proof and the 360 isn't?

Blu-ray 50 GB for games >>>>> DVD9 9GB for games. YOU LOSE Nteks

You do realise game companies have set budgets.... Plus there is nothing wrong with having a two disk game if it is needed

I myself find it really difficult to play my 360 on a SDTV; could hardly read the menus before I got my Bravia. Now, with an HDTV, I'm really looking forward to HD movie playback. Moreover, remember that we're only one year into a generation that will live for another 5-6. You will see much prettier games later on in the life cycle, and they may (or may not) require more disc space.

DVD is a failing format? Last I checked it's still the standard format.

Again, don't care. And whenever that FCC regulation does go into effect, my cable company will just give me a converter.

Xbox 360 has much more General Purpose CPU power than the Playstation 3. IGN has said many times that the tri-core CPU design of the Xbox 360 is much more flexible and developer friendly than the Playstation 3's very outdated parallell processing design that is very difficult to work with, just like the Sega Saturn, which used a similar design. Playstation 3 can perform more Floating Point math calculations than the Xbox 360; however, it's important to remember that Floating Point math calculations are primarily used in things like spreadsheets; they are not optimized to work with videogame graphics and sound like the Xbox 360 customized hardware is.

Again, don't care. And whenever that FCC regulation does go into effect, my cable company will just give me a converter.
