umm, sony has a 10 yr life cycle on thier consoles so expect 10 yrs out of the ps3, also watch for a hint of a new system when the ps3 is 7 yrs old, no sooner. and ms is more likely to drop a new console due to there history of dropping the original xbox like a sack of wet taters.I hate to say it but, based on Sony's history, the PS4 could drop in 3 years. Whether or not that happens is a different story but for now, I'm going to say that that's the case. As for what will be different, I have no idea. I really don't want to think about it.

Well... at least I would like to think so. If not in popularity, than at least in player scale! when your smallest match is 32 vs 32, you know you got a big game on your hands.
I was in the beta since August, and it really is a GREAT game. ESPECIALLY if you get a group of friends/people you play well with. Coordinating attacks it's really something to behold.
If you haven't yet, I suggest you download the open beta right now! then update it (the update can take a while) and try it out tomorrow! Servers come up tomorrow (the 4th) at 5am PST (8am EST) and will be on 24/7 untill midnight on the 10th! don't miss your chance to miss this years biggest FPS!
Wow.. that reads like a commercial, LOL. but really, I mean, What other console FPS has more than 100 players on one map without divulging into chaos?

More players =/= good game
Honestly....and from what i see among the SW posters....its getting negative reception here..
well, its better now then when i started with the first round of beta testing. let me tell you that lol.. its a decent game. i love the scale of the battles. overall its a pretty good online game.BELIEVE IT !!!!

Uncharted 2 isnt as good as gears of war 2.

i like pizza, you might not
i think uncharted 2 is amasing, you might not.
see that? its a opinion.
i've played both UC2 and GeOW2. i personally think uncharted 2 is better.
yes and no. i want a game that looks real when i play it on my 50" plasma not some 8bit lookin game that has the best gameplay ever. gameplay is important but so are graphicsIsn't gameplay far more important?

[QUOTE="Nerkcon"][QUOTE="gago-gago"]Sony are considering not even using it next gen, so I don't know if that's good or bad.gago-gagoLink please? The last thing I've read was that they're still going use it, and everything else, that they were not going to upgrade or change at all or barely for next gen. They may use it they may not use it, the fact they still consider not even using is a good thing or bad thing. http://ps3.ign.com/articles/105/1057525p1.html well, imo i think they will keep some designs for it, but make it more traditional so its easier for devs to make games for (and less expensive) due to the slack they have been taking this gen.
It is indeed powerful BUT
1) Which game till now , needs 7 cores to work with? NONE 4 are far enough!! with a 10 yr life cycle, they made it future proof
2) What to do this 8 core CPU when you got 512 MB RAM TO WORK WITH?!! you dont need alot of ram if its fast enough.
3) What to do this 8 core CPU when you got outdated GPU , less powerful than X360s the cell can do graphical "stuffs" just like a GPU. balancing things out and making it better
4) What to do this 8 core CPU when whole architecture is bad and makes developers focus on X360 as their lead platform plus making cheap ports over PS3 ( bayonetta anyone? ) when you port from the 360 it doesnt take advantage of what the ps3 can do, basically the ps3 is just doing what the 360 does, only worse in some cases since its not designed to work the same was as the 360. when you start on the ps3 first games tend to do better in general for both systems. (had to underline that due to some fanboys will blow it up more then it is)
AND FINALLY WHY us , customers , we have to pay/already paid more $$ for this ...super duper CPU when we wont need 8 CORES for gaming till 2012-13 for sure!! Isnt that when PS4 will come.... So all in all... CELL is good but .... OVERALL PS3 didnt deliver what supposed to... AND thats WAY better graphics and overall gaming quality titles over competition.. Period. finally, the ps3 didn't deliver? it has a 10 yr life cycle for pete sake... what are we in its 3rd? there is no way you can say the ps3 or anyother console this generation hasn't delivered...... last and not least i hope they dont come out with another console in 2012/13 you people are way to anxious...

lol, i actually logged in to post to you. feel special!!!!!!
And MGS4's scale is much larger than Uncharted's. I don't know about you, but I'm tired of corridor level design. So i'm at a loss for why you'd want one of your favorite devs to continue to working with an outdated machine for 5 to 6 more years.[QUOTE="Rikusaki"]
[QUOTE="da_illest101"] Well, let them disagree all they want because Uncharted 2 is the most beautiful console game out there at the moment.Salt_The_Fries
Co-signed. PS3 is already outdated, and boasting on about how it will unleash some extra hidden power just flat out flatters me (pun intended). It's not like we'll see Crysis of the exact scope from PC version with competent details anyway.
you could build a pc from scratch with all the latest and greatest components, and as soon as you complete it, its going to be outdated before you even start it up. amazing how fast technology changes... back to the topic, 5 -6 years seems right since sony gives a 10 yr life span promise deal thingtwice? 360 = 35 mill ps3 = 30 mill thats not twice the userbase lol[QUOTE="guardofdead"][QUOTE="ActicEdge"]
Probably. It has twice the userbase after all.

He said in NA
PS3 = 10 mils
