Yeah!, i'll tell you what those bastards did to me and my precious collection of games!

I ahd a very interesting collection of games, SNES, GENESIS,MASTER SYSTEM,SEGA CD/32 X and a lot of games for each one... then it happened... i traded them ALL for credit so i could get one of those PS1 that played cd's and played videogames with 3d graphics way better than my 32X could possibly ever could!... so i got their PS1 and then it happened... IT BROKE!!! it wouldn't play games properlly and the FMV's were popping and stuff!!!... when i called SONY they told me to go screw myself Literally!!!

 

Well i traded that PS1 for a Sega Saturn that i still own today and i learned two things:

1- never trade your games over for anything in the world.

2- hate Sony... well you can't blame me they started everything!

 

What do you think?

Well looks like my topic called "PS3 the best option" was locked. I though i had the perfect chance to talk about how great the PS3 is but somehow people misunderstood me!...

Well it's time for me to try again and understand the SUPREMACY of the PS3 in your own words!...

I think people get mad at my sig but if you analise it it's the raw truth BUT this is a PS3 place so we will only dicuss how delightful is to have a PS3 specially now that SONY has promised us so many things to come.

PLEASE, PLEASE understand that i just want to know PEACEFULLY what are your thoughts about the good ol' PS3 that's all.

Note: if you get offended about the sig thing just let me know and i will gladly take it of for you, thank you!

Yeah... why getting another console when you have everything with the PS3?

 

Palstation 3...... $600.00

HDMI cable......(the only way to watch Blueray DVD's) $59.99 (bestbuy.com)

HDMI ready HDTV .............(the only way to watch Blue Ray DVD's) $1,000.00

usb headset ..... (used only if you like to talk your strategies with your teammates, otherwise... be mute?) $29.99 (gamestop.com)

Bluray Remote controller (well your busted!)...... $24.99

At least one game......... (insert name here) $59.99

 

So far you only pay for this Unbeatable gaming system $ 1,774.96... well, who said "you get what you pay for" was righty all right :wink.

 

Other things to look for a little extra cash:

extra controller .... $49.99

more games... $59.99 ea.

ps3/ps2 controller adapter...$14.99

ps3/ps2 memory card adapter..... $14.99

battery back up (you don't want your precious powerhouse to suffer from unstable energy ups & downs)...79.99.

 

And so on, BUT you wealthy folks can afford everything your mommies and daddies can aren't you?

LONG LIVE KEN KUTARAGI... ( well he's gonna get his job back soon you'll see! )

I own both. I'll number my points so you can choose which one to disagree with.

1. With the Wii, you need to have the sensor bar positioned perfectly. If it's bumped into, your motions register completely differently. There is no sensor bar for the PS3.

2. This is somewhat of a continuation of my first point. In my apartment, I can't sit on my couch and actually use the motion controls. While playing Super Paper Mario, I can't actually point at the screen with any accuracy unless I stand up.

I have no problem standing up to play Wii sports, but having to stand to play Super Paper Mario is just silly.

This is true with any game that involves pointing.

3. Pointing is only estimated on the Wii. I can't point at the screen exactly on what I want to click on. The light gun on my NES was more accurate at aiming where I point.

Granted, the PS3 doesn't have the ability to point, but I'd rather that than everyone pretend they're happy with the Wii providing less accurate controls that advertised.

4. So far I've been talking about the weakness of the Wii's motion controls, but haven't talked about the PS3's.

Currently, the PS3 uses the motion controls like a tasty spice. You play Resistance like your typical game until you're grabbed. You then quickly shake the monster off with your controller. It adds more control. In other cases like Motorstorm, the player has the option to use motion control or standard controls.

The Wii doesn't give you options. It takes what makes a great spice and often serves it as the main dish. Players aren't given the option. Why not let people play Excite Truck with the classic controller? Is Nintendo too afraid that if some people realize prefer the standard controls they'll realize the main selling point of the system was a wash?

Yeah this things you mentioned about the wiimote happens when people are too close to the sensor (you should be at least 3 feet away from the sensor) or haven't noticed there's an option to adjust the wiimote to the sensor.

 

Both my wiimotes work FLAWLESSLY while playing my games, specially WiiPlay's "Duck Hunt".

You don't need to browse system wars to hear people bashing Sony for their lackluster sequel to the Playstation 2, and in all probability it will fail, as is being universally accepted among the large majority of media outlets.

But despite this doom and gloom which may result in an unsupported system, who is still going to invest in a Playstation 3?

even as i say this: 360 is most likely technically more powerful.

i say this: people who use computers, as you've gotten new computers, has windows really gotten any faster?

it doesn't matter if the hard ware is excellent if the software is crap.

just judging from windows to xbox360 os, theyre bothe so friggin slow, no matter how fast the processor is.

an example. my neighbor has an 800 mhhz 17" widescreen imac. with osx.256 megs ram and a 40 gig hard drive

i have a 2.0 ghz dual core amd athalon 64 3800 windows with 2 gigs of ram and a 300 gig hard drive

they both run at about the same speed doing basic stuff.

 

This guy here is a freaking genius!!!... you should be hired by Gamespot!, this comparison is so reliable! i will not buy one of those Dual Core things!, 800 mhz i-mac is the way to go!...

i'll probably be buying one in the next few weeks. You guys need to break out of this group mentality about bashing the ps3. Give it time and then judge. I love final fantasy, metal gear, god of war, devil may cry, and jak so the ps3 was a logical choice for me to make. And just because im choosing the ps3 does not make me crazy. whodeysay85

 

Yeah why bash a machine that can play Blue Ray movies (HDMI cable and HDMI ready TV sold separatelly) and RESISTANCE!!!, just buy it and then judge... this guy here already did the best thing in the world in his mentality.

I seriously don't see it failing, even as an X360 and Wii supporter, I will still say that it will sell, but not as much as its predecessors. gnutux

I agree actually. It will just have more in common with the Gamecube than the Playstation 2 last generation.
