i dont think it's suck...more like want to save the lens from dying to quickly

Well, I've always told myself(and others) that, price comes with quality. (but not everything la )

Seems that Blu-Ray wants to specialize on movie playback(?) and storage, I do not know why you say it sucks. Please elaborate.

Remember, I'm no PS3 fan, nor do I know much about it's feature functionalities, like HMDI(wtf?) and their play-back qualities.

hmm,to me,i personally think this is quite a bargain for a Blu player,it even plays SACD's,DVD's,CD's,or wtv.I mean,even able to play movies from sd cards and MSD's,and even able to manage audio withs its cell proccesor,22.2 if u want.Able to produce resolutions up to 1080p and stuff.Or even being a media centre that well,plays games and blu ray,Might not be as innovative as the wii,or Graphically better than the 360,But hey,u can still download games and movies*(unsure),check your mail,See and talk to your family and friends,play with your friends,then after that just sit back and relax to some music that u happen to freshly rip a minute ago,same goes to your movies,put it in and rip it,store 10 movies and still have lets say 10GB for other stuff,then delete the movies after a month or 2,then put new movies,all for the size of a house(err.).

Even though its expensive,people,will buy one eventually,maybe at launch,maybe a month or 2 after that,then maybe a year or so,or 3 years later.It doesnt matter,it just come down to this one question:Do u watch movies and surf the net,or just play?
If u do watch movies and listen to music or even surf the net,then this console is for u,if u dont watch movies but just play games which are fun and innovative its the wii,Or u just play games for shear awesomeness in graphics and dwld game demos,then the 360 is for u.

Me?i dunno,since i have the 360,i'll get a ps3 to see how good it is,then i'll get a wii as a secondary console.Dont be mad at me,its just who i'am.I'am next gen.

Which next gen are you?

the PS2 sucked at DVDs

mine doesnt...hell of a lot better than my stand alone SONY dvd player

well then I must have got a lemon. The picture is soft, a bit noisy, with poor shadow detail. Even my chum's RM700 microcompo system whacks the living daylights out of it.

me thinks wii will be the best player this november. PS3 is too much expensive. Xbox 360 is expensive too but, I can afford it. PS 3... haiyooo.

if u want for real next gen games... i think PS3 is the one... but if u like entertainment and fun and unique(not saying ps3 is no unique or entertaining or fun) but wii is guarenteed to have all the fun elements.....

but for me honestly i will go for ps3 eventhough it is pricy but it will gives the true sense of realism...(I like real-like games)....

but if u so kaya go for all la(hehe xbox360 too..)

so choose wisely my fren...

I looking foward to Wii

PS3 of course no questions about it. Wii to me more like a "kiddy" console, or more "family" friendly console. Xbox360..nothing to say about it, just not interested, rather play their games on PC.

Wow, another 'kiddie' Wii/Nintendo comment.

Zelda?
Red Steel?
Call of Duty 3?
Exclusive Resident Evil?

Hm.. Gosh, you're right! That is kidday!!

"Real" next gen games?? I don't see anything that the XBOX360 is any less next-gen than PS3. In terms of hardware, both are more or less equal. They're both current-gen DX9 Shader Model 3.0 GPU from ATI and Nvidia. The only difference lies in the CPU. Unless the CELL proves to be exceptional, there's really nothing that says it's vastly superior to the XBOX360. Currently the PS3 doesn't shows anything that can't be done on an XBOX360 or a high end PC for that matter.

Unlike the PS2 and XBOX, the old XBOX was actually 1 generation ahead of the PS2 in terms of the GPU. Here, the PS3 and XBOX360 is more or less from the same generation and the only reason the PS3 isn't released yet is due to that crappy Blu-Ray DVD that SONY is trying to cram into our throats.

The WII will probably be just slightly inferior in terms of hardware to XBOX360 and PS3, but then again, it'll probably won't be any significant difference (other than it can't display in HDTV mode) since the GPU is also from ATI.

In this gen, the graphical difference will be quite insignificant especially between PS3 and XBOX360. If you're not running HD, then the WII probably can handle anything the PS3 can do albeit at lower resolution.

The decisive factor this gen will be:
(1) Price
(2) Originality
(3) 3rd Party Support

The PS3 has lost factor 1 and 2. If they can't convince people to buy their overpriced junk, 3rd Party Support will also be a diminishing factor...and given the current respond of 3rd party developers on the PS3, it doesn't seem to bright.

Analyst have predict a very possible 3rd place placing for SONY this time.

I just hope Nintendo/MS can whoop SONY's arse and teach them not to make us consumer/supporters the pawn in their media format world domination plan.

games worth mentoning would be zelda, metroid, mario. i dont really see anything else, but maybe still early to conclude. any fighting games coming out? wonder hows it like to perform a special move with the remote, or maybe execute a tekken 10-hit combo? or maybe cant at all, must use the regular controller.

red steel - no doubt the fighitng is unique, heck i would love to try it, but how long do u think someone can play with all that swinging? i guess the attacks with be "limited".
call of duty - i always love fps on PC, no matter how good it can be on console, it never beats playing it on PC.
RE - havent really announce also, or maybe i miss it somewhere.

buy anyway, still hard to say much, must wait until all 3 launched and people can get first-hand experience.

i'll be goin for PS3.. or maybe try on wii..
but of course if im getting one it will be ps3 only..

i tried xbox 360 and never liked it cuz of the controller.. never liked it since xbox.. haha.. to me it feels like dreamcast controllers..

The devs know for a FACT that swinging too much will INDEED tire you out. That's why they took it out from Zelda and just stuck with press 'B' for slashing.

And no-one is gonna swing like mad as in, basebat bat/tennis gesture? Rest your arms on your laps, and SWAY your wrist. The Wiimote is a very sensitive control device. Unlike shaking vigorously on the House of the Dead 4 Uzi. Just go see how simple it is over the E3 videos. (and please, take a look at the Red Steel trailer, High Quality if you can)

Fighting games? They didn't come out with the traditional controller for traditional games for nothing. Besides, why play a 2d fighting game on Wii when you're looking forward to new control scheme which can never be found on other consoles? (traditional games vs. new control scheme games)



FPS's never too good for consoles? But we're comparing (traditional)controller vs. motion based now aren't we? Besides, Metroid Hunters does a very good job emulating the feels of a mouse on a TOUCH-SCREEN. Even better than an analog nub, it's smooth, it's accurate, and there's much sensitivity to controls.

You're pretty much right about 'limited' attacks in Red Steel, because Ubisoft doesn't want to include 'freestyle' sword swinging. And there's alot of things you'll have to put into consideration: Like how if you slice from above and the enemy parrys, what exactly happens when you swing all the way down? The Wiimote doesn't actually STOPS you from continously moving right? etc. etc. etc. Red Steel devs has a blog in IGN.

You want freestyle swordswinging? Let's wait till George Lucas brings us Star Wars.. *cough Exclusive cough*

you sure bout that?

as long as square-enix develop their games on certain console which is sony currenly, i will choose ps3. vice versa. period.

LOL.. You got that right!

Yeap, software sells .. FFXIII almost looks like CGI(or maybe..). I wonder what FFXVVVIIIII1111onetwomillion would look like.
