QUOTE(pirateguy @ Mar 9 2007, 12:52 PM) oh yes. If every game is on BD then it will magically becomes better! Eh, u only write out future proof that is dead. DVD player is one of the future proof stuff. The reason DVD is successful is because of PS2 also.Look at these "future proof" features from the original PS2: Firewire - DEAD HDD expansion slot - DEAD Modem/LAN add-on - DEAD Is that suppose to make games better? Or for that matter does anyone care about HDMI 1.3? More like overhype "fact". For what? You can't even find BD movies at your regular video shop. 5 years later maybe lah provided the format does not suffer premature death like Betamax. Yet Wii outsold PS3. Is game in BD, developer can make more powerful game. Its in the future. HDMI 1.3 is the latest generation HDMI to transfer video and digital multichannel audio. Won't make game better. But for future LCD tv which some of you will buy. It doesn't need 5 years. Look at DVD. It just took 1 year to swamp the world with PS2. And DVD follows suit. PS3 is not that much expensive than other console. We should support PS3 now. Of course Wii outsold PS3. PS3 volumn is low. Ramp up is slow. Wii is easier to build. Ramp up easier. We'll see this in 1 year time. PS3 will be in a lot of people's home. BD will win. HD DVD will become betamax this time. This post has been edited by gogo2: Mar 9 2007, 01:00 PM |

QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 09:10 AM) Actually if we look at the price: i think many of us already agree,it's not as expensive as many people make it out to be,especially given the fact that it comes with a HDMI port and BD player...PS3 - 2150 XBOX360 - 1550 Wii - 1550 PS3 is just extra 600. What is 600 if you're getting Blueray disc, Cell processor, slot drive, memory card reader, SACD, etc? but people wont be looking at those two ONLY as the ps3 is primarily a games machine,it should have more games to support it(which currently it lacks,unfortunately) QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 09:10 AM) if i were to choose with a limited budget,i'd get a 360 with 3 games instead of the ps3,since MGS4 isnt out yet... at least get to enjoy GoW,err..well,thats the only game im looking at on the 360.. QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 09:10 AM) Unless you really like Xbox Live! or Wii's dna, PS2 fanboy will sure stick to PS3. And PS2 install base is huge. that's right...ps2,not ps3 QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 09:10 AM) doesnt matter. cos in the next generation war, there's already a winner.the gamers QUOTE(Naota-kun @ Mar 9 2007, 10:39 AM) it will suck just look at MGS and MGS2 Substance on the pc..... the game is still fun to play,but overall, with the controls...it's suited best to the consoles... plus must upgrade the pc again...malas la! QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 12:15 PM) Hahaha, I'm just stating the fact. one thing about adding HD DVD playback to the 360... Where got expensive, its the same price bro. Just add RM600, u got BD player. Even for Xbox360, if you want to add HD DVD, u need to add rm600. So which one is more expensive? Its the same lar. you'd be having an extra drive. so if you're hd dvd drive goes kaput,you can still game on the 360's drive. for those with tight spaces at home,it wont look as nice as the ps3,though.. QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 12:15 PM) Added on March 9, 2007, 12:18 pmBy the way, the upside of buying PS3 is, there's not risk of getting 3ROD. PS3 is running cool and quiet (like AMD Cool n' Quiet). But XBox360 is hot and noisy. Wii games if for kids and graphics is pretty bad for new generation console. PS3 is the way of the future. eventually we might be seeing things happen to it.. QUOTE(rx330 @ Mar 9 2007, 12:50 PM) QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 12:59 PM) Eh, u only write out future proof that is dead. DVD player is one of the future proof stuff. The reason DVD is successful is because of PS2 also. that depends..Is game in BD, developer can make more powerful game. Its in the future. dont go around expecting most would just use it for extra languages,or behind the scenes like you said,it's in the future. nothing is for certain QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 12:59 PM) the smarter play would be to go and buy a ps3 when the game you want to play is on the wii,you've just screwed yourself |

I already own a PS3 and I am loving it. Why bother with junk consoles like 360 and Wii...come on, grow up. Forget that nostalgia mario bros bullshit. Its time to move forward!

Opps...I didn't know many of you agree PS3 is not expensive. If like that, I don't have to open a thread just to educate people that PS3 is really not expensive. Its actually cheaper than buying a BD player. |

QUOTE(gogo2 @ Mar 9 2007, 01:19 PM) You can put more info in to the game. BD have larger storage than DVD. But HD DVD for Xbox360 is coming. To upgrade, the price of Xbox360 will be the same as PS3. So PS3 is not expensive at all. u really got no idea what ur talking about. XBOX is XBOX. PS3 is PS3.data compression technology is getting better by the day. im guessing how many 360 games will use HD DVD?. correct me if im wrong about this statement.

I wonder why u guys want 2fight for the latest console. Everybody got their preferences, can't force anybody 2get what console u like right? Even if u support single console also no need 2bias on another console. It sounds like a nerd (no offence yea).
Anyway, we just can wait& see how all the console sales doing...no poing shooting each other for nothing |

I wished I saved my copypasta on /v/.
Anyway, I don't see myself getting a PS3 anytime in the near future. Why? - Very little games that interest me (Resistance and Motorstorm oh wow). No RPGs or action games. Later in the future, MGS4, FFXIII, DMC4... long way to release. - Pricey - Don't have a OMG L33t TV to play to it's full potential. Still using a 10-year old 30inch CRT. - Lol, Blu-Ray. Even pirated Blu-Ray games will be expensive, and Blu-Ray movies have a long way to come. The most important point to me know is that there are very little games for it to justify my purchase. I don't like the games lineup for Wii either. 360 is the only appealing choice to me now. Nice library of games too. But I think I'll wait a bit to buy that as well. Horror stories of 3ROD abound... mostly FPS games... Mass Effect will give me a slight push. Until then, it's back to my PS2 and PC. This post has been edited by Zephro: Mar 9 2007, 02:00 PM |

But can the PS3 play all my *cough* PS2 backups?
Zing. And there are very few games on it. Why should I spend 2000+ bucks just to play Resistance and Motorstorm? Then comes the waiting. Yay. |
