Ps3

Re: Ps3

itll still do well, but one thing that is gonna kill themselves, is the hyped amount they would be delivering & they amount they are actually shipping. i am a loyal sony man. but i may be in the market for whatever next gen system is available. i am tired of sitting on the sidelines waiting. most games now days releases on both companies to help save development costs & they are less exclusives now. & im also a little concerned about all the bugs they may have on the 1st round of em.

Re: Ps3

in my books ps3 win will hands down ... i havent seen/played a single game on xbox or x360 that has me completely sold yet .. to me they are still playing catch up in terms on content ... only thing that microsoft has on the upperhand at the moment is xbox live

only thing that stops me from getting a ps3 any time from launch is its price ... so in the meantime i would get myself a nintendo wii

and i think the arguement between hd-dvd and blu-ray is crap imo ... there wont be any clear winner when some electronics company from china figure out how to replicate both technology cheap and come out with a cross-platform player

Re: Ps3

the 2 MAJOR reasons for me to go XBox are
1. Price
2. Xtender Device for Window Media

Not to mention most of my buds have XBox so XBox live will be more fun

Re: Ps3

online support for either is not a huge deal to me since i dont play online. & the price of xbox is quite attractive.

ahhh ... the old buddy factor ... i'll give it probably another 2 years and we probably could get a ps3 online party going

imagine them coming up with a online version of GTA and everyone is jacking each others vehicle .. sounds fun to me

Re: Ps3

Well, we've got one on pre-order... we're supposed to get it in two weeks. We waited in line at 4am at game stop and ended up being the first people to pre-order.

It's supposed to be a present for our child for christmas but he says he would rather have a 360 because of some soccer game for the 360. The thing is, is he doesn't know we got it for him and he doesn't think they're coming out till April of next year... he's very certain that he wants a 360 but I'm still really considering keeping the ps3 because I really want it. heh

Nope definetly not. At this stage, xbox 360 has the only two really proper next gen football (sorry .. .soccer) games!

As for the blu-ray vs hd dvd being similar to the beta max vs vhs .... the only reason the inferior quality of the vhs beat the superior quality beta max was because the porn industry turned to vhs as the cheaper way to distribute their (art) ... apparently ... Would be funny if pornography killed the PS3 LMAO!!!


But oh I wish Metal Gear Solid was on xbox360, if only I had a genie!!!

You're definitely right! I've looked for a soccer game for ps3 for a little while now but no luck. They've got a golf game but no soccer?!?!?

Re: Ps3

I went to Circuit City yesterday and one their supposed game gurus said that the PS3 wont officially take off until the middle of spring or even as early as early as summer because sony continues to "reduce" the number of units they are bringing into the states, apparently this number has dropped form 800,000 to 500,000 estimated units.

So unless you've reserved a PS3 with a well known retailer, your wait might be a little longer than anticipated.

Few other items he mentioned which I felt were noteworthy were that

1. The unit is brand new and there will be a ton of bugs and issues upon release which will be more than likely corrected through December or Jan

2. Sony did not release the PS3 quickly enough to developers and so we'll be looking at least end Jan / early Feb to get any of the good games.

3. Microsoft has been hounding licenses for ALL the good games out on Sony/PS3 and so its only a matter of time until we see them out on the 360.

4. As it stands, the ONLY PLUSES that the PS3 has over the 360 are the better graphics capabilities and the blu ray dvd player. Both of which are useless unless you got a Hi-Def TV.

He went on to say that you can get BOTH the Nintendo Wii AND the base 360 for the price of a PS3.

Is the PS3 actually bloated out to be more than it really is esp at the price it is? I surely felt that yesterday

Re: Ps3

PS3 or 360, I don't understand why they are built with great media support and graphics support, but neither are built with wireless capability. For the 360 you have to purchase a seperate card for WiFi and I can only imagine that the PS3 will be the same way.
