exactly what i've been expecting, sony are the masters of lies, but when they say "its going to be expensive" that's not the kind of thing you expect them to lie about. If its true about it being desperately underpowered (ie. not much better than the xbox2), its completely worthless. |

PS3 Possibly for USD 399 http://www.megagames.com/news/html/cons ... d399.shtml
There's a counterbalance rumour to the price thing. If its true, then that's going to put them 1up over microsoft... but i can't imagine how much money sony would loose selling it at that price. |

I dunno, its complete madness, either they've looked at Sony going down the shitter and taking the piss or they've lied at the past few conferances and are going to jump out with some radical new concept and state they were only joking. @lux, You need to play with Nintendo's Wii beyond the name, check out the shape of the "Wii-Stick", and the fact it has rumble |

Looks like sony are looking to eliminate the sale of second hand games: http://www.gamesradar.com/gb/ps3/game/n ... ionId=1006
Not suprising given this is the same company that installed virus rootkits with audio cds you buy from them |

I think he means Stake? Either that or he's a cannibal I have absolutely no faith in triangle counts, they have never meant anything. Remember gamecube launch? Sony kept saying we can do "99million", we can do "99 million", and nintendo said "it doesn't matter" or "I dunno, maybe 9?". Then they pulled out Rogue Squadren and it pissed on everything the PS2 could do, because raw triangles means absolutely nothing if you don't have full screen AA, motion blur and whatever effects you can pull off. Polygons mean nothing, effects mean everything. That said I think this cell processor has been a walking disaster. Not content with having upto 50% of the yeild being worthless, i think its more hype than results. I have no faith in the hardware, and certainly don't believe sony's bs. The numbers are bad, but in the console wars they've proven irrelevant or minimal at least in previous generations. This set though are very, very bad, but don't really tell the whole story i don't think. |

So what is your current stand on the PS3 guys? Mild shit or utter shit? No really, all Im looking forward to is Dynasty Warriors 6, but its gonna take ages for the price drop I guess. Stupid Sony I want Dynasty 6! NOW! |

Well I'm rating it based on my experience of playstation 1 and 2. I loved my psx, for a while. However, i dispised and promptly sold my PS2. The games were largely generic and I really didn't find much love on that platform. Japanese games I found largely dry and devoid of fun barring some exceptional examples. Games like Metal Gear Solid 2 and Gran Tourismo were what sony rested the existance of the console on, and I have to say for my personal choice that was just bad all over. I have no love for games like Metal Gear Solid. I find them kind of bland and not really adventurey or actiony as I like them. And mere simulation? meh... no interest in a simple racing, I prefer something like Carmageddon, or gimmicky racers since they are fun. I'm not a fan really of these generic japanese button bashers either, they get really samey and its just not my cup of tea So that's what soured me to the playstation 2, and I'm afraid the same kind of trend continued after I sold. Xbox in a large part offers the same, but I found they provided a higher ratio of better games. I really enjoyed Fable and the stars wars kotor games (although i really hated the latter at first, when i played in on the pc). They still have some utterly shit games like Halo, but I found what they offered overall were more my type of game. So bare in mind, I find sony's lineup increasingly weak and rather samey. Now sonys hardware is becoming weaker daily, the games just aren't there, and more over the price is extraordinarily high. Its a poor console at a vastly increased price. So its a utter shit in combination from me. I have no desire to buy it, if it was dirt cheap i might have for the few good games they might have got, but its not. Xbox360 is an okay console, it isn't perfect, but it not only gets the same few good games PS3 gets, there's some exclusives i've enjoyed too like kotor and Fable. Its cheaper, but still too much for what you get for my taste. Given that power wise, Xbox360 is more than a match for ps3 on paper and in practise, its vastly cheaper and has more my kind of games. This makes my decision even more against sony. There's better, cheaper and more available already. As for your point about dynasty warriors, Dynasty warriors will come out on the xbox360, just like they do now on the xbox 1. That's kind of my point, about why i'm not getting a playstation 3 unless they seriously, seriously shape up. |

Oooh thanks Spud I didn't know Koei also went for Xbox 360, then there's still hope! I presume 360 will get cracked and modded sooner, and the price will be lesser once PS3 makes the scene. Hmmm will wait and see, but if Sony makes the complete fall down the shit lane... then it will definitely be 360... I also presume it's gonna be able to use it as an xvid media player just like the old one? After the modding off course. |

360 is already "cracked", if you mean play pirate games. You don't even need a modchip. As for a real software scene, its not looking overly brilliant atm, nothing like the xbox 1 scene. Sony scene is always just for playing pirate games, the loading of software players wasn't really very good on the ps2. If you weren't aware xbo360 has been cracked, two threads down: http://forum.dead-donkey.com/viewtopic.php?t=10753 and guide: http://forum.dead-donkey.com/viewtopic.php?t=11286 |
