[Fragmatic]

Bastards, they chopped the buttons in half :(

[Mag-Mower]

I heard that they wanted to go for a more alien look, so they cut the symbols in half to make it look like hyro-gliphics...

[SilverLord]

Going to be awesome.

[Baneblade]

That looks retarded. I hope the actual machine doesnt.

[Mag-Mower]

well, we'll see in 4 hours! :D:D

360 > Alien-whos-a-whats-it with bad buttons

[Mag-Mower]

360 sucks :p

[ViperGTS]

Wow.
I actuly like that o.O

[Infernus]

360 sucks :p

I'm sure. :rolleyes:

[LimpBIT]

CANT WAIT, and Xbox 2 if they are making one.....

[Mag-Mower]

I'm sure. :rolleyes:
no your not.

[Infernus]

CANT WAIT, and Xbox 2 if they are making one.....

Its called 360, its going to be out for Microsoft's second fiscal quarter... and the version I'm getting has a 40GB HD and TiVO.

:p

[Mag-Mower]

2 frigging terraflops for the PS3 inf, 1 more terraflop than your precious 360, it will use blu ray, release in 2006, and have built in ethernet, and the video card is twice as pwerful as a 6800 ultra...

[Mag-Mower]

its official

[Infernus]

But its sony. it loses.

[Infernus]

It still uses cables? What the fuck?

[Mag-Mower]

what do you mean it still uses cables? the conttrollers are wireless

[ViperGTS]

That controller is so fucking ugly. I thought the 360's were bad.
Wow.

[Kyonye]

That controller is so fucking ugly. I thought the 360's were bad.
Wow.


seriously...the system isn't bad but those controllers are horrible looking...

[Mag-Mower]

The controller is awful, yes. but that controller is the reason why we have companies like logitech, and other hardware manufaturers. PS3 can also support up to 7 controllers

[Kyonye]

So where exactly do the controllers plug in? I know they are wireless but there has to be some sort of plugin for it.

[cyberkiller]

has anyone noticed the spiderman font on front of the PS3? and also watched the Sony confrence and seen how much they refer to the spiderman movie's cgi =P

*edit* im getting both, but im in favor of the 360.

[Mag-Mower]

ok, i gots picture that puts the two side by side with all their tech specs

http://img13.echo.cx/img13/6264/ps3vsxbox3608gn.jpg

[Hamma]

Playstation will always be > Xbox in my book

As I see it MS just saw a way to make money and doesent really have a great console, as those specs prove :p

[ViperGTS]

Fuck :(
Die sony die!

[Kyonye]

I'm still gonna pick up the Xbox 360 just because i've always stuck to Xbox. I never owned a Playstation..i've always had Nintendo and then Xbox...

[Mag-Mower]

well, since i feel like bashing xbox fans souls even more, i have got some movies for y'all

for MattXMosh (http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/action/killzone2/media.html)

and

For Frag and MattXMosh also (http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/driving/granturismo5/media.html)

[Infernus]

But how much is it gonna cost?

Exponentially higher then the Xbox I'm betting.

[Mag-Mower]

But how much is it gonna cost?

Exponentially higher then the Xbox I'm betting.
most likely the same. Why would sony release a console that will cost 2 times as much as th 360? they would lose a ton of business, and it would never sell, plus these high end parts are cheaper when you mass produce them than making it from parts from newegg. My prediction, it will cost the same, because like i said before, sony isnt going to charge $1000 when their competitors system is ony $400...

[Infernus]

Somehow I doubt that.

[Infernus]

The Xbox 360 showed only in-game footage. Sony are showing you PRE-RENDERED sequences. Killzone is not in-game, it was Pre-Rendered by a company in the UK.
Sony know the masses will think this is in-game and make the Xbox 2 look dated before it's released. Microsoft are being staight with you. Sony are scum for doing this.

Hahahaha... They've done that before too

[firecrackerNC]

Ill wait for X-box 3 or 4.

[Mag-Mower]

Hahahaha... They've done that before too
linakge?

As i read that i noticed a few weird things:
-A Company in the UK
-Microsoft Are Being Straight With You
-Sony Are Scum for doing this
-Sony are showing pre rendered footage
-Sony know the masses will think this is in-game
-Xbox 2

Well, the correction:
Killzone ism ade by Guerilla
Microsoft is being staright with you
Sony is scum for doing this
Sony is showing pre-rendered footage
Sony Knows the masses will think this is in game
its the Xbox 360

Now, for more corrections:
These are tech demos, they are not going to show you non gameplay clips, because that wouldnt be a tech demo, and the only game rumored to be fake is Killzone, what about the other 10 games?
Sony is not showing pre-rendered anything, they even had several live demos...

This source is complete bullshit, they dont know anything, and it sounds like it was written by a 4th grader...

[Baneblade]

coulda sworns the PS2, XBox, and GC were and still are all the same price.

[ChewyLSB]

Well, the PlayStation 2 launched at, what, $200? And the XBox launched at $200, too, didn't it? If that's any indication...

[Ivan]

Why are you guys fighting over something as trivial as this? :huh:

I'm sure it's going to be like it is now, at least to me. XBox will have a few good games and Playstation will have a few good games. So I eventually buy both. :D

:lol:

You're not offering debate at all - you're offering total fanboi-ism.

Fact is, those demos of xbox 360 games werent running on the console (at the mtv launch) - they were running on .... wait for it.... MACS! :rofl:

SShhh! Don't let Reconnecting see that! :lol:

Inf, I'm not yelling at you or anyone else I just thought this thread a bit Silly! ;) :p

[MattxMosh]

Those videos look hot.

I'm not the fan boy type, but seriously, Sony > MS in the concole world. Since PS1 launched, like 90% of the console games I have wanted have been for PS/PS2. I don't care about specs, other than to laugh at the seemingly large gap. Both companies take huge hits and lose millions on the consoles themselves, and make thier money with software. I'll probably buy both, but unless the 360 has something really good, I will not get it at launch.

[Baneblade]

Well, the PlayStation 2 launched at, what, $200? And the XBox launched at $200, too, didn't it? If that's any indication...

rofl, try more like $700, but within a year they only cost about $300

[Fragmatic]

rofl, try more like $700, but within a year they only cost about $300

Sony PlayStation 2
Release Date: October 26, 2000
Launch Price: $299 USD

Microsoft Xbox
Release Date: November 15, 2001.

You both lose.

All hail the great sarcasmo.

Neither did I, but what I DID do is research, no point bringing up something if it's not valid.

[Smaug]

Holy shit, it's the war of the fanboys in here.

[Mag-Mower]

This is a thread for the PS3... if you wanna bash the PS3, go and make a thread said "OMG PS3 WTF NERF! Xboox woont be teh powerful anymore". I made this thread to discuss the PS3, and not to have a console war... make your own thread for that.

And, contributing to this thread... Has any one seen IG 8? that game looks amazing, it looksl ike it defintley has style and all, Its like COD, but your not fighting Nazis any more, your fightin monmsters. This game look great for a few reasons: its got style, the monsters are fricking amazing, and look at the number of soliders onscreen at once!

Please define style, do you mean like this...

Well, i made a mistake, its called I-8, and here are all 3 shots of it:

According to the Tech TV coverage, the Revolution will be priced around 100 dollars less than the PS3 and 360. The Sony and Microsoft systems are suppose to be 399 US. Also the Revolution is backwards compatable with all other nintendo games via internet downloads of the games. Although both other systems do this, they don't offer the range of titles that Nintendo does, and they include a bunch of crap that any decent computer could do. Microsoft in paticular has been taking a lot of crap about their system and the seemingly little focus on the actual gaming aspect. My money is with Nintendo, although I might by a PS3 at some point.

[Mag-Mower]

well, my list prority list for next gen consoles was:
PS3
X360
Revolution

But like kam said, the revolution is backwards compatibe with all nintendo games, and there are a few N64 games I wouldnt mind picking up again, along with some gamecube games too...

that being said, myl ist now is like this
PS3
Revolution
i dont want a 360... :p

Exact same.

[EarlyDawn]

If that Killzone footage was legit, PS3 would be under consideration, but as it is, 360 looks more user-considerate and interesting.

[Baneblade]

You dont buy yours from Japan?

[Kam]

Microsoft had apple running its demos...

[Mag-Mower]

Microsoft had apple running its demos...

i know! hahahaha! i was on anandtech, and they had about 10 pictures going in this order

"hmm... 360 isnt actually running the demos"
"is that a G5?"
"Yea, its a G5"
"WAit, there are two G5s"

i was just sittiing there going :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[hex222]

well, my list prority list for next gen consoles was:
PS3
X360
Revolution


my priority list is:
PS3
X360
10 tons of crap
revoloution

i was going to get the x360 and PS3 both when they come out, but i think it turns out that the PS3 comes out before my birthday, so i suppose i'll wait until my B-day for a X360, like i did with the xbox

i don't like all this sony v microsoft fanboi stuff, it makes me :( , so to make me happy, please :rant: about this word for my sake:







REVOLUTION

[Fragmatic]

Why should we rant about the revolution? What should we rant about considering we know sweet fuck all about it other than what it looks like (which is only a prototype as is)?

[Biohazzard56]

Based on what ive seen so far its not a Revolution. I mean if your a company as big as nintendo and come to E3 with a tiny black box, a new GBA, and news that its going to be able to play 20 year old games, whoopidy fucking doo.

[hex222]

does this make me a troll???

[ChewyLSB]

Blargh, I'm getting a PlayStation 3 just for the sole fact that Devil May Cry 4 and Metal Gear Solid 4 are coming out.

[steeldragon01]

Also killzone 2

[Mag-Mower]

and the next GTA, which i hear is exclusive to the PS3

[steeldragon01]

gta=:D

[hex222]

so there are 4 USB's on the front and 2 on the back, so if it can take 7 controllers where is the 7th, is it that square port on the back, and is that the one on the back of the PS2 or the front???

also, where do the memory sticks meant to go???

[Mag-Mower]

-Controllers are wireless, so 7 controllers wirelesly
-there is a plastic piece on the from of the system that is to be removes, underneath that, you put memory sticks.

[Infernus]

Explain 7 controller wireless... 7 way split screen?

[Kam]

I seriously doubt that, you need two TVs probabaly.

[hex222]

i doubt, there r 4 on the front so i think max 4 with 2 oin back for other stuff, dvd controller and eye toy stuff, then something else somewhere, i think it can take 2 screens on 2 TV's, only HDTV's tho, i thnk

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps3

i think all the pictures are here

thanks bout mem sticks

[Mag-Mower]

I seriously doubt that, you need two TVs probabaly.
which the PS3 supports. 2 tvs at hd... but they dont have to be hd, but you would miss out on a lot if you didnt have a hdtv

[Infernus]

so basically everyone that doesn't want/can't afford HD TV isn't getting the entire shaft? but a nice bit of it?

[BUGGER]

& controllers is a bit much, if its 4 per tv, why not 8 then?


As for what i want is the 360. It sounds desent, i dont need the best system in the world because i bet sooner or later i'll get a PS3. The 360 however as i read, you can now lay in the bed and easily turn off/on the consol just by a button on the controller. I really like that. :D


And knowing Bill Gates being the money troll he is he'll probly buy out Sony to get rid of competition. :rolleyes:

well, i liked the idea of a on/off seitch on a controller, but my concern is, what if you accidently hit the off button? then you loose all of the progress you have made....

[Kam]

lol I can see that now... "Omg this game is awsome, man I'm finally on the last level, I shoud probably save but well. Sweeet here we go, woops. (drop)
Noooooooo! (coke can emplodes)
NOOOOOOOOOOO (360 splits in half)
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo! (TV blows up)
