Nice. Keeping the price down is the main thing they have to worry about I think. Oh, and I hope blu-ray works.

-The PS3 will utilize a new form of HDMI called HDMI 1.3 with 48-bit color.

wtf? better be compatible with those of us who already have HDMI.

Mag-Mower · 2006-03-15, 12:06 PM

Probably will be, just like USB 1.1 is compatible with 2.0

If there were no innovations in technology for a year, the planets would stop turning all at once and the entire galaxy would explode.

Who needs ps3 when you got xbox 360.I believe that is the best console out there.The only problem is the high demand making the price go up to $800.

OneManArmy · 2006-03-15, 05:52 PM

woah.. innovative games ps3? where the fuck are you finding this? they dont even have any games

Setari · 2006-03-15, 06:35 PM

Let me make it easier to understand. PS2 has innovative games. Japanese developers + PS3 = innovative games.

Is that better?

A Sony representative has confirmed this morning that PlayStation 3 will come with a 60GB HDD as standard, but that can be upgraded if preferred. Some of the larger US websites have been speculating that PlayStation 3 would be shipping with an optional 60GB hard disc drive. However it was confirmed this morning that all PS3 consoles will be sold with the HDD out of the box. Sony's president of Computer Entertainment, Ken Kutaragi, announced on Wednesday that all PS3 games are being developed to take advantage of the 60GB HDD.

Well, welcome to the next gen. And in the next gen, MS didnt include a standard HDD with the 360, and, MS wants you to pay to play online. Sony on the other hand has a standard HDD (unlike the 360) with 60GB (unlike the 360s optional 20BG), and gives you free online play.
