The vaunted PlayStation 3 does just about everything you'd want in a consumer electronics product. It plays all discs (except HD DVDs), stores media, plays games, lets you surf the Web, eats babies, looks cool, and invites both envy and ridicule equally.
Its image quality seems to be roughly the same as the Pioneer's, and navigating via the regular controller wasn't too obnoxious once I got used to it. (A real remote is also available.) It switches between tracks the fastest of this bunch, and, along with the Pioneer, it's the only one that lets you advance and rewind frame by frame. (The others can only go forward per frame.) If it's already on, a disc will start nearly instantaneously. If you insert a disc with the unit off, it takes about 25 seconds to start the movie. The Samsung takes almost twice that time. This thing's computing power is really impressive...
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
This article is dated April, 2007, and is therefore outdated.
more specifically:
"..,the PS3...can't (or should I say, doesn't) upconvert DVDs. Perhaps this is something Sony will add in the future, as the power is certainly there."
...among other outdated facts.
How did this old article get trickled in???
EDIT:
Ahh, I see the Bubble Monsters are still lurking in full force!...So be it; you're well likely doing me a favour...fewer bubbles will probably help me stop procrastinating on this website and get on with the important stuff.
(Spineless, yellow-belly Neanderthals...perhaps one day you'll muster up enough guts to justify your head-scratching reasoning for disagreeing or eating bubbles...other than for feeding your bitter, fragile, insecure egos.)
Imagine if it's now the top Blu-ray player, constantly being updated (and with new features available after this article came out), what will happen when it's (hopefully, if Sony knows what they're doing) $400 by holiday season, and has tons of games and services exclusive for this "Blu-ray player/console"?
in my home it is. =]
cheers
Of course it is. It is upgradeable and comes with an excellent console called the PS3. plus wireless.
Yes of course and it will continue to get better with updates
