i wonder if i can cluster my two ps3, two ps2 and two psp and one original xbox together into a supercomputer.. don't think i will bother with clustering my ds though..
i take it he isn't a big fan of nintendogs.
freeview is not rubbish.. the system has been a huge success.. i am suprised you have this view since there are lot of channels that are quite good.. film4, e4, vigin1, dave to name a few.. plus for those who don't own sky+ the e4+1, ch4+1, film4+1 channels are a godsend..
furthermore, this device is a one off purchase so it isn't like spending 25 pounds for a freeview device that will need to be binned two years from now.. 100 pounds for a one off purchase is not bad... and ...
actually there is a report that says the 5 main channels might go HD as early as next year... the only issue is bandwidth but that is being resolved..

and this playtv was designed to be upgradeable to HD standard - this is actually in the release notes for the device.
EDIT:
of couse channel 4...
HD signal will go live soon in the UK. They have already been broadcastin HD signals off the Crystal Palace tramsitter in London.
Why is PlayTV worth it?
1. its has twin HD Tuners (currently only standalone twin HD tuner in existence)
2. can program recording via psp
3. can watch recording via psp
4. regular firmware updates
HD recorder drive size upgradeable.
i will definitely buy one cosnidering you can't even...
handheld gaming is the future.. i have no doubt that the biggest fastest growing segment of gaming is handheld.. you only need to look at the month on month sales to see how big handheld gaming is...
ms is 100% working on a handheld.. it will be comparable in spec the original xbox, has touchscreen and motion detection.
that's probably because it hasn't been born yet
muppet alert.. i use skype all the time so this comes in handy.. and you are right, anyone who rates sudoku as his game of choice for the psp definitely knows less than nothing about the machine..
to go with analogies this guy is as useful as source for psp knowledge as a turd in the swimming pool...
both versions need to be played to really see the difference..
it just seems strange that when the xbox image isn't blurry the commentator says the ps3 has worst textures but when the xbox image is blurry the same commentator says the ps3 has worst motion blur....
can someone explain to me why the ps3 version looks worst in the picture below:

i really need to get a good surround sound system but can't be done with all the wires running around the living room.. it's already spaghetti junction behind my tv...
why would a manufacturer want to pay royalties to both blu-ray and hd-dvd when then know that hd-dvd is rapidly becoming a minority format.
toshiba knows the game is up and cannot afford to stick will hd-dvd until the end. even until this day betamax hurt sonys image and i doubt toshiba will let hd-dvd tarnish their image in the same way.
a good company is one that knows when to cut its loses and run with the pack.
only microsoft and its deep pock...
what is the actual point of endgadget having this guy on their payroll??? anyone here feel like they wasted their time readin this article?? i think i now know less about the format war after reading this pointless piece of journalism.. for god sake it isn't even a prediction since he predicts two totally contradictory things:
1) Warner will indeed go Blu-ray only at CES, sending the HD DVD camp into horrific fits of panic.
2) Warner will throw us all a curve...
"buyed this game is stupid"..
hahah.. thanks for the laugh.. contender for smartest statement of 2007 award???
Peace out
not really because a major (major meaning heavily hyped/big production costs) exclusive might not be awesome and hence not the reason to buy a ps3.
i have now read five articles in the past few weeks stating that uncharted, ratchet, gt: prologue, lbp and ff13 are, individually, all reasons to own a ps3. so basically - apart from lair - almost every major ps3 exclusive is a reason to own a ps3???
"I hate "driving" games. My life is short. If I wanted to move round in circles with little chance of variation for countless hours I would have bought a motorcycle and grown a giant arm." - previewer
why the hell get him to preview the game???
the best news for me is this industry is a three way shoot out with no winners => best for consumers
hardly any difference and not enough to have a mass debate over
yes you are right - the xbox 360 is the ultimate portable gaming system.. how the hell can you compare an xbox with a psp??? in fact the only time anyone xbox 360 is portable is when it is being sent back for repairs.
this is only relevent for people who have both consoles and can't decide which version to buy. however, i do think 1up comments are a bit negative towards what i think is a better version (ps3). i mean:
less screen tearing, better controllers, better textures >>> user tracks
