Honestly this is what makes you ignorant and in a way absolutely wrong.

If you're buying the next graphics card after each release then you have no idea what you're doing. A 2 year old graphics card can outlast the ps4 in graphics processing.

You build a gaming PC once and it can last you a very long time...not to mention you'll always have backwards compatibility, free online and a better overall experience in terms of performance and modding. <...

Even then, the firmware updates are not driver updates, you cannot update the GPU in consoles. If you get screen tearing or any other annoying issue with graphics, you'll have to live with.

Take skyrim for the ps3, that game was crap but if that issue was on pc, you can rectify most of the issues with a good driver update on the graphics card.

Of course the lack of ram on the ps3 was also an issue, it could have helped.

I actually know about hardware more than you. But I am preaching to the wrong crowd. Afterall n4g is very pro-sony and even something that may be considered slighlty negative, people on here tend to want to mash the disagree or try to prove you wrong.

It's up to the developers, sure...but there's a thing called a bottleneck...you can probably try going at 60fps and it will lag ...you can't put that much power at a affordable price.

I think Microsoft will match the memory. In order for them to outperform the ps4, they would need to put a higher end gpu. The ps4 can only do 30fps at 1080p, so MS still has time to enhance the cpu and gpu to achieve 60fps.

I don't think MS will have THE games, with the exception of halo,forza and gears and maybe Alan wake... but that's not to say they can't match or surpass the ps4 in performance...there's still quite a bit of time.

Prestige? really? This isn't COD

You cannot update ram and gpu via updates, those are called dtivers to allow the 3D acceleration and fix any bugs.

There are no updates or any update than can magically update the gpu to that or greater of a gtx 680. This is like going back to the late 90's and asking people where to download ram.

Another example of how stupid you sound. I'll update my ps3's firmware so I can make it into a ps4.

It's you that doesn't understand. It requires 3.55 for the moment. LV0 is the highest level in the firmware where the core files reside. LV0 has lv2self.diag which is used to access service mode.Once they modify that file you'll be able to downgrade to 3.55 and then up to 4.25+ cfw.

Along lies metldr which is the bootloader, this cannot be updated or changed...they are closer to cracking this now. Once this gets cracked...ANY ps3 slim, super slim...ect will be hac...

Sony has sued hackers where everyone else such as Apple and Microsoftjust patch and even asked for their assistance.

Sony has constantly removed features from their console within every new model.

They removed backwards compatibility for cost measure reasons but reimplemented them in a paying psn store.

How does this not sound like a company on it's last legs..The ps4 not being launched has nothing to do with the ps3's longevity, it ...

As a playstation owner of every gen, your logic has failed you.

If you believe MS is the reason for square enix's continued downfall you are clearly mistaken. Just once take out your ignorant fanboyism thoughts and just stop.

Ever since the merger Square-Enix has been shit. FFX was the beginning of the end, they raped the world map for this over the top linear gameplay, story was great but it started trickling down since then. (Yes it was squaresoft at th...

You don't? Modern warfare 2 says hi. All you need to do is grab a modified save file and you're hacking the hell out of the game.

PSN hack, compromised info isn't enough for you? You don't get that on the ps3? please after you're done dry humping your ps3 read some articles about the ps3's continous struggles against hacking and hackers.

Are people really this stupid? The more space does not mean the better the quality. Fanboys are really dumb. Funny how the so called inferior 360 can play third party games better and smoother with a constant 60fps.

Textures don't have much to do with disc size. Take crysis 1 on pc for example. By fanboys logic that game wouldn't even fit on a blu-ray disc. If everything was based on disc size then the ps3 wouldn't run anything. Textures get loaded on to the ram....

That email address is a valid Sony address, it's actually the technical support email address for anything ps3. If you've ever emailed support about a broken ps3 or anything, that's the email you get when you receive the information required that they ask.

The question you need to ask yourself is...Did Geohot push Sony over the edge?Yes, He hackes HIS OWN PS3. But he did make it sound like he wanted a job from them.

If you want this fixed, hire me. Any major corporation will not take that one lighlty. In the real world, we call that extortion or attempt. Geohot then posted the private keys on his website. Another law broken. The private keys are exactly that. "private". The only ones that know is the top guy at Sony H...

No offense but you don't know what you're talking about. They aren't looking at the dollar they slipped in to frame him. They are looking at the donations that Geohot setup for his lawsuit fees. Sony is using that as firepower.

How long do you think people will be willing to donate to the two hackers who are asking for help. Wasn't the whole purpose of the scene to be free. To be able to do whatever you want with a product YOU paid for?

I can't help but laugh at this. Donating to him may hurt him more than if he settled with Sony. Let's see how many will be donating after this news gets around.

Never donate to a hacker, you don't owe him anything, regardless if you have a jailbroken iphone or ps3. They do this with their free time and if they get screwed by the law thats their problem.

Contributing means you're part of the problem and Sony will likely target you next for bei...

I'm going to be the first to admit, I've hacked my ps3 when the scene began in August. It was a fun ride no doubt about it, all those emulators on the comfort of your couch and gamepad. But it got really old fast, pirating ps3 games is not my thing and the emulation scene on the ps3 suddenly went to a crawl.

I realized I bought a ps3 to play ps3 games, I didn't spend $400 to play super nintendo games. If you try to argue with the people that you won't be able...

This is a very smart move on Sony's part. They aren't going to alienate their userbase by banning them instantly. They will offer them a chance to update and stay on psn as long as they remove any crap to do with the hack.

This is the right approach imo Microsoft wouldn't hesitate and even ban those who updated back to the original firmware, they have earned my respect. They really do need to release alot of features next update as they owe everyone that.
