That's something people werent expecting... or even talk about. Obviously it will reduce the amount power they use... and less power = less heat. We are always hearing... CPU or GPU 65nm.. but no one talks about other components in the box.. such as this one... memory... important too...
"still it cant be a good thing that they keep changing their hardware/producers, shows microsoft has no confidence in them which makes it hard for people to have confidence in their produ...
"“This isn’t a measure of sales, but rather in-market demand for each console”, says Matt Pace, Compete’s director for New Markets. “While people go to various places online to research the consoles, those who end up at a retailer’s website and look at the consoles in detail are the best measure of people truly considering a purchase.”
uhhh.... I go to PS3 details pages (amazon) a few times a day... that does not mean I will buying a PS3.... do I? The same way can be said ...
Did you say Japan? wow... Japan sales arent making a dent.... in the installbase against the xbox 360... heck... let's see... there is no denial that the PS3 is selling better in Japan, but how better? The PS3 is doing poorly in Japan too... 11K, 20K? To put it in perspective.... Take a look at the wii... is being out for almost 1 year... how is the wii selling compared to the xbox 360? The wii is selling weekly...
Wii(Japan) 308,266
wii(US) 86,469
XBox 360(Japan...
Well.. with all the exclusive support blu-ray is getting from the movie industry + the PS3 comming with like 5 blu-ray movies (which are being count here)... I would think blu-ray would be beating HD DVD 100:1. It says a lot about the chances blu-ray would have if the movie studio would also support HD DVD...
Exactly Ri0tSquad.... you see.. it's common knowledge.. that what make large games is CGI Movies and sound... not really game data... didnt know you read about how much Heavenly Sword 10GB only on sound FX? not much sound effect on multiplayer games.. and definelly no CGI... and most of the multiplayer maps are using the same characters and textures from the single player mode....
The facts is that what you say is pure assumption....
If you own a core... that you paid $279 and you need a hard drive to play a game....
As Sony fanboys would advice you.... Don't spend $100 for a Hard Drive... total of $379... (though you could of buy a premium for $350).... instead pay another $500 for a PS3....
LOL.... Sony fanboys are making such a big deal.. but no matter how they put it.... someone with a core get to spend at least $120 less than if they buy a PS3.... yeah.. blab lba... you will try to talk about bl...
I sales numbers articles... why? Because Sony fanboys come into this articles just to rant against the xbox 360 and ignore everything that's a fact and dream about all sort of bull to make them feel better about their PS3 purchase...
Example, "the greatest - subtract 17,000 for red rings" Dude... who the heck asked you?
Plus all the other fanboys that will not shut up about the same rants one post after another... when they see news they don't like...
...
How can a game with such graphics fit 20 hours of game play on a single DVD9? is it magic? And yet... Epic can't fit a few Maps?... mmm... I wonder... if Sony's is paying Epic to perform some drama.
Why do people always have to take everything I say as an attack to the PS3... When I said, "Crap" I was not talking about the PS3 version of the game... but wherever they come with for the xbox 360.
Here is the point I was trying to make...
When a game is released first on one console... and then released a few month later for another... the game must have some extra features to encorange people to get the game... if the game come with LESS content... it will obviously...
Duhhh... I think is well known.. that clan support on the xbox 360 will not be done per game basis... just like the friend list is not per game basis but across all games... There are rumors that Microsoft is working on Clan support and may go live even as soon as this the fall update...
Not adding clan support to halo 3 just prove even further that this is true... since adding clan support to halo 3 would be redundant once clan is added to xbox live.
No likely... this is just marketting bull.. to make Sony fanboys jump of joy and run to get UT.... Just like Gears of War... usually more content is put in convince people but buy the game... ofcourse they will not tell you that... but UT will come with some extra stuff that the PS3 will have have... it's always the case... otherwise they know people reviewing the game will give it a poor review and people will not buy it for the xbox 360... specially with so many great FPS being released... ...
There Sony fanboys cry babies.... Now you can go and take a look at what a good game is like... Also, start saving so you can buy the game for the PC.... as if the money will not endup in Microsoft's bank accounts...
Why would anyone think Microsoft is about to quit... the console arena... that just does not make sense... That's like saying... that Sony was getting ready to quit the console arena simply because they made a PSP.... uhhh? If you think about it... Companies like to have more than one revenue stream in the game industry... Sony has 2 (Handheld + console) the same can be said about Nintendo.... Microsoft on the other hand.. is kind of too late jump into the handheld.. and though they may be ab...
TV Tunner... you have to be kidding me... for what? Local channels? Can someone following this... answer..what's the point of adding TV Tunner... will this work over the internet? Do I still have to pay cable service? I have media center (Vista ultimate) and though it has tv tunner... I rather to pay an extra 5-$8 just to get DVR from my cable provider... I am not going to say this TV tunner for the PS3 sucks... because I don't much about it.. and it can turn out to be the best thing since Te...
Question... and I know this means nothing to many people... or at least that what they say... but how is the PS3 version handling achivements, game invites, voice chat, etc?
Now, this is the future.. not extra space to drop models after model...
ohh wow.. as if epic is the only company to do this... you never know if Halo 3 will be the first do use this capability.. and Microsoft didnt want stinky UT to go down in history as the first game to support mod on the xbox 360.
It means Sony fanboys can't say that new maps made on the PC using map editors can't be done on the xbox 360... because microsoft just opened the doors.... It also means that companies like Epic shouldn't cry like little B!tc3s over this anymore..
Im not trying to hate, but XBox 360 still better, if we are talking about games, price and online service.
When!? When!? I want warhawk! Be buying PS3 for this game alone. Probably the only game I will buy once I get the PS3 until Metal Gear and Final Fantasy are released. Not that the PS3 will not have games that you like... but what you like is not what I like... and I already own xbox 360s... which means... the xbox 360 is my default console for 3rd party multiplatform games... ofcourse Kill Zone 2 is also a must have.
