I have a 60gb model and as soon as it loaded I tried to get into call of duty, but i kept getting the game downloading settings, tried warhawk and when it got online it froze with the initializing screen. So I had to reset it by holding the button the console, after that everything worked fine. I played call of duty for a couple of hours and warhawk for an hour and a half while messaging friends back and forth. Everything worked fine and haven't had a problem today either.

Guess I was the only one who read the fine print that said it would be up to the developers to implement patches for the trophies and the 2.4 patch. Future games in development will of course be required to use these new features.

I was surprised that Sony released the patch early, xplay was saying the release would be wednesday.

As for use, I think it works great, the only thing I really wanted was to read and create messages while in a game. Sometime in the ...

I remember way back when, when Sony was talking about this. Of course it was a no brainer considering everything Sony has there hands in, the movie division was naturally going to be implemented. Digital Distribution is getting a jump start this summer, I don't think that this will effect blu-ray sales.

The thing I would like to see implemented which I think sony already hinted at is the ability to watch a movie with friends across the internet, implement the ps3 eye in som...

You play online for free, get free demos, free trailers and videos of upcoming movies and developer interviews.

If you pay a fee, you get a video magazine subscription with the latest information behind the scenes with developers with exclusive information for upcoming games, invitations to betas, High definition video, plus more. So what's the problem, if it is a gold membership then it actually seems like its a gold membership.

haze is just average not bad but not good either. I'm not a fan of European game developers, there humur and what american gameers want to see tend to be out of wack. Of course its just my opnion from playing the demo which really didn't demonstrate everything I was interested in, there should have been a multiplayer deathmatch with one map so you could at least see both sides.

Haze is ok, the only fault was over hype and being average.

The ps3 demands the power and you just have to give it to it. Don't argue with the ps3 because it is mighty and demands absolute power.

That's the real story, I can't beleive this is the first time I've heard of it. I think its worth the price, as long as the keep up to date content but it shouldn't be as bad as magazines. waiting for a month to find out what happened three months ago.

I think Socom is going to be the flagship shooter for the ps3. The game keeps looking better and better each time I see it. The only concern I have is the use of the sixaxis motion, I have to use it before I make my own op...

The industry doesn't work how it should if it did, if it did, then all the advertisers would be contributing money or something to the game and games would cost less because expenses would be down on their end. However this doesn't seem to be the case as games are just as high than ever.

The other side would be that advertising is indeed keeping costs down an eliminating pricy games, especially on the ps3 side. I still remember comments about games would reach $80 and $90 jus...

The game still looked fantastic, so what was the point. There are obvious points like, the game is not finished, plus how close are you going to be sitting( two inches from the screen).

This article is just a waste of space and there's nothing supporting this comparison. What I saw was was less jaggies and more detail, hopefully the game will not be in 1080p(like the pictures may indicate)but will be at 720p with 60fps. 60fps would definately make this game pure gold.

Something I've been saying for the longest. In every instance microsoft has said something is not needed, that Sony had, then turn around and implement it in their system. If Microsoft actually could implement hd-dvd for their games then they're putting their foot in their mouth again, etc...

The only thing I praise microsoft for is xbox live, its a great service, but then they charge you a monthly fee and some games a developer will charge you thier fee on top of that for th...

...web browsing and playing music, you could always do that. There seems to be visual improvements with each update. The background xmb is brighter when you're web browsing. Fonts on the keyboard seem brighter and sharper. It maybe be me, but it seems that some features load quicker, signing into the psn, the board notification, and the internet browser seems slightly faster.

One of the biggest things I would like to see besides messaging to friends while playing games, is ...

I'm not really a tech head, but I've read a number of times that it comes down to planning. I guess if you've become laxed in the way you use the resources when creating a game you become use to becoming sloppy and wasting. If you have to plan out your memory allocation and overall functionallity of the game code you are maximizing the code and game.

Don't let all this nonsense cloud your judement, its like "who are you going to belive me or your lying eyes?" 1st an...

They are on the same track that Microsoft started their first year. If Sony manages to sale the same units this year, next year, then they will be exactly where microsoft is now. So all those reports about Sony falling behind or failing is bogus. Consider that the ps3 was also saling for $200 more than the 360 and is still selling well, after the price drop and this christmas holiday coming up, what do you think will happen?

On the note of innnovation, someone has to have ...

Or it could be they don't really know what they're talking about. PS3 is ahead of the ps2 when it first launched. Maybe I just read all the good reports like Ps3 saling out on amazon, 960% sales increase and its not even christams yet. I don't believe its too far off from the first year the 360 launched.

I'll just sit back and watch history repeat itself. I remember the poor sales and non-exsistant software the ps2 had, all the difficulty in programing. Today the ps2 is ...

don't get your hopes up, I've been following this since the ps3 launch and in the community it seems they're more focused on the pc and 360. He even says that in the interview. He han't even said anything new that hasn't been said on their website.

The puzzling thing is that he states that all versions of the game will be released at the same time, but it an article a couple days ago it states the ps3 will be delayed.

Don't get your hopes up though, they ar...

It doesn't really matter, if you're getting a ps3 then you might already have a ps2. If you don't own a ps2 then why would you have ps2 games, and if you really want it, either buy another sku or purchase a ps2. The price will probably be dropped to $100 in the close future.

I will say one thing, Sony should not have all these different versions of the ps3. There should be no more than two choices, because people get confused. Believe me, after working in these industries o...

your right Home is worthless. Who would want to have portals they lead to direct lines to developers, the ability to play casual games like monopoly, pool, cards, etc..with friends around the world. The ability to stream movies for friends miles away to watch. Ooh maybe you can even watch the latest releases to theaters from your own home by using Home.

Who would put stock in a median that allows you to interact in differnt ways with friends than just voice chat. A means ...

I would just like to address the comment "Sony will struggle" its a competitors response. Its an empty statement, what will Sony struggle with? What details of their game 2.0 seems likely to fail? This is how I know that there is concern from microsoft that this is something they haven't planned on offering to their consumers. You usually go into some detail rather than turn a phrase and think its a real response.

Anything worth doing is going to take time and effor...
