How is this news?
I did, asshat. The article is nothing but a bunch of negative, speculative bullsh*t.
From the article:
"It’s doubtful that its pending release and offer of free goodies (shouldn’t it all be free?) will build the hype once again. "
"To do this they need to surpass the gamer's view of Nintendo’s Miis and the Xbox 360’s avatars. And despite the latter struggling to be cool, PlayStation Home has more at stake. Its extras must be justified t...
Microsoft said? Just like they said Zune was the next revolution in mp3 players. Windows Vista was the next generation and evolution of operating systems. They also said Windows XP Service Pack 3 would never happen. Hmmm... if I had the time I would list more of what Microsoft said and then found to be untrue.
I wish women attacked me like that when I played golf... Although my wife would probably be curious as to why I was golfing so much.
DOOMED!! Major tech vendors, VG publishers and studios and commercial entities signing up for advertising an exposure! DOOMED I TELL YOU!!! DOOMED!!!
Asshat
HDMI + Full RGB + Super White = fixed
Review sites have done this and was proven in the "Assassins Creed" debacle a while back.
Excellent vid showing how the SPUs are applied to the game. Bubbles for you!
You do know the Cell is capable of rendering graphics and assisting the GPU, right? The RSX was included to supplement the Cell and vice-versa. This is the inherent advantage of the PS3 as it is not limited to what the GPU can do. Rather for those who are reading comprehension impaired... The GPU should be used as a baseline of performance which can be further improved/enchanced by using the SPUs on the Cell if need be.
Oooh I know. You weren't on until later in the night when I was playing my last match, sorry. Although I agree. When opened to friends or all hell it is damned near instant.
From the article:
"As is usual when we get together for a game over the PSN, the first attempt took 20 minutes of trying to find each other,..."
This is his description of getting in Co-op with R2? Hmmm... played Co-op 2 nights ago. Hit triangle, invited a couple buds to party, partied up in about 2 minutes, joined game and up and playing in about 4 minutes total (wait time for game to start included). So this 20 minute thing either means he is using a ...
Seeing that people associate the RRoD with disappointment why not call it..
"The Wedding Ring"?
$39.99 for a Blu-Ray? I haven't spent more than $25 on any of mine and avg. around $20 - $21. The MPAA may want that price but it ain't gonna happen simply because the distributors and studios want to make money on BD not lose money.
The good news is that IBM has been able to squeeze out nearly 97% of the theoretical max, which in turn would be 97% of the SPUs. So assuming devs can get a better hold I would imagine maybe 80% - 85%. In any case it is still a ton more power. Also note that KZ 2 using 60% is a lot different than say, Dead Space using 60%. A simpler and smaller game using the same power that KZ 2 is using would be absolutely mind blowing. Remember that it only hits up the 6x SPUs at 60% when there is a he...
OMG!!! That picture is classic! roflmao!! People at work are starting to stare at me cause I am still laughing. That is priceless!
That's the end of all that speculation. Metal Gear Acid for the iPhone, sweet!
Yeah, but you have to admit it is a good question.
You said Zune!!!! ROFLMAO!! It was, is and will always be one of the most mocked MP3 players out there. Why? Well for one it pretty much sucks. Two MS pulled yet ANOTHER "ME TOO!!" when they saw how well the iPod was doing. Three look at reasons one and two. Besides iPod Touch > All mp3 players.
***Waving hand wildly in air***
What the hell were you thinking?
I believe I found my answer after searching the wibbly-wobbly-web...
Turns out that the software BC models still retain the GS from the PS2 and have only had the EE removed. The software emulates the EE but the PS2 GS still does all the graphics work. Now knowing this I looked into why software BC on current non-EE/GS systems hasn't come yet. The answer I found to that was that the bandwith between the memory and GS far exceeds that of the RSX and its' memory due to the fact t...
No I haven't read anything else from this site, pro-PS3 or not. This is the first article I have read and regardless of the fact that it is an opinion piece it has a negative spin. First impressions are always the best and this left a negative one...
Now back on topic... DOOMED I TELL YOU! DOOMED!!!!
