Reason #1 :)
I do also like having the choice for HDMI on my PS3. Also the choice for non-crippled lossless audio on the PS3. I'm glad Sony wasn't so short-sited.
I'm also happy that dev's have the choice to take advantage of so much more space on one disc.. Something even Itagaki wanted as well as several other developers.
Like the cube version.. Giving us a choice.
Just as comfirmed earlier by MSthat the HD-DVD will not play lossless audio, it is downsampled before it it sent out. This article goes into a little more detail as to how it is done. Decoded but degraded.
"Unlike DVD, where typical players pass the audio data from the disc through to your receiver, HD DVD requires that players mix sounds from menus and such in with the audio being played for the movie. The 360 player software decodes all the above codecs in software, mix...
issues as well. You'd have to be blind to not hve seen all the articles and all the gamers posting issues at various gaming forums.
It's known by MS's own admission that they are fragile. I'm buying a extendo warranty for my PS3 as well.. Too many parts in both consoles.
I'll give you that though.. Sony is no angel either.
Some favorite Kazy Ken quotes :)
"The PS3 will instill discipline in our children and adults alike. Everyone will know discipline."
"We're not going to equip [the PS3 with] a HDD by default, because no matter how much [capacity] we put in it, it won't be enough."
I'm happy that they lied on this one ;)
I'm glad I have the extended warranty.
Good to see they clarified the audio as well for some who didn't understand before when I talked about it being completely degraded.
so often and their OWN console that it is hilarious.
Sorry, I'm not going to believe his propoganda, he's already been completely wrong on the PS3 before.
This is what he said:
"In fact, I'll stick my neck out and predict that that you won't see any 1080"x" games for the PS3 this year."
He should have received the axe.
Insomniac kicks butt
"clearly this is the best the PS3 has to offer" ;)
Funny that xbox360 fanbotics would argue about having the choice to improve already bet load times than the 360 offers.

I think GAMERS would agree that having a standard HDD is better for developers and gamers. Heck MS boys were crying that to be the case with the original xbox, not the cry changes that the 360 didn't continue with the smart move.
:)
for me, my hands are symetrical which means the analog placements on both sides go well at the same spot.
That said the 360 controller is great (aside craptastic dpad) and the dual shock is great so I expect the sixaxis to work great as well (especially considering they tightened up the sticks).
only downer is the lack of rumble.. Just pay immersion sony and be done with it.
He only trashes PS3 games for not looking like CGI, yet he doesn't trash xbox360's games for not living up to the CGI shown. Others have said it best "he isn't top gamer he's top MS fanboy at this site" I agree, #1 MS sheep here.
I am curious as to how the game will player. Will something like this help put a mouse/keyboard usage for xbox360 games. I just imagine the PC gamers dominating over all with mouse keyboard control. That said I'm a console gamer primarily.
There isn't another offroad racer game to date that looks even remotely close. Not on the 360, not on the xbox, not on the PS2, not on the Wii.
If there was I'd buy it.
Don't be a slave to a system like TopGamer, let the games dictate what games you play not the console.
TopGamer is one of the most close-minded people on this board. A game could have Atari 2600 graphics and be on MS's system and he'd praise it to high heaven.
He's been caught in lies on numerous occassions as well. He can't even keep his own story straight, lol
He's also a complete contradiction of his user info as well. It's ok to be a fanboy, just don't pretend to be impartial when that is the farthest thing from what you are. You are a slave to MS, your posting his...
I'm more excited about LP than either Resistance or Gears of War
Sowry
but the campaign is freaking amazing, and that is from a very old build.
I can also imagine the MP would kick ass based off the feel from the campaign.
