umm... lets see, I'm pretty sure this is why they have separate playstation store sites right??? It's funny: users are complaining that their download on another territory which is different than the one they are in is not working. I would understand if this demo didn't work on their PSN store but c'mon! Anyways, the demo is great, 9.6/10! I can't wait for the real thing.
Why is the review copy on dvd?
Your wrong high, in-game xmb is coming.
" I think that the industry really needs to grow up and get away from this Xbox vs. PlayStation mentality."
While I think the industry needs to grow up a little its actually that mentality that provides competition! Without it, there would be no great games. We NEED ps3 vs xbox360, ultimately it decides who is the winner in this 'war' and also produces great games along the way.
And this is so the fanboys can get crazy:
ps3 > xbox 360
They are only letting Toshiba build chips FOR them in order to lower cost. Idiots I swear, some of you don't read.
When each store is only receiving about 10 units then of course they are going to 'sell out'.
If your going to say hes an idiot then at least provide some evidence.
He's right as far as I can tell.
Your absolutely correct. I have been used to the 'Microsoft' way of programming, with easy to use API (.net framework, etc) and programming in c++. I tried to make a program under linux for fun and learning pleasure and guess what? Night and day difference and it's still the same programming language! C++!! When game developers program for the 360 (xna framework, etc) they fall in love. It's very easy to use when compared to the ps3 or any other platform however because of XNA you cannot sim...
It's so funny how everyone has this impression that the ps3 has less memory than the 360. IT HAS THE SAME AMOUNT. The difference is the 360 has a the whole 512 for the gpu/cpu and the ps3 has it split. However, the ps3 can still access the memory from either side! It's obvious the ps3 is more powerful, it's just going to take these devs to show us the proof! All in due time...
Are you that ignorant? How can you say BlueRay is not needed when CLEARLY the developers have said it is!! Kill zone takes 2GB at least for each level, even with compression you would be able to fit more when compared to the 360. Also, the reason Sony didn't come out with the controller on day one was because of the lawsuit! They simply couldn't, now that it has been settled, they are going to implement it!
I thought you can control the camera with the SIXAXXIS?
To bad they really have not done any 'testing' on the ps3. They are just purely guessing. There is no proof of viruses, nor have they found any malicous code that can ruin a ps3. A psp, yes, but not a ps3.
They state the xbox 360 is more secure... lol thats why its already been hacked right? I guess they didn't notice that the ps3 has been out for almost a year and there is no way to run homebrew on it yet.
Your are pretty much right on the money however, there are certain aspects to the hardware that allow a more direct way of coding specific AI codes. Such as collision detection, depending on the SDK (I have not seen Sony's) they may have easier ways of doing this sort of code such as through an API call, this in turn will allow more efficient coding which is something Ubisoft and EA love! (Less time, more money) However, the easier way is not always the best. I have always believed and seen (...
I love the people that say 'the ps3 is only marginally stronger...'
Ok idiots, I'll explain it again, but please try to listen this time.
If you are looking at the graphics card only then yes, the ps3 is only marginally stronger than the 360 HOWEVER, the real power of the ps3 is with the CELL + RSX. Have you even seen what IBM has done with the CELL only? They were able to simulate a full city (in real time).
It's a fact of the technology world: The faster and bet...
Radient,
Because now they actually come with wireless controllers. I don't want to get off my couch/bed and swap disks anymore. Yes I'm that lazy.
And how would anyone knows its coming on 360? Two DVD's can mean PC
Xbox 360 down in sales, PS3 up, whats new?
lol... I love reading idiots that have no idea how to even turn a computer on. (Like you probably)
Do you even think when you type?? I didn't think so.
First, the ps3 and 360 have the same amount of ram. Both the CELL and RSX can access each 256MB of ram for a total of 512MB available.
Second, PS3 has an HDD hard drive and plenty of space on the BlueRay Disk. If the delay was to be blamed on a specific console, it would probably be the 360.
And for ...
Bloodmask,
The cell processor it self does not process GPU instructions very well however the SPU's certainly do, infact they can't do 'normal lines of code' very well at all.
InstallShield, you are wrong
The cell can INDEED access the GDDR3 Ram, it is just slower. The reason you can't access it in Linux is because the Hypervisor does not allow it too, however the devs can certainly use it. Before you post sh!t, get your facts right.
