I can't see how Sony would EVER let something like this happen BEFORE they release their own Blu-Ray players....

I expect a follow up article denying this later today or tomorrow AM at the latest...

It would be great news though if it were true (at least from a movie fan perspective. I can't see it happening though simply because this would almost force Sony to either redesign the PS3 (again) at the last minute (to include a hybrid drive instead of a straight BD drive) ...

All apologies to you sir - I should have addressed that to the specific comments ("ugly baby" and "hope that is not your actual kid")

My comments should not be applied universally to all who replied in this sub-thread. I tend to get a bit snippy about my daughter and did not take the time to specify at what.

I have been keenly interested in seeing how the Samsung BD-P1000 would be received by the early-adopters and from what I have seen at very respected AV sites like www.AVSforums.com and projectorcentral.com, the news for BD is not very inspiring...

The $1000 Samsung BD player is getting de-pants in many reviews by the $500 Toshiba HD-DVD player on video quality. That does not necessarily suggest the BD format is doomed, although it is embarassing to have quotes like this : &quo...

The early adopter crowd started panning the Samsung BD-P1000 for its inability to match (not outshine but not even match) the video performance of Toshiba HD-DVD X1-A player. That is not a "Sony" player, but it is a Sony format and the format is the problem as much as the player due to the use of poor codecs (MPEG2) instead of improved ones (VC1).

The PS3 will AT BEST have a BD player on par with the Samsung unit. This means that its performance as a BD-player is goi...

in my opinion that does not look any better than GTA:SA on the original XB.

I have not been overly impressed by this title since the screenshots and videos started surfacing for it. I am sure that a lot of people will enjoy it, but to me this game does not have the same "wow-factor" of GRAW or Oblivion or Gears or Rainbow Six or Halo 3.

It just looks like a PS2/XB title a bit too much for me...of course, that said, the sky diving pic is pretty cool. I guess t...

post negative crap about a baby picture on a gaming news forum.

I don't ask anyone to post their thoguhts on my family, I like that picture of my girl and I would have words with anyone who says so otherwise.

If someone does not like it, then ignore it, but I happen to like being able to quickly scan threads (looking for infrequent intelligent replies) by finding my little girl. If you don't then that is your perrogative, but don't grow a pair on an anonymou...

The difference between XB360 and PS3 is no where NEAR the difference between SDTV and HDTV. It is not even as pronounced as the difference from EDTV (480p) to HDTV (720p/1080i/1080p).

Both systems will connect to displays that are either SD/ED or HD via component cables and the higher priced PS3 with have HDMI, although the value of that connection is debateable unless the ICT is triggered for BD playback.

If you want to get a particular system, be my guest, but at ...

You are apparently just looking to start sh!t....please go away and take your useless replies with you, either that or wait for mommy and daddy to show you more attention - but know this - ugly or not, that baby is more loved by myself and her mother than you will ever be in your pathetic life. I am sorry you will never know what it is like to have two parents show a child such unconditional love and devotion.

Dude, lighten up on the "idiot" stuff...learn how to civilly debate a point or just keep quiet. It is far better for people to think you are a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt....

As far as the SP mode on Gears - I really wouldn't expect too much there. The game will be great overall in my opinion, but I think this is going to be a multi-player-centric game (like much of the future offerings from MS). Microsoft wants to push XBL as the way of the f...

Microsoft was also handed a HUGE benefit over the weekend when the early adopter crowd started panning the Samsung BD-P1000 for its inability to match (not outshine but not even match) the video performance of Toshiba HD-DVD X1-A player.

The PS3 will AT BEST have a BD player on par with the Samsung unit. This means that its performance as a BD-player is goign to be highly suspect at best. Sony forcing BD into the PS3 is actually going to give an even bigger boost to MS this f...

You post in every single thread it seems and you ALWAYS say the exact same things! Give it up already man, you are starting to come across as some kind of psycho-fanboy.

Of course, you will ignore this and go right on fighting the good fight I am sure, but just so you know, at one point you did not come across as such a snivelling, shrieking fanboy. At one time you were able to make half-way decent posts. Now, you are slipping firmly into the SSSJ-like depths of crap posting...

You pretty well summed it up.

Kudos!

Well the trailer on XBL says "Microsoft Games Studios" as the publisher, so I have a hard time believing that would ever end up on anything but the 360 adn Vista...

gametime/ssj04/whatever the hell you call yourself next -

do you know the definition of insanity?
Keep doing and saying the same thing over and over and expect a different result.

You are by far the most repetitive and useless person who visits these forums.

You contribute nothing but background noise. For god's sake man/boy/girl/whatever - you don't even seem to havea worth while OPINION outside of "PS3 will rule them all"...

The pictrue is an unfinished Death Star from Episode 6 : Return of the Jedi. The plot was that the "new, second and more powerful" Death Star was being constructed in secret and was the Empire's "secret weapon" so to speak.

Hence the comparison of the eye-toy thing-a-maling and the unfinished Death Star in the picture...

This has to be the worst kept "secret" in the last 6 months...

I don't know how long until the game comes out, but the videos shown on whatever system it was running seemed pretty cool. The problem I had was controling the player from some of those camera angles shown may make a beautiful game unplayable at times. I think we all tend to forget that the niftiest videos and trailers don't mean squat if the final release gameplay and camera angles are screwed up... <...
