Martini ps3 uses an open structure which allows the developer make the decision on how the game will run. Games like warhawk and resistance have dedicated servers and they run beautifully. Where as alot of the cross plat games dont have servers because the developers dont want to spend money in order setup servers.
FirstKnight most gyms have a contract that allows them to pull funds out of your account, kind of like a cell phone account. But microsoft has not contract like this and cannot pull funds unless authorized by you. This is unnaceptable and should not be allowed since they are pretty much having their way with you bank account... You get an over draft fee on top of that monthly payment and suddenly you paid 35 bucks to play for a month... Also considering that all 360 games are run on a p2p ser...
Kuest first of all you contradict yourself too much, secondly no body is trying to say the ps3 ruled 2007. Even though month to month sales were higher then that of the 360. When we use this fact as a base to prove the ps3's momentum people such as yourself bring up the no games reason. When someone provides you with a robust list of games that we ps3 owners get to play you cant accept it. So to parry you pull out the "No GOTY" nominations, even though portal and cod4 recieved numer...
Again you bring up that gimped crap pog? You are unoriginal and obviously are grasping at nothingness in hopes of pulling back something. You know damn well that the ps3 games arent gimped any more then under developed. Developers like infinity ward, criterion, ubisoft, and capcom have shown that they can get their games to run as smooth as butter on the ps3. Notice how most ps3 fans in this thread dont have to attack the 360 to get their point across but the entire year of 07' was like a dum...
First knight you're declaring victory on behalf of the 360 because multiplat games are downright equal on both consoles? How desperate is the 360 camp? All this does is to feed flame wars such as this. You cant compare multiplats as it does not live up to the systems capabilities. You instead need to look towards the exclusives to judge a consoles worth. Nearly every ps3 exclusive is downright gorgeous and has amazing physics and textures... Same can be said for the 360... You are only accomp...
Pog your OPINION, which is what gamepros article is, is just an opinion. You may think the 360 version looks better others think the ps3 version looks better but the truth of the matter is that the game look spot on for both versions. Its only people like you and gamepro that pick the games apart to try and find any minute difference. Oh and i've had assasins creed for 3 months now and have never downloaded a patch and it runs just fine.... Move along now child
How many people do you think are going to rush out and buy that expensive 120gig hard drive? Its smart because they are giving the ps3 customer options which is what the 360 camp has been pushing as their trump card. Remember when they commented on opting for an external hd-dvd drive rather then including it in the system? Besides I thought it was all about the games? How many game developers are going to go "Ohhh microsoft makes boat loads of cash off of their overpriced accesories, we ...
Price way above the market? Im not trying to turn this into a console fight but sony's pricing of the ps3 was more then fair. They included over a thousand dollars worth of features and offered it at 5 and 6 hundred respectively. Sony was losing money on every console in the begining. I think the problem was people being cheap. They only view the ps3 as a game console or a bluray player. But it is soo much more, I think sony's big flaw was not getting the game dev kits into the hands of every...
Nope IPTV is a dvr service for the ps3... It allows you to record and watch any programming you want.
Yea there was a couple of games that wouldnt let me copy my game data... Im thinking that it was the install data but all of my save files(sans two of em) copied. As far as the downloaded games from the store it wouldnt let me copy those but oh well I never play them anymore either..... I've been told though that you get 3 downloads for each purchase of content on the store....
Hehe I bought an internal 200gig hdd for my ps3 and then turned around and bought another 160 external max drive pro. I got the max drive for 30 bucks. Ohh the benefits of being a best buy employee... But anyway I formatted the drive and now it says that I have 204 gigs of storage! I was like damn I have 400gigs of storage on my ps3... Lol I love it, I even whent on a downloading blitz and transfered every jpeg, mpeg, divx, mp3, and mp4 file on my computer. I also downloaded ever video from t...
Gina-get-u I have already said this multiple times in multiple articles but since there are still people that cant seem to get this through their head I will say it again. I work at best buy, we get regular shipments of pro skus. Thats it though, we havent recieved one single elite since before christmas. In fact we recieved 10 elites on that truck that sold maybe 1 a week. We sold the last elite towards the end of january. We have only recieved a couple of arcade shipments. We've sold a few ...
POG yet again you feverently support microsoft. You attack others about blind faith but you are just as bad. I work at best buy and here at my local best buy I'm good friends with our media coordinator. He has access to best buy's stock utility. There hasnt been an elite shipped to any of the best buy's in my region for two months now, are you trying to tell me microsoft cant manufacture any elites in two months? Meanwhile we've been recieving regular shipments of the pros. Same with the arca...
Gina_get_you Fair enough but you missed one important thing, having a title platform exclusive allows the entire team to focus on the quality of one game instead of co-developing or leading and having to have enough time to port to the second console. This is why all platform exclusives are the best games on their respective platform. All resources are allocated to that one project meaning the same amount of people get the same amount of work done in half the time. This ultimately allows e...
Kevincox I want to make you aware of something... Sony posted profit for the last quarter of 2007 even with two price drops. Dont come on here pushing that "well micrsoft makes money on every console sold" whenever sony is already reporting profit. Also people like you that make comments like this are the exact same people that say all the profits come from the games.... You're pathetic
Power of Green you are like a cancer on this site. Im tired of reading your anti ps3 commenting. Instead of participating in healthy debate you seek out ps3 related articles and then proceed to denounce it as much as you can. You speak as though the 360 is the god of gaming and ignore the negatives. EVERY console has negatives, there never has nor there probably never will be a perfect console considering the differing tastes of the consumers and the type things we ask our consoles to do. I c...
Apparently you're ignoring the ps3, its is by far the cheapest and best quality player on the market. Sony was smart enough to allow you to update the firmware as they improve the technology. Also the price of the ps3 has dropped twice now and it has only been a year. People like the author and you have an automatic bias against blu-ray solely based on the price and you then try to rationalize that bias by nitpicking the technology apart. I remember dvd players in the stores costing $500 when...
You just couldnt help yourself could you? Do you have some compulsive obsession that forces you to try your hardest to deflate sony's momentum? I remember the entire year of 2007 that even though the ps3 won worldwide every week it trailed by about 40k here in america and all of those 360 centric fans on this site made sure none of us forgot that the ps3 was losing in america. Now that it has taken the lead your like "Well you may have the lead but until the ps3 sells 1 million more unit...
This whole shortage thing is total bs. I work at my local best buy that serves a metro area with roughly 500k. Its not a huge metro so theoretically we should recieve less product.. Well we have recieved shipments of 360's ever since thanksgiving. This week we even recieved a large shipment that had roughly 15 360's on it. Now the elites have been non existent. Not that we are selling them, we just havent had a shipment since well before christmas. I cant comment on what is happening with mi...
Lachance sony said that with the power of the ps3 those types of "High reaching goals" may be obtainable this generation You cite the ps2 but you fail to look at the progression of games over the lifetime of the console. God of war was a beautiful game and god of war 2 carried that torch into new territory. Sony didnt abandon their customers suddenly and left them out in the cold like microsoft. Next they didt rush to market with a product that they knew was faulty in order to beat ...
