Martini you sir were just OWNED... You spout off at the mouth with those smart A$$ comments without really knowing what you're talking about. Developers were having a problem with learning the cell's architecture and how to use it. An interview that I read recently with a member of crytek the people that made crysis and are making far cry 2 are praising the parrallel processing of the cell. They love the fact that they can allocate memory from the cell to perform specific tasks... Easy isnt a...

Exactly. All of this is speculation and in no way "OFFICIAL" But as soon as someone says something like this the pro 360 posters on this site jump all over you and try to cut you down. Its rediculous, they are so hungry for something to hang over the ps3's head that they take a speculative post like this and run wild with it. This post directly contradicts what rockstar themselves have said. Hell when I clicked the link it took me too a picture of a conference table and that was i...

NO, No, NO, NO.
silver you are wrong, yes the ps3 version wasnt done but neither was the 360 version... Hell there's an article in the october issue of Game Informer where the journalist was invited to rockstars studios to preview the game and he himself said that the 360 version was no where near launch quality. So rockstar made the decision to delay both versions to give them plenty of time to finish the game. People keep taking this "ps3 caused the delay" crap too far ou...

Since your asking wow most games incorporate a mute feature.. Sony lets developers decide if and when they wish to implement psn features so its up to the developers, has nothing to do with sony or the ps3.....

Its not that they cant afford another dude, its the principal of the matter. Why is it that as consumers we demand quality out of everything we buy, but when microsoft release utter crap like this they are defended by consumers so voraciously?????? If sony had these problems with the ps3 then I would have sent it back and asked for my money back, thats exactly why I havent bought a 360 yet....

(360_rules)I'm willing to bet that last year when nearly every media outlet praised the 360 and said the ps3 would be dead by the end of the year you loved them. All news and media references have to be taken with a grain of salt, the entertainment industry is so volatile and changes to rapidly to predict. You can give your opinion of a service all you want but until the market as a whole believs that the service is worth the time and money then it will be succesful. You wont sway the market ...

Mart give it the fu@k up. Seriously dude, sony's ps3 has 7 titles that have hit the million plus mark in its first damn year on the market. Sony has just as much 3rd party suppport as the 360, your claim that the ps3 is just a movie player is an old ps3 bashing tactic that doesnt work anymore. Ps3 has the years largest 3rd party exclusive with metal gear solid, 360 has the next best exclusive with gears 2, and both have gtaiv, the years most anticipated title. Both consoles are neck and neck ...

Completely disagree with you. I love the sixaxis controller, I used to blame the hand cramping of the dual shock 2 on the shape but after I played with a sixaxis and have yet to get hand cramping I realize that it was the r2/l2 buttons and the weight. I was playing gran turismo hd and whent into that huge sweeping turn at the far end of the track using the r2's pivoting design to modulate the throttle. This allowed me to drift the turn, in effect, and it felt fantastic. Unlike the 360's trigg...

Mart I laugh at every comment you post. I dont take you seriously anymore. Seriously how can I take you seriously when its obvious how much your bias weighs in your comments. Claiming that sony makes excuses when the very company you support sold you a broken product, blamed it on you, then stepped in like some sort of hero to save the day with their 3 year warranty. Next piece of evidence I bring forth is the great xbl live server crash of 07'. Wasnt microsoft the same company that came forw...

Too many people are giving microsoft too much crdit for their xna. First of all you have to pay $99 a year to use the xna dev tools. Sony obviously took the step first with games like everday shooter and little big planet. Then ut3 came along and we have user created content. Now that these phyre dev tools are hitting I think we will see an insurgence of user created content on the ps3. Sony is avoiding the nintendo bug and releasing a limited supply of high quality games instead a pile of ju...

I knew this would happen but its just ironic how a few months back when blu-ray was dominating hd-dvd they said the exact same thing about hd-dvd. "We feel that hd-dvd is the best option for hi definition content" and now that blu-ray has won they quietly sneak over to the blu camp so they dont look foolish. Im so glad this is said and done, now I dont have to worry if my favorite movies are coming out on blu-ray. Transformers, matrix, batman begins, dark knight.... How sick would i...

Actually kwick there is a little peripherial thats called the split fish fx which is a ps controller integrated into a mouse and it is brilliant with ut3, excellent sensitivity and you dont have to worry about fiddling with a keyboard.... I prefer this setup over the pc setup, its the best of both worlds....

The reason they (microsoft) is letting people use xna to make games is because you have to, like everything else with the 360 and microsoft, pay for it. It cost $99 dollars a year to subscribe to their xna development program! Who in their right mind is going to pay just to be able to use the tools. I wouldnt be surprised if microsoft forces you to pay to be able to play the games as well... Just another scam for microsoft to line their pockets.....

What you dont even make sense? You know that as soon as microsoft makes a price cut sony will be right behind them. Hole? Sony is already reporting profits from their gaming division. 400 million for the last quarter of 2007. Wow big hole, sony has halved the production cost of the ps3 and with the victory of blu-ray and the idustry backing expect the costs to drop even more. To add to this sony and IBM have reduced the size and costs of the cell processor which will also have a huge impact o...

Actually no, most established gamers purchase the wii as their second console not their primary. Most of the wii sales are people that dont normally buy video game consoles, I see this every day at work. I see sales of 2:1, meaning for every 1 wii sold for a young person or child I see 2 sold to adults and older people. Nintendo isnt dominating the market, they are expanding into a new market if you will. So in effect the wii's sales arent impacting the sales of the ps3 and 360 that much.

Alot of people speculate that the slow down in sales of the ps3 in japan is due to smash bros brawl which for some reason is annihilating over there... But when mgs4 hits we might even see the ps3 pass up the wii over there... wouldnt that be a shocker!

Honestly dude this is hardly a system selling feature. I dont think a consumer is going to walk into a store and say "hey this doesnt let you have in game xmb oh my gosh I'm not buying this." Please stop bahing sony over this, if they add it then its just another great feature for the system. I think the success of home is far more important then in game xmb.. Being a ps3 owner for a year and a half now I've yet to find myself mad at sony for not having this. There isnt alot to spin...

Kind of like microsoft cant deliver a quality product right? Yea thats what I thought.

6555d ago 0 agree1 disagreeView comment

You're right, home and in game xmb wont be the equivalent of microsofts guide. In fact it will be better, home is revolutionizing the way we interact period, not just our consoles and games but the way we interact with other gamers. Nice try, hater...
