Kinect isnt a step forward at all.. In fact the tech behind kinect was previewed and then turned down by both sony and nintendo seeing as it had serious flaws, which are on full display with kinect... In fact sony based the eye toy on the technology that powers kinect.. But they realized that without tangible buttons and tactile response the experience was "lacking" Microsoft bought out the company, known as 3dv tech, and in the course of the development of kinect bought up a couple...
Umm I beg to differ.. In eye pet for example you can reach forward and make a "scratching" motion with your hand not the wand and the eye pet reacts as though you are scracthcing his fur... Eye pet can also chase your hand, if you quickly move your hand to the other side of the screen he looks confused and he begins searching and when he sees it he tries to pounce on it.. All of this is done without the move wand so dont sit here and tell me that move can't track your bodies mov...

My pecs, especially the right one and my thighs/glutes are the only thing hurting me.. My right pec is the worst one though.. It honestly feels like after I've lifted... I never realized it was that physical. LOL I think I was getting too pissed at disc golf in the gold cup.. That is HARD and so I was heaving the discs like an olympic shot putter... lol
I agree with you there.. God of war ghost of sparta, chains of olympus, metal gear peace walker, kingdom hearts birth by sleep, final fantasy tactics, locco rocco 2, patapon 2 and more.. Ugghh I cant wait to pick up my ghost of sparta bundle....... Whats so funny lolzers??????
Do you seriously think people are going to pay more for a handheld then the wii costs?? Wow that wishful thinking.. If sony can't blow the technically superior psp's out the door at an alarming rate what makes you think the 3ds is going to be such a huge seller? Price has always been the driving force behind the ds and now they are even closer to the psp in terms of price... Lets see I can get a psp that plays feature length movies, has wifi built in, and much better graphics for 199 ...
one word PRIDE.
You do realize that was all over the lawsuit that was filed by immersion right? Only reason it was a non issue for microsoft is because they settled out of court and paid immersion alot of money...
Dude you are missing alot of important facts.. For example developers can make 720p games run at a full 1080i or 1080p where the disc size would be important but the amount of raw data that is required to run these resolutions causes serious frame rate and post processing issues.. So most companies will lower resolution to, a still clean looking, 720p just to make sure that the frame rate and MSAA or quincunx FSAA that alot of sony's studios use remains steady... Quincunx does a better jo...
Seriously do you think that microsoft can make a new format to compete with blu ray by the next generation? Blu-ray sales have increased year over year.. For example blu-ray sales in 2010 are up almost 15% over 2009 which was up nearly 10% over 2008 and soo on.. Blu-ray will be the accepted format by the time the next xbox is here and trying to tackle an already embedded hd format is suicide.. Microsoft needs to swallow their pride and allow blu-ray as their format of choice.. In all honesty ...
Yes having the hd-dvd drive integrated would have made hd-dvd more viable but at the same time the cost of the console would have been comparable to the launch price of the ps3.. Think about it a hd-dvd drive was 199 and at the time of launch a 360 was 399 so that would have been... Thats right 600 bucks exactly how much a ps3 cost at launch.. Microsoft was so desperate to beat sony they left the drive out of the system and launched a year earlier.. Given the current state of the "consol...
Grr I hate it when my little brother plays my ps3.. He scatters my cases, leaves discs laying on my tv stand, leaves my console on, and pulls all of the manuals out.. I've banned him from my system but when I'm at work my parents let him go in my room and play it... Very annoying...
No thats just not true.. As I stated above these discs spin at speeds that modern engines turn.. If a little plastic disc can handle 7000+ rpm then sitting idlely in a console is not going to harm them..
Lmao ok if the disc doesn't warp from spinning in a 7200 rpm disc drive then sitting stationary in said drive is the furthest thing from harmful.. These discs are made to take g forces that would kill human beings but somehow they cant "rest" in a system without warping?? lol ok yea that makes sense.. The scratching thing makes sense, electronic components make static electricity and dust clings to that static hence why disc scratch when left in the open.. But blu-ray discs dont...
Umm I have dsl with only a 2 meg connection and I dont encounter lag like that unless i'm playing modern warfare 2, which has the worst server client support of any game i've seen on the ps3...

Damn you're on a roll today! lmao...
LOL winter you made me giggle...
"I don't know of any ps3 exclusive on bluray that can matches Halo3's depth, let alon Reach"
Umm little big planet says hi.. LMAO you are blantantly fanboyish.. Halo 3 has the shalowest and most contrived plot in the history of shooters.. THe only thing, and I mean only thing, that keeps halo viable in terms of sales and reception is the multiplayer.. Thats what bungie does best and why their games sell like crack... Sony's first party studios run circ...
This whole "kinect tracks in 3d" talk is just a defelection from the fact that kinect essentially does the same thing that the eye toy did on the ps2... How many games have you seen that takes advantage of 3d tracking? All 3d tracking does is track your movements through 3d space.. Which means the only thing you can do with kinect is move the 8 or so feet towards your tv before you run out of room.. 3d tracking has no other implementations.. Even move does 3d tracking thanks to the ...
