Yep, the new specs on Newegg only lists the following now:
"
PLAYSTATION 3 includes:
PlayStation 3 Console
Internal 40 GB HDD
Built-in Blu-ray player
SIXAXIS wireless controller
Power Cord
AV cable
"
Especially if you keep in mind the Yakuza 3 bundle they have there.
I prefer the disc version; same reason I'll always prefer Blu Ray to DLC.
I need a normal on-road racing game this year, and there's nothing like GT5 right now. Between this and NFS Carbon, it's definitely GT5 Prologue.
In an interview they announced that they were able to add a bunch of new modes and cars in between the time between the NA and JP releases. You can find it all at gametrailers.
I liked a few parts of what the guy wrote:
"The Wii isn't a full upgrade of all the technologies in the GameCube, in fact, it's almost identical except for a few upgrades."
It looks like Sony thought things through.
So I basically have to decide between a 360 and a PC upgrade sooner or later. I would lean towards the PC, except I just hate the Vista only requirements on so many of the new games, yet they perform worse on Vista or not at all due to driver issues.
I did buy the PS3 collector's edition when it dropped to $30 on Amazon.
Well if you ignore the fact that January didn't even feature any of the PS3's real 2008 lineup, then yeah that sure was a nice fluke.
And you really should stop trying to relate Sony and the PS3 to Japanese/Asian stereotypes. Being one myself, it's kind of offensive; there are better ways to support the 360.
Well, the preview is biased depending on whose writing it up and they probably often misjudge the impact of certain titles.
I just don't get how according to its software tracking, the PS2 doubled and the PS3 halved just like that. I trust its hardware sales much, much more than its software section.
Is owning a 360 a fad? Why do they sell?
I guess 360 is in three different markets really. Add-on market, subscription market, and game market. I don't know who it is doing any good.
Sorry, I couldn't resist.
(Notice I did not to mention certain gray markets).
Always pointing to the US. Just be happy about the headstart the 360 had by ditching the Xbox early, it gave it a nice selection of exclusives at a price. But now its the PS3's turn to have the better lineup.
If you just look at the hardware launch chart, you see how the curve is now dramatically in favor of the PS3 despite a poor launch.
For once I have to agree, I thought the article was going to be a guide about tweaking and doing stuff with your PS3. Such as watching DivX/MP4 movies from USB HDD, Remote Play on PSP, etc.
He's talking automanagement of a programmer's resources.
If you think about Java, most resources are automatically managed by the Java Virtual Machine, such as garbage collection and etc. It makes life a lot easier since you don't have to worry so much about memory leakage.
When it comes to C/C++, you have much more control over this matter. The malloc() function is used for dynamic memory allocation in which you can create an array of a fixed type and size. It basic...
Well, there's enough JRPG developers that keep trying new things. Level 5 changes their gameplay mechanics with every new release. They have not released a sequel yet, but I'm hoping for Rogue Galaxy 2 on the PS3.
FF 8 was the best for me, followed by 7, 10, and 12.
But can it be as massive as the original Disgaea series? I hope they don't scale it down.
Yeah, she would make a really awesome main character.
The FF series set the standard for all other JRPGs. The newest release should be nothing less than epic.
I really wouldn't know, none of my Sony electronics ever needed customer service support...
