"Microsoft’s move to reveal the 360 so early was based entirely on the fact that Sony’s huge head-start with the PS2 console had sealed their place as industry leader. This time, Microsoft was determined to become industry leaders in precisely the same way "

"The ability to download updates for games puts a whole new spin on this entire issue, as it allows developers to fix things after release as they have done for years with PC titles.

i can see some point to this article. And it might happen actually.

But i think though that because the ps3 has a blu-ray player as standard, thats gonna put blu-ray players in the homes of millions anyway. And with the increase of HDTVs being bought, at least there's a lifeline (PS3) through the whole blu-ray fight. If people already have a blu-ray player, they are not gonna buy a HD-DVD player. And therefore will buy blu-ray movies and not HD-DVD.

But the futur...

oh would you stop the bashing of the ps3?

"Man that's about the worst game on this list and RR7 will be a (launch title for PS3 LOL)"

Well, maybe it was the worst game on the list, but Ridge Racer 6 was a launch title for the Xbox 360.

Just about every console that's been released has had a ridge racer game as a launch title. So why is it suddenly bad that it's a ps3 launch title?

There's no point to your stupid fanboy comm...

ahahaha oh

well, i guess its one way of kick-starting some comments. haha, thanking yourself for the info. nice one, made me laugh

yes, that's an interesting arguement you raise.....very....interesting

and when i say interestng, i mean 'pile of crap'

And don't start on DJ you fool. He's one of the VERY few people i respect on this site. Mainly because he brings up relevant comments that make alot of sense. But he also doesn't ALWAYS stick up for the PS3. Because when there are obviously crap things sony has done, he recognises them and brings them up. Unlike you, you two-faced b@stard....

a racing game that was on 2 discs?

Gran Turismo 2

That game was so big that it needed one disc for the Gran Turismo mode, and one disc for the arcade mode. And there wasnt a single piece of cgi in that game

All bluray does is give developers freedom, with no restrictions at all = possibility of better games. Bluray is better than dvd in every way for gaming. Its a simple concept and i dont know why i have to explain it to you bLaDEstard

bLaDEstard listen, i know games like FF and MGS had multiple discs on the psone. But for example, if EACH of those discs were blu-ray, then EACH disc would be able to hold more detail, content etc. on them. And whats more, it would all be able to fit on one disc.

Besides not every game is suited to multiple discs. Imagine if in burnout, you had to change disc whenever you raced in another part of the world

If you're happy with dvd still then, lol fine

cos this is something you need to understand.

Every playstation gamer who is aiming to purchase a ps3 wants blu-ray kept in as standard

Every 360 fanboy wants the blu-ray taken out of the ps3 for whatever reasons.

Whats more, since being on this site, every 360 fanboy seems to think DVD is the better format for gaming

WHAT...THE...F**K...

if you guys are content with dvd still, then lol fine

but come nov...

the dreamcast looks better than all the next-gen consoles? WHAT?!

ALL the next-gen consoles to me are the best looking consoles ever designed. They all look great

I think the designers of the dreamcasts were a bit too influenced by the sony success, because it looks exactly like a slightly stretched playstation 1

i dont think the ps3 was late at all. The extra time allowed the ps3 to have the bluray included, games to be improved and more launch games to be released. And i dont think anyones complaining about the delay now,since we got like 3 months left.

Besides,if the ps3 is late,then so is the wii. Sony and Nintendo must have thought this was the best time to release the consoles

personally i think the 360 was launched too soon. You can bet the 360 wud hav used HD DVD ...

why are you talking to me?

and actually, i think the mylo wont be successful and there's alot of reasons for that. How's your zune? A little late to the party wasn't it?

yeah, with my original xbox, cos it had a flat top, i used to rest my tv on top of my xbox. But i can't really do that with the ps3's curved top lol

7156d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

and im not a 360 fanboy. Im a playstation fanboy. lol. I have little to any respect for microsoft and i think they make crap products. Im a playstation gamer through and through

I just posted this article because i post whatever article, im not biased when it comes to news. And it was a good chance to use that picture of that butt-ugly xbox on a rocket-pad mover vehicle

7156d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

yeah but like i said before,

the ps3 is big, but looks stylish
the xbox was big, and it was a black box. About the least stylish thing in the world. And then the original xbox controller. Cough, a big circle, with an 'X' icon that took up a 1/3 of the controller

At least sony's always made good looking products, even if it is big. And yes, it does more things then the 360

7156d ago 1 agree5 disagreeView comment

my opinion:

although the ps3 is the same size as the original xbox, i think it looks alot nicer. I like the curved stylings of the ps3. It took a bit more design thought in it, then just designing a big, black box with an 'X' on top of it. And then giving it an almost circular controller. The original xbox was a freakin geometric nightmare

haha, why is it i hear so often the words, 'xbox' and 'burning house' in the same sentance so often? ahaha. So this time it wasn't the console overheating?

7156d ago 0 agree0 disagreeView comment

Yeah, how many comments do you reckon this article will get? I'm thinking maybe 100-150. Remember that time the motorcross article got 1000+ comments? geez

I actually think this is a really great article and its really good to see everything shown laid out flat for once.

But my god, the ps2 is such a great console! Freakin hell, 5277 games published for it? When i see the hard-core facts, it's so easy to see how the ps2 absolutly abolished the competition
