In the situation that Sony is in with their PS3, its simply just a wait for the new future updates come on by, then people will see the true functionality of the PS3 and what it is really capable of doing. Every console will grow stronger, but in the end, sony's PS3 will come out the winner followed by Nintendo's Wii and with Microsoft's Xbox360.
The only real reason they say that there is room for both format is because HD DVD knows that they are going to loose the war against Blu-Ray and now they are trying to make a draw between both formats. People only want one format, they are not going to want to have to pick between one or the other. What is going to happen when this movie you really wanted to see comes out only on HD DVD and you own a Blu-Ray player, your pretty much out of luck.
If they get ride of the "bunny jumpers" then gaming would be great! More games need a cover system like Rainbow 6: Vegas and Gears of War have! If the designers could master this in Call of Duty 4, people will be willing to pay the money to play a great game that isn't destroyed by gamers that do cheap kills, it makes the game boring! So I totaly agree with you.
The politics in all of this are correct, Sony would have done the same thing if they where in the same position the church is in now. I would expect nothing less from Sony but to simply cooperate, because they should have gotten permission from the church and from England in the first place, I hate to say it, but its true. But in the end, Sony will probaly end up paying some large amount of money so they can keep us gamers happy.
The Wii is a good console, but the graphics are last generation, but the game play is what Nintendo is going for with the Wii and they seem to have it right on the spot. But the Wii lacks good games! I waited in line for the Wii only to find out that it would disappoint in the end because it just doesn't have the features that I want and need, like the online play.
So just a little tip, if you where ready to spend the 250$ on a Wii, I would think about adding a little more to ...
If you consider the fact that the PS3 came out a year after the Xbox360 did, and if the PS3 sales keep going like they are now, at this time next year the PS3 will have sold more consoles then the Xbox360 did in the same time period!
I agree on this! Sony is all about quality and in the end Sony is the one thats going to come back out a winner out of all of this! They still have minor things they have to change here and there (like the fact that you can't listen to music while playing a game, having voice chat during play and being able to read messages that have been sent too you without closing the game just for a simple "Hello" from a friend), but once all of this fixed up and ready to go with the next couple...
Well I might as well start now for the comments entry !
looking forward to many more post in the future and good luck to everyone that enters !
PS3 name "CodedFox" add me up
