Be careful, this is not a place for logic and reason. And you certainly do not want to make sense.
You have to remember a few things...
This site seems to have a large population of ADD afflicted children, who lack any sort of reading comprehension. They cannot seem to understand that other models are available, or rather just ignore the facts in order to pretend that there is some issue.
If you want the BC, spend the extra few dollars for that model, otherwise its obviously not important enough. Hey, and if you cannot afford an extra $100, then you probably...
This actually yields 2 stimulated paths to sell the ps3, since both models allow for a more economical entry point.
This brings a ton of new customers. One of those customer paths, has no idea or concerns about backward compatibility. The shear price point makes for an aggressive sale. They are interested in the next gen, and the coveted Playstation. This handles all new users, and those who wish to save even more money.
For the other customer path, who is int...

This is really looking good. The forest is so lush... The lighting is amazing... some of the palms looks like you can see sub surface lighting... the forest is full of life...
Smoke effects are sexy as well...

They are just explaining why its a "good thing" in this article... and why the lack of anti aliasing is good...
This was all born out of the Neogaf post... Most of the developers and graphics people consider this unacceptable... along with the smug response...
I personally only slightly care, although I do like to keep up with the technology discussions...
1) If you do not know the power of a terminal, and a shell, then it means nothing to you.
2) In the UNIX or Linux world, we jumpstart or kickstart. From bare metal to everything installed. Also, no registry...
3) Not cut and paste with keys... In Xwindows (the UNIX/Linux window standard) you just roll your mouse over text, click, then move the mouse wherever you want the text to go, and click the middle mouse button. No keyboards are involved in the proc...
Its all about what you are used to... If you started with Windows, and are used to the interface, then you probably will never change.
FYI...
I can read/write Word docs, pdfs, xml etc in OpenOffice.
I can have an assortment of mail applications, but if you want web email, google is superior to hotmail.
Firefox is more stable, and has more extensions available that IE.

"We will in the next few weeks.
Halo 3 will only deserve a super high score if
1) it beats q1,2,3 in deathmatch
2) it beats q2 and team fortress in ctf "
Those are fighting words for a hardcore q1 and q2 ctf player... A console game can be good, but old school mouse/keyboard is hard to beat. And crap, w/o a grapple hook, it just plain isn't gonna happen.
Maybe I am just old... but nothing quite compares to q1ctf or q2ctf...

so...
#1) The supposed "padding" that you talk about is 420MB. That's 420 Mega Bytes.
#2) You do not even know what the supposed "padding" files are for:
5987712,>:\PS3_GAME\USRDIR \packed\movies\muxed\ntsc\auto _ generated_padding_20.bin
#2.a) Do not pretend that you know what these files are used for.
#3) Bluray has a constant read speed. You could argue about spindle seek speed, and location of ...
That better not be a Bridget...
You did see the title of this article...
"Master Chief teabags PS3, robs Halo 3 at gunpoint"
How could any gaming human NOT click this? TEABAGS... its actually mentions tea bagging in the title... wow...
Honestly, it is kinda retarded... but he's tea bagging... so... I can't look away...
It's all good... Someone will be dress like a Killzone character and give a bunch of 360's a dirty sanchez...
LOL......
Very realistic graphics... strange game play tho...
:P
That's looking nice...
The multiplayer will be fun...
"Don't pretend that you know more about Japan than Microsoft analysts just because you spent a week here in Akiba masturbating over the maid costumes."
o_O
O_o
Are you allowed to do that? Are there masturbation bars in Japan? :P
Jusk kidding...
I agree with the points that you made...
One of the major reasons for the delay has more to do with Lawyers than readiness. As a user of HOME for quite a while, I can assure you that it is an open environment. People say and do what they want, and the plan is to allow user content uploading and sharing. Along with the HOME environment, there is a web based environment that hooks into your HOME space.
There is a lot of legal to deal with as far as the content goes. We have age inappropriate content, copywritten con...

I would consider it a great game.
The visuals are incredible, and the music is just superb. Very trippy... a stoner would LOVE this game... a musician would love this game...
I really enjoy the way the music changes interactively with you... the guitar riffs straight up rock, and it ebbs and flows as you cause chain reactions.
Impressed with this one...
and its cheap...
