anh_duong - i am not saying folding is bad
Really and here I though you said that you feel global warming is a bigger issue then cancer and thus recommend people not use their PS3 for folding.
anh_duong - "as a ps3 owner i totally agree with the first part of the above statement.. i actually think global warming is a bigger issue than cancer or other diseases (apologies for sound so harsh but i just think global warming is a bigger issue - i am not saying ...
Yeah we get that you don't get it, especially since you don't even own a PS3. Nice to see the Inquirer who has had some pretty harsh articles on the PS3 can actually admit after getting one and actually using that it thinks its a good system which it is.
You don't like the games or the features then don't buy it. That I get and can appreciate. What I don't get is the need to come into a PS3 only article and express it. I personally don't see a need as of yet to buy a 360 b...
I just find these types of arguements to be silly. Global Warming! Global Warming! How dare anyone use power to help reseach cancer and other diseases! Do they not realize what they are doing?
Funny you don't seem to have a problem with people using power to play Video games, watching TV, or watching movies. How about those big bad surround sound system? Seems if your using power for a luxury like entertainment that's ok but boy use power to help find a cure for cancer well...
Shareholders care about the overall performance of a company. And if you look the share price has gone up over the past 2 years which would be an indication that the shareholders see value in what Sony is doing so this idea that Ken was sacrificed to placate investors is pure speculation and really does not stand up to scrutiny.
As stated, simply having Ken retire does not solve anything. Its what Sony does going forward that matters. Was this not true even if Ken stayed? T...
Ok thanks for the info. I had not read that and I checked to see if anyone had this game listed as a PS3 title, including the offical game site and saw nothing. If it is coming to the PS3 that is good news indeed. I would assume since it was announced so close to release on PC/360 that its going to be awhile for the PS3 version?
P.S. Any links to the actual announcement by the developer?
This should not be listed under PS3 news because it has nothing to do with the PS3.
Definately have to keep my eye on this game. Should be really good with the talent they have lined up to create it.
Ravenator529 - 46.2 - Thats not the point.
The hostility isn't because 360 users want M$ to participate in "Folding at Home".
Its that the PS3 camps are pushing "Folding At Home" as this "look what we can do" feature. And in turn try to make the 360 look inferior.
In turn, the fanboys are out in full force because of how "Folding At Home" is presented.
VirtualGamer - Right and thus is why I said that ...
kewlkat007 - I don't think 360 fans are in anyway upset. We all know they bought their consoles to play VIDEO GAMES, so why get all worked up about this project?
Why would I get that impression?
Dareaver1 - 1.1 - I don't get some of you people!
Even if the 360 can't do folding as fast as a ps3, it can do it faster than a pc, so why not still offer it. I mean they are still allowing the program for pc users, why not offer it for 360 users. If he was really ...
Possibly is not a stupid answer. The reason he said possibly is because a deal would have to be reached between MS and the folding@home project. Right now its not possible at all since MS has expressed no interest at this point in being involved.
He then goes on to state that even if it was it would not be as powerful as the PS3 Cell. Again remember he was asked if the power of the 360 could be useful? So qualifying how useful in the context of what the PS3 brings to the ta...
Wow guys can you get any more out there with some of your comments?
First he never said the 360 could not do folding@home. He said this.
"After being asked if he thought the power of the 360 could be useful, he said: "Possibly, although the cell processor in the PS3 is much more powerful for our calculations than the CPU in the Xbox 360."
Due to how the Cell is designed its better at doing these kind of calculations then the 360 cpu...
This just in from our Tokyo bureau: according to an interview conducted by Japan's Impress, Sony's Ken Kutaragi has gone on record with a "promise" for what he's calling an AV-centric PS3. In other words, audio and video capabilities first, gaming second (if at all), in a device built around the Cell-processor platform. Ken says that the device would certainly be more expensive, reflecting the prices and margins expected on high-end consumer electronic devices such as TVs, Blu-ray p...
It does not go into alot of detail but it definately has peaked my interest in this game even more. With the talent and attitude like this guy has and what he says about Naughty Dog you know this game is going to be something amazing!
For some reason the story does not load it opens a new page and just hangs. Deep you have the actuall URL so I can try that way as I would really like to read this.
EDIT: Ok managed to get there by just going to 3dtotal.com. Now all links work, strange..anyway off to read.
Am I the only one that's disappointed in the graphics for this game? For games that are suppost to take advantage of next gen systems I don't really see any kind of major jump in graphics for this game compared to what was on the Xbox and PS2. I am glad to see EA moved this to a different studio to maybe give it some fresh legs but still I just feel that for being on the 360 and PS3 we should see better graphics then we are. Compared to other games designed to take advantage of the next ge...
Whats to spin?
Here is what Jaffe posted over a NeoGAF
Hey guys...Sony was kinda annoyed that I claimed 5/3 as release date as it was never official. The game got kicked out of format as two very key bugs were found at the last second. Fixing those allowed us time to go back in and fix the issue (or what we think is the issue) that IGN had with the magnet. We are back in format q/a at the moment and we'd all be stunned if it did not sail thru...but we've learned ...
Totally agree 100%
Yes Deep your correct. However most people consider 3D gaming to be the ability to move your character around in a virtual 3D world regardless of the fact your viewing it on a 2D TV screen. Now add in the ability to interact and play that character without using a controller via the Playstation Eye and to me that would be adding another dimension to gaming that was not there before and thus could be considered 4D. Is it technically correct? Nope, but I can totally see how a person could t...
I agree Deep. The potential is awesome to do alot of things that we have not been able to do thus far. As you suggested in another post perhaps this is what Ken was refering to when he said 4D.
I have had no problems using a usb headset but have never tried with a Bluetooth.
On another subject I read there was an update for Motorstorm is it something that you have to download and install or does it do it automatically?
