More Reason's why Nintendo shits on sony and microsoft

[Trauma-san]

You totally missed my point, and besides, I said 95 percent, bitch.  Of Course Mario & Zelda are in the top 5% of Video Games.  Hey, do me a favor: Stay the fuck out of threads I reply to, and get off my nuts.

Just because I humorously reply to your absurd claims does not mean I'm on your nuts. You may have said 95% of games, but that wasn't the point I was making. At 6 years old I liked Gyromite better than chess, (and that game sucks), because I was young. Kids don't like videogames more than chess because of advertising dollars. They like them better because they're aimed at kids. Chess is not. If you replace chess with comic books then you'd have a logical argument.

fuck nentendo, microsoft- stick to windows. its all about sony playstation 3

And let's not forget..
BLU-RAY discs.. PS3 will have Blu-ray discs, which can hold 25GB on a single layer disc, and 50GB on a dual layer..
Now THAT'S more than enough space for crazy soundtracks, High-Definition gfx, and HD movies, extras, trailers, demos, etc.

X-Box will use 9GB dual layer DVD's, it might be enough today, but I can picture Blu-Ray having a big ass advantage in 2-3 years when Blu-Ray takes gradually over for DVD, and BR-players become common. If BR really becomes successful and gets inc. in PC's, with poss. for burning BR on your comp, then it's game over.

  honestly....how much do you think people are willing to put on a blu ray disc? we already know musicians can for about 400 songs in mp3 format on a cd but they will never even use that... to think a movie needs 50 gb is crazy

and honestly i used to like chess when i was in middle school but i've found games that were alot better and had more strategy than chess

take Worms world party for example...

you might like this game trauma.... the graphics are only adequate but the gameplay lasts forever.... i had a whole US Naval ship addicted to this game and was even able to talk to the LAN administrator to put this game on the LAN so all can play on the ship

I still play my PS2 way more than my Lame Cube.

Bill Gates, XX years ago: "15MB should be enough for everybody to last forever."
Trust me when I say that 20+ GB will be needed in future discs, if you're American you should know about a little thing called HD-TV...
DVD's today are compressed, the future craves big ass TV's with high fucking definition, and that demands space.

but there's two other technologies that are similar/better than blu ray and sony usually has a habit of making useless technology... minidisc, a certain type of dvd r disc, umd....

anyways, the need for a new type of media is stupid right now... just like how musicians don't even use up all of a cd, videogame makers don't use up a dvd.... and rarely does a movie need more than one disc unless you want 5 different versions of the director saying stupid shit about his movie

[Thirteen]

plus you should look at more of the new technology taht's coming out instead of hopping on a bandwagon Jome...

Mpeg 4 format will allow compression of a HD movie to fit on a dual layered DVD

this one company has designed a hybrid of dvd with dvd on one said and HD dvd capabilities on the other, without the need for a new player

then you have Blu ray which is only backed by Sony, disney and Fox while...

HD DVD is backed by most of the other movie studios such as Paramount, Universal, New Line and Warner Bros... both of these formats will require new players and neither will be compatible with each other but they will be backwards compatible for regular dvds

Finally Jome....since you think bigger is better you should check out HVD being developed in japan... these disc are the same size of a dvd but can hold 100 Gb to 1 Tb of data and will be availible in 2007

but anyways...games have yet to surpass the DVD phase and movies have no need yet to pass the DVD either, it's just companies want you to buy the latest thing that they tell you is the best... all i know is with Blu ray players selling in Japan for over $2,000, the price tag on the PS3 won't be pretty

[doubletrouble™]

Since tha PS2 was released people have been anticipating tha PS3...........i wanted a PS2 but i didn't get one i'll wait for tha PS3 i'm sure that shit will be real, real, real expensive

he's just saying it's really popular around here.... but it really isn't... i don't know too many people that really care about HD... My cable provider sends most of the channels in HD but i just don't watch that much TV to run out and get an HD TV

We all know that Blu-Ray will become mainstream, and priced about the same as DVD is now, DVD was pricey as fuck back then too..
With Sony, MS, etc. behind it, and PS3 in full effect, BR will become cheaper and cheaper.
Btw, Compression means that you're taking away quality, that will never be the best solution: The more compression, the worse quality.

And nobody is jumping on any bandwagon, it's just that having 25/50GB discs on hand is a helluva stronger card than dual-layer DVD..
HD-TV is coming more and more, people want better pictures, bigger TV's, and better sound.
Dunno if it's the poor American economy that keeps people from buying HD-TV's, but it's coming everywhere..., slow but steady.

it's not the economy, no one sees the use of it... it's pretty much just being forced upon the public, i honestly don't know a single person thats craving HD everything

the only thing taht sucks is this batter between HD DVD and Blu Ray... if you look at the two sides, they are pretty evenly matched moneywise... i for one am not in the rush to go out and buy a blu ray disc player or a hd dvd player only to find out that it's on the losing side
