word. boooo!
The PS3 will crush all other consoles its only a matter of time. I got the muthafucking 60GB PS3 and Motorstorm and Resistance: FOM and 2 controllers for $660 Australian Dollars when I cashed in my PSP. I bought Heavenly Sword too but I returned it cus I decided to get Ghost Recon instead. That game HAZE will shit all over Halo 3.

How is the ps3 gonna crush anything (unless you meant literally, thing is fucking huge) with no games worth giving a fuck about coming out? Even if i gave a fuck about metal gear solid (which i dont) i sure as fuck wont be paying that kind of money for 1 game. I bring up MGS because its the 1 and only game anybody could possibly get exicted about for the ps3. 360 already has tons more great games, and will continue to add to the list.

Aww come now. There are less games right now, but do you really think the situation is going to stay that way? Last time I checked the prices were pretty much the same between xbox and ps next gen games anyway. Its not about quantity son, its quality and the Ps3 is way more powerful! Anyway I dont want to get into a nerdlinger war of words over which console is better, im just happy i got enough spare time to play games.

The power ofthe console means nothing. Most games that come out for the 360 and ps3 end up looking better for the 360 because the ps3 is so hard to develop for. 360 destroys ps3 in quality games, online service, and pretty much everything else you can think of. If you like ps3, thats fine, just don't say retarded shit.

Software sells hardware. Not the other way around.
So to me that means that I get a Wii for the Nintendo exclusive titles (just like I always got every Nintendo console - except the newer handhelds - since the NES) and the rest will be played on PC which shits on XBox and PS3 anyways.

PS3>>>360 face it

We'll see better games once developers master the ps3, didn't they have problems developing games for both the ps1 & ps2 in the early stages too?

ROFL
Seriously, it seems as if heīs just joking about his persona and acting and blabbla but if not I really hope he is on drugs or else it would be best for him to commit suicide. If I was Sony I would be ashamed and immediatly stop all PS3 production to prevent something like that happen in the future. :D

xbox got more games but only ps3 deliver real hd 1080p rendering games. I'm more into shooters than manga games so the xbox is the best console, i'd like to own both though.

The 360 elite is capable of 1080p..

yup this is true so is the Halo 3 special edition console, that's why i bought it. My lil brother now has the white one and i have the Halo edition. Both Halo and elite come with HDMI outputs.

what is elite and halo version about? I'm not too technical in xbox 360.

Halo 3 has quickly come under fire for disc-read errors and scratched discs, but now some tech heads on the Beyond 3D forums have found what they believe to be evidence that the quintessential game of Microsoft's 'all games in HD' console runs natively at a paltry 640p -- not 720p, not HD* -- and then upscales.
How did they come to this conclusion, you ask? By counting pixels. (Is this what we've come to as gaming enthusiasts -- measuring a game's visual fidelity with spyglass in hand?) ... Remember when we just played games?
Still, if true, Halo 3 would not be the first Xbox 360 game to compromise resolution for performance. Perfect Dark Zero also runs at 640p, and it's well known that Bizarre Creations dropped Project Gotham Racing 3 even lower, to just 600p, in order to achieve an acceptable frame rate. But this is Halo 3, and if you press your ear to the screen you can already hear the snarling internet mobs gathering up their pitchforks and nooses.
[*Note: We define "HD" as a resolution no less than 1280x720 pixels. According to the source, Halo 3 has a native resolution of 1138x640 pixels.]
its not real hd cuz the xbox 360 isn't powerfull enough, the games would suffer such definition.
on another note, the premium version of the console also comes with the hdmi output
-

lol @ saying the 360 isnt powerful enough for HD, common now

depends on the game you play, i was playing splinter cell double agent the other day and i was noticing a lot of fall in the frame rates
edit : i found this :
After the game was released, speculations arose that Halo 3 did not natively render at true HD resolution (at least 720 lines of vertical resolution). In a Bungie Weekly Update, it was confirmed that the game was rendered at 1152Ũ640 resolution instead of the usual 1280Ũ720 (HD) resolution that most Xbox 360 games use.[38] The choice for this design was conscious on Bungie's part, due to the fact that Halo 3 uses two frame buffers instead of the usual one, and that this choice would allow Bungie to preserve as much as the dynamic range as possible for the game's lighting, as well as maintaining a smooth frame rate. The picture could be upscaled all the way up to 1080p by the Xbox 360.

Its really disappointing to see how much emphasis people put on graphics and the way a game looks these days. If the gameplay is great, i dont give a fuck if the game looks like a n64 game, i'll still play it.

word, thats why i love the virtual console for the wii 8)

The 360 is capable of 1080p, but only one game has actually been that natively with no problems, which was Virtua Tennis 3. The latest NBA Street can be 1080p, but the framerate drops to 30fps instead of 60fps if you move it up from 720p.
The Playstation 3 has a lot more games that are 1080p natively, but even still, most of the first and second generation games are only likely to be 720p, as developers do not yet have enough knowledge of the system to get their games running acceptably at 1080p. If Gran Turismo 5: Prologue does turn out to be 1080p at 60fps, looking spectacular, then that will obviously set the benchmark for future titles.

thx for clearing thid

Theres no competition between both of them and PC games. PC wins any day.

If all you want to play is sterile western developed games and worry about having to update your setup every six months to play the latest games. I much prefer the variety of games and the standardised experience that console gaming affords.

Fair enough.

just been looking at this: List of released and scheduled PS3 games-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_3_games
So much crazy shit scheduled for 2008! I hope I can still maintain some element of a life with all these mad titles next year!

I agree with dopewhiterapper because thatīs how I did it for the last ~10 years: Mostly playing on PC and for the rest I got myself a Nintendo console. Seriously, every PC shooter (for example) shits on a console shooter. Mouse + Keyboard is so much better than ANY console controls.
Besides that, I can see your point in the cost of a "state of the art" pc but honestly, you are obviously using a pc to visit this site. Why not invest a little more and make your pc a gaming machine? You can still use your pc for all your daily needs. Word, INet etc...
I know the benefits of a console. To me a console is about playing with your friends and for that purpose itīs the best thing you can get. You can take your console to a friendīs place and hook it up there and be ready to play in a minute. To me, though, there are only so much games that are worth to get on a console cause the rest I play on pc. In much better resolution, with much better controls and more options to customize stuff. I mean, online gaming only became popular on consoles like a few years ago. Iīve been playing online on pc since 2000? And thatīs only because I got internet that "late."
I donīt mean to badmouth consoles, cause they are great, but to me a pc wins everyday. I only get the Nintendo consoles because of the Nintendo exclusives. Mario, Zelda, Metroid and so on.

^
word. I get your perspective. PCs can have the ability to have better graphics, etc.
But the new generation of consoles got very good graphics, power, etc compared to a PC, they are very close to a good PC.
Also its a different thing to play your console, I go mine hooked up to the surround sound in the living room wit my muthafucking lazy boy sofas, wit the wireless controller I dont even have to get up to turn it on or nothing! its on some different shit to sitting at a desk with a PC.

Good point.
I know that the new generation of consoles (PS3 and XBox360) have kickass graphics on a HD screen but me, for example, I donīt have a HD screen (and Iīm not planning to buy one in the next time.) To me itīs just strange to spend 700(?) dollars on a PS3 when you can upgrade your pc to a monster gaming machine with that money. I am "constantly" upgrading my system step by step (ok, it has been ~ 2 years since I upgraded a SINGLE part in my system - cause I lack the money- but I did in the past) so of course you are spending more money with having a pc but at the same time you got yourself the real deal.
I understand the comfort factor of sitting on your couch and playing but donīt get it wrong. Not everyone has their pc sitting on a desk with just a stereo system. I for myself just use shitty stereo speakers but my best friend got his pc hooked up to a 5.1 system and is playing on a beamer. THAT is pimp (but I have to agree, it costs a shitload.)

i agree that the pc is the best machine for shooters, i wouldn't have bought a xbox in the first place if i had 1000$ to spend on a pc every 2 years. but i'm not that rich, and i really enjoy the xbox for the other types of games like sports and gaming. My friend got himself a keyboard and a mouse for his xbox i will try it in the next few days
