I do wish somebody would release a game that took the PS3 to its full potential though.

Seems like Sony is moving in the right direction now, I may have to get myself a PS3 again and stop playing Xbox so much.

The only thing the 360 has over the PS3 in my opinion is a better online infrastructure and lower price.
That said, I still think the PS3 is a superior piece of hardware, and the bigger price is well worth it in my eyes.
If only game designers would get off their arses and start designing PS3 games properly, instead of just doing dodgy ports from the 360.

If the PS3 did ave backwards compatibility it would most likely be better than the 360 because there are hundreds of PS2 games and many people had a PS2. Therefore people who own a PS2 would be more inclined o buy a PS3 if it had backwards compatibility.

But really, do you want to be playing PS2 games on your hi-def next gen gaming console ?

Personally, im glad they dont have PS2 support, it means i dont have old games lying around.

I do wish somebody would release a game that took the PS3 to its full potential though !

And also I’ve figured out that alot of forums are only sayin that the 40GB does not support PS2 Compatibility (True!) what is irritating me here that no 1 till now also said that it also doesn’t support SACD Support and FlashCard Reading rather than the PS2 Compatibility, you guys are only clever in saying PS2 Compatibility, which means you always have to say FlashCard Reading and SACD Support, like I’m only 13 Years old comeon!, and I still know alot of things ya didn’t hear of!, almost every 1 knows bout the Blu-Ray Crap, thats shit!, I only want ya guys to start sayin these ( That’s whats missing.) Also that sad thing is that alot of people are dumb coz they got the 40GB instead of waiting till the New 120GB or maybe the 160GB (Both rumoured that there gonna get launched sometime soon) which will have all its specs back to it ( PS2 Compatibilty, Flash Card Reading, SACD Support), 40GB’s CRAP and the other 80GB Model not the NTSC 1.

Elders please learn of the youngsters! xP

Thanks,

I wish the Xbox 360 had Blue Ray. I think this is the only thing that sets the two console apart.

Blu-ray is far too dependent on the PS3.
It was a very double-edged tactic, sure it got a quick win in the little skirmish with HD DVD – but it has done the format no favours in the real war with DVD.
Because of this it is all but invisible to the real a/v mass-market……and at the current Blu-ray prices (verses upscaling DVD players) maybe that’s no bad thing.

If the public keep on saying the (enormous) premium Blu-ray demands over upscaled DVD just isn’t worth it then Blu-ray will be just as still-born as HD DVD.

Maybe if or when they get Blu-ray players down to $100 – fat chance, we all know that is many years off.

Meantime the HD TV services get better and better anmd the internet infra-structure gets faster and faster.

In any event Blu-ray cannot simply become ‘the next DVD’ cos that ship has sailed and that market is now so fragmented.

TBH I think both sides were extremely disappointed at the public’s total lack of interest in high def discs.
They will buy DVRs and an HD TV service, but that’s not exactly a surprise (movies and sports in HD on several channels every day for the price of 1 or 2 Blu-ray movies a month).

The smartest move right now is to hoover up a decent HD DVD collection for relative pennies and sit it all out for a few years.

Watching how the industry is openly talking about killing off DVD early and how they conspired to kill off HD DVD I wouldn’t be surprised if they kill Blu-ray early too – especially now that every Blu-ray movie made to date is available as a pefect straight rip to download now that their supposedly ‘superior’ security protection
(ie an expensive annoying gravy-train that never did anything but annoy customers and never once stopped a real commercial pirate)
BD+ has been broken.

I personally now take the view that the PS3 is a great and still cheapest (last time I looked) Blu-Ray player on the market with the added bonus it can play some games and also make for a great Folding@Home machine if you’re interested in that too.
