The PS3 Is Here.

[flcloutlaw]

Nintendo used to to greater than all gaming companies but there falling behind....i mean DS sucks, the only fun game on it is wario ware touched and obviously mario DS is good because Mario 64 owned. i must say N64 and models before that were AMAZING!! and gba's sucked...gba with the backlight was good. but off of nintendo. SONY WILL ALWAYS AND FOREVER BE 10 X BETTER THAN ANY MICROSOFT PORDUCT!!! and the controllers for the PS3 are just horrible...the handles on them are way to big, sony is trying to hard to make them "sleak". If i do get PS3 ill prolly end up usen my PS2 controllers because they just seem more conveinent. XBox 360 looks really bad...good graphics but i still DESPISE XBox controllers. ulch i think we should all decide on the perfect controller design and send it to all gaming company's i say the PS2 controllers are the best who agrees?

SHUT THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW

WE WILL HAVE NO GODAMN FANBOYISM IN THIS THREAD

IF YOU WANT TO MAKE A FANBOY THREAD, GO MAKE A THREAD TITLED "WHAT DO U THINK WILL B TEH BEST LOL", WHEREIN I WILL PROMPTLY FLAME YOU

As for the PS3. The design is actually quite sexy- I like it. I'm also liking the Wi-Fi compatibility with PSPs- I can see some real options opening up with that. The controller design makes me cry, though. That thing looks damn uncomfortable. I would be perfectly happy just using another iteration of the Dualshock- seriously, they're some of the best controllers ever made.

Re: RE: The PS3 Is Here.

It's also in silver and black Jewpin so don't worry. And it could change like the PSP did.

Cool! Now it's even more like the George Foreman grill!



I still dont like the design. It's like they gave their PStwo a helmet. Eh, but it isnt how good the actual console itself looks, it's how good the games are. It's just kind of a disappointment, the PSP was so beautiful, perhaps they used all their design talent designing the PSP.

[magister_negi_magi]

Blargherness was right, it looks a lot like a scanner...Does anybody have any idea how much these next-gen systems will cost?

[Saturos]

For X-Box 360 and PS3, my guess would be upwards of $300, while Nintendo's next system will probably end up around $250. Cheaper, like always.

Don't quote me on this.

PS: I really do hope that isn't the final design for the controllers.

Hey look on the bright side for the controllers: If you ever got mad at a game and hurled your controller, it would come flying right back to you.

[Kenzya]

Controller design blows and the system design blows. Who likes rounded consoles anyway? They've also gone in an almost completely different direction of design than with the PSP.. Blah..

This thing better perform better than it looks.

lol.

Also, Shox, I've read that tere will probably be 1 plug in controller socket in the back. I'm not sure if I read this for the 360 or PS3...but that's what I read, and then maybe dualshock would be possible.

RE: Re: RE: The PS3 Is Here.

That is one ugly console, not buying it most likely.

RE: Re: RE: The PS3 Is Here.

It looks a lot better in Black. I think my initial reaction to the design was more shock than anything else. It looks nothing like any sony product I have ever seen...but it really isnt that bad.

[evilbutterfly]

RE: Re: RE: The PS3 Is Here.

First reaction = OMFGOSH IT'S WHITE WTF!?!?
*clicks picture for a better view*
Second reaction = Whew, it comes in black, too.

I agree that the roundness is not good. Not because of how it looks, but because I can't stack stuff on it and whatnot. Oh well though, I guess I shouldn't be stacking stuff on top of my consoles anyway. =P

And as far as the controller goes....are you guys really not even seeing that it is another iteration of the dual shock? The bars come down way further, yeah, but it's basically the same thing. Really, I'd have to see it in person and get my hands on it before I could judge it.

Oh, and am I the only one who finds it hilarious that people are already arguing over these things and stuff isn't even completely finalized? I mean, they wouldn't even need to show the PS3, just announce that it exists, and everybody would instantly be like "hell yeah PS3 rocks it's so much better than X-Box 360!" and then everybody else would be like "oh hell no X-Box 1 is better than PS3!" etc etc etc. Silly fanboys.

RE: Re: RE: The PS3 Is Here.

It's too bad it's not exactly an original design, the controllers that is. Well, I mean.. they look like evry other generic/shitty PS2/PC controller. You think they would move forward in comfortability rather than backwards.

Controllers should be made more like the Gamecube controller (grooved) rather than the NES controller.

Well Jewpin, if you had G4TechTv, They broadcasted most of the 2 hour Sony conferance on Tv. The proucers of the PS3 had plenty of technical demos to show the power of the PS3. Let's just say after seeing the ducks, the explosion, the real-time Unreal 3 engine, the Cell powered Leaf-Cyclone demo, and a completely remade opening scene for FFVII, I'm ready to believe the PS3 will be the most powerful Next-Gen console at the moment.

Let me explain some of the technical demos by the way. For example, thier was the Leaf Cyclone demo which used only the power of the Cell processer. There was a large field with hundreds of thousands of leaves on it. There were three tornadoes spinning around the fiel picking up leaves as it went. No impressive right? Wrong. Each cyclone was rendered only with the cell processer, and the cell processer is so powerful every single leaf in the demo could have it's own audio channel.
