Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Oh my. "Next gen pricing" is really ridiculous. It happened with the N64/PS age and unfortunately it's happening again =/

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

What grandia's hidden message was:

THE EXECUTIVES OF SONY ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION ARE TELLING US FACTS ABOUT THEIR UPCOMING CONSOLE.

This isn't speculation. Why would we want to wait until the release day when the information is ALREADY AVAILABLE.

The only thing we'll have to wait for release day to find out is to see how people react to their purchase.

You mean how pissed off they'll be when their $600+ console dies almost immediately, rendering their $70+ games worthless until they drop another $600+ bones, only to see the console die again? And how about that "warranty" that covers it, eh?

No hostility meant towards you, Squeek. I know what your ideas on the PS3 are already.

I'm getting a Wii.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

The PS3 surely won't die. There are tools all over the place willing to pay that much for a PS3 and $60/70+ for PS3 games.

Let's not forget the REALLY dumb people who think that price = how good it is. There are actually a nice number of them out there who think like that, sadly.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

isn't the ps3 using the same controller it's been using for years?

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Kinda, but it lacks vibration and instead has a motion sensor. A better one than is in the Wii one, if I remember correctly.

The PS3 controller's shape isn't very conducive to some things, like using the controller as a gun, though, so I dunno if the motion sensing will be a big help...

Im pretty sure the ps3 motion sensor thing is not as complex as the wii motion thing.

HAHAHAHA.

The PS3 one gets six degrees of tilt. The Wii controller can detect position, pitch, and motion. And you know what's funny? The PS3 tilt sensor was implemented AFTER the Wii controller's capabilities were revealed. It just adds to the list of what Sony steals from Nintendo.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Actually, Sony had been working with the Warhawk developers for about 4 months before e3 about the axial tilt.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Oh I get it, I heard it had 6 degrees, which for some reason I meant 6 things it could perceive, as opposed to 3 with the Wii controller.

I'm not sure what else it would sense, though... o_O

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

When it comes to the PS3 controller I'd much rather have vibration than
motion detection. Like eb said I'm not really gonna be enjoying pointing
my controller at the screen while holding it with both my hands, it just
does n't work as well.

Re: The PS3 Is Here.

Which is why, as Miyamoto has already pointed out, it's more comfortable to hold in your lap and play in a more casual way, not flailing in front of the screen.
