nintendo is 9:30am and ms is 12pm [mid day] tomorrow i believe.

i'm sure someone will, if they don't i will.

 

[Gorgon]

guys. could someone sum up the PS3 information ?

 

[Dumb Dude]

As much as I like Metal Gear Solid, I refuse to pay over twice as much for what I see as an inferior Revolution (in every way save the graphics).

I was going to buy both. Now I've changed my mind.
Ripping off the motion sensor controller was the last straw.

In the nicest way possible:

That was the dumbest thing I have EVER read.

 

[JellyWorld]

One long thread... Too bad I was in school.

 

[Javes]

Did anyone else feel underwhelmed by Sony this year, particularly their "WHOA GUYS! THAT WAS AMAZING!!111" and "Our AMAZING new features like a Xbox 360 home button AND a Wii style gyro-sensor! WOW GUYS!111"

no?

no?

what did you expect then ?

 

[Dalamari]

It's nice to see PS3 has an online mode exactly like Xbox Live with iTunes so Sony can whore more money

 

[destrukt]

what did you expect then ?

for them to have at least 1 original aspect, everything is just a rip off of either someone else or just re-using old things.

 

[Gorgon]

1. PS3 showed no graphical advantage over 360.
2.Sony didn't reveal anything about Online features that resemble anything like Xbox live.
3.Sony has removed Rumble feature from controllers to instead put in some bull crap motion sensors that will be used in like 3 games at best. That's right...they have axed the freakin rumble pack!!!!! Aaaarrggghhhh!
4. No HDMI port in $499 and NO DUAL HDMI as promissed at last years E3.
5. Polyphonic still doesn't have online portion of GT ready...what does that tell you about Sony's Online plans!!!
6. No announcement of Launch Titles. 360 is going to whoop ass on the amount of available Titles this Fall.
7. Nothing said about streaming media from PC...no answer to 360's Media Center functionality. (MCE is not to be underestimated...as nearly all new computers come with MC and nearly all Windows Vista computers will come with Media Center)

WTF....

 

[Fishlore]

LOL, 600 dollars for a console. I feel bad for the parents that have to listen to their spoiled kids whine for months on end about getting one. How does everyone here plan to afford one of these things? I guess the better question is why in the hell would you? What a waste. Talk about an underwhelming presentation.

 

[destrukt]

gorgon, why the wtf, whoever said that is right. : o

In the nicest way possible:

That was the dumbest thing I have EVER read.

Wow, I must be really stupid then.
I mean, if calling the PS3 overpriced is the dumbest thing you've EVER read, it must certainly be dumber than, say, Nazism.
On a scale of 1-to-Dumb, I guess criticising the hastily implemented, quantifiably inferior motion sensor controller is right up there with the Jonestown cult.
Jack Thompson and Creation Science have nothing on this shit, let me tell you. I'm apparently in the big leagues of stupidity.
Hell, I'm their leader now!

"Say, did you know that 9/11 was a jewish alien conspiracy?"
"That can wait; this one guy on the internet said Killzone 1was actually a shitty game!"
"What a retard!!!"

The people who write erotic poetry about their "wolf fursona" seducing Dragonball Z's younger characters can breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that at least they don't consider the majority of online games to be of generally low quality.

Just look at the numbers:

Human Stupidity Top Five:
1) The Holocaust
2) Criticism of the Playstation 3
3) The "Great Leap Forward"
4) Stalin's Purges
5) The Crusades

Wait, only #2? Quick, Mech! Say something stupid!

"I already have DVD players built into my stereo, my Playstation 2 and my PC. The ability to play movies is no longer a novelty, regardless of 'blu-ray'."

Phew, that did the trick. I'm back on top.

highly entertaining ...10 to 1 odds he doesnt know what jonestown is

Weird--I was just talking about Jonestown yesterday! What a horrible joke I made!

I think putting PS3 criticism on top of the world's stupidty list demonstrates just how stupid humans really are. Its a frickin game console! If you like the games it has to offer, then please get it and enjoy! If you don't, then get something else.

And the list is crap too--everyone focuses on the Holocaust as such a horrible and seemingly singular event when there is so much more genocide that has gone on in the world (Pol Pot and his Khmer Rouge exterminated over 20% of Cambodia's population in the late 70s!) and is still going on these days (Rwanda, East Timor, Yugoslavia, Guatemala, Sudan). The Great Leap Forward??? Sure, a policy disaster, but hardly one of the stupidest moments in human history. Same goes for the rest--not great ideas and very evil ones at that, but surely not the stupidest.

I am actually considering a DS now while I wait for the PS3 price to drop. I just need more RAM to play The Dig and Curse of Monkey Island!!! More RAM for the DS Nintendo, please?

 

[CptStern]

ya the ps3 debut broke the internet geeks everywhere are posting their opinions for all the world to see ....often with little more than gut instinct rather than facts

"the ps3 is crappier than M$ because Bill Gates paid them to make it crappy ...oh and wii is for kiddies"

 

[AmishSlayer]

"the ps3 is crappier than M$ because Bill Gates paid them to make it crappy ...oh and wii is for kiddies"

You mean that ISN'T fact?!

 

[CptStern]

well some guy on the internets named KillaNinjaDeathL33tAssassin told me, so it's gotta be true

 

[Mr. Redundant]

nintendo slogan more mature than we once thought?

nintendo rep: "cmon get our console, cuz everybody's gotta wii sometime"

I also heard rumors that there were talks with Fergie of the Black eyed Peas for representation of their new Wii console

 

[Kangy]

YEAH WELL FUK U STERN BIN LADEN MY MOM WILL GET ME ONE ANYWAY
