follow the links Jago...google search for your self if you dont believe me inside google news.



I am really curious as to how well the ps3 will sell over here in the south pacific. any piece of electronics scraping $3000 NZ better be able to zap burglars, do my taxes, change diapers, discover the secret recipe of KFC chicken, cook KFC chicken, perform open heart surgery caused by all that KFC chicken, and then build me a gold and silver coffin out of loose change...and then bury me to avoid. Only after this will I be happy spending $3000 NZ on any type of piece of electronics.

"It will make them look better. It isn't about gameplay, but about how they look. That's why so many PC games look beautiful. They're on HD monitors."



WOW...just WOW...that sound like something said from a true biased Xbox fanboy. I'm not saying you are but if all it does it make the graphics look a little prettier then thats a poor excuse.



"You're wrong. They're making games for BOTH standard and high definition. If they were just for high def. I'd agree with you. And you don't need to be rich to have an HDTV, at least an average one. Nintendo simply is taking away the option of high def."



I'm talking about the price of the systems, not the TVs. To get the full benefit of the Xbox 360 you have to spend $400+ and that is BEFORE you buy any games.



As for HDTVs, true they are slowly dropping in price (I just bought a 26" Toshiba flat tube for $550 a few weeks ago) but a normal consumer isn't gonna immediately justify spending $500+ for a TV to have prettier graphics for games. Plus HD LCD TVs push the $1000+ range for a decent one.



"Revolution simply won't have the games PS3 and Xbox 360 have."



Can you prove that? No, you can't b/c NO GAMES HAVE BEEN SHOWN OR ANNOUNCED FOR THE REVOLUTION!!!



"Nintendo themself has said there system won't be about horsepower and graphics capabilities, but to make an affordable console."



That maybe what they have said but we still have yet to see any footage of real gameplay on the system. Would you rather them be a little more reasonable about the capabilities of the system or overhype so much that it could never possibly meet those expectations?



Also the whole reason to play a GAME is for GAME-play. A game could have incredible graphics and play like complete shit. Would you rather play a game that is FUN to play and PRETTY to look at or PRETTY to look at and NO FUN to play?

Jago:



it was sarcasm bro, you only have one source supporting what youve said, and i have 5 saying that the price range will be about $1800 and $500 respectively between the 2 dvd formats.



and if my links dont work, then just google it like i said. I aint in here to be judged on my typing or cutting and pasting skills of URLs. If anyone can get my links working and post them again....feel free for my brother Jago to believe that i was giving an opinion based on research, and not the southern winds of my ass.



and Jago...brother...your link didnt send me anywhere enlightening...but hey...were not in here for typing class...

I never said you lying...you asked me to prove that there was a Blu-Ray player for $1000 and I proved it:



"The Samsung BD-1000 has an MSRP of approximately $1,000. "



http://www.i4u.com/article4841.html



Why do I need multiple sources if this one source proves. If you don't believe me then search for "BD-P1000" on engadget.com for proof (and a picture.)

Quotes from the genius JAGO: You my friend are the definition of a BIASED and IGNORANT Sony fanboy.

You my friend are the definition of a BIASED and IGNORANT Sony fanboy



Another Quote from MR Intelligence: Wow Kizza...what are you 12? Are you incapable of have a discussion without resorting to personal attacks? Guess not...which your intelligence level.



This is where retards like yourself shouldn't comment. For starters you have posted a reaction to my initial truth filled comments that entailed the above two quotes. Your feelings got a bit hurt cause I insulted your beloved ninbendo. secondly, I believe the fanboy word & noob word are overused, nothing nerd words, used by geek, tools, like that bloke that stares back at you in that shiny thing in the bathroom, whilst your cleaning your teeth.



Next if your gonna make a point like your pathetic girlyman, personal attacks one. Don't attack first. You see I take dumbest comment as you subliminily calling me dumb, without actually saying it up front, like a man. Next biased & ignorant are also words that could be taken as derogatory remarks. But you see mongolude, I simply don't care. I will destroy you with my lyrical poeticness & cut you down by being direct, concise & to the point.



I mean, I don't take your insults personally, as its just type on a computer. Wheras, you being the nerd you are, feel I have dishonoured you with my keyboard. Now ask yourself, retard, who is the 12 yr old, really, comon......Oh ok, you got me.....you turned 13 in november. hahhahahah JAGO is not only a RETARD, he's a hypocrit too.
