103: thats why most optical receivers have a hdmi input and output :-p

98. "If sony wants all its buyers to enjoy the " Blu-Ray" experience, why didint they include the HD cords in your $600 ps2 gaming system, oh wait, PS3. Answer that fanboys."

Does it matter? If you want to know the real reason is because only around 30% of ps3 owners own a hdtv, let alone one with hdmi hookups.

If this is really your biggest problem with the system and cant spare the extra 10 bucks for a hdmi cable (the same quality as the 360 one will have...regardless that all hdmi cables perform the same from 10$ to 150$) then you need a new job.

Did your computer come with usb cables?

did your xbox come with dvd playability out of the box?

Hell, did you tv come with a fricken hdmi cable

seriously, thats just dumb.

Digi Smalls: You kinda missed the point hm?


I said PROPRIETARY. It has nothing to do with the fact that sony has all you said, its the fact that i dont have to go buy a ridiculasly overpriced pos made by m$ to get it to work. i can hookup something i already have.

Also, i never said the ps3 was even better now did I? all i said was for the money, why not spend the extra 20 to get those things? i mean regardles if you want/need them to have a good time, it can be for a future purchase and save some $.

YOU obviously have never had any hd movie exsperience or just dont have a hdtv. It would blow you away, end of story. You dont want it? fine, no problem, but for 20 bucks more why not?


and your right, ps2 was successful cus of games. the ps3 has been out for 4 months, or 4 days in europe, i dont really expect to have a full library quiet yet bud.


And ummmm, when did limited edition ever get disscused with this? that would be the stupiest thing ever.


Lastly, hypocrites? since when have exsclusives been a big deal? in all reality, what exsclusive one the 360 is a SYSTEM SELLER? really now, think about it. Halo 3 obviously, GoW? but what eles? the "exsclusives" argument is pointless at this point cus there just arnt enough games to say anything.


And following a brand? are you kidding? I hate all sony audio equipment with a passion, they are horrible. And it seems you arn't hm?


Give it a rest bud, your arguments dont make sence. I am not saying go and buy a ps3 for 20 bucks more, i couldn't really care less. this post is for the m$ fanboys who make outrageous remarks and stupid comments about stuff they dont know.


BTW, i own a ps3, a 360, and a wii. You know why? cus they are all fun! I just feel with the ps3, i have a lot of things i can do that expand my experience beyond just games. Once you grow up a bit you'd realize that all-in-one components save you a lot of money in the long run.

so...ummm...for 20 bucks more i can have a blu ray player? not only that but almost complete un proprietary usage with the system (ie: 360 only camera, 360 only wireless headset, 360 only hard drives, closed media architexture, pay for only live, no browser, no saving ANYTHING onto the hd(through linux...o yea that to)) no offence m$ fanboys but you seem to not have that much support here...


Thank You Come Agian.

(and since when did everythign sony says become bad? i mean, look at major nelson m$ fanboys...he trashes sony but all you say is "he's brillient!", get a life guys...o wait, ur still in middle/high school, cant quiet do that yet huh?)

yea...i know so many people with 10" wide faces, your right...GoW did have very very very nice character graphics but did you every look at them in cutsceans? they were very color blocky with a (just like every this gen game) plastic Barbie look. This gen is really pushing graphical capabilities for realism but we arnt quite there just yet. wait for xbox 1.3 trillion and ps 23 and then we will be there. untill then, enjoy all the plastic you can!!!!


back on topic. Developers have to stride for this because if they dont they will get bitched at for NOT trying hard enough, or not taking advantage of the tech. available. its a double edge sword, but vt3 does a very good job of doing this, exspecialy the ps3 version. (the 360 just looks a lot more "fake" to me...i dunno)

pukgreenuniform: washed out? ummm maby u should go outside and look at the sun...im pretty sure it doesnt put a dark contrast on everything....look in the shadows on the ps3 version, there is nothing "washed out" or "bloomed up"...i guess u like turning you contrast all the way dark so the colors look more "vibrant", lol. The biggest difference i noticed was the character desighn. Look at the shoulders of both versions, the 360 has the noticeable sharp lines, while the ps3's is very smoothed out. the skirt is also a huge stick out between the 2 for the same reason. and as said before, the crowd looks a bit blurred out in the 360 version and not nearly as sharp.


(just to lyk, i have rented both versions, the ps3 version does look a lot sharper and smoother, with better textures as well)

i have yet to have any problems with my ps3 and sixaxis's.

no having to plug it in to re sync, or any crap like that.

no controller cutting out on me.

and yes, this is with rr7, resistance, tony hawk, or genji.

so....yea....maby u guys are just dumb? lol jp.

but to this poster
"Can firmware updates really fix something like this? I mean, what if the reason it loses sync is cause by a faulty hardware design, or if the scaling issues are simply because the scaler is faulty as well, so they simply decided to not use it? Will a firmware upgrade magically fix this?"

why do you even post a comment? actually, just dont speak, it will be better for all of us. 'Cus if we lived in ur world, there would be scalers in our ps3 that, i guess if they got tired or lazy, would stop scaling stuff.

so i just have one question. does anyone truly know why the are bias agianst sony? IM TALKING TO YOU, MICROSOFT FANBOYS. I mean really, i will send 5 dollers to some one with an intelligent answer, not "the 360 has better graphics, games, ect" im talk INTELLIGENT, SENCE MAKING POINTS. I am willing to bet almost none of you can. You hate cus u can, not cus u know why.
