Xta Large, Unfanboy Extraordinaire

"Also, what future do you speak of? I'm tired of all the "this is sony's yeear" crap. The systems been out for 2 years and some odd months and it's not really getting much better. Granted, you guys are getting god of war 3 (SICK!) but besides that, what else is there this year?"

There's your quote bro. Yeah, not as bad as I made it out to be, sorry bout that. However, while I don't like it when Sony fanboys run around going 'oh this is our year', to say that they haven't had a good year last year or act as though 'it hasn't been getting much better' would be to ignore last year entirely. And there's a lot more than God of War III hitting this year. By comparison, the 360's exclusive list is looking pretty weak right now.

"If you clicked the link the player i linked is a very good player with solid features. A shoddy menu? Who cares, if the player does that it needs to do and provides great sound and amazing picture why pay hundreds of dollars more for a menu?"

It's also $200, not $99. Check the link again bro. Anywhos, the kind of person interested in getting a blu-ray player would no doubt at least be intrigued by the media center functionality available in the PS3.

The Banhammer

Just hit A & B.

"Uh What? You do realize the xbox 360 has three hyper-threader cores totalling 6 threads right? What did you think it was running on a p4? I never said multi-core wasn't the main stream, but this cell processor business is."

Ignoring this tech stuff, that's not my area of expertise.

"If you looked a little further into the amazon link you'd see you can get the player for $150 dollars, which is a hell of alot less then a ps3. You stop being lazy and take a few minutes to search and you'll find a very solid player for around $100 dollars. There's drives for the PC now for well under $100 but that's another subject. The blu-ray excuse is not a reason to buy a ps3. If you want a blu-ray player and want a ps3 as well i can see it being a good purches. However, to buy a ps3 strictly for the blu-ray is simply retarded. I don't know about you but i buy consoles for Games first, features second, Period."

Insight took care of that, you get what you pay for, as far as inexpensive blu ray players go.

"Yes, the ps3's a powerful piece of hardware but we always go back to the last generation when the Xbox was the more powerful but not better console. Power doesn't = better, take a look at the Wii to prove that 'fact'."

Uh, bro, don't you mean 'Power doesn't = more sales'? Because I'd agree with that. However, I don't understand how you could claim that the PS3 is gameless and then claim that the Wii is 'better'.

Rechain of Memories is actually one of the finer Squaremakes (though it doesn't take much... usually, Square Remakes are worthless ports), and definitely benefits from the transfer over to the PS2.

With that said, there's no way in hell it deserves a spot above Persona 4. It's the only KH game I've played that wasn't entirely mindnumbingly repetitive (that says a lot since it's a remake of the most repetitive KH game), but even that doesn't much help it.

Foetoid, the tradeoff there was loads of DLC content, loads of online and offline content that shipped with the game, etc.

You'd have to be stupid to choose the Wii version over the other two versions. It's just plain gimped - the other two versions are feature filled. After playing them, even with anaolg controls, ya don't want to go back.

The consumer decides the value of a product, bro. I loved the shit out of Gears of War. Bought it for $60 just to play it on a friend's 360. _five hour campaign_. Do I regret the purchase? No.

Saying 'oh a game could have been more had they delayed the game and released the DLC on the disk' isn't smart, because it's judging a game not based on what it is and how it stands up to other games but what you think it should be and how your idea of the game stands up to how the game really is.

Plus, there are more good examples of DLC than bad ones. One of my friends and I were having this discussion a few days ago (he agreed with you) and he brought up Burnout Paradise as evidence for his side. I wanted to burn his consoles for saying that.

I'm not gonna bother watching the videos unless the game is in english. Is it?

That'll happen in 09. The Wii, as well as the PS3, look like they're gonna have some great titles this year. The 360 doesn't have as many retail titles down the pipes but it makes up for it by having a shitload of DLC and downloadable titles coming.

Oh, and one more thing, JediKnight, because you NEVER research

This is a single one of Sony's stores.

They have dozens, maybe hundreds, more around the world.

Microsoft is now opening their first M branded store.

Think about what you're saying before you say it - Sony is hardly 'doomed'. Maybe if you'd do a little research before hand you'd stick your foot in your mouth before claiming your idiotic fanboy drivel as 'fact'.

To be fair, Zippy, the PS3 has had games for a while now. 'PS3 has no gaemz' is so 2007. Even the Wii has games now.
