not impressed with ps3

I saw a working ps3 today running a basketball game ( I'm not sure what it was since I'm not into sports games) and they had resistance fall of man. Both games looked pale next to both current pc games and current 360 games. Both games looked like they were about comparable to games from maybe 2 - 3 years ago. Even late generation xbox 1 games looked about comparable. Sony wants me to spend $800 on thier console. I think not

Um.... I'm kind of speechless right now. First, where did you see a working ps3 in person, the screenshots alone of resistance (screenshots tend to be quite worse than the actual game) look considerably better than ps2/ xbox graphics, and the PS3 is not 800 bucks. The high end playstation is 599.99.

I would say when ps3 comes out, it will look very comparable to current xbox360 games, but to say it compares to last generation is a pretty false statement.

Please explain.

I agree, although I'm a 360 fan I will not wantonly bash another console just for kicks. I agree on one thing, there will be very little if any difference between the 360 and PS3 (because of the already huge prices of programming), however the comparison sounds rediculous to me.

I am not such luckey to use it yet.
Good to hear about that.

I guess he is another 360 fanboy who likes bashing PS3's he hasnt seen in action. Also get your facts right about the price.

As you are a person who pretends to be "impartial" :rolleyes: . Sony fanboy.

Consoles = TRASH. Long live the PC.

Amen to that, brotha !

*Sigh*

It really is truly amazing to see the blatant one-sidedness of people. The same person who comments on someone not being impartial is the same one to make a statement like all consoles are trash.

I also don't see why Jam3s-Zer0's comment was that impartial. It seems pretty clear that the original poster is very biased, and pointing out that he should find out about the price seems like a pretty logical statement to make. So maybe according to your logic, if someone doesn't see something in the same light as you then they are being one sided or automatically a fanboy?

or spend $60 on some typical FPS (with the same dam gaming engine as most other FPSs) only to spend about $650 on a new video card just to play it smoothly!![/COLOR] (not to mention you better hope it isn't a DX10 game... Then you would have to buy WINDOWS VISTA just to have the rendering compadible with the video card. >_>)

[COLOR=indigo]PC games are just SCAMS to get poor little 16 year-olds to spend all their work money on everyything from the CPU to the RAM, and all u just get SUCKED IN like a bunch of suckers.[/COLOR]

Im going to sort of agree with him on the price. If you just buy the 600 dollar console it will just be a paperweight. What are you going to do with it? Play demos? You're going to have to buy game(s) and I would recommend getting another controller. That can easily cost you over 700 bucks. Think I've only spent 400 bucks on my 306? I've spent over 500 actually for a controller and a game.

Actually, I do not console game and I am [i]not[/i] a sony fanboy. I think the PS3 will be over priced but I was stating the obvious, that his comments were bias and blatant lies.



Posted by: ElBurro

I saw it in action at digital life in N.Y [url]http://digitallife.com/flash.html.[/url] As I said in my opinion what I saw was no where even close to what sony promised. There were a lot of pc games and 360 running that looked tremendously better. Sorry if my opinion offends you but I can't help but have it. Also my friend told me he went to EB games and they told him the ps3 would be selling for $800. I have no idea if it's true or not but that is what he said.



Posted by: jjrodezno

Simple solution in 3 easy steps:
1.wait until one of your friends buys a ps3
2.play with your friends ps3
3.if u liked it buy it.
if not then save your money for something else... like a big screen tv.. or the months grocery shopping.. or the downpayment of a new car.. you can even put it in a savings acc for your retirement! (LOL)

not true.



Posted by: killians45

It MIGHT be, if they go the way some retailers are going and require that you have to buy bundles (this has happened with previous consoles).



Posted by: n30phYte

sure you can always think of an exception to make a point i guess. but who's talking about bundles from certain retailers? you dont have to settle for buying a bundle is what i'm saying. if you think you're being forced to buy a bundle for a new console and you don't want what comes with it, then you still have the option of getting it somewhere else, though it may be further down the road while you wait on new shipments.

what i'm saying is that the bottom dollar is not gonna be $800. retail price for the high-end machine is $599. that's been out for a while now. the ps3 MIGHT cost $4000 dollars too if you get ripped off on eBay...but like i said earlier you can always get one for retail though maybe not right away.

:eek: :cool:



Posted by: n30phYte

i love this guy's posts.



Posted by: aaronkupen

Yah, I have no idea what that is. Zep, what are you doin man?



Posted by: Zep

Oh geez...

El Burro = "The Donkey" in Spanish.

The Donkey - In the U.S., the Democratic party has a Donkey as their symbol.

From what I just explained above, you guys should know why the "left arrow" symbol is there.

Get it?? :P



Posted by: aaronkupen

Yah, I got that. Why did you say it though man?



Posted by: Zep

To see how many people would get it without me saying a word, obviously that didn't work out :p



Posted by: n30phYte

...but you said it in a thread about the PS3. that's what we all don't understand.



Posted by: aaronkupen

So illogical man.... that was just so illogical.
