Looks bad ass to me. good call Nick.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 24 2006, 02:42 PM

These were taken at Leipzig Gaming Convention in Germany, Sony refused to plug in the console because they have a "surprise". Also, a new Metal Gear Solid 4 trailer was released there, http://gamevideos.com/video/id/5233
Those pics on IGN also came from the show, notice Sony uses red in the background and on their site the PS3 logo is in red, I think the surprise could possibly be that the logo on the front lights up red when you turn it on.

Posted by: ROOK Master wiz Aug 24 2006, 02:58 PM

Maybe it talks to you like KIT from night rider and the logo glows red and the light moves back and forth. that would rook. or atleast be a hell of a mod idea.

i think the ps3 sucks cause all of its "new" things is stolen from nintendo or microsoft

Posted by: Rag Aug 25 2006, 09:15 AM

umm the 6 axis motion sensing wasnt stolen from microsoft or nintendo



as for the online, maybe

Posted by: tEh BiZoRz Aug 25 2006, 09:19 AM

ok ash ill sum this up very nicely...SONY OWNS NINTENDO AND MICROSOFT and they dont need to take shit from that (xbox) gay ass company....(nintendos ok...but sony still owns it...)

Posted by: ROOK Master wiz Aug 25 2006, 10:00 AM

Ok lets see these things you speak of the motion thing in the controller technically isn't stolen from nintendo at all. theres huge differences. nintendos motion controller can actually tell where in a room you are and has a complete range of motion that it senses from the wireless part of it. Sony's motion controlelr on the other hand is I believe an 8 axis motion sensor that works on sliders. in other words it's not going to even come close to the precision that the nintendo controller will have.



As for online the onlie shops and stuff and the way the online is set up is com,pletely different from xbox's it is using the same interface as the psp. it may be using some of the ideas that microsoft has as far as some of the online features but sony is taking it to the next level and will totally out do what xbox has to offer as far as online options. oh ya and it's FREE to play a game online.



Now PS3 is clearly going to outdo any of the next gen consoles. it out does nintendo in many ways. mostly graphics. don't get me wrong I am gonna get a Wii it looks bad ass and as far as imagination and bringing new stuff to the table Nintendo owned Sony and xbox. but it still seems to be to kid based. how ever the motion thing will make it great. as for the 360. come on now. look at it. you take the xbox out of it's shell add a better graphics engine and you have a 360. they didn't bring anything new to the 360. it's an upgraded xbox and nothing more. Just like the xbox I will never buy a 360.



Sony has blue ray. Blue ray has like 5 times the space on it then even an hd dvd has. and the 360 still uses the same format as an xbox. if you want to use an hd dvd you have to pay extra for an attachment to do so. all this extra space means bigger games,better graphics, and longer game play. you have the motion thing in the controller. personally I don't think it's going to be good and I would rather have the vibration function but we shall see. Sony's PS3 cost a lot yes but it brings more to the table over it's previous console then say the 360 does. I am most excited about the nintendo Wii but the PS3 is a close seocnd. I hope Sony and Nintendo kick 360's ass and knocks them out of the console race like Sony and Nintendo did sega.



conclusion. XBOX SUCKS

Posted by: tEh BiZoRz Aug 25 2006, 11:00 AM

rooked by teh rook master

Posted by: Travik Aug 25 2006, 12:45 PM

conclusion: Xbox 360 Sucks!

As you said "Xbox is worth liking" but the 360 is a waste of money just for a little better graphics and a few, minor upgrades.

Posted by: Gamb Aug 25 2006, 03:19 PM

I have a 360 for the sole reason of Dead Rising anyway, lol.

Posted by: Embro Aug 25 2006, 03:27 PM

ALL of you fucks are fanboys exept wiz, nick, and a couple of other people. biz=fanboy

I mean really....if you are happy with a god damn console then who the fuck cares?

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 25 2006, 03:30 PM

Don't call people fanboys and don't take the Lord's name in vain.

Posted by: Travik Aug 25 2006, 03:37 PM

Listen to Ferg, and you and Camo need to stop making big deals out of people's opinions.

(Sorry for naming name's)

Posted by: Oompa Aug 25 2006, 03:37 PM

agreed.

I'm...not sure if im a fanboy or not...hmm...

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 25 2006, 03:39 PM

Nah, you're not.

Posted by: Travik Aug 25 2006, 03:42 PM

... Am I...?

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 25 2006, 03:42 PM

I guess not.

Posted by: Embro Aug 25 2006, 04:16 PM

Of course not, look at his sig.

But I tell you this strait, if the PS3 was named Xbox 360 and the 360 was named PS3 you guys would get a ps3 just because it is called that.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 25 2006, 04:26 PM

What does his sig do with anything? If I put future PS3 owner I won't be a fanboy?
Um, no I wouldn't, I don't care if they rename the PS3 the Console of Retards 900, I'd buy it.

Posted by: ROOK Master wiz Aug 25 2006, 04:26 PM

I'm not a fan boy I am just anti xbox. I always loved sega and nintendo and sony. for some reason I never liked xbox. I remember I used to hate sony to. back in the day I was like wtf triangle square x circle. thats lame bla bla bla. but then I got one and was like woah. cool. but w/ xbox the hate goes much deeper then that. I dunno. I will always be a fan of the rest of the consoles except xbox. I mean shit the PS3 is bigger then the xbox. I used to rag on xbox for being so big. damn.




Edited: actually no I wouldn't buy it if it was the other way around. if the ps3 was made by microsoft I would buy the 360. if the 360 was made by panasonic I would buy it if it was made by sega I would buy it. if it was made by any other company besides microsoft I would prolly buy it. but since it isn't I will never own one. I won't own any console made by microsoft.

You forgot to say that you end up paying more after 3 years with online for 360. $610 = total for three years.

And btw, to who ever edited ash's post...That was very fucking childish.

Posted by: Travik Aug 25 2006, 06:47 PM

What did it say before edited?

Posted by: lol_Doughnut Aug 25 2006, 07:20 PM

It said in his post "I would like you all to know I am homosexual and like it up the arse"... Or some shit like that.

Posted by: Gamb Aug 25 2006, 07:52 PM

Hes just letting people know so you edit it off...someone....

I'm not fanboy either, I like every system. =/

Posted by: Embro Aug 25 2006, 10:56 PM

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 25 2006, 11:53 PM

Told you wiz that SD/Flash cards go in the front area. But whats CF and Pro though? Man I cant wait for this console I see alot of fun coming along with it.

Posted by: Shadow Aug 29 2006, 01:14 AM

idk man people say they stole shit but wtf their only a few type of technolgie cuz one person uses one thing and the other uses it aswell dont mean their the same. ps2 disks runs on ps2 and xbox runs on xbox so i dont see repping. just cuz Idk a example i do this new gfx tech and people are like thats hot and another forum another person did it ass well and it spreads does it mean we been all stealing the gfx skill from other?

Posted by: ROOK Master wiz Aug 29 2006, 07:41 AM

I knew atleast one of them was a card reader. my main question was what is the plug in thing on the left. it's kinda big. looks like a printer port almost or something like that lol.

Posted by: =BGOAT=Nicholas Aug 29 2006, 08:12 AM

The CF slot is Compact Flash. And the Pro slot is for Memory Stick Pro Duo.

Posted by: ROOK Master wiz Aug 29 2006, 08:51 AM

I knew what the pro was for. I don't understand why they need to have a CF slot though. I mean it's kinda big and is a waste of space. I mean they should of put like a memory card slot there. because it's backwards compatible but how are you gonna use your game saves from previous games? hook up the ps2 to the ps3 and transfer it to the HDD?. Unless they make an adaptor.

Posted by: Oompa Aug 29 2006, 10:32 AM

ya, i think theyre gonna have some kind of adapter for ps2 mem cards. either it will hook up into a USB port or a memory stick port but obviously there has to be an adapter because there is no port for memory cards that i have seen on the ps3 yet.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 29 2006, 02:54 PM

Yes there will be an adaptor, said here: http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/about.html
Also, here's a pic showing the PS3's transparency.

Posted by: Shadow Aug 29 2006, 06:27 PM

Posted by: Oompa Aug 29 2006, 07:46 PM

ferg, you love the ps3 almost to the point of scary obsession...but then, so do i.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 29 2006, 07:53 PM

I have to keep up with this stuff, it's part of a group thing. But yea anyways, it is too sexy to resist

Posted by: Oompa Aug 29 2006, 07:55 PM

and it comes in more than one color

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 29 2006, 07:59 PM

Actually, only clear black has been announced, the other colors were concepts.

Posted by: Travik Aug 29 2006, 07:59 PM

My Wii is sexier. lolz

Posted by: Oompa Aug 29 2006, 08:29 PM

ah...well, ive learned something new today.

Posted by: Gamb Aug 29 2006, 09:15 PM

Wii + OMGZ!! Penis = dead the first day the name was released.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 29 2006, 09:45 PM

What...?

Posted by: =BGOAT=Nicholas Aug 29 2006, 11:40 PM

All I want to know is why would we need those flash and memory slots for when we have a 60gb hard drive? Will we be able to transfer images and music from PC to the PS3 with the flash drives? But still I think Sony is holding something huge back becuase theres no reason for flash/memory card slots like those on a gaming console.

Posted by: FeRgY Aug 30 2006, 03:35 PM

Ken Kutaragi isn't trying to market a game console, it's a computer (Even though most people are so accustomed to their definition of pc, yes the PS3 is one). Those memory slots would be used for transferring from digital cameras, PC's, PSP, other handhelds, etc. It would also be good if you used them for game saves, and brought them to your friends house, but you can do that without those cards also. I'm pretty sure you can use USB flash drives so yea, the 20GB version will probably still have small portable media options.
