[PS3] PlayStation 3 Discussion Thread

And because of pirates, to watch next-gen DVD's on the computer, we need a new computer monitor, graphics card, and disc drive? To watch them on a TV, which should be superior, we need a new HDTV and a new disc player?

Something's out of place here, but it almost seems like Hollywood wants to make itself a niche instead of being mainstream.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I like how nobody will ever take you seriously now that you've used "P$3."

What are you, a linux faggot.

It's funny BECAUSE the P$3 runs Linux. What is Ken Kutaragi, a Linux faggot? XFD

-Global launch on November 11th
-P$3 costs at least $425
-Hard drive accessory REQUIRED to play P$3 games, no word on whether it will be included with the console
-All P$3 games will come on Blu-Ray discs to prevent piracy (prepare for skyrocketing costs--oh wait, go back to point one)

I said "Ow".

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Isn't that a good thing though? First-generation Sony products have sketchy quality, especially when involving the disc drives, and we're talking about an expensive console here. By the time MGS4 comes out, PS3 may have had a price cut... or maybe not... but at least most of the quality issues should be sorted out by then.

How ya doing, buddy?

Don't forget that Micro$oft charges $100 for their external 20gb HDD! Yes, even though it's a "laptop" hard drive, it's still a ripoff. I wouldn't be surprised if Sony had the nerve to charge $150 or more for their 60gb HDD, loaded with Linux OS, just for "the linux faggot" lol.

How ya doing, buddy?

It's almost definitely worth less; whether it be a manufactured shortage or a real one, the 360 has had no momentum whatsoever since a little while after launch, and thus there is no advantage to launching ahead of Sony.

I was speaking idiomatically.
