As far as price goes...

Kind of like the mediocre DVD playback capabilities of the PS2. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to see the same happen to all these other bulletpoints. Barebones interface, chat, interactivity, downloads, etc. And then the upgrades come around to unlock the full features of the console. For a price.

This latest news sounds a bit iffy to me. They basically said "we don't have a price estimate". This neither means the price will be below the rumored estimate, nor over it. Overly optimistic people will sadly think this means the console will launch at $299 or something, which is simply impossible. And the blu-ray features would have to be pretty god damn shitty if the value of the combined features in the console rank around $750 and a stand-alone player (early models not being very good quality either) is around $1000 instead.

How ya doing, buddy?

Frankly, I don't understand why you guys are so concerned about the price of the PS3 at launch, especially the members of a forum called GAMING FORCE, after all those who want a PS3 bad enough will figure out a way to get the money, and in most cases someone who wants a console as soon as it’s launch wants it bad enough...
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
$400 is a good price point to launch, given the apperance of a premium product alongside a recently price-dropped 360 as well as giving them an ample range over which to drop prices. How ya doing, buddy? The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
Not sure why everyone is claiming it'll be $600-700. If in Euros, the price was 500, then in the US it'll probably be $500 as well. Euros get the shaft.
And $500 isn't a huge deal, just takes an extra month or so of saving.
How ya doing, buddy? |

Most PSP games are $40, all EA PSP games are $50. That's what I was getting at.

Even if the PS3 BD player sucks, it will at least play BD movies at 1080p, which will be far superior to the best DVD players available, don't you think guys?

Yeah, HDMI makes everything look good.
Pixel-perfect VCD is fantastic, let me tell you. Most amazing jew boots |
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |

If the Blu-Ray drive is 1x speed, does that mean it also plays DVDs at that speed?

AFAIK, the BRD have 1.5x DVD = 1x BR. I could be wrong, but this was what it was last time I checked. Kaiten, the resizing to a lower resolution if a HDCP compliant connection is lacking has to be noted on the box. Many of the studios have said they won't have this security feature, though WB is the only one that has considered using them.
Basically, if they do so, they have to note it somewhere on the case. If they don't, you get HD video over component or whatnot with HDCP. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
I remember hearing some form of conrete disc protection will be put into PS3 game discs. Could someone find me some more info on this?
My guess is it'll resemble the encrypted file system DVD-Video has, not letting you copy unless the program you use is authorized to do so (or capable of cracking it). Jam it back in, in the dark. |
PS3 games are just games on BRD, that's all. There's nowhere I can't reach. The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
