Cermage said:or you know, they're for different parts of the market? sitting at home, in the comfort of your lounge playing games with some glasses on is a hell of a lot different than sitting on a bus playing 3d without glasses on. nintendo didnt turn this "fail" into a success, they've just made it more viable for portable usage. bitching about wearing glasses is a huge nitpick after seeing the popularity of avatar and other 3d movies.
Cermage said:the hell is this logic. the fact that ps3 still has that overhead means it has so much more potential. its seen by multiplats that were originally designed for ps3 first (ffxiii) and i doubt the 360 has the power to process large battles as seen in a game like MAG where its possible to get into 128vs128
The latest out of both MS and Sony is that they intend to stick with their current hardware until Christmas of 2014 if not into 2015 when they'll get replaced with the next gen. I learned of this a couple months ago from my brother who is a producer working for a branch of THQ which publishes for both. Their long term goal both with the PS3 and the 360 is to use their new devices (Move/Kinect) to try and pitch the system as something NEW to do to those who haven't jumped on, and for those who have it to get something entirely new to do so they don't bore of their existing hardware. The problem for both is they lost so heavily putting out hardware at a loss, MS even longer so as xbox went out at a loss for a good stretch too, so neither are keen to move on. Third parties are eating it up as they don't want to either in a down economy and the last they want to do is buy hundreds of thousands of dollars of new dev kits and other shit for all their people including the lost man hours and time converting over when profits are so thin.Joe88 said:seeing all these threads, and then reading the responses
there is just too many ignorant nintendo fanboys to deal with
if you try to prove them wrong, you just get called a sony fanboy
Ive been just trying to stay away from these threads
and some members are purposely creating these types of threads just to cause trouble
im getting real tired of the single minded nintendo fanboys around here...
Yeah you got that right, like that mindless tool Puppy there. Calling me a Sony fanboy is rich, first time for everything as I tend to get blasted for kissing Nintendo's ass off and on for the last 15 years online, but never Sony. I must be doing something right to get that thrown out there.
QUOTE(TM2-Megatron @ Jul 3 2010, 10:10 AM) That kind of overhead is only really useful assuming you want (or intend) for the console to last for an extended period of time without a successor being released. Sony initially said they wanted the PS3 to last 10 years, but I don't see that happening... not without a PS4 on the market for the last 4-6 of those years, anyway. Even then, I think it's overly-optimistic if Sony hopes for the PS3 to have the secondary market longevity of the PS2 or PSOne.
lol, ouch! Somebody is a bit sensitive about being called a Sony fanboy?Vampire Hunter D said:Yeah you got that right, like that mindless tool Puppy there.
Dter ic said:the thing that bothers me is,
why does the ps3 controller has a "ball on top"?
seriously, there are other shapes in this world, why a ball?
and it has flashy colours too!
why? don't sony have balls?

So given the fact short of MS's bullshit with the xbox of flipping out the lights overnight, every other system tends to get a good year or two after the release of new systems, so 10 years is VERY likely to happen. Hell PS2 games still trickle out, and PS1 only stopped its slow crawl a few years ago as well.
I suppose you read that article too? That man practically invented the condition. You're gullible.Jaylen said:honestly all of it is a gimmick...
any hdmi 1.3 compliant televison is capable of doing 3D...
as a matter of fact any high definition television is capable of doing 3D
they can do 3D over the air..and they have, there was an intel superbowl commercial that was 3D
guess where i was watching it...at home on a 1st generation plasma tv that supported 720p, but isnt native 720p...
wow...3D is sooo hard to do...a perspective illusion that could lead to binocular dysphoria...yay!
big deal...
thats no where near the same type of 3d that the tv usesJaylen said:they can do 3D over the air..and they have, there was an intel superbowl commercial that was 3D
