gee some people need to take deep breath for sony.
everything can be taken and changed to look bad, they probably mean warm up as the rumored price cut and slim ps3.
also they may bundle games into psp go.

seriously they are like 2007 britney spears, they can't do a think or say a think before someone trying to a find the fifth legs to the cat.
yeah, that means something totally made up, that wasn't suppose to be there.


Hmmm...so Britney DIDN'T shave her head, get into 2 car accidents, go to rehab, get divorced and look like a chubby druggie singing @ the MTV awards in 2007? Yea, it was totally made up



Being in 2nd feels so much better than being in 3rd

epic mention of psp :p
I'm surprised they didn't say "plays ps1 games" Yes Not available not available

 

I am pretty sure it also plays NES/SNES/Genesis/etc. Don't know why they didn't include it.



Pre-order limited edition Blue Slime Condoms

I think there was a problem with the original chart on page one, I have found the REAL chart Sony should have released:



The on 14 August 2009

to those mocking the chart, I would even add more in advantage to PS3:

1- Bluetooth peripherals interface (no need toy buy batteries of any kind, strong clean signal and reception from bluetooth headsets too).

2- S-Video output, Digital audio output as well as HDMI output. You can configure your home theater set however it suits you best. (For the 360 you have to buy a custom $50 HDMI cable with optical if you want to output digital audio to a receiver and HDMI video to a HD projector, for example) .

3- Superior Dashboard system (XMB) which includes INTERNET BROWSER, easy and friendly interface to watch videos, photos and music stored in the HDD or streamed. Lots of other extra stuff for FREE like PlayStation Life, quick google search, quick custom youtube interface, PlaySation HOME.

4- Superior Sound (Superior HDMI. Spec 3.1 Only one capable of high freq. uncompressed PCM audio, True dolby HD 7.1).

5- PlaySation Video Store, free access (Netflix requires Live Gold).

6- Quieter system, more reliable, better looking too! (and no brick).

7- HDD easy to back up and upgradeable. Supports most 2.5"HDD brands.

8- PSN store with lots of unique PSN games and PSone classics.

9- Supports any USB device, including mouse, keyboard, flash memory devices, external HDDs, etc.

10- Only system to get Gran Turismo 5, Metal Gear Solid 4 and God of War 3! yeah 'nuff said cause I said so. lol

^Highlighted HAS to be a joke lmao, I could list many many more advantages the 360 has over the PS3 but I won't because 1, I can't be @ss'd and 2, it will just cause another flame war in a thread but most of us already know the advantages of each, the 360 comes out on top specially for online features....

Just getting warmed up ?

Sounds like a senior citizen who needs to sit in the sun for a few hours before they can do anything....

...

Sony’s responded to tonight’s NPD figures by saying PS3 is “just getting warmed up” and pointing out differences between its console, 360 Arcade and Wii.

I would hope so, 'cos the PS3 is looking pretty darned 'ice cold' at the moment.

Never in my life could I have imagined just how dire the PS3 situation has turned out!
