Forums - Sony - Japanese theaters using PS3 to play films

Meh, the real question should be can I play PS3 at the movie theater? That would be balling.

I wonder what the quality of the film was.

Well I know that, but I wonder what it looked like on the screen if people couldn't notice the difference.

At Sony E3 2009. They showed everyone what it'll look like. Go watch Sony E3 2009 again you'll see.



Nah I'll pass and just assume the quality is as good as the regular theater movies.

meh, they are cheeping out rather than using real film and projector which is superior.

Every movie theater these days uses hard drives.

False. Unless you are speaking about Japan then maybe but I have no clue of coarse. I worked between 4-5 different theaters and they all used film as most theaters do (around Chicago I mean) and I live in Chicago which would be a major city lol. Man I hated when the movies would start wrapping all around the reelz and destroyed a minute of the film and not to mention the hour or so it took to fix it.

All the movie theaters in my area (Syracuse NY) are still film theaters. The only downside of film is that if you don't watch the movie when it first comes out the film tends to get damaged and you see those giant black spots. Other than that, the image is better, especially on a huge screen like they have in the theaters around me.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
