Roy Focker Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I agree and I need an online capable game. Other wise I'm just playing with myself and I think you should all watch me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JsARCLIGHT Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 My PS3 tag is JsARCLIGHT... Except I own zero games and have yet to actually "play" anything on the system other than a demo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uxi Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I sent clan invites to those of you I saw with Warhawk accounts (I several buddies listed as not players - meaning they haven't bought warhawk or haven't gone online yet). So go to the Community, Clans, and Invitations to see if you got it, cause I don't think it tells you on sign in, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwinges Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I'll added you as a friend and will join the clan next chance I get to play....that is unless you guys want to start a macrossworld red and blue clans. That might be fun. I don't play too much. Right now I'm kinda fixated on Heavenly sword. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Focker Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 I gotta ask why do they use the word "Clan"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uxi Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Clan is old school FPS/simulator stuff. Hmm... says Kamjin is not a player (was trying to send you an invite)... you have Warhawk, right? Have you been online with it yet? Haven't played since the weekend. Watched Dracula tonight (despite early reviews, it's great PQ for a great movie) and Silver Surfer but hopefully before this weekend, if not before.

David Hingtgen Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Maybe I should change the title of this thread to 40GB edition based on the latest news. 400's still a lot though for a stripped-down version, when the same amount bought the best version of the 360 last year. I'd rather snag a emotion-engined 60GB for below 500. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 (edited) The Ratchet & Clank Future demo is up at the PS store tomorrow. How early do they usually put those things up?

David Hingtgen Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 If they really want to sell PS3's---bring the remaining 60G down to 450 or 400 for Xmas, and put the 40G at below 400---maybe match the $350 360. Of course, no Transformers on Blu-Ray removes a big incentive for me to get a PS3. May just snag an HD-DVD add-on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 $350 for the 40G at X-mas would be a deal for me... it would make alot of sense to start pricing the PS3 competitively... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 PS3 is also a Blu-Ray player. Sony can't undercut their Blu-ray partners by alot or there's going to be trouble. BUT there has been rumbling from the BDA that there's going to be price drops on Blu-Ray players for this X-mas so price drops for the PS3 is possible.

David Hingtgen Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Well, with losing the most-anticipated, highest-grossing movie of their most-desired demographic (Transformers, 15-40 or so) for Blu-Ray----they better come up with some incentives pretty quick if they want to keep up in the format war. You KNOW that when people are buying next-gen players and HDTV's this holiday season---they're all going to be asking "what has Transformers?" :edit: Ack, it's still below Spider-Man 3 for domestic gross. But it's passed POTC 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Couldn't care less about HD size/space, Wi-Fi means nothing to me, and with my most-wanted movie not on Blu-Ray----PS3 doesn't have much to offer me at this point. I WAS going to buy a HDTV, PS3, and watch Transformers. Now, I'm thinking I'm going to buy an HDTV, and a 360's HD-DVD add-on, and watch Transformers.

mikeszekely Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 The "stripped" PS3 still is "more value" of a machine than the Premium 360. Larger HDD, Wi-Fi, Blu-ray, etc. But the Wi-Fi blows; after having it drop every 3-5 minutes, I got so fed up with it that I ran a wired connection. The larger HDD would be great if Sony actually gave us something to do with it (ala Microsoft's Video Marketplace). And all the perceived value in the world doesn't make up for the fact the best exclusive games have been, so far, either Xbox 360 (Gears of War, BioShock, etc) or Wii games (Super Paper Mario). That's not to say that the PS3 won't have good exclusives. There's still Metal Gear Solid 4 on the way, and I bought a PS3 banking on an eventual God of War 3. But Microsoft's got Mass Effect coming, and Nintendo has their stable of first party goodness, so Sony's still playing catch up for top-tier exclusives. We can talk about Blu-ray and what not, but when push comes to shove, it's really the exclusives that separate the 360 and the PS3 in the eyes of the gamers.

bandit29 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 Well the worst kept secret is out 40 gb PS3 for the UK and price cut on the 60gb. 40gb has no PS2 backward compatibility, 2 USB slots and no memory card reader. here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunbuster Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 40gb has no PS2 backward compatibility?!!! ;;; I thought PS2 games were going to be software emulated when they took it out Emotion chip... I don't get it, why can't the 40GB version play PS2 games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 But the Wi-Fi blows; after having it drop every 3-5 minutes, I got so fed up with it that I ran a wired connection.

JsARCLIGHT Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 My PS3, while it has never really been "used" on the game front yet, has never once had an issue connecting to my WiFi or maintaining a connection. I was watching Dawn of the Dead on Blu Ray last night and it was chirping away on the WiFi like a bandito... what it was doing is beyond me but it was linked for 2+ hours and the little WiFi light never went off.

TheLoneWolf Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 40gb has no PS2 backward compatibility, 2 USB slots and no memory card reader. here Wow, no PS1 or PS2 compatibility. I understood why Sony removed the Emotion Engine in favor of the cheaper software emulation, but the removal of software emulation is a little unsettling considering the software emulation was "completed" earlier this year. My only guess is that the software emulation released was not as accurate or all-encompassing as Sony originally advertised and shelved it because the development needed to bring it up too speed would cost too much in the long run. If this PS3 is ever released in the US, you can count on Microsoft trumpeting the backwards compatibility of their Premium 360. How many bullets can Sony shoot into their feet?

From reading the Gamestop article, I thought it was said that the PS3 would maintain PS1 capability, but considering that the PS2 has been their biggest success so far and with the software emulation covering so many PS2 titles to begin with, I can't see why they're doing it. If I decide to change my mind on the PS3, I better go out and get the 60 GB version quick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bandit29 Posted October 5, 2007 Share Posted October 5, 2007 PS One games will still work according to the article. I think a few years from now the loss of PS2 games on the PS3 won't be that big of a deal. I'm glad I have my 60gb though Hopefully it will last like my launch PS2 has. I doubt Microsoft would do anything. They have enough problems fixing busted consoles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
