Re: The new PS3
But by doing a quick count of the games that I own for both xbox and ps3 all 12 xbox games have the 720p/1080i/1080p listed while the 3 ps3 games I own list 480p/720p. My tv also lists the resolution that its being played at so I don't have to guess if its 720 or 1080. At the moment the only advantage the ps3 is holding over my xbox is that I was able to download the original silent hill and final fantasty 7for the original playstation off of the playstation store. So I'll be doin some old school gaming for a while. I pretty much bought the ps3 for the blu ray capability and thats about it. I got it last year when sony style had it for 100 bucks off so I only paid 299 and some change. |

Re: The new PS3
I've noticed that the lower budget PS3 games are 720 and the higher budgets are 1080

Re: The new PS3
lol I had a dream the Xbox 720 was already out along with the PS4. I've heard that both the new consoles will be out at the end of 2011. But the 360 came out atleast 1 year before the ps3.

Re: The new PS3
I dont think either of them are going to push new consoles soon....If the pattern continues I think both companies are going to expand themselves and the consoles as much as they possibly can online. They are going to milk the crap out of digital distribution and make as much profit as they can off of dlc.

Re: The new PS3
thats how it should be, prices finally come down, then they are jumping ships to a new console...sucks balls. I like how they said the PS3 will try to get 10 years out of it. I wish pcs would do the same. After 3 months its obsolete. The consoles need to stay around as long as possible in my opinioun. |

Re: The new PS3
yeah I thought the same way, until I realize games are getting shorter, flooding the market with sub par games, and downloads are getting just as expensive. I mean honestly they have upped the price on almost everything...and some of the main franchises of both consoles are being milked when they just need to die out or go through radical change.

Re: The new PS3
yeah sony has proclaimed endlessly that the ps3 is set for a 10 year life cycle unlike almost every console before it being 5 years. I honestly dont think they can produce much more out of it due to the ram needed for the work load the processor can handle. Dont get me wrong the cell processor is a wonderful thing, it really is, but the supporting hardware isnt up the par to put it to its full potential. On that note....anyone seen Uncharted 2? Best graphics by far I think of both consoles, gears 2 coming in close second. MGS4 had some nice character models though...but the rest was bland.

Re: The new PS3
Uh yeah MGS4 was the best game on the PS3 hands down, it's a shame it's the last one. That game series has the best story line of any game ever. I heard their in talks for a movie which I hope if they do it's a high budget and not just some crappy knock off.
I seen a little bit about Uncharted 2. I bought the 1st one and saw it was rated Teen so I figured that it'd be ok, but it was a really fun game. I loved Fallout 3 too, it was pretty neat. |

Re: The new PS3
i was an advid 'box fan, i loved it, thought it was great, untill i went through 3 of them, in less than 1.5 years, i tryed the external fans and all that bullshit, then on the 3rd one i traded it in on a 1st gen 60GB PS3, and have had NO issues whatso ever. i have had this ps3 now a lil over 2 years. since i work 6 days a week i only play madden, mlb, NFS, and ressistance, which most of those are on every console.
its microsoft being cheap, and not taking their time to solder shit right, dont get me wrong 360 has great games, and Live is extrodinary, but the console itself, and its internals are junk. Last edited by 97s104x4 : 09-27-2009 at 07:41 AM. |

Re: The new PS3
Alright I know this is a month old, but its the same title that I was gonna post a few questions under so i'm bumpin it back up.
Anyways, x-max and my b-day are rolling around and I've been wanting a bluray player for awhile. Figure I may as well spend the extra $150 and get the new PS3. I'm just wondering what the differnces are of the old style ps3 vs the new style ps3. From what I gathered from readin this thread was they dont play the ps1 or 2 games anymore, which isnt a problem, and they still play bluray. Do they upconvert normal dvds still? Mainly just looking for the differnce for the new and old ps3? |

Re: The new PS3
If they all play 1080 I didnt figure there would be a big differnce with them. Do the blur more or something, or is the picture not as good?

Re: The new PS3
Can you post up what yours talkin about, to why their not as good?
All I know is it plays hi-def, thats about it lol. Does the ps3 not play 1080i or is it something else that makes it worse? I would look and compare, but have no idea what i'm comparing, or which specs i'm lookin for. |

Re: The new PS3
Thats what i'm askin, what makes them play better? Is it kinda like the refresh rate on tvs, they all play at 1080i, but some run slow refresh rates giving them that slight blur. Not being an ass, just have no clue on these things.

Re: The new PS3
I've read many places that the PS3 is the best bluray player you can get, granted this was a few years ago. Blurays look great on my 1080p.

Re: The new PS3
If it's used? No. You can get an 80 or 120 new for $300.
If it is used then I'd go this route: http://www.gamestop.com/Catalog/Prod...oduct_id=68183 Last edited by ZQ8 Blazer : 11-13-2009 at 11:39 AM. |

Re: The new PS3
Yeah they dropped the price $100 a few months ago. Don't forget though that the one I posted was a refurb.
