Hey guys I found this info on the PS3 about bluray, DVR function, and general release date thought it might help out.

wow im gone for a little while and AHH! this thread is down the tube about all sort of stuff. Thanks stryfe for giving a good article. lets try to get this back to the technical, useful info instead of trashing the 360 & other people. (even though i agree with some of the comments). This thread is the reason that i joined afterdawn in the forst place because it was a great thread, as well as it having many other good ones. please dont ruin it

if you want to keep trashing eachother, start another thread "random insults to anything that i dont like today". or else we will have to go back to nappy time like previously stated

why does everyone around here have to be senseless?

The latest rumours suggest that the ps3 will be released in october, with mgs4 in december, as if it was a launch game none of the others would get a look in.
The last word from a sony representative was that for it to come out in the spring, it would have to be a "very hot spring", so it sounds like there trying for a summer release.
Hopefully well get some new info next week at the Tokyo games show.

well if the ps3 comes out after games like ghost recon 3 and gears of war, and also if they release after the next two waves of xbox 360 to hit the world then they will be in trouble, if they do that i predict that xbox 360 by oct would have sold about 4 mill.

But they all do sort of the same thing, and that is rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because youre so busy going from a to z, that theres 24 letters in between... You turn on... tune in... and you drop out...

they say the Cell blade server has a 40GB bandwith limit and has other bells and whitels that make it optmize all of its power,but sicne they have to shrink it down and remake it into a PS3 wont that reduce most of its power? altho even at half power its still a moster.

the PS3 seems to be building off msotly new tech mabye not the GPU ,the 360 use's current tech for the most part,well the CPU is a 3 core but thats aobut the only thign that is not a normal comp thing.

I ahve yet to read thru all of this 0-o

anyone have basci info on the PS3 liek a stat sheet?

well its amazing how you say the xbox 360 is basically old stuff, but at the same time it, chucking out stuff like ghost recon 3 and gears of war, not to mention that most tech web sites are saying that ps3 is better than xbox 360 in most things, but very slightly, there is not this massive leap or anything close to a leap, its more like hop. so if they are soo close then why are people going to have to pay, or not minding having to pay so much money for the ps3 when its the same.

Did I say old no I said current,once devs get use to programing for it they will be doing 2 or 3 times more things than what the frist gen of games are doing.

My mian issues with the 360 is games that intrest me,if its goign to be anythign like the Xbox line it it will be the last new gen system I get.
Altho I thin they did better selling the system to japan devs so it should have more games on it,games being EVERYTHIGN to a system.

Even if the PS3 has a brand spanking new chipset/cpu/whatever in the end it wont be that much better than the 360,however sicne the 360 was frist they can add more bells and whistels to it.

The 360 has power but as showen by quake 4s iffy running if that power is not harnsed you get lagy paly,the PS3 seems to have a edge it boasts alil more power and hopefuly devs will work on games and not just push them out 0-o

well at the end of the day it comes down to the games, wheather it be, the graphics or the gameplay.

i know that ps3 games will look just as good and maybe a little better than xbox games, but like i said before thats just part of it, you need the gameplay to it aswell, and as far as i can see the games that are coming out for xbox 360 in the years 2006/7 are looking very good.

i am really looking forward to gears of war, really can not wait to see the graphics and online capabilities.

i think gameplay is good. even if its fun to play and the storyline sucks or maybe its just too weird of a story base, then graphics dont matter.

Gameplay has not died just went down hill a bit. You still got good gameplay games like Prince of Persia, God of War, Halo, etc in the last generation but it wasnt as much as what you got in the generation before. Like I thought the Metal Gears where not as good as the PS1 version and the same with Doom 3 like what you say.

One thing I can say for certain is gamplay has to get better. Its the only way it can go now. Graphics will get to the point towards the end of this generations life that graphics will not matter so gameplay will mean the game sells or not.

i supose thats why rev is bringing out all their old games, whcih had the gameplay factor in them adding online play to them to make them even more fun.

as ofr the games of xbox 360 for 2006, like zelda said, they are not lacking gameplay at all.

also i have been watching closely at saints row, and i know thats it looks like gta, well it does. the thing is that, the vids i have seen, make me want to play the game, they look so fun and the graphics are good, considering that its a big game. also all these vids i have seen have been from the XO5 gameshow, so by the time it comes out in june it should look awesome.

oh i am also looking forward to outfit, i know its not one of the big guns, like ghost recon 3 and battle field 2, as it lacks in graphics, but the gameplay looks soooo good, if it looks as good as it does on the vids in single and multiplayer, then i think that could get close to being my game that i need to last me until halo 3 releases. oh and a small reason why the graphics are not that good, its b/c every single building, bridge wall, you name it can be taken down. now that is fun.
so that is another game i can not wait to have.

I must say that the Outfit game does look enjoyable. It does lack in graphics although I have a more bigger reason as to why it lacks in graphic quality becuase it was ment to be an xbox game but Microsoft made devlopers creat their games for the 360.

At first when I saw that game age's back at E3 I thought it looked nothing special and the graphics look pathetic. Now I have seen it running in game and the graphics have been polished appon so it looks more otwards a 360 game than an xbox game (as what it was intentionaly for) it looks like a good piece of work.

wow i did not know that, cool.
i have to say, i am suprised how impressive imported games are looking, like fardry. i can not wait to see FEAR (the best looking pc game at the momment) on the xbox 360.

fear coming out on the 360?


you know, i want another crash bandicoot game with the old style story mode to it, aswell as some online gaming options. i loved the series as a child, and i think they need to make one a bit more teen oreinted and more interesting to adults aswell. these recent crash games are all racing n such, and we havnt had a real one since the wrath of cortex. it was ok but seems a bit kidish.

Yeah Fear is definatly coming to the 360 and should be very good. I must agrre with you anubis and say I thought the origional Crash Bandicoot was the best followed by the second. I really enjoyed Crash Bandicoot and thought it was alot better than Mario 64.
