Considering the blu-ray quality issues so far, I think sony is going to have to rethink a lot of things come 2007...

Yeah, because that rumor by the guy who works for (what was it, toshiba?) stated otherwise. Like this was really something MS needed to get out there and squash. They've said since day one they wouldn't change the hardware down the line...

oh, so we're not talking about 1080 anymore, 4gb out of 20 is acceptable, and MS uses XviD?

10-15?? It's more like 5... I don't know how MS is going to stream HD to the tiny HDD they put in that system...

The fact that it's a blu-ray player has nothing to do with game prices, which is what this is about. Keep the "it's a blu ray player for half the cost, and it plays games..." conversation to the other 3 threads that are talking about it already...

First of all, I prefer xbox but forza blows...GT will sell more units than forza any day of the week. I own GT 3 and i've never played it, but forza flat out sucked... Sony has the RPG market with the exception of zelda. Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, etc...All hugely popular especially with...

Articles wouldn't load, but jesus. Why would you even make a statement like this on the dawn of your system's launch. People are already bitching to high heaven about the price of the console, and now you throw gasoline on the fire...

^wow... Bill is taking one foot off the boat, not jumping ship. He's been doing this a LONG time and has other, more important to him, things to do. If MS was in trouble he'd be giving some money back to it instead of billions upon billions to kids in africa. I think MS is NOT worried...

But you also play madden so nobody cares about your opinion =)> The HDMI thing makes no sense. They say they can do it, so they really have no reason not to do it. Since when is there a "we have too many accessories" movement in video games, especially when it's something people would...

Buy the only superstar series on xbox is Halo. Sony and nintendo have all the other "guaranteed seller" titles. If sony stumbles they'll be fine, they have to fall down a flight of stairs in order to take a major hit. Short of ps3's exploding, I think they'll weather the storm until next...

an HD-DVD bundle wouldn't appeal to anyone. Mainstream gamers won't need it because it doesn't play games, and hardcore users won't want it for (current) lack of HDMI ports... They've got to come up with some bundles that people want. Throwing in a project gotham game is no ones idea of a...

I think just dropping the core will save them some money, no? I think it'll be cheaper this fall, but you won't hear MS admit to it until the day it happens. Whether it's what's out now for less, or bundles that save you money, who knows, but they'll do something. Would be nice if they were...

Honestly, do you expect them to admit it? They want you to go buy one NOW, saying a price drop is coming would cut their summer sales in half...

Want to make fun of Wii as a compromise??

...I was expecting you to say it was somewhere else. You disappoint me...=)> Not for nothing, but isn't the ps3 going to be the ugliest blu-ray player available? Imagine you buy it just for a blu-ray player, isn't it going to look stupid next to your high-end components?

I completely agree with the big paragraph about it being an investment. His blu-ray stuff is lame. How about saying it will win because it's better, not because it can theoretically in the future hold more data. That's appealing to fanboys by using that. Anyone who's not a fanboy isn't going...

Not true, especially to sony users. The PS2 looks SO bad. Even 360 looks a lot better than xbox, and ps3 on SD will look lightyears ahead of ps2. Sony is going to be make or break with the blu-ray, whereas xbox can adopt whichever format (or both, if need-be), and I think from a consumer...

The xbox is able to add either format in the future, and I hope they change the way they deliver the content because not having HDMI output is a mistake to anyone considering buying an add-on. Once manufacturing costs come down I fully expect them to offer HDMI options. Sony fanboys spout off...

Because it doesn't matter honestly. If it fails, you're not out anything. Early adopters got a standalone, and anyone who buys a ps3 is buying it for the game playing abilities. A year from now, it'll either be the #1 or it'll be dead in the water, so it won't really effect anything. It...

If you're serious about blu-ray, but not willing to spend the $ to be an early adopter, the ps3 would only be the stop-gap much like the ps2 was intended to be. It'll serve your needs until blu-ray players get down to a reasonable price and then you'll replace it. That's it's intention, to...

The ps2 played DVD's horribly when standalone DVD players were as expensive or more expensive than the ps2. How is it a bad comparison? People bought the ps2 as a dvd player and they've paid for it because the quality was horrible. It was a tacked on feature and it STILL shows even though...

That's like saying the ps2 was a good DVD player when they were more expensive than the ps2. Sure, it's cheaper, but you got what you paid for. PS2 DVD playback is horrid. I'd rather watch the movie in Fullscreen SD on tv than watch the widescreen DVD on ps2... I would hope the ps3 isn't as...

2, 2, two posts in one...Gonna go get me a stick of that doubleming bubbly gum, yeehaw... Thanks. I don't get why people don't understand heat. You could sell the ps3 without a lid and it would still get too hot. It's not about where you place the vents, it's about the fans that you put...

Since I, and i'm sure others, are a little buzzed out on all the rumors and gossip, how about a quick recap to go along with these stories? A tease if you will...

Not for a gamer. For a kid or grandma maybe, but a player wouldn't settle to play with junk controllers unless he had to.
