Question on PS3 / Xbox 360

[BacktoBasics]

This thread has turned into the epitome of stupidty.

I play my Atari 2600 on my HDTV.. now that is the !!! Those blocks never looked better.

[to21]

I have a 32" Sony EDTV (between HD and SD). It looks utterly fantastic. I don't feel the need to go blow a wad of cash just so I can play games at the highest possible resolution. Apparently neither does the OP. If you're going to suggest he listens to you, you might want to provide him with more of a rationale than "it makes sense to me".

Because last I checked, the gameplay is what makes games great. I'd rather have 10 great games in SD than 1 or 2 games in HD. If a person is on a constricted budget, they don't always have the option to buy the biggest and best.

R U my wife?

You wanted a reason why I said to buy the HDTV first and I gave you one, and you still are n'.

I've never seen a game in non-HD quality because I 've heard from people it brun through your cornea and you eventually go blind.

Oh hey Paul.. found out you need to get the 80 gig PS ps2 if you want to play old PS3 games.. but it will only play 80% of those games.. you need to see if you can find one of the old 60 gigs though cause they play all of them.

[ynh]

Here are the different types.

40gb: cannot play PS2 games, reduced usb ports, no SD card reader, comes in various colors

60gb: plays all PS games, 4 usb ports, SD card reader, best backwards' compatibility software

80gb: largest hard drive, plays about 80% of PS2 games, SD card readers, 4 usb ports

[Ronaldo McDonald]

Yea, I ended up buying a 60 GB yesterday.

I hope you have the HDTV already dude. Haven't you heard it's pointless to have the PS3 w/o the glitter.

[ynh]

Oh trust me he does. Probably better then anyone here has.

[ynh]

Now get your god damn 360 online so we can play.

OH and pick up Call of Duty 4/ Call of Duty 2/ Bio shock/ Dead Rising

And get Drakes Fourtain for the PS3.

I played with the 360 tonight, and man, the controler have killed my hands; it hurt like @#$%^

I much prefer the PS2 controler (although thr PS3 controler might be different)

If you are looking for a video game console:

XBOX 360>>>>>>>>>>>>>>PS3

If you are looking for a blue ray disc player:

PS3>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>XBOX 360


It is really that simple.

I just bought a PS3 yesterday…I love it.

360 is great too but my choice was based on Blu Ray (if you have netflix it’s a great deal) and my buddy who has had to send back his XBOX time and time again.

Their both great systems.

Its lighter, wireless and is a motion sensor thingy for some games. No rumble pak like the dual shock. The difference it weight was really weird at first but I prefer it.

they recently made new dualshocks though. they are a tad heavier, but still lighter than the PS2 controllers. they are quite nice.

now the new dual shock won't have the motion sensor aspect right?

[Evan]

On and to the thread starter…they will look great on a regular TV from what I have seen. Typically non hd looks awful on a hd tv…so its in reverse.

I'm gonna buy a PS3 as well.

I was about to buy an Xbox 360 (the one I played with yesterday) from a friend; he bought it in December 2007, but he only has the Microsoft guarantee; he didn't buy the store guarantee (which is much better, because if they have to replace it following a big technical issue, it will be with a brand new, and the manufacturer won't replace it with a brand new). It's too late for me to buy the store guarantee (you have 30 days to do it after buying the system).
Plus, considering the high return rate for ther 360.......

Too bad, because, because my friend got me a nice deal: 400$ (canadian) with 9 games (and good ones: Assassin's Creed, Gears of War, Pro Evolution Soccer 2007, etc....), and an external cooler.

So, I'm gonna get a brand new PS3 with the store guarantee (70$ for 2 years, not bad)

Plus, I much much prefer the PS3 controller over the 360's

[Evan]

Also it has wireless internet which is awesome...
