I heard there will be some cross gen titles in the beginning so you could still play some of the new titles on the PS3.lots of meh from the "reveal." the only thing that really stood out to me was the increase of servers to 300k from the current lot of 15k.
the only thing that made it stand out over the ps4 was its "media center" hub capability and maybe the new fidelity of the kinnect (when i play a video game, i want to sit my ass down and not jump around or interact that much with a game) both of which probably wont help it top the PS4.
i dont see myself getting a PS4 until there are enough games out that make it worth while since my PS3 games wont work....though if i do get a new system, Gamefly will keep my occupied until moar games come out i suppose.
same here. plus there's plenty of awesome stuff still to come for ps3 (gta5, gt6...)Other then that I have a list of games I want to get for the PS3 before I buy a PS4 or XBOX One anyway. Im not in a hurry either.
how is a HTPC clumsy? because theres a keyboard and mouse? id rather use that instead of a gaming remote and gestures to type something out. other then the fact that its basically a HTPC that is also its own gaming system, there is nothing that this does that other products out dont.There is stuff out there now, but we have to admit it's clumsy.
http://www.theonion.com/articles/father-excitedly-tells-10yearold-son-about-new-vid,32518/i keep a wii around because sometimes i get the burning desire to replay those games. also, some of the newer mario games are quite fun, galaxy was pretty cool. and new SMB was quite fun too. especially since you could play up to 4 people at once.
Ghosts isnt even out yet, Sparky...I can see why Zelda is more engaging than COD Ghost... Really?
.......I guess I don't get it. This is a console that offers a marginal improvement over the last generation, and now has more PC-like features while not calling itself a PC. It has more PC like graphics, but is still not as good. It allows you to watch TV on your TV, just like you can with a PC, or watch streaming movies in HD just like a PC. It allows you to control the unit via a remote or controller, just like a PC.
So this is better than a PC because it A) cannot use a keyboard, B) has a monthly subscription fee for a service that's free on PC and the rest of your house, C) is not upgradeable.
I guess I just don't get what the allure is. Hell, it even looks like a HTPC. Also, I promise you, if you're so old that you can't figure out how to turn a computer on and load up the internets, you aren't figuring it out on a sexbox. The future isn't going to be on a sexbox, it'll be on a single PC operating the whole house. Imagine having one unit in your basement with terabytes of storage and multiple access wireless connections (ie TV, keyboard, mouse, or a remote for 80 year old bdamshen). Then you can access all of your files from any room and use the system from anywhere, with multiple people at the same time, for TV, internets, and gaming.
The _only_ reason I can see to buy this is that there will be xbox exclusive games.
HAL said:I'm sorry Sandwich, I can't let you do that.
WHO CARES?!?!There is literally no difference in plugging a PC in next to your TV and hooking up an HDMI, ethernet, sound, and power cable, compared to a sexbox, which requires an HDMI, sound, ethernet or wireless, and a power cable.
Yes, your console is set until it gets the red ring of death, then instead of replacing the power supply, you wait a couple weeks for a new console. I'm on year 8 or so with my current PC, and the only thing I had to change was a video card once, and I use that computer pretty much every day. Do people get daily use out of their sex box on the same unit for 8 years? Only "maintenance" i had to do, besides the vidya card, was to format and reinstall my OS, as I like to do after a few years of intertoobz. I'll admit it was a heady but unnecessary task, but if the chexbox is going to become more integrated, you can expect more viruses and malware on that, too.
I can play all of the current games on my 8 year old CPU, most at very high graphics. Most people who have left the house in the last 10 years have come in contact with a PC, whether at work, at the bank, or elsewhere. Anybody who doesn't know how to log in and run a program on windows 7 or whatever garbage apple has right now, really isn't going to be able to use an xbox.
Yes, but how much are games for the PC vs games for a console? Free is a damn good price for a PC game, try getting free games for a console.the big difference is cost. even when it first launched, the ps3 was about $600. it'd be a bit of a challenge to build a comparable PC. you can get a ps3 for $250 nowadays.
are we talking retail price or torrent price?Yes, but how much are games for the PC vs games for a console? Free is a damn good price for a PC game, try getting free games for a console.
Hell, Microsoft wants to CHARGE YOU TO BORROW GAMES with the Xbox One.
