    This is ridiculous. The Killzone demo APPEARS to be real time, and looks absolutely stunning.

    Yeah, killzone demo was most definatly the best of the bunch. Although is it just me or do I notice a trend with most of the PS3 games being FPS's featuring huge battles with hundreds of generic soldiers fighting against each other. Really does make me wonder what bungie is cooking up for halo 3 especially in that they have about a year to finish it up before PS3 is released since that's when it's supposed to be released in order to counter the PS3 launch.

    If by "most", you mean "1", then you're correct.

    I don't like the new controller........ but it's really hard to come up with some thing better than the Dual Shock 2.

    merged because... well, just because...

    even with the price drop, I'm torn on when/if I'll buy a PS3. I'd like to get my job and living situation under control first, and none of the current titles are that engrossing.

    I do really like what I've seen from the Metal Gear Solid 4 demos, and that's currently the one and only reason I can see myself getting a PS3 (and is that reason enough?). Also, being a Final Fantasy fanboy, I'm looking forward to XIII (as XII was the first one to really impress me in a long while), but I'll wait to see before regarding that one as a reason to go out and get this console...

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    At the end of the day, you're still paying five hundred dollars for a video game console.

    your point being?

    I own a Wii, PS2 and NDS currently (in use that is). Will get PSP and PS3 later this year/next year. Expensive? Yes. But I have a job. And currently saving money for a house as well. Currently at 10%-15% (pointing this out to show I don't care its expensive... )

    Well, there's lots of things you can get with $500....
    Like some sweet speakers for your entertainment center, for example.
    ....OR two Wiis =o

    Apparently $500 isn't enough for el_boss, however, who intends to drop another $200 for his rock band equipment!

    Still, I've had tons of friends that've jumped on the XBOX360 bandwagon, only to be met by the red rings of death more than once.This isn't a console war thread though, so I'll leave it at that.

    PS3 is starting off a little slow, but watching the trailer for MGS4 really got me pumped. MGS2 was the first game I got on PS2 and, as much as people said it sucked, I really liked it. Other games I look forward to are, as to be expected, FF and RE5 (even though it's being released on XBOX360 as well).

    ... But I can't even afford a Wii right now. Oh well. xD

    You may want to seriously do that, considering Microsoft has not touched the topic of whether or not the XBox 360 is backwards compatible. Anything for them bastards to get more money.

    And, the PS3 Controller is seriously in need of remodelling and restructuring. The current PS2 DS Controller is perfect.

    Square is evil for showing such a great tech demo that will never see the light of a release [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]. I agree with every one else bout the controllers having a crappy design but the system itself looks pimp. Plus 3 different colors dunno which to choose.

    For the appearance of the PS3 I'll reserve my comments first. Remember when the PS2 first came out and people were complaining about it's deisgn? I hated it as well back then but now I think the PS2 looks great.

    You're right about the Spider-man font however....... It struck me immediately when I saw the logo. The PS1 and PS2 logos were more unique.
