Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Arrrhalomynn on May 16, 2005, 04:43:20 PM It looks pretty cool and those specs are pretty good too, but wouldn't it need more than 256 mb ram?
Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: TraderJake on May 16, 2005, 04:45:48 PM I  believe it has a total of 512, 256 for floating point computations and 256 GDDR3 for graphical computations.
With the exception of the controller, this thing is damn sexy, I forsee myself burning a large hole in my pockets when this thing comes out. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Sureshot on May 16, 2005, 04:48:48 PM I want to be excited, but I just can't be - new consoles don't do it for me.

I agree! We shall see how much it is going to be. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gee, why don't you go buy an iPod and a PowerBook and an Xbox 360 and a Porsche Boxter too. After all, since it has a cool DESIGN on the outside, that must mean it has good games and is made well. Oh, wait. I think I will buy one of those controllers though. I want to go to Africa within the next five years, and boomerangs aren't easy to come by in this century. I can probably use one of those to kill a few thousand rare birds and monkeys. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: CatchFiveBats on May 16, 2005, 07:22:04 PM I think it looks pretty sleek, but that doesn't guarantee good games or gameplay. If it plays as good as it looks, we're in for a treat!

It will be like the PS2 95% shit and 5% good stuff. All the games will look great but only 5% will be worth playing. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: tholly on May 16, 2005, 08:35:17 PM im sold...but i guess im just a sucker for new systems

And there's a rockstar western coming out for it. YES!!! Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Lord Nepenthean on May 17, 2005, 05:53:41 PM Quote Has there ever been a system where 95% of the games aren't shit? I think not. What, you mean like Dreamcast? Or maybe Neo Geo? How about Neo Geo Pocket Color? Master System? SNES? iQue? And, let's not forget the systems where 99-100% of the games sucked: TRS-80, CD-i, R-Zone, Game.com, Studio II, Virtual Boy, Channel F, Arcadia 2001, and so many more. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!

have you guys seen the trailer for killzone2? i am amazed at how many videos there are out there for PS3 already. i am also interested in what the 'Cell' can be used in (other electronics). that controller looks retarded Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Sauza12 on May 18, 2005, 07:37:15 AM Man, I just know I'm going to do something stupid like buy all three new systems on thier launch date. Watching E3 coverage is bad.

How bout a list? Show me the percentages of crappy versus good on all the systems ever made and then we'll see. Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Tynstar on May 18, 2005, 03:48:26 PM Ok is 80% crap better? Or was 95% to low?
Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on May 19, 2005, 12:57:35 PM Hmm, I get the feeling none of us are talking about the same thing.

Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!! E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: danvx6 on May 21, 2005, 07:11:01 AM The PS3 looks amazing and all, especially those tech demos at E3, but personally I'm gonna go for the Revolution as long as its controller isn't too "revolutionary"
Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: The Metamorphosing Leon on May 21, 2005, 02:51:17 PM Well I do know you're talking about the games. You got me there star boy.
Title: Re: PS3!!!!!!!!!!!  E3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Vladimir on May 25, 2005, 12:46:30 PM I want one... but man, that thing is even more ugly than the Xbox 360... It looks like a friggin scanner. And not a very good looking one at that. :(
