is this thing for real:

[Arrrhalomynn]

It looks pretty cool and those specs are pretty good too, but wouldn't it need more than 256 mb ram?

[TraderJake]

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.

[Sureshot]

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.

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.

[CatchFiveBats]

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!

WOW I think that is the biggest smart ass comment I have ever seen you make.

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.

[tholly]

im sold...but i guess im just a sucker for new systems

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Has there ever been a system where 95% of the games aren't shit? I think not.
   
Yes the thing looks damn sexy indeed. And there's a rockstar western coming out for it. YES!!!

[Lord Nepenthean]

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.

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
