I'm wondering what the through pass will be like in pes6...
How is it in WE10 for those who had their hands on it already?
Ko_nami said:Err...Microsoft have only released one console prior to the Xbox 360. :erm:
Sony has released two consoles prior to the PS3. I'd say that makes them the more experienced company in the gaming market, wouldn't you?
Sony is currently dominating the gaming market. If you can't admit that then you're one severely deluded individual. :shocking: I mean, this is a company who overtook the experienced Nintendo and Sega and made them look like amateurs.
In any case, you're comparing two companies who specialise in two entirely different industries.
Sony are well known for their electronic products such as TVs, VCRs, Hi-Fis, Walkmans, Vaio PCs (and laptops), Game consoles etc, etc. Add the fact that 95% of their products are manufactured in Japan.
Whereas Microsoft is well known for their Computer Software and a couple of Game consoles - that's about it. And I seriously doubt that Microsoft's products are manufactured in Japan.
Also, let's not forget that Japan is the Holy Grail for manufacturing standards.Ask any business analyst where the best products are manufactured and the answer would almost always be Japan.
Germany is the only other country that compares to Japan when it comes to manufacturing standards. But, that's irrelevant to this topic.
Judging by your ill-informed reply, you must obviously be an Xbox fanboy who realises that his Xbox 360 will be technologically outdated just a year after its release.
Agreed.
i can see you are a sony bitch, let me take yuo wey back before ps one came out and microsfot was owning the online pc gaming so they thought to bring a console out and take over sony wich they are doing. i kno sony have made more consoles i am not an xbox fan boy and to even think of that when there are ppl sucking sony ass ( for sum strange reason) sony are out ragous and i bet that the ps3 will be the end of sony's consoles. you seem to be siding with sony due to you mention that sony making tv's etc wich in my view doesnt make them experts at consoles, and microsoft experts at online GAMING and games technology wich in my view makes them much more equiped at ruling the console market. i used to be a ps fan and i actually made my mind up that xbox would be shit etc but i honestly have to say that the graphics and overall experience is 100% better on xbox, the fact is that sony are in wey over their head with the never tested or well known hardware that is going into the ps3 i just think it will fail. with xbox it has 4 GPU's 512ram etc wich is more than capable and infact could take over from ps3. gd luck to you sir if your buing one i hope all goes well cus after all its only a media system not life or death.
p.s sorry for the way i layed out my posts i was just a lil anoyed at ppl ruling out xbox to ps3 when its not even tested.

I think the problem had something to do with faulty power cables causing the Xbox console to overheat or something like that. I also remember that Microsoft offered everyone who bought those consoles replacement power cables. I sense that Sony would do the same if such a situation occurred. But to this day, no such mishap has occurred with the PS1 and PS2.![]()

Watch this picture... only PS2 controllers!

Hopefully they build a 360 stand as well. If not, you also can forget about the 360 demo at Marketplace.

PS2 slimline did have a similar problem to the Xbox powerpack, infact they made this superb support website to help us detect if we had a faulty one....

Ko_nami said:Is that what you’re basing most of your "Microsoft are more experienced than Sony at gaming" argument on? Online gaming?
I don't know about you but I've always preferred playing against the CPU or with friends and family. I’m sorry but online gaming is not for me. :no:
In my opinion online gaming is only a feature of a game. It doesn't determine how good the game is which is what you seem to be insinuating. If I bought a game that doesn’t allow online gaming then I’m not too bothered to be honest. As long as the game itself is good in terms of playability, graphics and sound then that’s okay by me.
Microsoft are only more experienced at PC gaming when compared to Sony. Now I don’t know about you but console gaming and PC gaming are two entirely different standards of gaming, wouldn’t you? Prior to the first Xbox, Microsoft had no experience whatsoever at manufacturing gaming hardware. And that's a fact. Whereas Sony had already produced the PS1 and the PS2 by the time the first Xbox was released.
In regards to the actual hardware in the PS3, well you can say that about any new console cant you? All new consoles are likely to have their problems at first especially when the new technology is brand-spanking new and untested.
But I don’t think that this will cause major problems for Sony and the PS3. I’m sure that any problems identified after the release will be rectified within a few months. Sony are professionals remember as are Microsoft. They won’t sell a product that has fundamental errors in the hardware. And even if they did sell a product with such errors, they'd have to offer replacements or repairs.
If I can remember correctly, the first Xbox had a similar problem with its hardware during the first year of release. I think the problem had something to do with faulty power cables causing the Xbox console to overheat or something like that. I also remember that Microsoft offered everyone who bought those consoles replacement power cables. I sense that Sony would do the same if such a situation occurred. But to this day, no such mishap has occurred with the PS1 and PS2.![]()
I’m sure that any hardware problems with the PS3 will be dealt with swiftly after a year or so after release. This wouldn’t affect me one bit though. I was planning on buying a PS3 a good year or two after release so that any hardware problems are fixed, the price will be much, much more affordable and the selection of games will only increase from there onwards.![]()
Like I said, I’m not really interested in online gaming. If you want to stick with your Xbox based on the quality of its online gaming, then that’s fine.![]()
But please don’t come out with statements such as Microsoft are more experienced in the gaming market than Sony simply because of their online gaming features and the fact that they’ve been developing PC games for donkeys years. :shocking:
shankly is god said:nah mate the online is just as you said a bonus, microsoft is more at hand with hardware like grapics card and inital components. the only reason ppl are still clining on to sony is because they made an old console so ppl are afraid to admit that sony is far outdated and have no idea what there doing
Psimonius said:Of course, if Blu-Ray sucks ass and the discs are stupidly priced (as all Sony equipment is) then it could well bomb.
Ko_nami said:Like I said earlier, I expect prices (the console and the games themselves) to be high during the first year or two. This will lead to extremely slow sales and you know what happens when somethings not selling.
Let me put it this way:
Slow sales = Price drop![]()
I believe the demand for the PS3 and its games will always be there.
I’ll have to admit that the risk is there with the Blu-Ray DVD (BD-Video) as there aren't that many homes in the UK (or around the world for that matter) that have HD-TVs so that you can truly appreciate the picture quality. Plus the fact that many consumers just aren't looking to switch from the DVD format and yeah, you can say it's a risk. But also remember that you can't exactly expect the Blu-Ray/HD-DVD format to take off straight away like the DVD did. In my honest opinion, the public is at least 5 years away from switching over to a new video format. So in that sense, at least the PS3 (and to an extent the Xbox 360) is future-proof.
The major issue with the PS3 has always been with the price. If the PS3 was going to retail at £150, everyone would go out and buy one - no questions asked.![]()
That's just how the market operates I'm afraid.
