New controller design for PS3 just hours away.

Perhaps..

I guess it could possibly earn it\'s pricetag though I haven\'t seen anything yet.  At the very least it guranteed I don\'t get it at launch.

It\'s official, Sony has not one single idea .. Motion sensing? Not as advanced as the Wii, but exactly like the GBA games that had the \'tilt\' feature...Hmph.

Nintendo has my money this generation, at least the motion sensing isn\'t an after thought for them.

Oh and that price tag = the gay. Core package? Let\'s just rip off MS while we\'re at it..... Love how the Sony fanboys think it\'s a great idea now, when it was a terrible idea on MS\'s part.

PS3 and Xbox 360 = More sequels, pretty graphics and no original games , once again.

From the things I ve seen so far from it I am willing to spend anything.

The games they showed were mindblowing. Thats what I am talking about. This felt like next gen. For the first time

You can use up to probably 7 controllers, it has a 20GB HD as standard (60GB is $599), the controller has motion sensing and Sony seems to have taken online service very seriously

Remove your mouth from Sony\'s nutsack, please. There was nothing mindblowing in that conference. Will it sell out launch? Yeah, was it mind blowing? Oh hell no.

[Evi]

no original games

Right. Of course. Not one original game in the entire console\'s lifespan.

It\'s official, Sony has not one single idea .. Motion sensing? Not as advanced as the Wii, but exactly like the GBA games that had the \'tilt\' feature...Hmph.

That\'s what I thought. Sony copied a cheap GameBoy idea. Enjoy your Warhawk version of Yoshi\'s Topsy Turvy.
 
Nah, it does open up some of the innovations like juking in Madden. I should say, enjoy your hi-def, watered down Wii. ;]
 
Is it really $600?
 
I won\'t get one at that price... Not this year... Wonder if I can get Sony to send me one, heh.

LIC, you can hop off the "originality" bandwagon, noone cares.
companies copy each other everyday, always have, always will.
you think nintendo has original games lined up?
they are the absolute worst, when\'s the last time they started a new franchise?  10 years ago?
perhaps 2% of all games created are truly "original"

i don\'t like the idea of motion sensing anyways, but using a normal shaped gamepad and not a faggoty wand seems more appropriate

default, how i debate?
i find practicality and rationality, then stick to it.

I guess Pikmin, Brain Age, Animal Crossing and Nintendogs were the most recent new franchises. And they were all unique for better (first three) or worse (Nintendogs).
 
Smash Brothers was something of a popular game, and that\'s in its second iteration.
 
But why look at successful trends when you can stick your head in the sand and pay whatever limbs you have left after the Xbox 360 launch for the same system plus a fancy DVD player.
 
Heh, I just get a kick out of you on the defensive. ;]
 
But you\'re right, though, screw "originality." Fucking developers trying to be creative. That\'s so.... I can\'t even pretend to find the logic in that one. Or, if you will, the practicality and rationality of it.
 
Or maybe paying $600 for PS2.5 is the rational part.

That\'s so freakin lame haha.

Like really...GBA catridges were as advanced as that idea. It\'s just a pointless tack on at this point.

i guess i should have said "original" franchise.

nintendogs = dogz and catz
brainage isn\'t a "franchise"
nevr played "animal crossing" as i\'m not 7 years old, but i\'ll give you that one.
pikmin = lemmings.

and how is wii not nintendo 64.3?

why pay?
who has the most popular franchises sitting in only thier corner again?

shouldn\'t you be looking for a new gameboy version to buy anyways?

(you da man, eik!)

Right. Of course. Not one original game in the entire console\'s lifespan.

 Ignore him. You cant take seriously someone who in the past posted in these forums that he hopes PS3 fails.

Hope it fails? I couldn\'t care less if it fails.
I\'m not buying one.

And new franchises does not mean original. It is the direction in which the franchises go. Nintendo is the only one this generation trying something new. I\'m sorry, but the tilting action is nothing new, friggin\' GBA games done that - whoopie. And $600 bucks for a console? Nothing ..NOTHING can justify that price.

As I said ignore him

prices need justified now?

ever hear of perceived value?

i remember people giggling and laughing, saying the PS3 would be 800$+
now they mocking 600$
:rolleyes:

I thought Xbox was overpriced... This makes Xbox 360 look like a deal.
 
In fairness, the PS3 controller is more than GameBoy tilt sensor. The tilt sensor worked from left to right and basically sucked. The PS3 controller can also sense back and forth, up and down.
 
Of course, the Wii controller can sense 360 degrees in full 3D, sense depth, sense speed, sense physical orientation and be used like a laser pointer/light gun. It even knows how far from the tv you are.  They can program it so you can\'t "cheat" in shooting games like we all did playing Duck Hunt.
 
Sony recognized Nintendo\'s good idea and cashed in on it as effectively as they could between Boomerang and DualShock 3. (Minus the Shock.)

If you have nothing to add to this conversation, then shut the hell up and quit posting.

I don\'t care what you come up with, there is no way $600 is any kind of value. People mocked the Xbox 360 for it\'s outrageous price tag, so what\'s the big difference? Blu-Ray? A HD? You\'re willing to pay out the ass for those two things?

PS 2.5, Eik nailed it. It\'ll have plenty of sequels that feature nothing but improved graphics, if that is what you want, fine, but I for one am tired of the endless sequels with no marked improvements other than graphics. That\'s the main reason I never picked up a PSP and it\'ll be the reason that I won\'t pick up a PS3.

As for sells, yes, it\'ll sell out at launch, but let\'s see how it does long term. After the intial rush, will they still be able to sell them at the $500 - $600 dollar range? Espically when Nintendo will be offering their system at around $200 bucks.

/ goes to reserve his Nintendo Wii , even if it does have a gay name.

Oh and..

nintendogs = dogz and catz
brainage isn\'t a "franchise"

pikmin = lemmings.

What is Brainage not a franchise? They are goin\' to produce more in the series, that makes it a franchise, even if it is based off some Japanese tests.

As for the Animal Crossing remark, that is like saying I can\'t enjoy Grand Theft Auto, because I\'m not a "thug". It was a solid game that got rave reviews, sorry that you can\'t swallow your pride and play it.. It also has endless replay value, hell my fiance still plays it at least once every two days.

Oh and Pikimin = the greatness.

personally, i thought the "boomerang" looked comfortable
i like wider controllers

pikmin was indeed fun, i drowned every little one i came across

"brain age" is not an original franchise when tiger electronics has been making those kind of games for decades.

GTA had one "thug" title.  nice stereotype, you always this racist?
maybe the next one will feature a "ginger" paperboy who rides around town throwing rocks at cats

and speaking of franchises, you going to miss out on a ton of titles without a PS3
pity
