Good Comparison Of Both Versions Of PS3

[clips]

i found this at gaming age...it does a decent job of breakin\' down both versions of ps3\'s...of course most of you nerds and tech heads probably already know this stuff, but for those of us that don\'t have a clue about what the real diffrence is between the two, i think this article can come in handy...:fro:

good find

After reading this, am I wrong in thinking the cheaper version is just as good?
 
HDMI seems pointless?

HDMI is completely pointless if the movie studio does not enable HDCP.

and two price points is stupid.

HDMI gives you a digital signal though, I don\'t think Multi-AV does that?

I\'m leaning towards the 60GB model, but I\'m a lot more positive towards the 20GB model now than before, mainly because movie studios aren\'t using ICT.

Looks like I just saved a hundred bucks on a PS3 then...
 
One store I found was accepting pre-orders, though.. and they sold them out. FYE.
 
Heh, I asked her about Wii and she kinda looked at me. I said, "Never heard of it?" Ok then.

After reading this, I\'m guessing most of their production capacity is going to be devoted to the cheaper $499.00 model.  It seems there will be a more limited market for the added features of the $599 model.  Perhaps that\'s the way it should be.  
 
Instead of a "normal" model and a "crippled" model ala Microsoft, they will have a "normal" model and a more advanced model for those who don\'t care about the price tag.

The 20GB version doesn\'t have Wi-Fi or memory card slots. WTF?

"Sony has since confirmed that they will also release a wireless WiFi adapter for Core owners who wish to upgrade."

Or I could just buy it built-in and not worry about it.

...

Core version.

\'Tard pack.
Helllllllllooooooooooooo...........Microsoft...err...Sony

it\'s still over priced.

there is no crippled 360.

it\'s still over priced.

I think its time we seperate overpriced and expensive.

The PS3 is expensive,  not overpriced.

HDMI gives you a digital signal though, I don\'t think Multi-AV does that?

HDMI is a pure digital signal.  Multi-AV component cables are not pure digital so

HDMI > AV-component

I think it\'s time we establish "opinion".
In my opinion, it\'s over priced. Anything extra, Blu-Ray playback, wi-fi and what not, it\'s not needed. What is needed is a simple console, which lowers price.

i wouldnt say its overpriced. Their losing like 200-300 dollars a console. I think they went about the extremely expensive production all wrong, which obviously leads to having to release a more expensive console to the public. Which is the same thing LIC said but..i dont think overpriced is the right word. For whats in it, its a great deal..but this is a console.

there is no crippled 360.

bet on that?

and it\'s not "overpriced", it\'s expensive
no need to argue semantics.

As an audio/video enthusiast, I prefer the $600 version that have HDMI.  The 60 GB, and other stuffs wouldn\'t hurt either.
