My bad uni, I forgot you were in Cyprus.

And all you people who think it\'s okay to pay this outrageous price for a system, congratulations, if you do, then just expect to pay this and even more the next generations.

Like it because you want high definition DVDs and don\'t mind the Blu-Ray format as the way to do that.

And in my opinion, this is idiotic. Defend paying an outrageous amount for a game console , so that you can play Blu-Ray films? Am I the only one who buys a system to play games and not movies? Come on. Couple this with insane comments by Sony like. " we don\'t even need launch games" or "its actually cheap" and I refuse to support the company any longer. All they are doing is pissing on the consumers who buy it. Their arrogance is saying that they have no interest in the gaming market and that, in reality, the PS3 is a platform a for  movie format. You want to support that, fine, but I will choose to support a platform that is for gaming, because that is what I want of a gaming console.

Ahm...you missed the point here. In that shop I was told the PS3 "core" version will cost 350CYP. Thats the same price as the premium 360 in my area. I am not refering to global price because I dont know yet. But I know what I have been told in a shop in my country

Do you think before you post? Yeah, it\'s the "same price" as PREMIUM 360. So the crippled version of the PS3 is the same price as the non-crippled version of the 360. Brilliant. And when I say, "crippled", I mean lacking features.

All the name calling/capt Obviousing eachother ( very childish behaviour ) aside....

What do you expect? Get over it Mr.Polite / Forum Monitor.

The fact you feel the need to call me Mr Polite / Forum monitor is evidence you obviously felt like i set you back into your place.

yeah, a real Nice 1

millions will buy the PS3 solely because it plays Blu-Ray movies

that cannot be denied.

Atleast until blu-ray players aren\'t 4 digits anymore.

You didn\'t "set me back in place" or any of that nosense, I just love how you think anyone cares about what is polite on his forum. Get over it.

Until it happens, it can be denied. Until it happens, you only assume it\'ll happen. Don\'t pass off what may happen as already happening or as a fact.

If someone wants a high def DVD player, this is not idiotic.
 
Just because you don\'t like this feature doesn\'t mean someone else can\'t.
 
You are not the only one who buys a game console just for games, but in this day and age, don\'t think for one second that everyone else only considers games and nothing else as well.

Do you think before you post? Yeah, it\'s the "same price" as PREMIUM 360. So the crippled version of the PS3 is the same price as the non-crippled version of the 360. Brilliant. And when I say, "crippled", I mean lacking features.

1)Exactly. The supposed "crippled" PS3 lacks features compared to the premium PS3 but has more than the "premium" 360.

Who cares if the complete 360 package is called...PREMIUM, when I can get the supposed lacking PS3 version which has MORE features than the PREMIUM 360 [COLOR="red"]at the same price?[/COLOR]

2)Also why do you care about the lacking features when the only thing you care about are games?

3)Like always you are trying to rant about anything PS3 related.

Well, the extra storage BluRay provides can be pretty nice :

- for ingame sound samples which do not necessarily need ultra quick acces times. Repeating sound samples coupled with improved visuals equals unbalanced progression. It would be nice to see that \'fixed\' by means of BluRay.

You didn\'t "set me back in place" or any of that nosense, I just love how you think anyone cares about what is polite on his forum. Get over it.

Please learn to read. I said \'...you obviously FELT like i set you back into your place\'.
Whatever the case was, you need to get over it. As to what i think about who cares about what on this forum ; your own, false, assumptions.

Anyway...calling people Capt. Obvious all the time just because your opinion on a matter differs from theirs, doesn\'t help clarity of discussion.

To bad they haven\'t made a succesful DL BluRay yet. But if you are just comparing the storage of Bluray > DVD, then, whoopie. You can fit some high res textures and more CGI. How does that enhance the gameplay? Oh, it doesn\'t.

And that improves the game, how? You get better sound and better graphics. You ignore the gameplay completely. Typical of the people who are all about the PS3. All they want to do is debate what Bluray offers or how the graphics are improved. Sorry, I don\'t care about that. Graphcis, in my opinion, are at a point of diminishing returns. If I want graphics, I\'ll pay for the less expensive Xbox 360 and if I want games, I\'ll buy the Wii. What does that leave for the PS3? Bluray movies? Sorry, if I want high-def movies, I\'ll go HD-DVD.

Because all the PS3 fanboys do is bring up "features". You all ignore that the features of the PS3 don\'t warrant the price for a game console.

I wish I could be there the exact moment when MM feels like a fool for paying out the ass for a system that offers nothing but enhanced graphics over the last generation..Oh and it plays movies!

:rolleyes:

Yeah, you guys are both right. Games suck.

I\'m getting into drugs and gang violence instead.

It\'s rad. Try it.
