First Ps3 Pictures


Somehow that design reminds me of turbo duo...

Okay Dokay!

Just sat through the whole presentation!

There was no sign of that wierd controller, so is it definately genuine? The PS3 itself looks fine to me, asthetically speaking. quite large-but that's okay!

The specs just sound ridiculous- as powerful as 4 P4s, 35gig bus speeds etc. But are lost on me.

The demos however made me wanna weep! Killzone? If that is the game it is incredible! That eye thing...wow


But the question for me is, with all this extra power, the actual programming of the games is surely gonna be much more complex, longer etc. All these new possibilities are gonna be either explored or not. So are we gonna see fewer games, but better crafted ones. Games that the graphics aren't there to look nice, but are actually going to create more atmosphere, make us more 'emotionally' part of the game etc? Or are we gonna see endless EA churned out rubbish?

I like to think that the sharks will still churn out the pointless sequals and licensed garbage. But the developers that take the time to craft something wonderful will be so much better, that the general public can't help but buy these games, and the industry will go forward.

That, ladies and Gentlemen is my hope for the future. (Cue music)...Thank you, and good night!


Applause


beer
 
the 3rd party will come in and correct that beast of a controller.

and yeah, the press vid. amazing, eh? those bastards better not be shitting us, cuz those technical demos were verry impressive.

remember the unreal engine demo and the fight night demo? real time!!!! everything else was great, too. man, i hope the next gen games make full use of this power.
 
Just seen the controller was oficial <_<

But I ain't gonna let that spoil MY party! Todays a great day! Let's dance, Mr Sony and me....

At least the Xbox 360 system and controller look alright... I wasn't impressed by them but damn it looked way better than THIS junk.

but the xbox 360 controllers are virtualy identical to the xboxs... I agree though the ps3 controller are seriously horrible, and WHY does the d-pad still appear where the left analogue should? I mean the dualshock controller was a knee jerk reaction to the n64 controller and it pissed me off that it didn't change even slightly for the ps2 but this just takes the piss really.

As for the specs wow from the geek in me but a big "WHO CARES" from the gamer. I'd much rather hear about the games than the specs of the machine, but maybe thats just me.

Visually, the controller sucks but the actual machine is alright, far better looking than either the psx or the ps2.

Word is it's much easier to program for this thing than the PS2 ever was, mostly due to the PC-like architecture. And that's from 3rd party developers, not Sony.

Ahh, but specs DO effect gameplay. Think physics and Half-Life 2.

Another blow for M$- LIMITED backwards compatability (ps3 is fully compatable with both ps2 and ps1). This is due to emulation issues, so only xbox's top selling and best games will be playable on the 360. Not happy about that at all.

You ain't bothered about the specs, but you are bothered how it looks? How does how it looks affect gameplay... :huh:

But the long presentation had LOTS of game demos-and they seemed genuinly in game live demos. The MTV Xbox 360 was very lacking in actually seeing what their games will look like!

Did anyone else think it was funny, how everything that Xbox is trying to push as a major feature (ie. the whole networked home thing), Sony just tosses off, as if "and of course it will be this blah blah blah", as to make the Xbox claims seem very last year! Very clever....


@Kknd_off, that wasn't the dance I had in mind...but it looks fun! Maybe if you could reverse the 'joy'stick, and throw in a 'vibrating' feature you've covered all my needs....

xbox team will not let sony win by a whole teraflop. Seems most power for xbox is the cpu's and most power for ps3 is the gpu. Is that correct? also remember the xbox 360 is not out yet......................

OMG!! Blutooth controllers. i told ya so!!!
 
BUMP!

Hang a-friggin-bout!
In the 'Sony E3 2005 Press Conference' the guys are using a duelshock control to control the ps3!

EDIT: OMGOMGOMGOMG. They remade my finalfantasy VII in a demo OMGOMG!!!
 
i don't really give a crap about the controllers, by the time i would get a ps3 i'm sure there will be a few 3rd party controllers to choose from by then.

Also, if it has USB ports, couldn't I just use my game pad from my pc or no?
