    The new design looks cool, I think. But the controller looks like some crappy controller that MadKatz or someone would make. I like the DualShock 2 better.

    nah, the controller looks decent. I think they just overdid it a lil bit with those two ends sticking out too far. Other then that, I think it's pretty good, considering the button placement and comfort for the hands with the design.

    Although is it just me or do I notice a trend with most of the PS3 games being FPS's featuring huge battles with hundreds of generic soldiers fighting against each other.
    If by "most", you mean "1", then you're correct.
    I counted at least three. First there was that new game from insomniac where all the soldiers were running around fighitng alien monsters, then there was incognito's warhawk which featured even more infantry action in the beginning, and of course the killzone demonstration rounded off things quite nicely in the generic soldiers category. Plus Xbox 360 had a few games as well that followed this theme with gears of war, call of duty 2, and Quake 4. I'm getting a bit tired of all the damn soldiers and the epically big battles that are trying to outdo each other

    Warhawk is an aerial combat game, so scratch that off. Two games is not "most".

    Update: none of the videos except the Unreal Engine 3 and some of EA's stuff were in real time.

    wow i'm pretty cool with the design like i dont care much for those aspects but that controller looks pretty gay. It looks like their trying to take the XBOX style of controllers and i hated XBOX controllers...the curves are compeletly irrevelent.

    any of u guys watched the E3 preview of all the systems? So far for me PS3 is in the lead in hardware
    this is wat the said
    PS3-no pre-playing available,wat it doesnt make up for beuty makes up in brawn pre view of killzone prerendered or no?according 2 sony wat u saw is wat ur gonna c in the game
    Xbox 360-pre-play was available went against ps3 (i think doa vs killzone) it was killzone hands down
    Revolution-no games available no controler either,but nintendo said u can download all the old school snes games and etc, nintendo was a tad behind in the race
    in my books ps3 is the 1 2 look out for[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

    ow yea rumors on price is like 399$ so save up

    This is funny, because none of the games shown at E3 were even running on the hardware the PS3 will have, nor was it even running on a PS3 machine. The game demos were made and presented on high end pc's, the time they showed Killzone and all those other games the consoles GPU wasnt even finished yet.
    I like how Sony smoke clouds everyone and uses scripted cg scenes to win over people and crowds just like they did with their PS2. They pretty much LIE to their consumers and everyone just eats it up.
    I wouldnt say Sony is in the lead if you care about the games over graphics; theres no way to know which one will be more powerful untill they are released. Sony claimed PS2 would be much more powerful than the Dreamcast yet most Dreamcast games still look far superior.
    Big moves that will really make a difference are all the Japanese companies(derived from Square Enix and Capcom) Microsoft bought and the fact SquareEnix is now developing for all systems as well as Rockstar so Sony loses those two wildcards.
    I plan on getting the Nintendo system though, I've come to the conclusion none of todays games on Xbox or PS2 are really fun or original with the exceptions of games like Ninja Gaiden, and Katarmari Damacy.

    i found out awhile ago that the killzone 3 footage was real ingame, BUT it was running at lower than 5fps, and than later sped up to 60fps, so still doesnt clasify as real footage for me

    just thought i might add, the PS3 disk drive will be a "blu-ray disk drive" which means the games on PS3 have the potential to be 3-4x bigger than the normal DVDs. (blu-ray disk drive is sony's creation, xbox doesnt use it)

    PS3 is going to have the highest powered CPU using a new CPU called "CELL" designed by IBM and...(crap i forgot other company) which is supposely 3.2Gigz Its release is fall 2006 though... meeh.

    tinks what do you mean PS2 looks worse than dreamcast? the pics look a hell lot better. PS3 has capibility to run on all kinds of HDTV resolutions (thats awsome!!) and of course, backwards compatibility. PS3 supports WiFi yada yada, a hell lot of other crap...yada yada.

    oh and its predicted that XBOX 360 will hold the crown of the next generation systems until the end of 2007 where its predicted sony will bypass it once again and become crown (whad you expect? the release dates are 1 year apart!)

    u`re kidding right...

    God of War, DMC3, Knights of the Old Republic( I and II), Jade Empire, Destroy All Humans, GT4(all of them), Forza, GTA...

    and that`s just to name a few...

    BTW, no games shown by MS or Sony were running on real hardware...they were both displayed on high-end PCs...

    but at least they showed something...

    And that's why you'll believe anything that George W. Bush tells you.

    Sony is making a joke out of all of you. 10 year life span for the PS3? What shit is that. Maybe they shouldn't be making a supercomputer so people can actually afford it. They try to pigeon hole Xbox 360 as "Xbox 1.5" when PS3 won't even have any applications to actually utilize the vague benefits of its Cell chip. They probably have an ugly boomerang controller for now so they can rip Nintendo off again at next year's E3.

    What kind of home entertainment system is it really going to be when it doesn't even come with an internal hard drive? Oh, right, because it has Blu-ray? I can't wait for the day when Blu-ray loses to HD-DVD the same way Betamax lost to VHS. Sony's done.

    Destroy All Humans? Please
    GT4? Its just like every GT game with some better graphics and more cars, if I wanted rehashed games with very little change I'd buy EA's sports games
    GTA? I prefer not to buy games that thrive on perverse content
    Really any of these games offer nothing new aside from a choice on good or evil on Old Republic that alter your character... even that theres very little freedom.

    Personally I don't like the design, especially the pad, which I'd have been happy had they kept the old PS2 pad style...the controller doesn't look comfortable to me, but I guess I won't find that out until it is released...

    As long as its good for playing games then I'll be happy though, the FFVII demo looked amazing.

    The reason the controller design is changed is because Sony is in the middle of a lawsuit regarding their Dual Shock controllers.

    The vibrational technology they used was apparently patented. They lost a $90+ million lawsuit and are currently appealing that verdict, so I assume they can't sell more Dualshocks until the litigation is resolved.

    Yeah, but I'm pretty sure the reason they have that larger casing is to hold the different vibrational system.

    How much do you think it's gonna be? I think it'll be like 400 dollars or more ... which I will probably never buy.
