Let's make a list.  It seems every time Sony makes an update or a revision, they take shit out of the PS3.

- Other OS

- Flash card reader

- SACD support

- Backwards compatibility

- Power switch (you can't actually turn off the PS3 slim, just put it in sleep mode :teehee)

Wow, why would someone buy a machine that gets downgraded with every update and revision?  :rofl :rofl :rofl

It'll come down to Zelda.

If Zelda comes out soon for wii, I'm getting a wii, or borrowing a wii. Doesn't matter.

The Wii on non standby takes about 2 watts of electricity.

the ps3 slim has an external power source, no? I figured the reason the fat PS3 had a switch was due to the internal psu, and the opposite for why the slim doesn't.  I know the 360 external one still is getting charge even when the 360 is off because of the orange light.

and I haven't checked up on it in a while, but way back when a lot of third party controllers worked with PS2 games and after a patch they stopped working.  Something along those lines.

Remember Kutaragi put together that patent that was to remove your ability to sell your physical media games - one time linking of unique game id to an account, after that it's basically a coaster if you're done with it.

Not that other companies aren't absolutely looking into something similar to slice the 2nd hand market out.


oh, you better believe it

all that ubiplay and project ten dollar stuff is the tip of the iceberg

Yeah this sucks. Would've been good if they still supplied the older 'elite' models for those who would use the features however their firmware updates were already making them confused enough having to have different releases for old consoles with bc/linux compatibility and the new ones without it.

Project Ten Dollar is actually a better idea, IMO.  They don't make the game incompatible with other systems if you decide to sell it but you have to pay the game company to access DLC and content.

You're ridiculous. Yes the Xbox is perfect and has never had any problems ever. And Sony didn't reflect the changes in hardware with a massive price drop. Microsoft don't nickel and dime their users for bullshit either like controllers without rechargable batteries, wireless adapters and ridiculously over priced hard drives

But don't you admit that the lack of wireless is a huge miss for MS? Even the ds has wireless. :lol

If there's one thing we've all come to an agreement on it's the fact that this generation is full of rip offs and bullshit. MS with their nickel and diming schemes. Sony with their removal of features and making ps3 600 bones to begin with. Nintendo with...well, wii.

All three companies are full of shit. We have established that.

Agreed.  Nickel and diming for DLC (and charging for Live), RROD, removing features (or selling you gimped controllers and then adding rumble and forcing you to rebuy them), selling last-gen tech for current-gen prices, etc., etc.

I'm enjoying the games and the advantages of having online be the standard (XBLA, DLC stuff that helps games keep their value even after you finish, multiplayer) , but this gen has really fucked things up in a lot of ways.

Last time I checked, I was a consumer, not a Microsoft employee, so yeah...huge fucking fail as far as I'm concerned.

I agree (with it being lame), just being facetious  :P

Sorry, I guess I'm just used to the system wars fanboys who think as long as the company they support is making money, it doesn't matter if they're paying for it by having their wallets raped. :lol

The real question,what is next?

Easy way to find out

Capture some ordinary sfag minion and find out what features he doesn't use.
Mail it to Sony.

And whoa, is someone actually trolling 360's battery solution? I fucking wish my PS3 took AAs. I've got 3 controllers that I never use and you can't use a USB wall outlet adapter for any of them.

You can just plug them on your PC. I bet that's always on.

Sorry, charging a controller off a netbook or a cell phone isn't gonna cut it. Wall outlet or bust.

Come on, guys.  Let's not give Sony any ideas.  Pretty soon they'll take away charging controllers on a computer as well. 

:rofl

Wait, I don't get it.

Third just means that the 360 does a poorer job of being a POS.  PS3 is still the gold standard when it comes to delivering far less than was promised.

Isn't TripleA just an alt for Methodis/MyNameIsMud?

Pretty sure my PS3 Slim has an internal PSU but I'm about to pass out and am not willing to risk stairs for you sony-hating-bastards.

I have no love for Sony, except my PS2. My PS3 is a sexy, sexy... blu-ray player.  :-\

I used to be crazy about watching Blu-rays on the PS3 but not that much since I got a Seagate Theater+ media player.  Now I just rip all my Blu-rays to an external hard drive and watch it on the media player.  It's so much more convenient to have tens of movies on 1 drive and way more portable than a PS3 too.  The media player + HD weights less than a netbook.
