Korge what does that have to do with this topic?

On-topic: Release PS3 will be around Q1 2006. So don't ask one for christmas, the Xbox360 will be availeble for christmas.

Do you really think the one yr old card will be any match to any new Hardware or software that the pc will offer in the near future?
Think about it, Yea the Xbox has proven some worthy gfx, but why?
Only because PC did it first...
Yea the Xbox and PS3 will get all the glory for the shader technology,
but in the long run, the nice looking gfx will be on the Console around the same time It will be on the PC...
Shame to see the Unreal 3 engine go to a console..
It was originally for PC,
but Why would Epic let it go to waste and just sit around wen they could make some money with a nice Juicy Contract....
Well, ppl gotta make money some how...

Korge, don't be such a wuss kthnx?

First, it's not a SLI system.

Second, the price is going to be around the price when the PS2 first came out. Which is under 50.000 yen.

And u would know how?

just shut the firetruck up while you can, every thing i say, you come back with some dumb shiznit...

Any Ways! i was watchin G4 and they had an E3 preview of the PS3, looked interesting till they showed a movie that looked like a CGI movie from some anime video... But what got me laughing was when he said that it was In Game!

I laughed. Yea its in game... In game movie...

First off, you could tell right off it was CGI do to the Render filters that it portrayed... Second, the Environment and Texture and modelling was like nothing ever seen before, as in, it looked three times better than any shrek movie.. in fact , it was like watching Final Fantasy ( movie) on steroids... There is no way it could be rendered real time and have no lag... Also, even if it was capable of Pumping that much power, could you imagine the load times?

Well.. there is my comment,,, Now here comes the swarm...

EDIT - Here is the video... Its the interview with Jack and some scens from the Killzone Preview....

O yea, and one more thing,, If i had a couple of spare hundreds, i would go out and buy this thing, but since ive already spent so much into my Comp, it would be a waste to stop and just put it off to the side for a console.. The thing about comps are, The first time you buy one is the most exxpensive.. But after that, its just the upgrades so its not as expensive as you might think.. unless youre going for the 900 dollar AMDs....

Yeah i saw the G4 episodes and Sony is swearing that all the movies they show are in-game movies, but critics still argue if they actually are or not, they showed a movie of unreal tournment 2007 in real time and it looked crazy, it def looks liek the ps3 can handle some intense graphics, but i still question games like Killzone 2 and Motor Storm

Phil Harrison:

Phil Harrison: Not all of that - in fact, none of it was real-time because it was all running off video. If you make a presentation to two and a half thousand people, you're going to put some of it on video just to be on the safe side.

I've been asked this question a lot. The way we put those videos together, everything was done to specification. Everything was done to PS3 spec. Virtually everything used in-game assets; some things were rendered.

I wonder what ''some'' is.

So how many traditional pipelines does the RSX have? Your first guess might be that Nvidia simply doubled the pipeline number on the 6800 Ultra to make the RSX, but you also have to remember that the 16-pipe Ultra only clocked in at 400MHz. If the "double" performance measurement is based on fill-rate performance rather than hardware, the clock speed increase up to 550MHz is a strong sign that the hardware improvement isn't from a pure doubling of pipelines. We're guessing that the actual pipeline count is going to be 24, which is about right for 300 million transistors and, at 550MHz, it has just a slightly larger fill rate than two GeForce 6800 Ultras clocked at 400MHz. Sony will manufacture the RSX chip itself at a fabrication plant in Nagasaki and at another facility co-owned by Sony and Toshiba.

Clear enough? It's based on the G70 core, or vice versa. Not just 2 Ultra's and a higher clockspeed.

@pszeta

The phil comment, Makes sence.. Most likely it would have been rendered to what the game "Possibly May" look like.. But i seriously doubt those were in game gfx... its like taking the visual models and textures and putting them in a rendering unit and say, "There you Go, Thats what our game is" When people truly arent that stupid.

One other thing i was thinking, If the game isnt even close to being completed and in the 'works' how would they have a game done so soon.... ehh? Well thats what i was thinking, Ive noticed with all game companies... They usually release a CGI or Game Preview about 5 months into the development into the game.. so there is pretty much no way a Nex Gen game with that much detail could be done... I say its a rendered preview that they used to get some attention with the crowds... It all just an attempt to make people want the game.. ill laugh when that movie is just a High res video at the start up of the game..

Pce!

The controller does look a little bit strange.The designs are not final however,i'm pretty sure they'll change some details(i hope).

PSZeTa · Post by **PSZeTa** » 29 May 2005, 12:29

Dude.

Who cares about the controller design? I like the Gamecube controller because it fits nicely into my hands, not because it looks good.

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 29 May 2005, 16:47

I like the controller. It looks stylish and it's different. Plus, like PSZeTa said, it's not about how it looks, it's about how comfortable it feels when playing. While you're playing, you're no going to look at the controller.

^Sparco^ · Post by **^Sparco^** » 29 May 2005, 16:50

I am not an expert, but I doubt that that thing is confortable.....

Unless you got XXL hands

Cpt.Razkit · Post by **Cpt.Razkit** » 29 May 2005, 17:25

like with the huge x-box controllers... LOL

I cant wait for the PS3 to come out. I wil hopefully have money to go buy it. = D

Sir Ibi · Post by **Sir Ibi** » 29 May 2005, 21:01

people will get use to the design of the controllers pretty soon, just like the Audi TT when it first appeard..... or does that still look wierd to people

Anyway i don't know if this was posted before, but here it is anyway. A comprehesive comaparison of the PS3 and Xboxb360 on Gamespot. Although some of the specs may change before they are released...
