Anyone get reservations on these? I missed them! NOOOOO

So I'm going to go wait in line for them. Im going to bring some of my cousins to help me get them too! Hope I can get 3! Then its a free paintjob! WOOOO!!!

Anyone get lucky with these?


If you guys want quick cash too, look for the tickle me elmos. Those are about a 100 dollar profit as well.

Not when you consider the fact that the dvd player inside it alone costs $1000 right now. smile.gif

I'm guessing you haven't watched a movie on blu-ray? There's only one other format other than blu-ray that does true high-definition. So yeah, it's pretty great. tongue.gif

Consider the fact that there are only about a dozen blu-ray movies out on disc right now, none of which involve any special features or anything else besides just the movie in 1080p, and you've got a really, really expensive movie watching experience. $2000 to see a movie in 1080? No thanks.

The blu-ray technology has an awesome picture. The big thing is if you dont have a 1080P tv then you wont be using the system to its complete capacity. I have the 360 and like it a lot.

It's not overpriced for the technology that is in it. But if you have a regular tv your definitey wasting your money. But your wasting your money on a 360 too if you have a SDTV



True, but EVENTUALLY, 1080p will be mainstream, and more common. So it's not like you're never going to take advantage of it, just depends on when you get a newer tv smile.gif


So, I'm supposed to buy a gaming console that I can eventually take advantage of, when I shell out money for a TV that supports it?

Would you buy a car that isn't allowed to drive on the road, but will be able to in 5 years when the specially designed roads are built?

Wow, over-react much?

What exactly are you trying to argue? Nobody is claiming this thing is cheap. But when $600 product has a $1000 product built in, I would not call that overpriced. Expensive? Yes, we all agree on that.

The car comment isn't valid simply because you can still play games on the ps3, and still watch DVD's. It's only when you want the absolute highest quality everything, that you'll have to upgrade (tv/movie collection). If they didn't put the blu-ray player in the ps3, it would become obsolete in just a couple of years.

Either way, I think you need to step back from the keyboard, and go outside becuase you're getting way too upset about this whole thing.

No, I'm not upset about anything, I'm simply stating facts. Just because you've been brain washed by a few decent games for the PS2, you're ready to drop cash on something you haven't even seen in person or played yet. You still haven't adressed any of my points, instead saying I should leave the house because I'm angry?

I'm in the development community, I work for a company that's created games for the PSP, and we're currently working on 2 nintendo DS titles. I've been to the shows, I've seen what they have to offer, and it isn't much. I get to listen to people like you at trade shows talk about how great & wonderful Sony is, when in fact, they've grown so full of themselves that they constantly make poor decisions.

Stop giving bad advice out to people, keep your fanboyism at the door, and try using logic. It won't hurt, I promise.

You just made a fool out of yourself because
a) I don't own a ps2, or anything sony that cost's more than $30.

and

b) I never said anywhere in any of my posts that I was buying a ps3.

So maybe YOU should think about what you are you're giong to say before you make assumptions and such. smile.gif

Exactly what "points" did I not address?

Good for you! How exactly does this relate to the ps3 and blu-ray?

QUOTE

Stop jerking off Sony in this thread, and giving bad advice to people, and perhaps I'd take you seriously.


Please quote where I gave anybody advice in this thread.
Get your facts straight and stop with the inappropriate bad-mouthing, because nobody is taking you seriously. This debate was civilized until you made all of those nasty comments, simply because you had no real response.
