Tbone9191 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 i voted ps3 not a fan of xbox controller plus gran turismo rocksSo does Forza 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V4junkie Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 Forza 2 is great, but the kids online ruined it for me. They only want to drag or drift. Gran Turismo has potential but it's a ridiculously short demo with no cars and no tracks. Prologue = Fail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 If you want features and "future" get the PS3. I got it with my big screen for $100 off.... good games, good Blu-Ray player..... and good software upscaler for regular DVDs.PS3 > 360 in terms of "features"Plus, PS3 online doesn't cost anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOW Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 I guess I'll hold off buying into the whole Blu-Ray thing 'til it proves it's longevity. Most of you guys are probably too young to remember the laser disks & Beta Max of the 80's, or those ginormous old satellite dishesThis aint my first rodeo, and Blu-Ray's still too new for me to believe/buy into it being "the One"ALL movie studios have dropped HD DVD in favor of Blu-Ray. Just like the last time Sony decided there was a need for a new format (DVD vs. Nintendo & Sega cartridges), Blu-Ray is here to stayIf you're really just looking for a DVD player, go with the PS3. HD-DVD has already been dropped and Blu-Ray is the winning format for High-Def DVD's. "...you can watch a large selection of HD movies for free." Where did you hear/see that? If you're talking about the content on LIVE, you pay for it, it's not free. Movies and stuff on there cost Microsoft Points, which you have to buy those points with money...I voted PS3. I like the built in wireless, blue tooth controllers, Blu-ray player, free online gaming, and many of the games utilize the gyroscopic controllers (much like the Wii) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InyaAzz Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 disagree... flash memory is building soo fast, i think there will be a high definition solid state format within 5 years, optical drives will be obsolete...they have 4 gig micro sd now, how long until a 50 gig flash drive comes along? then how long until it's WAY cheaper to produce than an optical disk?blu-ray will die a quick death, because the novelty will wear off quicker than the price point comes down...even if you can get a decent priced blu-ray player, who wants to pay $35 for "step brothers" in 1080P?dvd will be around a long time, and may even outlast blu-ray because the cost/payoff isn't enough to warrant it for most movies...Doubtful. The cost/price ratio of Flash tech is too high. Additionally, flash cards have an infinite life cycle. Yes, they DO and WILL die on you eventually. Also, how many different formats are out there? Probably about a dozen. You thought HD vs Bluray was bad......Flash has potential, just not in this generation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AOW Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 VHS hung on and put in the good fight against DVD, up until DVD burners became affordable. Blu-ray/DVD burner combo drives are becoming the norm in the computing world, and that will eventually mean that blu-ray burners will be everywhere. When that happens kiss your DVDs goodbye. I'm thinking it's going to be 5+yrs, but it's coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DudeAbides Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 WoW = World of Warcraft/played = displays your real life time playing the game on a single character, without getting deep into it I had over a day of my life playing 1 level 70 character, I had 4 level 70's on said account, I thought it to be a bit excessive for having only played maybe 8 months.

Mr Anderson Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 Get the xbox 360. Its better then the Wii and PS3. I have all the systems. Plus xbox 360 is coming out with its new motion sensor that makes the Wii look like childs play. Its more advanced and 10 times better graphics. Its more powerfull then the wii. Stick with xbox live and facebook and netflix hooked up with xbox live. I work at a gamestore and PS3 games don't even sell if that same game is on the 360. Just my thoughts.

Mr Anderson Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 My 360 never broke or had problems. It was in a dust free house. I do not smoke and if you smoke then your Wii and PS3 will have the same problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
