microsoft confirms...

They also mentioned how sony has not released any details and is being vague when asked any questions so in other words their system is just as bad with the acception of weaker servers and less servers.

That's a pretty big leap of logic to make. I never noticed much of a difference in the online service, either.

I wanna say $49.99?

I think I paid that for twisted metal 2....

Wild Arms, FF7, XenoGears, some great games on that Ps1

Sounds about right, I was thinking it was more like 40, but that's nostalgia for you.

now xbox one getting banned from military facilities for having a persistent recording device attached, predictable and funny.

The only difference I've ever noticed is in options like cross game chat. There might be a slight difference in connection rates but not enough for me to pay both for internet service and the right to use that internet service on my console. But then I'm cheap as you can see.

Is this true? I never heard of it is why? Also will they stop selling webcams? I am not a paranoid person, but this jumped in my mind. We will have both consoles as hubby is an xbox addict :P and I just got back into Ps3 due to these forums.

There is a a very good chance that they will banhammer Xbox one on base ,because persistent recording devices are a big nono on base. Web cams are a different story beacuse you can at least unplug the durn thing. Looks like I will be going back to PS but I really do hate the way the controller feels.

A console that plays all old 64-bit console generation games and lower and just expand those games to allow larger multiplayer, it would do better than what xbox is proposing with this system.

10 MAN BALLOON FIGHT CHAOS DEATHMATCH ANYONE?!?! I would buy it... for those who don't know Balloon fight, this is a screenshot.



I would also like to Super Mario Kart Battle against 8 people, and fight people online in Star Fox 64, with more than 4 people in a map.

My dream hand continues to stay empty; we don't talk about the other hand...

while "multiplayer" is up to the game itself, you can play anything made like a normal pc simply by running linux 5.4 on the original ps3, I used to play WoW on it until they patched to 3.0

sadly.. the normal consumer out there did not do those things.. only a handful of people used the original ps3 to it's "full" (I use that term loosely) potential, so.. the removed it. saved them that much more cost.

I miss when people used to make fun games for the sheer sake of making fun games. Not it is all about who can earn the most money for games. How pathetic and greedy.

Some companies make fun games. Just money is important in the world of Business. You can't run your business without money.
