Let the PS3 hype begin!
 

Knock yourselves out! There's also this news bite but I'm not sure if they're the same thing or not. One story claims it's the size of a TV and the other claims it's the size of a dishwasher! Either the TV is really big or the dishwasher is really small!

I wait with bated breath to hear the what you have to say about the 2,000,000,000,000 calculations per second!

I heard the PS3 will organize your DVD collection while you are work, and great you with a hot meal when you get back home.

I heard the PS3 won't have any disc errors 91 days after buying it....
This one will last 95 days!

Back on subject...
Is the PS3 still rumored to have connectivity between itself and the PSP?

Really? i heard that the PS3 will be cross-compatible with all games available for the Phantom!

I heard that it is going to have a built-in toaster, and washer/dryer. Maybe that is the reason it is the size of a dishwasher? Just think of the gaming opportunities you can have while doing a load of laundry!

The PS3 healed my maim leg. And it's not even out yet.

D

I heard the PS3 found some WMD in Iraq and is currently searchin for Saddam.

I heard it created this thread to hype itself while rendering Finding Nemo in real time.

I heard the PS3 is going to be able to play Halo 3 on it.

I heard PS3 going be $99.99

:)

I heard its going to be $9.99! AND backwars compatiable with 3D0 and Turbo Duo games!!!!!!!111!!1!1!!!

Hey now.. don't bring the good name of Turbo Duo into this. it just ain't right.

At Target?

lol sorry couldn't resist :D

The PS3 will travel back in time to stop the creation of Skynet.

That news article is wrong. Damn that thing spread like wildfire. PS3 is based on the upcoming Cell, and not PowerPC. In fact, Microsoft licenced the PowerPC chipset for the Xbox2, so this is really XBox2 Hype! Nintendo hasn't said who is doing their next chip, but they might stick with IBM. For those interested, the Cell will be shown in its first tech demo in March.

GizmoDVD - Yes, the PS3 and PSP will have connectivity, but no details as to what that means exactly. But they will connect!

I heard that no matter what the PS3 has or doesn't have, it will still dominate over all the competition...

I heard that anyone who doesnt have a PS3 at launch will get a phonecall that tells the person they will die in seven days if they dont get one.

MS has contracted with IBM, but the article specifically sites Nintendo and Sony. Although this is the first I have heard of Sony and IBM. Nintendo never really talks much about anything - that being said, the lack of announcement would lead me to believe they will just have IBM create a newer better chip - a more cost effective - low power chip than the MS one since Nintendo focuses on cost and gameplay while XBox is the god of eye candy.

"It is also the technology that will be the foundation of the next generation of gaming consoles from Nintendo (news - web sites) Co. (7974.OS) and Sony Corp (news - web sites). (6758.T), which IBM is working on, he said. "

The thread title should be let the next-gen console hype begin. Sony has proved to make inferior products (Xbox went south on me too) so, I am not as hyped about PS3 as the Nintendo succesor (good games, don't have to worry if it will work). I will buy a PS3 as well though, just for a few exclusive games and everything else will be on the Nintendo system or XBox2.

:lol:

Classic stuff guys, :) I needed a laugh, thanks!

If it can cook an Egg!

Im in.!

There new campaign slogan revealed:

All your base are belong to us!!

You're kidding right? I mean, you have been living on an island somewhere without Internet until a few days ago, correct? In 2001, IBM, Sony, and Toshiba started a group project to develop a chip codenamed, "Cell". They pledged to spend $500 Million and Sony announced that they would use this Cell processor in their next gaming unit, aka PS3.

The cell is not based on the PowerPC chipset - in any way, shape, or form. If Sony uses a PowerPC chip for anything, it won't be the "foundation of next generation gaming console" for them as they already have said the Cell would be. That is where this article is wrong. That, and Nintendo hasn't announced anything regarding their next generation unit - not even who is going to design/build their chips. The lack of comments from them should have tipped you off, especially since you are a fan of their consoles.

And did it ever occur to you that if you have a broken PS2 and Xbox that it could be user error?

Did it ever occur to you if you own all three big systems, and your PS2 has died twice, maybe its the systems fault?

Hmm...

The PS3 will be made of the same material as the T-1000, thus it will be self repairing, the perfect assassin, and the best game console on the face of the earth.

D

Is it programmed to assassinate other consoles? I might have to keep it far away from others..
