Presenting, the Playstation 3!

Well the X box doesnt have any MMORPGs. Which is strange because it is perfect for them.

[BurnSide]

I know, weird eh.

[Shakezulah]

well apparently, Microsoft and Square have been partners for quite some time, which i did not know. and im guess thats the main reason.

[BurnSide]

Still, you'd think they'd give Xbox 360 a NEW generation title, not one that was out on the old PS2/Xbox1 generation.

[ChrisC098]

Maybe they are redoing it for the 360?

[Shakezulah]

no i doubt they would re do it. theres not much to redo in the first place

[BurnSide]

*shrugs* Not important. Let's get back to the topic at hand, the PS3.

*drools*

I'd like to take a moment to add that Resident Evil 5 is going to be a PS3 title, although whether it will be exclusive is unknown.

[ChrisC098]

I want info on Metal Gear Solid 4. I thought snake eater was too be the last.

Yes it does...It has a few. Phantasy Star Online being one of them.

[ChrisC098]

Isnt that a port..from the Dreamcast?

[Shakezulah]

yeah i imagine that it would also be on the Revolution, if it could handle it. but that is so far from now its almost not worth talking about, except the possibilities of the game, which is appropriate for the RE thread.

Yes it is I just looked it up. THey were makeing something along the lines of Fantasy Online or something but it got cancelled.

[Shakezulah]

i must add this quite amusing article that i read that was posted on Gamespot earlier today. apparently, Bill Gates plans to release Halo 3 for the 360 at the same time that the PS3 comes out because he thinks it will give it a challange in the sales ha! what a riot.

[AutumnDragon]

This is one sexy mama.

It's got the goods, can you handle it?

Offically confirmed are the backwards compatability for both PS1 and PS2 games, wireless controllers, etc.

Sony also laid out the technical specs of the device. The PlayStation 3 will feature the much-vaunted Cell processor, which will run at 3.2 Ghz and feature 2.18 teraflops of performance. It will sport 256mb XDR main RAM at 3.2 Ghz, have 256MB of GDDR VRAM at 700mhz, a detachable 2.5 inch HDD slot, six usb 2.0 ports, Memory Stick Duo, a SD slot, a compact flash memory slot, Compact flash slot, 2 hdmi outputs, 1 av multi out, 1 SPDIF optical output, and 1-gigabit Ethernet built in port

2.18 TERAFLOPS!!!!! That's TWICE the power of the XBOX360!!

Here are the pictures:
