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.


-Sam

if you're interested on buying a minimiun of 4 let me know

I think I can get them before the release date

PS3 is junk.

If I lived in a solid gold house with a diamond plated benz parked out front, I'd probably buy one.

Until then, if I had my choice, I'd go with a Nintendo Wii. Looks like it will be more fun.

sorry, but ftl on that one

any Final Fantasy 7 fans here? I played the original back in grade school My friend showed me this the other day: FF7 Definitely a step up.

I also saw this GtHd cant go wrong with that either

isn't PS3 coming out next month or is it december? anyway, i'm surely gonna get it, just not right away.. metal gear solid is the #1 reason why i buy playstation... and if the PS3 has any cool features with the PSP then i'm more than tempted to buy it..
only thing is now i have no time for video games, but i'd still like to own one nonetheless....

LOL, imagine you seen someone playing Nintendo Wii in their Celi.
hahahahha

anyways, if you can get 4, how much? I was planning on buying as much as I can on opening day. haha

I'm contacting the seller to find out all the details. I'll PM you tonight or tomorrow when I get a reply from him.

I got the info for the PS3, in you're interested PM me with email address ( we can't buy, sale or trade non 6 gen celica items on this site, is part of the rules )

ps3 is
1. overpriced
2. losing many of its original games (final fantasy, grand theft auto)
3. claims blue ray is great
4. and wil be an ok system if you can afford it.

Final Fantasy debuted with Nintendo.
Grand Theft Auto is original to the PC.

Already have the 360. Love it. Just waiting for the Wii to come out. Not a fan of the PS3.

>

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

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.

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

>

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.

>

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?

I like to mention that most ppl are attracted to PS3s beautful graphics. Sony has a track record for putting their foot into their mouths. Chances are high that the games won't produce those beautful graphics and will be close to the XBOX 360s. So their console will most likely be overrated. I'm not getting it because I see gaming as a waste of time now. I use to play them all the time but now it is different. Life goes on, there are more important things than watching a movie at HD and sitting on my tail for a few hours playing the latest games on the newest consoles. I have the XBOX 360 and it is good enough for me. It has the only games I need. SC, Halo, and RE

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.


>

Exactly what "points" did I not address?

>

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

>

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.

Cue bad advice - you know 1080p will be mainstream how? And when? Do you own a $2000 HDTV right now that does 1080p playback? They're releasing a console that uses Blu-Ray specifically for 1080p, which isn't even an accepted, well spread out standard and won't be for another 5 years or so. The TV's alone costs thousands of dollars, and you're hinging the PS3's success on their support of it. Horray! You can get full 1080p playback on the whole .1% of the market that owns the televisions.

>

You're acting like Blu-Ray is actually a good thing.

Let me share a little moment in history with you about Sony's last attempt at backing a format that nobody else would : The Minidisc.

We all know how popular Minidisc's are in society. It's junked up DRM crap, much like everything else that Sony produces.

>

Because I get to screw with the stuff, I've been to several trade shows, GDC, E3, and I get to listen to Phil Harrison talk out of both sides of his mouth about the Playstation 3, first hand. I watched several of the PS3 'demo' units take a nose dive because they couldn't handle the poorly constructed cell code that they were running on.

rumors say the ps3 will be $400-$600...blu-ray players are dropping in price to a low $699.99...however sony will eat the cost of the blu-ray drive to try and outsell the 360 and plan on selling more games to make up for lost profits

>

I think because of the low quantity of units they're shipping to the US, that they can't possibly outsell the 360 on launch, it's simply a numbers game.

I could be wrong, and Sony could surprise everyone with a huge surge of consoles before christmas, but i'm going off the numbers they've released to the general public. I still think the Wii will outsell the PS3, simply because of the price point.

>

I agree with you man, but for the Wii to be released like 2 days after the ps3 isn't all the great of a move -_-

with the size of the ps3 bigger than the wii and 360, some might not like that

I managed to get a PS3 preorded at EB. I will try to get another one at Target, KB or Toys R us.

1080 will become mainstream, in march of 09' the law is already passed for all analog tv's to become digital. 1080p HDTV's arent $2000 anymore, I have a 27" samsung and bought it brand new for $600. And actually 30% of america already has an HDTV and by 09' the number is supposed to reach 85%. Digital HD is coming regardless if u like it or not, every day more and more channels are added and broadcasted. Will blu-ray be a huge hit? Given the circumstances, I doubt it, will ps3 sell like crazy, definatly.

>

But IF you do have a 1080P which lots of ppl are now buying then it is a good thing. And you cannot deny the picture over a standard dvd player. Just because you think something is a waste of money doesnt mean that others do not. Lot's of people think, including my ex-gf, think my car is a big waste of money but I enjoy working on it and making it look nicer.

I sale about 4-7 1080P tvs every week. So lots of people are getting them now days. The lowest I've seen a 1080P (DLP) we've sold was 1799. Not bad for a 50" DLP. So in my personal experience w/ 1080P tvs they're becoming more affordable and more common in houses. And my personal op. if your gonna buy a 1080P tv and not utilize the quaility of the tv then why not buy the 720P model?

>

You may want to restate your statement. there is no 27" samsung thats 1080P, 1080i which is a lot different. And nothing on cable or satelite is broadcasted in 1080P. The only thing offered in 1080P is blu-ray right now.
