The vaunted PlayStation 3 does just about everything you'd want in a consumer electronics product. It plays all discs (except HD DVDs), stores media, plays games, lets you surf the Web, eats babies, looks cool, and invites both envy and ridicule equally.
Its image quality seems to be roughly the same as the Pioneer's, and navigating via the regular controller wasn't too obnoxious once I got used to it. (A real remote is also available.) It switches between tracks the fastest of this bunch, and, along with the Pioneer, it's the only one that lets you advance and rewind frame by frame. (The others can only go forward per frame.) If it's already on, a disc will start nearly instantaneously. If you insert a disc with the unit off, it takes about 25 seconds to start the movie. The Samsung takes almost twice that time. This thing's computing power is really impressive...
On Amazon, you can't get an RTX 4090 for less than this one from Gigabyte, which now offers great value after an eye-catching April deal.
Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
Just about every year in the 7th generation was great and something we most likely won't experience again.
2009 for example had Assassin's Creed 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Dragon Age: Origins, Uncharted 2, Halo 3: ODST, Killzone 2, Borderlands, Bayonetta, and Demon's Souls to name a few.
This article is dated April, 2007, and is therefore outdated.
more specifically:
"..,the PS3...can't (or should I say, doesn't) upconvert DVDs. Perhaps this is something Sony will add in the future, as the power is certainly there."
...among other outdated facts.
How did this old article get trickled in???
EDIT:
Ahh, I see the Bubble Monsters are still lurking in full force!...So be it; you're well likely doing me a favour...fewer bubbles will probably help me stop procrastinating on this website and get on with the important stuff.
(Spineless, yellow-belly Neanderthals...perhaps one day you'll muster up enough guts to justify your head-scratching reasoning for disagreeing or eating bubbles...other than for feeding your bitter, fragile, insecure egos.)
Imagine if it's now the top Blu-ray player, constantly being updated (and with new features available after this article came out), what will happen when it's (hopefully, if Sony knows what they're doing) $400 by holiday season, and has tons of games and services exclusive for this "Blu-ray player/console"?
in my home it is. =]
cheers
Of course it is. It is upgradeable and comes with an excellent console called the PS3. plus wireless.
Yes of course and it will continue to get better with updates
