As a spare computer for those that can't afford a second computer or their computer goes kabloey. No more schedule setups like your sibling or roommate need the PC but they need to wait an hour or two till you finish whatever you are doing on the PC. We PS3 Linux your roommate or sibling didn't have to wait for you to finish your work on the PC; all they needed was to turn the PS3 on jump into other OS and they will do their PC work from there. To prevent hackers from hacking the console in ...
Geez whiz someone that makes sense. Well isn't obvious why hackers haven't hack the PS3 in the first place no, well its because of Linux that allows PS3 users to do some homebrewing that's why hackers haven't hack the PS3. Removing Linux from fat PS3's will encourage hackers to hack the PS3 so in all honesty Sony is not going to be that stupid and remove Linux unless it wants the PS3 to end up like the PSP.
Is an April fool's joke end of discussion
I still hope is an April fools joke. In all seriousness do you really think that Sony is going to remove a feature that will affect the scientific community, that will affect their so called Playstation Academy (lousy with names) program, that will halt the military research of the U.S. Air force. If it ends up being true man Sony is going to get sued or boycotted like no tomorrow.
I did install it. It was fast and smooth (before my 60gb PS3 got YLOD) was able to do everything that my Windows PC could do. Did not had to buy a second computer the PS3 served as my second PC. Now it cannot play the latest and greatest PC games; however, Open Office, DIVX streaming (DVD quality video streaming free from Mozilla firefox). Use Mozilla Firefox in all of its glory go to any website and it works. No more setting up a schedule to who gets to use the PC and who gets to wait. Video...
This is bullshit why do I have to configure third party usb flash drives to work on the 360.
What Microsoft could do is to enhance the game experience using Natal. Ok so as far as a game being run without a controller is not going to work. What could work is Natal being used to open doors climb ladders obstacles, pick up weapons and use voice recognition to say what you want to say and change the outcome of the game.
Hint Hint!!! Firmware Release Date April 1st 2010 a.k.a April Fools day. So is an April fools joke ok don't get out of shape.
Is an April fools joke hint hint April 1st
Pure B.S. article the only reason the 3 year warranty for the xbox 360 exists was to avoid a re-launch of the xbox 360 and people cave to the 3 year warranty as opposed to forcing Microsoft to relaunch the xbox 360. I didn't took care very well of my PS3 and that is why is out commission.
Yes its the greatest game ever and the only videogame that I can say its flawless just like its predecessor.
I will wait and see.
These are atari games that cost like 0.25 cents on the wii virtual console or less and these atari games are free on the PC. $2.00 or more for 1980 games is alright with you come on wake up that is expensive so an Atari game should cost at the same price of a sega genesis games a 1990 game.
Why should I as a gamer pay $5.00 for Atari and Intellivesion games when in the arcades these games were 0.25 cents a pop. These games should be free we are not talking real arcade games that I used to play at my local arcade we are talking about Atari and Intellivesion games which you can get them for free on the PC.
Natal- yeah the peripheral that is only going to use one core of the xbox 360's CPU and 15% of the actual game. Sorry but Natal is just an eyetoy.
Halo Reach- please another Halo that's all Microsoft has as a big gun.
360 slim - still a rumor not set in stone
Now Alan Wake and Splinter Cell Convinction are probably the big bombs for the xbox 360 compared to the PC:
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic MMO
Star Craft 2
Diablo 3 ...
Fanboys are fanboys and its bloody sad that the fanboys are now the majority and the gamers like you and I are the minority. The article was spot on you can't deny the fact that the launch PS3 marketing campaign was horrible because it was horrible it didn't inform the gamers what the PS3 was capable. Is bloody sad that gamers can't comprehend that you need an operating system not a computer to make games. Man like the article says the PSP Go has been a failure PSP owners prefer the PSP 30...
Sony PS3 faults:
Under-develop apps like:
Playstation Home
Playstation Qore
The browser which is a cell phone browser with flash support aaargh!!!
Life with playstation
Sony did not utilize the Linux operating system to its full potential.
Downgrading the 60gb PS3 to the slim eradicating Linux operating system, PS2 backwards compatibility, flash card readers. Those are the faults with the PS3 but as far as their exclusives and PSN ne...
I agree with you 90% until you started talking sales. The way I see it the PS3 is in third in regards to retail sales and as far as retail sales go both wii and 360 have outsold it. Unfortunately we don't know the digital sales, import sales, or even catalog sales; to make matters worse we don't know the sales of Canada, Mexico, Brasil, Argentina, etc. yes these countries do sale PS3, 360, and Wii. How about the cost of sales did Sony did towards the PS3's being sold to the U.S. Air Force, th...
I read the title and I was going oh another PS3 lame article. After reading the article yes Sony's marketing campaign for both PSP and during PS3 launch was downright horrible. What I like about the article is that its true the PS3 has made a huge comeback and its marketing campaign is better. As far the PSP Go it was just an experiment whether people were ready for full digital distribution or not, so yeah the PSP is doing just fine but you can't deny the fact the PSP Go has been an utter fa...
So you prefer hackers actually start hacking the PS3. To take Linux away is to take away the hackers' free homebrew and now if that's gone there will be more hackers willing to exploit the PS3 weaknesses. But hey you like hackable systems I sure as hell don't. Most likely is an April Fool's joke
