Okii. its me. um Im thinking of getting a PS3 and I was wondering if you would tell me your online username, and whether the PS3 is really worth it. Ive heard pros and cons, but from only 2 people, and this is a poll too
I have read in many places opinions of many people that disliked the PS3 or liked the PS3 with a certain bias. I will certainly not deny that my post will be somewhat biased in itself. However, I will try my best to be as objective as possible in this delicate subject. Also, if you find that some of my info are incorrect, feel free to call me an idiot and correct me.
The PS3 has caused quite a stirring over the past 2 years: from a general excitement to astonishment to disappointment. How did this happen? Let's look at what Sony did right, and what they did wrong, and every shades of gray in between.
Pros: 1. Cell- 8 cores, 7 active, 1 for redundancy. Why is this good? This is excellent for the consumers. It solves a lot of defects, reducing complaints and defective systems. Sony learned something from their PS2 fiasco. But aside from its ability to warrant from damage, the Cell processor is a dedicated processor especially designed for gaming. How? Because of its 7 core architecture, Cell allows developers to designate each core to a specific task. This allow multitasking at its peak. What does this mean to games? More sparks, more people, more physics, better AI, more particles, more of everything at the same time on the same HD TV. The Cell processor undoubted sets the PS3 a bar ahead of all other consoles.
2. Blue-Ray Disk- 52 gig of space to use. No matter how you look at it, bigger space is better. More room for developers to fill. Better graphics, sounds, physics, AI, longer games, more modes, more maps, everything. A $1000 value, now yours for only $600. Play movies at high definition, games at high def. BR is very important to gaming. With a new leap in generation, came a new leap in media. Sony had always shown this: PS-CD, PS2-DVD, PS3-BD. This technology removes the limit that developers get when making a game.
There are cons personally there isn't a single good game for the ps3 only littlebigplanet and that's about it. Xbox has better fps games since the community and online is better and wii has better games for retro gamers. PS3 is in the middle but it offers nothing special. Idk for blueray and the cores I care about the games not the graphics. HD DVD were better than the Blueray. Also ps3 was only made to push blueray onto the market.
Darkroot dont no **** littlebigplanet aint tht good. online on xbox every1 says its better its not . so u dont care about cores graphics blueray so only a few things tht make the PS3 better.HD DVD was not better it stored less info graphics were slightly worce not overly. and alot of the games for xbox are out for ps3
