"PS3 The REAL facts"

i know alot of crap has been spoken about the PS3 being released in 2006, like a glass top! But here are some of the REAL facts.

PS3 will come with 20GB hard drive, broadband modem, interchangeable sound card, graphics card, central processing unit, RAM cards, keyboard, mouse (which will be known as the "Ultra shock"), an operating system co-designed by Microsoft and it will be recommended that you play it on a 17" or larger monitor.

Hu, is this a computer, if not, it should be, i wouldnt buy it, it is too much like a pc...
So how much is it going to be...
And i hope that they are not going to use the horrible controllers that they have now...

I thought this was a joke until I read some of Ryan's replies - come on - the original post describes a PC. Either you've been taken in or you are joking after all... I don't know which one to go for.

Seeing as I left it at home, it must be the latter...

What the hell?

Interchangable graphics and sounds cards?

So every owner could have different specs? Meaning some games won't run on some people's machines...


So basically, it's a very, very crap PC.



Somehow I think this is a load of rubbish, Sony wouldn't be so stupid.

Is that a hard drive in your pocket?

Or are you just pleased to see me?

I carry 20GB around in my pocket, it's not very much, especially as I've downloaded about 1.2GB of stuff this week without any effort at all.

Fool!! Microsoft wouldn't support the PS3!

you have just described my PC (except the broadband bit)

But why will you want to pay easily over a hundred pounts for a monitor to go on your console when you can buy a better TV for less...

Consoles will not be sold for use with monitors, they are designed for TVs...

Nobody would pay double price to be forced to use a monitor...

Anyway, consoles these days are recommended to be used with TVs that are like 40"+

17 inch is like the size of my PC monitor, that's tiny! I'd never play all the time on a screen that size!
