Septik Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 People keep saying that PS3 is the better prospect in the long run, why is that?Is the machine more powerful than the 360? Not necessarily more powerful, but definitely more 'future proof'.The power of the cell processor hasn't really been used by any game yet, 'cos the big boy exclusive games are still on their way.It's a f*ck*ng bitch to develop for (apparently) which is why it's taking so long to get everything out, but the PS3 definitely has alot more to look forward to than the 360.I'm not even agreeing with all the PR sh*t Phil Harrison came out with before the console was released, but The PS3 will be around for the NEXT gen as well as this one, if things go to plan.There was a time about 6-7 months ago, when it seemed that the PS3 may never utilize its power, but with previews of forthcoming games, more info about home released, BluRay dominating the format war and PlayTV coming theres no doubt in my mind that PS3 will be sickening in the future.It probably won't ever 'beat' 360/Wii 'cos theyve simply sold sooo much, but the potential is there for it to have had such a massive headstart on the next conosle from Micorosft.I mean, in about 1 years time, you are going to be able to record live TV on your PS3 (ala sky+) then stream it wireleslly to your PSP anywhere in the world. Same as PS3 games, you will be able to stream them to your PSP.Imagine going on Holiday to Australia, and being able to get your PSP out, set MOTD to record and then watch it whenever you want.Or loading up PS3 games and playing them on the train streamed from your PS3.All you need to be is in a wifi hotpoint.Gonna be soooo sick.So the PS3 could possibly outlast the 360 and microsofts following console.those features sound good, but I imagine something like that is much harder to implement than being able to message while playing a game so I can't see that happening within a year.Wel, seeing as i can play ur psp/ps3 wirelessly already, they only need to focus on PlayTV imo.What's sick, is recording game footage and uploading it to youtube. THATS a feature.youll be lucky to get that before 2010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
