I guess reliability didn't factor into their criteria lol

I am looking forward to when they start releasing these AAA exclusive games they keep talking about

There have been plenty of AAA exclusive games on the PS3. Liking them or not doesn't matter, they're still AAA games.

I didn't really like Killzone 2 but I acknowledge it as an AAA title.

I wouldn't put the ps3 in my top consoles of all time either, but this hasn't got any thing to do with the console itself, its the total lack of evolution with the controller it just fells so out dated.

So for the record. N64>Snes>Megadrive>Nes>Xbox(original)

Don't forgot Sony are just now taking advantage of BD by putting two PS2 games onto 1 disc. Thats a good indication as to what is to come.

Pfft, Nintendo are putting 3 GC/Wii games on their discs

GC games are like 1.5gb at most.

GoW is only 3 gigs, you could fit both of them comfortably on a dvd 9.

considering the space available on a bd50, putting two ps2 games one one disc isnt much of a feat

Are these games software emulated and tweaked or redesigned for PS3?

The resolution has been upped to 'HD' not sure whether it's up to 720p or 1080p but it's still a pretty nice improvement.

No but BD still allows this to be possible. Who says they won't put 2+ games on 1 BD in the future?

Both Sony and MS pretty much got their controller designs from Nintendo.

The basic layout mayb, i see what your saying, but sony where the first to bring in the little analoge sticks or **** as i call them on the dual shock controller which came out towards the end of the ps1

Didn't Nintendo do them first on the N64 :confused:

Thought the N64 had 1 analogue stick and 1 vibrate motor, where as the Dual shock had 2 sticks and 2 vib motors. Pretty sure the PS2 bought analog buttons to console joypads also.

Oh right I see, so Sony put 2 on instead of 1, definitely innovating then. I'm sorry but the innovation is definitely Nintendo's there. Someone should stick 3 on and claim that innovation.

But we can thank Nintendo for The layout + Analogue and Motor.

But Sony were the first to Double up

For a Dual Shocking experience
