ok well the problem i had with xbox control was that it was too big lol but ps1/2/3 control fits perfectly in my hand
You have small hands... I now find the PS controller too small for my hands (and not thats not cause I have a 360, but rather the 360 is just more comfortable). Yuh know... that being said its been said there is a direct correlation to the size of a guys hands and his :lol:

Ok then......

Blu-Ray News >

Heise Online, a German IT website, is reporting that during a press conference, representatives from Pioneer announced that Universal will break their exclusivity agreement with HD DVD. This would allow Universal, the only large studio exclusively supporting HD DVD, to freely distribute their movies on Blu-ray. It is important to note that this announcement has not yet been confirmed by Universal.


It has long been speculated that Universal was receiving monetary compensation for being an exclusive HD DVD studio. This announcement would signal that they have decided to forgo the compensation in order to release titles on Blu-ray. Most would agree that this move would effectively end the war, and no matter what side you support, a single HD format is the best long term solution.

That other format could be the best thing ..but the fact is the company making it will never be able to market it as much as HD-DVD and Blu-Ray...

I mean we talking entertainment Gods Sony and Toshiba here....

O and update on Universal going to Blu-Ray Rumor

>>>

Quote
Wow, that didn't take very long; Craig Kornblau, the President of Universal Studios Home Entertainment tells us in an email that the rumors that Universal will support Blu-ray "are totally false". As much as we love to get the official word straight from the horses mouth, we can't help but feel like this is like the time the head coach was denying rumors of his star quarterback getting traded, right before the trade goes through.

Sony hemorrhages cash on PS3

It is still not making money

By Nick Farrell: Thursday 17 May 2007, 08:53
Click here to find out more!
SONY, WHICH hoped to be in the black this year, is still losing money on its PS3 console.

The outfit said that it estimates its game unit will post an operating loss of about $413.9 million in the business year to next March.

While this is a bit more optimistic than the loss it predicted before, it is fairly clear the outfit has not recovered from its disastrous PS3 launch.

Sony said that it expects sales at its main electronics unit to rise four to six percent in 2007/8 from a year earlier. It is hoping to be dragged into the black by its strong flat-panel TV sales and might make a profit by March 2008.

Summary:
A Sony representative forecasts that production of their PlayStation 3 console will force the company to take a loss for the next fiscal year, but it will be nowhere near the massive 232 billion yen loss incurred in their last annual report.



Just yesterday, GamePro reported that Sony posted its financial results for the fiscal year ended March 31st, 2007, and the final tally indicated a 68.3% drop in operating income year-over-year. The majority of these losses stemmed from the 232.3 billion yen (US $1.97 billion) loss associated with the development and launch of the PlayStation 3 console.

Yet, despite these setbacks, Reuters reports today that Sony Corp. stock rose to a five-year high on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The origin of this ascent can be attributed to Sony's forecast of a highly successful fiscal year, as well as promises that the company's gaming division would cut down its losses by nearly 80%.

According to the report, Sony senior vice president Takao Yuhara stated that its games division still expects an operating loss of about 50 billion yen (US $414 million), a 21% fraction of last year's annual setback. The company also expects shipments of the PS3 console to rise to at least 11 million units for the next fiscal year, double that of the 5.5 million PS3s shipped from April 2006 to March 2007. However, of those 5.5 million units already shipped, Reuters reports that only 3.6 million (65%) were actually sold to consumers.

Sony Computer Entertainment Interactive's main goal for the coming year will be software development for the PS3, Yuhara later stated. The company's biggest challenge will be the release of its premiere PS3 and PSP titles as an attempt to counteract the dwindling shelf-life of its once mighty PS2. However, in the event that their software business falters, Sony Corp. also believes that strong sales of its other electronics products, such as its Bravia TVs, Vaio PCs, and Cyber-shot cameras, will still be able to drive them towards profitability.

BAAAAAAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHA........HAHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAHHHHAA. Crixxx need a nex "educational/update call" from me when i come back to trini :P 33% of the PS2's that were bought over the course of the 4-5 years were actually online, EVEN though it was free...el cheapo, el modo, el cyahaffordthemodemo. Why you think PS3's not selling? Too expensive for the PS2 (only) fans. More cross platform owners are buying a PS3 than single console owners.

Sony blames Internet for poor PS3 performance

Price has nothing to do with it

By Nick Farrell: Tuesday 22 May 2007, 16:54
Click here to find out more!
SONY AMERICA'S director of corporate communications seems to have a novel approach to criticism of the outfit's new PS3 console.

According to Dave Karakker the reason that the PS3 has been outdone by the Nintendo is nothing to do with the fact it is overpriced, in short supply or in any way pants.

Karakker, who was one of the brains behind Microsoft Bob's marketing, said that the problem is caused by the Internet thing.

He said that a lot of the perceptions of the PS3 are being put about by people who don't have all the facts or have some kind of axe to grind. Such types vent their spleen on the Interweb.

Karakker said that while there were some perceptions on PS3 that were justified. For example, Sony didn't have nearly enough hardware at launch to meet consumer demand.

GamePro couldn't get him to say anything about the price.

ANyone catch the gameplay vid of LAIR on Gametrailers? The game looks TERRIBLE! wtf is that? choo choo choo choo firebolts. I was watching a previous trailer (older one) of an attack on a bridge...the dragon is doing the same thing...each time. To be honest this recent video i saw TOTALY reminded me of BLOOD WAKE for the XBOX....pretty visuals....crappy game :P
To add to that there is no online play announced.

On the other hand i have HIGH hopes for Heavenly Sword. It looks great yes. The demo i played at E3 made me very happy.....felt like God of War with impressive visualizations and nothing is wrong with that. I hope the game has some more depth to it though. In all the demo's there is a huge focus on environment interaction while the AI and enemy design looks the same. Hope to see some boss battles too :)
