Posted October 30, 2006 Only 80k PS3 sold in Japan now. :shock: What's worse than 100,000 units at launch? How about 80,000? The Nikkei Keizai Shimbun morning edition reports today that due to component shortages, Sony will have only 80,000 units ready for the PS3's 11/11 Japanese launch. This cuts back by a fifth the initial launch target of 100,000. The lack of digits in that number is even more staggering when you consider that the PS2 sold out of nearly a million units when it launched back in March of 2000. Having lived through a few weeks of attempting to obtain a PS3 pre-order, we're not too surprised by the lowered shipping numbers. Allocations disappeared quickly at online retailers that were brave enough to start pre-order programs. The online arm of media retailer Tsutaya ran out of units in 6 minutes according to Nikkei (it felt more like 1 minute to us). Major electronics chains like Yodobashi Camera won't be taking pre-orders, Nikkei reports, so there's only one option left: line up the day before launch. Although with fewer units to go around, we're considering getting in line starting from the week prior. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 31, 2006 First scores come out for PS3 games. Miyazato Golf Club 7-7-7-7 - You can't accurately determine where your shot will fall - Doesn't really look next-generation Genji 7-7-7-8 - Bad camera, but looks great - Challenging for beginners - Good amount of content - Good controls Resistance: Fall Of Man 9-8-8-8 - Standard FPS gameplay - Excellent netplay - Very high standard of next-generation Gundam 8-8-8-8 - Excellent models of Mobile Suits - Opinions on the game are divided because it relies heavily on accurate input - The systems are problematic - Great textures - Tons of optional and unlockable content - Overall it's satisfying even though opinions are divided on it Ridge Racer 7 9-9-9-9 - Totally satisfactory - The amount of content is totally satisfying - The high quality of the graphics and sound are very pleasing WOOO RIDGE RACER. I love that series so I'm very happy with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 31, 2006 Not only does the PLAYSTATION 3 look like a Victorian waffle iron, it also heats up like one. Fact: The Sony behemoth hoovers up 380 watts of power. Play the console for 4 hours a day and add US $80 to your annual electricity bill. The console needs eight (yes, eight) times the power the PS2 need to propel its gaming goodness as well as twice the Xbox 360's hot hot 160 watts. And the 360 can cook eggs! Meaning? The PS3 can melt floors or something. http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/ps3/ps3-like-the-360-but-twice-the-heat-211225.php Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 31, 2006 Actually that contradicts what gamespot found with the final retail ps3 that it was both quiet and pretty cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 2, 2006 And that is why I can afford so many games, because I don't go out to pubs. I'm just curious, but when you mean going out to pubs, do you also mean going out in general. Things like socialising? It's not intended as a dig, but i'm just curious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 2, 2006 Your bragging that your life revolves around pubs??? I'm not really into socialising....i mean going drinking to pubs and clubs. My area ain't really 'for me' and theres alot of people who i don't really like because there really rude and horrible. I haven't got much confidence either, so a this time in my life i rather stay home and play games with my mates then go out (although i can't and won't do this forever). I'm hoping my socialising gets better with age! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 2, 2006 I go out, but not to pubs. I usually hang around with my mates and go to cinemas and such. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
