Fierce_LiNk Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 It dosn't have built in wi-fi, flash card readers and supposely a "chrome trim". I don't know what the chrome trim thing is... Flash card reader, like the ability to use SD cards on the Wii, right? And, correct me if I'm wrong, but neither of the current Xbox360 systems come with built in wi-fi, right? It doesn't seem that bad to me, imo.

immy Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 You can't upgrade it. What? I'm sure shane on 1up said you could.
Fierce_LiNk Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 You can't upgrade it. You mean once you've run out of space on the hard-drive, that's it? Is that the same for the 60GB model as well? What about with the 360, is it possible to use bigger HDDs in the future?

Domstercool Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Err you can use a laptop hard drive with the PS3. You could go and buy a 500GB one if you wanted, just put it in and the PS3 installs the OS on it for you. Better than having to buy expensive Microsoft 360 harddrive stuff TBH. Just bought Super Rub a Dub for 3.49. Simple and fun stuff, nothing new in design but just simple fun. it got 6/10 on eurogamer.

It's quacking great! 6/10 is about right though. Lovely water effects. (To everyone else) Don't be a 'feather-head' and not download it! For £3.49, it's well worth it!
Caris Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 You can upgrade the PS3 HDD, i've done it takes 2minutes.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Yeah, so I watched Casino Royale on Blu ray, on a big HD TV. I swear to god I came a bit. Nothing that looks that good can be healthy for your eyes.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Awsome innit Aye I wasn't aware just how awesome it was. It's motivated me to actually look for a job so I can afford it and a fooking massive TV.
Hero-of-Time Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Just been watching the trailers for Monster Hunter Freedom 2, man I need that game. Its a shame more people havent played that series of games because they truely are amazing and one of the better series of games that have come out of the capcom camp in recent years.

I'm going to check it out, i think. Sounds interesting.
Hero-of-Time Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 I'm going to check it out, i think. Sounds interesting. You can get the first one for £17.99 on play.com. Also by using xlink you can go online with it aswell, I never did when I had my PSP but apparently there are loads of people who play it online using that system.
That dude Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 Lately I've been wanting a PSP! I don't know why. Really I only see 3 games I'm interested in:GTA: Liberty City Stores Vice City Stories Star wars battlefront Tell me is there going to be a San Andres Stories. Because that may push me into getting a PSP. Just going to repeat this...
Domstercool Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 There's no new info on the next GTA on the PSP. Rockstar Leeds did say though that if it was possible to have all the islands running on the psp from San Andreas, they would produce a SA stories. Not long till Valhalla Knights is out. 2 days!
1UP Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 When playing GTA vice city stories on my PSP, it felt so slow, like really clunky and the framerate felt like 15 FPS....
The Bard Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Played Resistance today. It's not actually a bad game from what I can see, but the PS3 controller fucks it up badstyle. Some mega awesome weapons.
rokhed00 Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 Played Resistance today. It's not actually a bad game from what I can see, but the PS3 controller fucks it up badstyle. Some mega awesome weapons. PS pad never was the best for FPS.
Guest Jordan Posted April 16, 2007 Posted April 16, 2007 The PS3 pad has huge dead zones, it annoys the crap out of me.. not to mention the triggers are like cats tounges. I dunno, apart from the D-pad, which is far superior on the PS pads the 360 one has it easily beaten.
Owen Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 When playing GTA vice city stories on my PSP, it felt so slow, like really clunky and the framerate felt like 15 FPS.... Really? I haven't played it in a while but i thought the framerate was ok... Anyone interested in 'Crash or Crush (whatever it's called) it's by Sega and has you running around 3D worlds collecting orbs which the turn into 2D ala Super Paper Mario! Out May 25th.
Dante Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 FFXIII info: -The game is supposed to be more sci-fi than traditional fantasy; -Lightning is really the main character -Several cutscenes will have a "split display" system that will allow to show what's happening in the game to different characters in different locations at the same time; -Lightning is supposed to be a very mysterious character, rarely talking about herself; -They still aren't sure if FFXIII will have any mini-games: It is possible that the mini-games are developed into additional, separate releases; -FFXIII's drama scenes will have an extra sense of presence and impact, thanks to PS3's high-resolution capabilities; -FFXIII should be just as long as your average FF; The story details revealed at Jump Festa cleared out (no more confusing/ incomplete translations): Game will be set on a floating island called Cocoon. A separate world, used as refuge for those who are evicted from Cocon, is called Pulse. The game's plot seems to be more political than most FF games, with a focus on how the governement of Cocoon and Pulse is treating its citizens in its domain. Initially, there is an invasion of Cocoon by beings from Pulse, which leads to a quasi-revolution. Cocoon, as its name suggests, has developed into something of a haven from the ills of FFXIII's universe, leaving those outside of Cocoon in a dangerous environment. Crystals formed Cocoon, but it seems that Cocoon's strenghts as a fortress are susceptible to infiltration and, more alarmingly for its inhabitants, the prostect that Cocoon could be dislodged from its position above the orbit of Pulse.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Several cutscenes will have a "split display" system that will allow to show what's happening in the game to different characters in different locations at the same time Final Fantasy meets 24?
