im first
and people are becoming dumber and dumber... I mean people get overpaid now, that they buy stuff without thinking or researching. I remember a time when everyone did research when they bought something over 300$
Well I still do....and that's why I havn't gotten a PS3....
But ya, we are living in an age of the brainwashed consumer....throw away lives and such....it's pretty pathetic...
said on why i did not buy a 360 even before the PS3 and Wii launched and why i'm still not buying one now or in the future...
to think i probably know more about the 360 (good and bad) than most of the people i know who has one cause of all the research...
and for me personally what i derived is...
i've got a PS3, a Wii, and a PC... i'm set for this generation.
its BS online polls. people try to be funny when it asks
1. Yes Iknow
2. Not really
3. What's Blu-ray?
all the idiots think its hilarious to pick # 3
i have to say that the results are somewhat disappointing
Thats not research thats just ignorance like the rest of the fools who dislike the PS3.
Unlike you and the rest, i knew and researched about the PS3 b4 any real person knew about it in 2001, and cause of that i bought the PS3 knowing its going to dominate this year. The 360 is a good piece of technology and gaming console for sure but doesn't stack up to PS3. The Wii is another good piece of hardware but lacks graphics for this gen, but has Wii remote and with it current price makes it a fun and good game.
But all in all People just don't research anymore they expect to use the machine for gaming and nothing else. If they actually research we would have problems on how to take care of systems, Like the stupid kid who put duct tape of the air vents.
I have a PS3, PC and my sis just got a wii and just like Quixand i think im pretty good this gen. Maybe one day i will get the 360 but not now, i can just go over my friends house to play Halo 3 since that was the only reason for me getting it.
"Unlike you and the rest, i knew and researched about the PS3 b4 any real person knew about it in 2001"
That's a bit pompous Stealth! Why are you assuming you know more about the PS3 than Shatterdome and "the rest".
Care to share some of this knowledge about the console you claim to have researched for at least 6 years!
Also, how is the PS3 dominating this year?
It was an online survey, how legit and accurate could those responses be. 60% don't know what's blu-ray, are you fu*king kidding me. Are you telling me 60% of PS3 owners are still using sticks and stones to make fire.
sad but true, most people are idiots.
make a survey here in a single QJ post, over 60 percent of the comments are stupid.
I know a lot of people who still call game controllers paddles. So many people don't even know what next gen gaming is all about. Sometimes when I am at Target or some other retailers and they are showing a game demo or a real time in game video on the monitors I hear people saying "what movie is that?" and then they go about their business without even knowing what they are really looking at. Also so many people think that next gen game systems are just for games. They don't realize that they also play movies, personal videos, music, pictures, and have internet access capabilities. Some people that come over to my house and visit see me playing PS3 and ask me "what are you watching?" and they don't understand why I have a controller in my hand with no wire. They think thats weird. And also I hear comments like " oh we have a Nintendo" and then I realize it is the original Nintendo Entertainment System and they haven't played it for years and it is somewhere stashed away at their house and they don't understand that PS3 is pretty different than the original NES games. At least we know and I guess as we grow and pass that knowledge to others, there will become a day that no one will not know about these things and they will become part of everyday life.
straight to the point WTF has Blu Ray and people not giving a ***** about it got t do with the 360?.
Gears and Banjo and kazoo and blue dragoon for me..
"to think i probably know more about the 360 (good and bad) than most of the people i know who has one cause of all the research..."
WTF is that supposed to mean? Are you a XBOX 360 researcher? I know you search the internet reporting negative XBOX 360 news to qj, but that's just desperate fanboyism there! One time you said "it doesn't even work" regarding the 360, but you don't own one so how can you say that? Oh yeah your extensive research.
I think it's good people don't know what blu ray is because it proves sony's advertising and PR efforts are a failure.
"Unlike you and the rest, i knew and researched about the PS3 b4 any real person knew about it in 2001, and cause of that i bought the PS3 knowing its going to dominate this year. The 360 is a good piece of technology and gaming console for sure but doesn't stack up to PS3. The Wii is another good piece of hardware but lacks graphics for this gen, but has Wii remote and with it current price makes it a fun and good game."
So does that mean you're not a real person?
Since I'm sure that was just poor wording, all joking aside, how exactly were you researching the PS3 not long after the PS2's 2000 release? The only information that was out at the time was the fact that it'll be called the PlayStation 3.
it has to be fake because every time sony talks about the PS3 the talk about the Blu-ray so this is total bull***** or people are trying to be funny
Because if you actually do REAL research, and read indepth articles on places like arstechnica...and not just Sony PR propaganda, then you would know that 360 is set to be the better gaming machine.
Sure if you want a blu-ray player or a linux box, PS3 would be a better choice. For straight up games though, the architecture within the 360 is more unified and efficient and will provide for the better gaming experience technically.
Look at Killzone, it's no better or worse then gears of war, but it's taken them 1.5-2 years after gears of war came out for them to make something that looks similar....also Darkness, GRAW2, DIRT, R6 Vegas, were all said to run smoother and have more/better SFX on the 360....and most of the games came out ages ago (especially R6 Vegas, should have been improved alot in the 6+ months it took to come out on PS3...but it's worse)
So then, tell me why PS3 is better, when it's obviously worse....and don't pull the "it was released a year late" BS....all that had to do with was blu-ray, a non-essential piece of hardware in the development process....meaning devs have had as much time on PS3 (in most cases more since their games take longer to come out) as on 360....
Sorry, but Sony has been in your head abit too much...
It just seems we people who go on the internet are the minority and were intelegent : ) and to prove my point you could never discuss this with youre freinds there just dam STUPID or ignorant
so technically only 40% knows... so that means 4 out of 10 PS3 owners..
then only half of that actually used it to watch Blu Ray movies so that's 2 for every 10 owners.
and still Blu Ray is slapping HDDVD's mug left and right.
oh man... HDDVD has no chance.
...you would fall into that 60% of idiots.
HDDVD? what is that?
can i use it on my ps3?
what games are available on HDDVD?
-------
PS3 20GB model / 60gb External HDD - Core2Duo e6600 OC 3.11ghz - GF8800 GTS640MB - 2GB DDR2 - 800gb SATA HDD - Generic 19 Inches 1080p HDTV
are barely even a statistic..
you don't matter.
And yet those who know PS3 plays blu ray HD movies are used to buying games every so often, yet there are so few games to buy, so they buy many blu ray movies instead!
Face it nobody cares about blu ray or HD DVD. The format war sony started is killing them both. Sony tricked a few million people wanting a game console into getting a movie player so they're buying movies, and it is giving blu ray just enough of a lead to stay ahead. It's pretty sad really.
Funny it just seems smart to me. They kill two birds with one stone. I personally buy blu-ray movies. I enjoy the quality and depth with uncompressed audio. You would have to see and hear HD to appreciate it.
" and you ULO
are barely even a statistic..
you don't matter."
That was a little uncalled for. This is the Internet, and on it, you don't matter any more than anyone else.
So this is why people complain about the PS3 price, THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT IT DOES!
"The PS3 is a rip off!"
"It's to much for a console."
"I can buy a iPhone for that much!."
People are f*cking idiots. Maybe if they knew what the product actully does they would SHUT THEIR F*CKING CHEAP ASS MOUTH!
If people actually knew what it had NO ONE would say it's too expensive.
People are not idiots for saying the things you've quoted. For many gamers, it IS TOO EXPENSIVE. It is far more than they are willing to spend for a games console even if they can afford it.
Blu-ray doesn't make it worth it for those individuals unless they actually WANTED a Blu-ray player to begin with.
So for *some*, it is a rip off and it is too much to pay for a console. In a few years, when the price is much lower, many of them will feel different, but that doesn't mean they are wrong today, and it certainly doesn't make them all idiots.
Iphone
wa a bag of balloks tbh
just another hype
iphone has been hacked so you can use your cingular sim card on it. you dont have to activate a new 2 year plan anymore
at a $600 phone (and that without the contract!)
Humans are becoming dumber and dumber each day.
I'm guessing you're the living proof...
When did the PS3 came out? ***** I THOUGHT I BOUGHT THE GEORGE FOREMAN 5000~! No wonder it's not FDA approved!
I bought this black box thingy, and I can grill my steaks to perfection... you just open it up (a few screws) and pop your steak right inside, turn on... maybe play a game or two (usually let my dog do that) and then it's DONE!
I like my GEORGE FORMAN GRILL!
I would say, at most, they asked 80% of all ps3 owners. Of those they got 60% who didn't know about blu-ray. Lets break that down as well:
-10% are probably rich bastard kids who will buy anything that's expensive and seems cool. (to dumb to understand blu-ray)
-Another 28% are probably just normal casual people who liked the ps2 and were able to scrap enough money to buy a ps3 while not knowing/caring that it had blu-ray
-Another 12% are probably people who bought it in less advanced countries. Where blu-ray sales are near non existent. Most likely leading them to not care/know about blu-ray.
And 70% 360 owners ask: "what's hd?"
Well thier bloody idiots then ;)
These polls are so stupid. Bull***** 60% of PS3 players dont know what Blu Ray is. There isnt a rock big enough in to world to hide under and still find a PS3 without knowing what Blu Ray is.
They're probably surveying the purchasers kids'...
"Hi little boy, I hear your daddy bought a PS3, we'll just say its yours... do you know what Blu Ray is? No? HAHAHAHAHAHA It's all falling into place!"
>"Bull***** 60% of PS3 players dont know what Blu Ray is"
quote: "NPD Methodology
The report is based on online survey responses from 6,260 members of NPD's online consumer panel. These respondents, compromised of males and females ages 6 to 44, are qualified owners of at least one next generation system (PS3, PSP, Wii, NDS, Xbox 360). In addition, non-owners were captured in order to further probe on next generation system purchase intent and other areas. Fieldwork was conducted from April 4-10, 2007."
Just because you spend your time discussing consoles and games on forums and therefore know about Blu-ray, doesn't mean everyone who has a PS3 knows what it is, whatever their age.
There's a blu-ray logo on the box, and inside there's the small catalog/pamplet of blu-ray movies selection w/ discounts. I could understand if it was 30% but 60%, you gotta be *****ing me.
"There's a blu-ray logo on the box, and inside there's the small catalog/pamplet of blu-ray movies selection w/ discounts"
If they have no interest in the PS3 other than using as a games console, then such details will be ignored and pamplets thrown away, especially by those who don't waste hours each day on forums talking about it. ;)
"I could understand if it was 30% but 60%"
The figures are there, it's 60%. Blu-ray is not as important to the majority of gamers as some people like to make out.
"Owners and likely buyers" is nowhere near the same as just "owners". And lets be serious nobody 6-15 is an really an owner or a likely buyer of any game system.
The number is really just the percentage of their total sample which includes the people who just own a NDS, Wii, or PSP and have no 360 or PS3. The headline here on QJ is complete BS. You could as easily sensationalize it as "Over 60% of Wii owners [and likely buyers] don't know that HiDef games exist."

You're 9 years old and your daddy doesn't know you're on the computer.
Look up "as is ps3" on ebay. For a system that should still be under warranty, there sure are a lot of broken PS3s going for cheap.
Looks like no video output is the PS3's biggest problem from what I see on the internet. I guess sony must have some pretty horrible customer support because that system is still less than a year old. My XBOX is 16 months old with no problems. oh yeah.
You say the biggest problem is the video output yet you don't have a 360 with HDMI. Finally Microsoft is catching up and getting on the bandwagon.
Sir, you truly are a Moron.
If u hate the PS3 so much why do u spend ur time bashing it on this site???? Go play ur 360 and leave us alone to make a "big deal" about it... ur not welcome here so make like a fly and buzz away!!!
