    To be fair when i played RR7 i was so unimpressed i got the feeling it could have been last gen.

    Of course the PS3 will get much better, i just say it as i saw it.

      Obviously, your friend talks absolute ****e. And I would know.

      I am getting sick of having to mention that i also have a 360 though, otherwise im subject to troll chants.

          when i played it on sunday i didn't think much, but i've never really thought much of stuff when playing it like that in a shop/public place. i'd be a git if i ever went to e3

          but on thursday there was one actually in our department (i was too busy to bother hooking it up to play but just took it out of the box and did silly things with it and nearly dropped it) and now i want one
          i've been ripping into it in arguments with my mates but in all honesty i can't fault the machine itself i'm just really ripping into sony for a laugh.

          it was the same with the 360 - i thought it was lame until i borrowed one from work and actually had it at home and ended up buying that very same one.

          as for it looking no better than ps2 in hd, *anything* in hd is better-looking than ps2 (unless it's a ps2 game in 720p of course!) just because of the resolution jump.

          not long now till i take the component lead over there and see ridge 7 as it deserves to be seen...

            Dunno about the Brum one - but they have one in Solihull....

            Can't say I was that impressed tbh - saw one of the scroats that work in there playing Resistance on a normal TV, looked quite average from the 5 mins I saw...

              Why do you want one then?

              The machine has nothing to show for it so far, personally anyway, I've not been ripping into it, more just letting it be as it has nothing to talk about now it's here.

              I don't think anyone said it doesn't look any better in HD, I've not seen it in HD, so in composite it looks like a PS2 game.

                Why do people have a need to justify their buying decisions? Just because you have a 360 does not mean you now have to slam the PS3, and vice versa. I'm getting really pissed at another mate who keeps coming out with such drivel about the PS3, he just has to belittle it because he has a 360.

                Guess I'm not as insecure.
                It's got **** all to do with owning a 360, and everything to do with being asked to shell out 500 notes on a piece of technology, which should be offering a lot more than it does currently.

                It's patently clear that the ps3 is an underpowered machine (emotion engine, anyone?) and most of the cost is for the ****ing blu-ray drive.

                Why, Sony, why?

                  With most people it is nothing to do with having a 360 already. It's more to do with the fact that both the 360 & Wii show the console up for the joke it is fast becoming known as. The console has been so hyped by Sony it could never meet anybodies expectations.

                    when playing ridge 7 in composite i could tell that it would look nice from the amount of stuff going on, but just that i could tell it doesn't really look better than the 360 one in hd or otherwise. to me, the new, more natural environments could have been done just fine on the 360 but they're what make it look a bit nicer.

                    in terms of wanting a ps3 now, it's just because a) i'll buy one sooner or later anyway, b) the linux stuff is interesting, c) it plays avc stuff outta the box unlike the 360 which is great cos all the hd tv programs i get are in that format, d) while sony hyped it into some kind of shiny black god, i like to think i've learned enough over the years to see through their bull**** and just take it for what it is.

                    don't get me wrong - my wanting it doesn't mean i'm prepared to slap down the current asking price, no way jose, but i don't hate it at all. i'm no console-hater

                      I understand about the Linux thing, personally, I'm going to wait until they've either confirmed that it's muchos easyos to get HD content on there, as well as games and all that through an external hard drive, and play it in a nice easy way too (through a Media Centre-type player), and for the ol' yarr aspect perhaps (well, emulators more than anything). Keyboard and mouse support would be very nice!

                      What's AVC?

                      From what I saw of RR7, it looked the same as the 360 version, but then it was in composite.

                          i assume you will be able to use the PS1's rf unit as the PS3 uses the same a/v connector but come on running a ps3 on a 14" just aint right man. actully i have a rf lead somewhere and a old sony 14" may give it a try.
