Totally rediculous...What about all of those games that are out now? Doesn't anyone think that this could throw off developers who were striving for 60 fps with awesome graphics? tisk tisk sony.

I still think the PS3 will be sold out everywhere launch day. Regardless of the price, the internet is only a small portion of people who actually buy things. And only even a smaller fraction of those people actually speak up on message boards and such.

But really, the PS3 does offer quite a bit for the price. But I don't plan on getting one, not for a while, I have no desire for consoles, for the most part.

Rom: My point exactly and since he didn't even cite a source I'm as sceptical as should be.

But can as well follow his advice, god that post was full of anger Razz

Here goes;

You teh sux0r 2 sae teh PS3 is not going to teh r0x0r! Yew lie, yew 360 luvr. U teh sux! U maek thing up, go die!!!1111one!1!!!1 heheheheh

*twitch* I think I'm chocking... such a terrible missuse of a language...

Edit: Oh the irony! I read up a bit and it's almost a year on the day that the Inq posted faulty news that the PS3 was downgraded. Razz

My head hurts now. Sad

It probably isn't real, but its pretty bad if it is.

Oh yeah, and I was just thinking of another example of the internet not being as fullfilling as its users are led to believe.

Snakes on a Plane... Great movie, got pretty decent reviews. Opened up 1st at the box office, second weekend? 9th...Explain how the internet is such a huge force. And it only did 15 mil the first weekend and only like 5 mil the second weekend. Blah. Sad
