The Big PS3 Show
Bunnyman:
It must be noted, however, that the PS3 controller is still essentially a DualShock, possibly the best-engineered game controller in the short history of Videogames.
Still, it's looking like the X360 all over again. Economical (read: useless) version, Deluxe (read: usable) version. I expect a large mob of pitchfork-wielding rubes who don't understand "small print."
Ozymandias:
The Dual Shock has fallen out of favor with me. Giving the D-pad prime position and putting the analog stick down below no longer feels right. The XB360 controller now reigns as the pinnacle traditional controller, in my opinion. Perfect fit, perfect button placement, and even the silliest feature of all: the ability to turn on the 360 with it, seems like an awesome amount of power.
Shadowlink137:
I think Little Gamers said it best. Seriously these systems must be able to be bought by those that aren't super-rich (me). I already wasn't going to get a PS3, but this just reaffirms it. The Xbox 360 core was 300, and although a little steep was OK. The core PS3 at $500? Way too expensive.

The $500 (basic) model also lacks Wifi support, Memory Stick/SD card support, and HDMI support.

What's the point of a Blu-Ray movie player w/o HDMI support . . ? IMO, if Microsoft throws a $100 price drop before PS3 launch, Sony's sales figures might not go as planned.
Bunnyman:
yeah, precisely. At least with the X360 all you needed to do in order to upgrade a core was to buy a (marked-up) hard drive. If you get buyer's remorse with the PS3, GET A NEW ONE.
I'm liking the Revolution more and more. Or...sticking with the PS2 and my trusty PC.
