i like these bits:
"The PlayStation 3 will also sport some hefty multimedia features, such as video chat, Internet access, digital photo viewing, and digital audio and video. Sony Computer Entertainment head Ken Kutaragi introduced it as a "supercomputer for computer entertainment."
"Hideo Kojima introduced Konami's Metal Gear Solid 4, Capcom showed off Devil May Cry 4, Namco unveiled Tekken 6, Polyphony Digital trotted out Gran Turismo 5, SCEE showed off a brutal section of the next Killzone, and Rockstar Games mentioned that a Grand Theft Auto would be released for the console."

I likee the like the design but the bulbus top means you cant put anything on top of it, like dvd player of xbox.
controller looks weird but it just might work

i would buy it no matter what, it was the same when the ps2 came out, first day i had it with tekken 4..

but the damn font for the new logo is really annoying... its the spiderman font..
- Mirpour0
...but the specs are cool
- scarabin0
...which is also the old xbox font
i don't understand why the 360 and the ps2 look so similar
xbox (and nintendo revolution, actually) is obviously ripping the ps2 by having the consoles stand on their side, but then sony does the "convex" thing while xbox360 does the "concave" thing and then uses a similar font as xbox
and then both rip apple for the white thing

i will work off my ps3 if there is a hack to install ps/illust.

sony released a linux kit for the ps2... maybe something will come out later, perhaps third-party, that will allow us to use the new console as a desktop...
