friso 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 i suppose you mean Xbox 2?well, i think everything deserves full attention. i will see the opinions on it, and then i might get interested... i'm not gonna wait for the exact release date, you never know what it's like. one of them might hurry and finish it fast, so they can be a competition for the other on the same date. hurrying never is good when developing something, so that might work out not so great...

Caderay 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 That would be stupid to release both systems on the same day. But maybe I'm wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the empty calorie 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 I'm a bit over the numbers on the end...whatever happened to calling it something else? Sony can get away wit hthe numbers, but MS being the copycats they are....just have to stick a 2 on there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Caderay 0 Report post Posted April 14, 2005 Why wouldn't they make the XBOX 2 support XBOX games. That's very stupid and I agree, they'll be no where near the sales of PS3. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yamato 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2005 I absolutely cannot keep up with all of these new consoles. I barely had a GBA (not an SP, mind you, but one of the crappy generic ones) when the DS came out. I do not even have a PS2 anymore, and was planning on getting one of the slim ones, but now the PSP AND PS3 are coming out? It is absolutely nuts. In the rush to make new consoles, they seem to forget to actually make a wide variety of games for each. So I buy a several hundred dollar console and have maybe two or three games which I enjoy playing on it, and -- oops! Time to buy the next console! I am getting really fed up with gaming in general now ahaha. What ever happened to the games? The new consoles had better be backwards compatible. If PS3 does not play PS1 games and if the XBox2 does not play XBox games, I will be very, very angered. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
d'vampress 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2005 Are you really sure that these two new consoles will be released i the same day? I mean, that's quite unbelievable...But I'm really excited for the PS3 to come out, I can't wait to get my hands on one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tcave 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2005 I'm saving my money for a PS3and I don't believe that those two will be released on the SAME dayI'm probably wrong, but that just doesn't seem to make very good marketing sensewill PS3s be capable of playing PS1 games?

I mean, that's quite unbelievable...But I'm really excited for the PS3 to come out, I can't wait to get my hands on one. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I doubt they'd both be coming out on the same day... and I also doubt that either of them will be released May 16. That's way too soon. I'm sure that both companies will have pictures of the consoles, and screenshots of the games being played on the consoles months before their actual release. Not to mention the marketing, and game reviews from popular websites and magazines. I would expect to see all of this MONTHS before the release of either console. But I don't know... maybe they are being advertised already in other countries? Us Aussies usually have to wait a little longer to get all of that stuff anyway.I just don't expect to see these consoles being released within the nect month or 2... there would be a lot more hype and advertising for them than there is at the moment.

saxsux 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2005 Have they actually thought up a name for the new Xbox yet? Last time I checked, there wasn't a name for it yet.I find the fact that the new Xbox wont be able to play old Xbox games. If it can't, its hardly a sequel is it? More like a brand new console under the same name of an older one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

More like a brand new console under the same name of an older one. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Of course it's still a sequel. Don't you remember the Super Nintendo>Nintendo 64... they are both sequels to the original Nintendo (NES), yet they were not capable of playing the earlier model's games. Anyway, about the PS3 and Xbox2 being released in May... I heard today that this year's E3 is being held in May, and the PS3 will be released there for public display for the first time. It is quite possible that the Xbox2 will also be released there at the same time. I don't know if this is true though, just something I heard from a friend today. Nonetheless, I don't think we'll be seeing either console released for sale till next year. The PS3 sounds very exciting too... another thing my friend was telling me was the processor in it is meant to be 36Ghz or something, I really don't know if that's right, I haven't looked into it, but 36Ghz would be very impressive. I think they're calling it "The Cell" if anyone wants to look it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
