I have a Mits, RPTV that does 1080i will the Ps3 player downscale the Blu-ray movies to 480p or will it do 1080i? I am thinking about buying this primarily for the blu-ray player but not if It won't do 1080i.

PS3 will output 1080i for BR movies just fine, it's games you have to worry about. If your TV doesn't support 720p, the PS3 will downscale games to 480p.

If you use component, you'll golden until studios decide to implement HDCP.

my set does have HDMI so that is most likely the connection I would use. Also, why should I consider buying a 60 Gb over a 20 Gb? What does the hard drive get used for other then game saves?

I think all games install a few gigs of info on the HDD to shorten load times and such.

Demo's just like your 360. Music, pics and video's just like the 360

I think it's not so much the HDD is the big consideration. Don't quote me, but I believe the 60G version PS3 is wifi, and wireless where the other version is not. I think there may be a feature or two difference as well.

I do know the HDD can be changed out to a bigger one; I think for both versions.

I figured by now Sony would have had some kind of update on the game video issues by now. That's a very big issue to still have.

And at this point, getting a PS3 is mainly for a BR player. There just aren't many games that are memorable for the machine. Very similar to the 360 launch titles.

The Box had COD2, Bryan, and that was it. The other titles were gay.

From a personal taste in games perspective, i think the 360 was pretty light on launch titles also. From December - Feb, the only games that appealed to me were COD2 and Madden -- I found the others pretty lame. In Feb, Fight Night 3 picked up the slack. It wasn't until March with GRAW, BF2, and the ultimate time stealer, Oblivion, that the 360 really started to get interesting. I rememebr in early Feb last year, i was so bored with 360 titles that I was mostly playing an OG Xbox title, KOTOR 2, for fun.

Well if inanimate objects can be gay then I was queering it up with Condemned, Project Gothem Racing, Kameo, Quake 4, Need for Speed UnderGround, CoD2, and shortly after launch Dead or Alive 4. Games that might be homosexual to you Brew, but I liked. http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/xbox360launchgames.htm

BiffCo · 02-25-2007, 12:01 PM

Condemned is still my favorite 360 game, followed closely by Crackdown.

I believe there are three things different in the 60 gig version: Wifi access built in, the size of the HD, and chrome accents... oh wait, make that 4 - the 60 gig also has the built in memory card readers in the front of the machine.

Jon Liu · 02-26-2007, 01:19 AM

Yeah, I think the bigger hard drive and also Wifi made it a clear winner for me. My router is in the other room and I didn't want to run ANOTHER wire from my router to the PS3...

BiffCo · 02-27-2007, 11:28 AM

I have to say, the chrome finish just looks fugly to me.

Peench · 02-27-2007, 02:27 PM

Yeah well you look fugly to me! Damn MS fanboy.

Jon Liu · 02-27-2007, 05:26 PM

hahaha nice. I actually like the contrast between the black and the chrome!

I wouldn't like too much chrome but, this is a great amount, IMO.
