It looks okay, nothing too special, but nothing that would melt the eyes either.

 

[mattx5]

Very modern and sleek, not to mention a simple interface. Not sure how stackable it'll be though

:lol @ Spider-Man font

Also very happy about the backwards compatibility (that was confirmed, right?). I didn't pick up a PS2 this gen, might have to pick up a PS3 though

So that's two out of three next gen systems revealed. Needless to say, if Nintendo doesn't show the Revolution, any momentum that they might have had coming in will be kicked down into the mud and spat on (And that's coming from a Nintendo fan).

 

[funcojoe]

Sorry but thats ugly imo.

 

[Azrael]

It's double convex

 

[Krowley]

very good looking system... i haven't really cared for the x360's look, but this looks very nice to me.

 

[Rorschach]

Spider-Man wins!

 

[nitewulf]

Xbox360 is being owned just in every way imaginable: CPU power, GPU, Backward compatibility, multimedia possibilities.

wasn't this expected though? i mean seriously? we all knew it was gonna be more powerful, correct?

and damn, that is sexy. and this is curved to, expect outwards. one is inahled, other exhaled. they could mate.

 

[dorio]

XBox360 = Inhale, PS3=EXHALE

:lol

Edit: I'm slow.

[Spectral Glider]

Damn, I didn't think they would go this in depth with the PS3 info. So far all the news is very cool, bc all the way to PS1? That I did not expect at all. I wonder, will we see some graphic upgrades for PS1 and PS2 games with this new horsepower. If not, PS1 games will look beyond ancient with HD connections.

 

[JMPovoa]

Is that a convex shape? looks like it...

 

[VPhys]

Well, the design of the PS3 is definitely better than the 360.

But, at least it's not the HUGE difference there was last generation. The XBox 1 was just fugly, and the 360 looks almost as good as the PS3, and I'm sure to some people even better.

Hell, the XBox360 design may even be more Japanese friendly than the PS3 design.

 

[McFly]

I love the design, I really do!

Fredi

 

[xabre]

Ya know Xbox360 and PS3 can easily stack on top of each other

Heh true

Design is decent, better than Xbox 360. I'm calling it early though, I believe Rev will look better than either.

 

[mj1108]

The back?

 

[MIMIC]

Very first impression: looks really nice

 

[Insertia]

Wow, that looks fucking nice. Definetly better than the Xbox 360 design.

Though, it doesn't look like it's meant to be laid horizontally .

 

[Nervous Hamster]

I am sold!!!

[Pedigree Chum]

I love the slot loading the touch sensative on/off button. VERY NICE SONY

DMC4 and FF stay on PS3 confirmed

+ detailed specs

 

[Ryudo]

Wow, that looks fucking nice. Definetly better than the Xbox 360 design.

Its hideous.

 

[Spike]

Meh.

 

[DCharlie]

i wonder if the PS3 and Xbox 360 are stackable???

 

[Mashing]

It looks great vertical, but it looks too much like a flatbed scanner horizontal.

 

[LittleTokyo]

Rumor report: Chaos in the Windy City 2 has been moved to the PS3 launch.

 

[Drexon]

PS3 design >>>>>>> Xbox 360. LET THE WARS BEGIN! *Waves large sword and charges forw *zzzzzzzzzz*

 

[Pedigree Chum]

The back?

Bigger shot?

 

[Mrbob]

Multi color at launch?

Heh, looks like Sony learned a trick from Nintendo.

 

[Black Widow]

The system flat reminds me of a waffle iron. Open and pour waffle mix. Not sexy.

 

[Sathsquatch]

what exactly are they saying at Beyond 3d?

 

[teiresias]

To show off the PlayStation 3's graphical brawn, Sony showed several game demos, including an Unreal 3 tech demo of what appeared to be Unreal Tournament 2007. In what must come as a relief to developers, Epic Games' Tim Sweeney was on hand to vouch for the PS3, saying it was "easy to program for" and that Epic had received its first PS3 hardware two months ago. He proved the tech demo was real time by showing it again and manipulating the camera and zooming in.

Who was that saying we'd never see Unreal Engine on PS3?? :lol

 

[Father_Brain]

It's sleek, but those pics make it look pretty bulky. I need to see some scale comparisons and different angles.

 

[human5892]

Design looks good! I much prefer it to Xbox 360.

 

[TheDuce22]

All the people bitching about the xbox 360 design were owned either way.

Edit: Wow, it looks much worse laying on its side.. or from basically any angle but the one posted above.

 

[UltraMagnanimous]

The back

(someone mirror please )

 

[aperfectt00l]

PS3=Convex
X-Box 360=Concave
Revolution= ???

Definitly likeing the design of the PS3 better then the 360.

 

[evil ways]

So, is it cool to use a handheld as a controller now? Tell me GAF, I gots ta know!!

Yes, as long as the handheld is a sexy looking, state of the art piece of hardware and not some piece of shit 16-bit cash cow.

 

[cyberheater]

No. Am not liking that design but i'm sure it will grow on me.

 

[Benedict]

So can anyone measure it's size by comparing the slots in the back for example USB?

 

[dorio]

I love the design, I really do!

Fredi

They also lit it well.

 

[GashPrex]

looks ok i guess, i don't really care about what they look like

 

[SKOPE]

I give you... ps3...

Is that a slot-loading drive I see? Ugh. Those things look cool, but they introduce a long list of problems that can be avoided by using a tray- or flip top-drive instead.

Expect to regularly hear about people ruining two discs because they forgot there was still one in the drive when they tried to insert a second one and nonstandard-shaped discs getting stuck in there.

At least it looks like we'll get a choice of colors from the start. Black doesn't match my TV stand at all.

 

[highrollinn]

damn that's not as good looking as I'd hoped...

[vitaflo]

But the Xbox 360 and PS3 curve on different axis. Not stackable at all!

 

[RazzleDazzleRB]

More newz:

A Getaway sequel has just been announced for PS3.

PlayStation 3's Blu-Ray Disk medium at 6x will feature 324Mb/sec data transfer rate. This will enable extremely fast load times.

 

[MacGuffin]

Wireless? How many controller ports? Ideas?

 

[Gattsu25]

 

[Gek54]

Thank god its black, I hate white consoles.
