PS3: Welcome Chang3

Yeah the controller is wacky, but perhaps it’s comfortable so we just have to wait and see, and the design is not what I’ve expected but screw that the insides are far sexyer.

If anyone didnt notice, doesnt the font that says "Playstation 3" on the console remind you of the Spiderman Movie font ???

Yea it does. Also it says there 6 USB ports. Looks like 4 on the back, and 4 in the front.

4 in front, 2 in back... and the other 2 that look like USB are HDMI on back.

how come you guys have it at 2+ terraflops but every other news site has it at like 256 gflops...?

*edit* i just found the answer and i think that you should change the homepage thing.

the 360's CPU alone will do 1 tflop. the ps3's cell will do ONLY 218 gflops on it's own while the gpu will do the 1.x tflops. and since the xbox's gpu tflop count hasnt been released yet, there's nothing to compare it to...

i guess the 2.18 tflops is TOTAL system power, not just the cpu.

and since the xbox's 1 tflop is just the cpu, you really should change that.

A graph to figure it out :-p

as far as the controller goes i say wait and see.

in all the original screenshots most people hated the gamecube controller, after the first time i used it i loved it, holding it just felt so natural.

and if it does suck they can always change it like microsoft did on the old '2 potato' sized controler.
