Ps3 Hologram?

mattknoffmattknoff Join Date: 2003-10-01 Member: 21366Members
An unknown source by the name of David Martin decided to email the PS3x crew a couple of days ago with some information regarding the PS3. Now, it took us a couple of days to decide whether or not to report it, I’m sorry to say – we were deciding whether it’s genuine or not. To be honest, we don’t have a clue whether it is or not, but we’re reporting it anyway. We’re sceptical, but apparently this guy’s Uncle works for BMW, who had a visit from another guy working for Toshiba, producing a hologram of a car.

Allegedly, this technology will be used in a higher-priced version of the PS3 upon release to project gameplay into a 3D demi-screen. Whilst we think this is hellishly cool, we’re sceptical as to whether the technology will be viable.

Hmm.. I wonder how much this will cost. <!--emo&:0--><img src='http://www.natural-selection.org/forums/html/emoticons/wow.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wow.gif'><!--endemo-->

    thats a photoshop hack... any1 can tell that sony would make a controller with that many knobs and dials more erganomic with a better grip shap and possibly move the classic pause and select buttons elsewhere

    You aren't going to have to put your hands anywhere, the PS3 will be so advanced that it will play the games for you.

    out of the nes, mastersystem, megadrive(genesis), snes, N64, Dreamcast, Atari lynx, gameboy, gameboy colour, gameboy advance, gameboy advance sp, Atari Jaguar, X-box and every other pad I've ever played with the PSX pad is the <b>only</b> one that gives me severe muscle cramps in my fingers... it got so bad one time I couldn't move them ><

    Normally my fingers work fine and as you can see they've worked fine with a lot of hardware soooo it's the pads fault <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I did once think that, but from using the GameCube's joypad, dispite it's cheap look, it is far superior. The buttons are perfectly placed and it's the right size and everything. Although, the Z button (I think that's what it's called...) is a bit stupidly placed.

    You people dont understand how the power of the PS3 is going to be.
    You take a jack and Stab it into your head. Then you jack into the PS3 and play the games with your mind. The controler is only so you have something to hold. The real controler is really your skin! You push your skin to do different things! This makes the games so real that you can die IRL if in the game you fall down a pit! Then when you respawn, the PS3 brings you back to life!

What is this first one on the left here labeled "internet?"

    Sony: Whaa? Are you a stupid man? It isa internet in the port!

    mis: So you mean, you can plug a phone line into it, and play multi-player games online, like with the Dreamcast?

    Sony: Dreamcast? Ha ha, funny stupid yankee! You dishonor me with your mention of this Dreamcast. The Praystation 3 does not connect to internet, Praystation 3 CONTAIN the internet. You prugga in the computer to the port, the internet isa all there. We copy it inside machine for fast access.

    mis: Wait, so you're saying that you copied every single file on the internet into this box? That doesn't even make any sense! The internet is a constantly changing network of millions of individual machines. How does the PS3 update its so called "internet" if it has no connections to the real network?

    Sony: Thasa right. No connections. Praystation 3 get internet from outerspace.

    Sony: It run on love.

    I personally find that the GameCube controller works perfect, though I do get a slight cramp in my finger after holding down the R should button for 20 minutes during a Metroid Prime boss battle.

    I'll take the N64 controller, because half of it was never used and it was damn comfortable.

    Woah, can i ask what you've been smoking? The Xbox is already world renound and ridiculed for having the worst controller on a games console. It's too large for anyone with average sized hands and the buttons are ridiculously placed out of the way. Not to mention that due to it's size so much of it is wasted space, especially with that big logo there.

    I think <a href='http://www.penny-arcade.com/view.php3?date=2002-03-25&res=l' target='_blank'>this comic</a> sums it up pretty well.

    BY the way, I use the S-Series XBox controller. It's got all the buttons you need, none fo the bricky-ness, and none of the hand cramping oh-my-god-what-is-this-piece-of-crap-in-my-hands asstasticness about it.

    Again, by the way. I'm a fencer, my hands are pretty strong and flexable, and usually I can go a few hours with a foil before my hand starts to hurt, after a few minutes with the PS2 controller I'm looking at amputation as a viable option.
