wasnt sure where to post ..so move if need be >> clicky
It will never be as fast/fluid as an actual console with it working over the net, don't think consoles have anything to worry about
Would also work out so expensive, montly subscription fees and the cost of renting/buying games :S

Thats what I was thinking, who would pay £10 a month to use that service when you can buy a console that could end up lasting for years without any further cost (except games obviously)

comment #7 does it for me lol

Its nothing new, just basically a thin client.

 

The processing power needed by the server would be crazy never mind the more obvious pitiful's such as not working if there's no internet connection and so on.

Won't work, It's a nice idea but it just won't take off.
nice concept, but i cant see sony, microsoft or nintendo shitting bricks tbh

£120 a year? No thanks.

 

I've had my PS3 for years now so it's already better value. I don't fancy paying every month until my 30's/40's/50's*

 

* Whenever I get sick of playing games.

 

Plus, most homes have wireless internet/several computers using the web, so others on the home network would be p*ssed off with the slower connection speeds.

Just read about this in the news

 

At £120 per year before you think about renting, its a bit steap.. especially considering the price of an X-Box these days!

 

In related news, I've recently seen some "Wii" style controllers for the PS3 and a subscription fee for PSN is still being decided.. not that I wouldn't pay of course :)

The PS3 controllers can already be used similar to the wii if you so wish. In GTA for example when riding a bike if you lean the controller backwards you will do a wheelie.

Not sure if everyone would be happy paying for PSN after its been free for so long

Yeah but that's just for little bits and bobs and it only works for little things in most games,in some games it does nothing.

 

The new motion controller is basically a wii controller with nunchuck, only a LOT more precise

I heard that all the PS3 controllers had motion sensors in them when the console came out.
Yeah they do, SIXAXIS the system is called but it has very limited use. YOu can use it a 'la mario kart style to steer cars in some games like F1:CE and motorstorm, and it has limited use in games like killzone 2, but for the most part its a bit of a gimmicky waste of time. The new motion controller though will allow you to play proper games like the wii does,where your arms move as they would if you were really having a swordfight or whatever
