PSP has some goodies coming!

 

[DuckThor Evil]

AFAIK it's US only for the time being...

Well we can access the US store by creating a fake account... But it's still not quarateed to work by any means. We can also access the US Xbox Live, but can't purchase anything...

hm... I thought DC Universe was to be a 360 title.. Or maybe I'm remembering wrongly.

True. The PSN does support geo-filtering although it's just not used.. Maybe for video? Dunno... Probably not. Dunno about the license acquisition either since it's using a different system.

Not bad (I am curious), but how do I play it ?

No, Sony got DC and Microsoft got Marvel. We know what happened to that...

The DC Universe Online thing is probably the only thing that would make me buy a PS3. I'd rather it be Batman Online instead, then I would really buy a PS3.

80GB, September, $399 - no real surprise at all, but sooner than I expected

Oooh that's right. It's been awhile!

 

[DrJay24]

80GB core pack $399 (same as 40GB internals). So the 40GB is dead?

Now ms is def going to drop this holiday.

$300 60 gig and $ 380 elite ?

Should be a good year for gamers , lots of people are going to be able to buy in

 

[patsu]

Probably to be marked down to clear the channel ;-)

I don't think that's a given to be honest, both console makers would prefer to maintain minimal loss on these consoles. But, this is a discussion for another thread either way.

 

[eastmen]

Why are they showing all multiplatform titles when talking about the power of the ps3 , aren't theese all avalible or will be avalible on the 360 ?

That doesn't make sense to me .

 

[AzBat]

I'm on confused on the "Core Pack". Does this mean there is still going to be a $499 SKU?

[AlNom]

That doesn't make sense to me .

I think it's more to show that 3rd party developers are more comfortable with the platform and that there is a brighter future, rather than relying on first-party or exclusive developers' comments.

Tommy McClain

Doesn't seem that way. It'll be a 40gb pack with 80gb HDD. So whatever the 40GB doesn't have, the new 80 won't either.

 

[eastmen]

Sounds like they will upgrade the hardrive in the ps3 ?
