When I left my previous company (London) in May 2012, they asked me what do you want? I jokingly said PS3 because I knew I wouldn't get it as leaving gifts are mostly £50. My manager told the CEO and CEO said is he a kid, my manager replied it's for video game programming. lol The next day my manager said let's go and went to Sainsbury with me and bought me a PS3 that was wow moment in my life. May god bless my manager :) My wife bought me a PS4. My uncle got me PS2. I have always gotten Playstation as a gift somehow, lucky me :)
I was 26, Bought My PS1 in 1995 at the age of 15, Thats really crazy how times flies, Im not even Adding when I bought my Master System in 88 and Genesis in 91, First Console ? Atari in 84.
Despite its troubled start I'll always have a special place in my heart for PS3. The jump from from SD to HD was just Jaw Dropping and Blurays looked pretty incredible too in 1080p. I had it for 9 years before i upgraded to PS4 Pro and i still miss that XMB Menu and all my Music/Pictures and Video Files :(
Lucky for me that i still enjoy the mighty ps3 nowdays. My first i bought in 2007 and it is still with me. Unfortunatly she boots UP and it shuts down, but it isnt the ylod. If i insist many times she eventualy turns on, but after i try some game she shuts down. If i listen música or watch vídeos she doesnt go down. I dont know what is. And i think the blueray drive also has some problem. Anyway, when that start to happen, i was just to much envolved with the system, because of my multimédia contente, and the online features and great games. I have to bought another one, but this time arround, i wanted a trully imaculate console condition. Since 2007 till nowdays my phat ps3 is working extremely fine and i bought another one in 2013 wich is also hooked to my LCD HD TV. The same happen with my original 2005 360. Red ring. Just in 2011 i bought the slim 250gb. I have 2 with kinect. Also hooked UP to my TV. Working like New and the fans for all system including my ps2s, dreamcasts etc are very clean and make no noise at all. That is because when you like your stuff and it costs you money and time, you should take much care of it, if you want to play games, forever.
The ps3 was worth every penny, I have happy memories from when the launch day arrived, it was a very exciting time, before all this social media was here, getting it home, setting it up, and trying all the the various things that it could do, it played cds dvds bluray, ps1 ps2, and super audio cds, it was a very Underestimated system.
@@Bugsitogamer yep me too, sometimes i feel like I'm just trash with my money because if I really like a game I bought digitally, I go into ebay and order a physical copy as well.
@StrawHat Luffy Lack of players isn't indicative of quality. So I don't see what yous issue was with PS3's online. I still go online on mine from time to time with no major issues.

The Cell processor was originally for the PlayStation 4. As stated in the statement at 0:57. And I remember Sony saying the chipset for the PS3 was already developed before the Cell announcement. So they abandoned the original chipset for the PS3 and implemented the Cell chipset instead.
Leader X it makes sense. Cell was way ahead of its time , only now developers are starting to get a hold of heterogeneous computing. I always wondered if Sony could bring that chip out of retirement for certain tasks. Apparently it has a theoretical peak of 1 teraflop , which was amazing for 2005 and still Pretty capable for things like audio/video processing and also certain particle/physics calculations. I guess Sony somehow used that knowledge with the tempest engine , which sort or acts like a cell SPE , utilising a GPU compute unit instead.
@@GrayFoxGamingHD The problem with the Cell processor is that it was too expensive to be used in most commercial products, including game consoles. I'm surprised Sony didn't release some laptops or PCs with the Cell processor. That's where it would have been best used in the commercial sector.
That was pretty ambitious of them, although it’s a shame that its potential wasn’t fully utilized in PS3; partitioned memory and an underpowered GPU really bottlenecked an almost perfect gaming device.
Cell processor was an engineering masterpiece. Problem is that it was released too early and developers only started to fully appreciate it and understand how to deal with it at the end of 7th generation. It would have been so nice to see a third option beside Intel and AMD.

3:19 I remember a modern military game called 'Avalon' was the first 'next gen' game announced for the 7th gen. I didn't hear anything more about that title.
When you say 70 years from now, if you’re talking about the PS9, it’ll probably more than likely come a bit sooner than that. Every console comes on avg. 7 years. So we could expect to see it in 2048 2020 - PS5 2027 - PS6 2034 - PS7 2041 - PS8 2048 - PS9
anddo Well, I won’t deny it. But realistically, you just gotta look at how well it sells. If the PS5 sells like hot cakes like the PS4 did, it’ll most likely come out in 2027. If it doesn’t, then we could expect it to arrive around 2026.

Ryan i love your passion for ps3, I click on your ps3 video at speed of light xD but still I am excited to see more videos down the road on ps3, its my most favourite gaming console of all time so its fascinating to see this kinda stuff
Funny, watching your video emerged some old feelings. I remember getting the 1st gen PS3, staring at the box before opening and unboxing the PS3. I also remember on the first week being disappointed how much it was on par (being light on the matter) with a much more affordable Xbox 360. Couldn’t find Blu-Ray movies to buy or rent and not to mention the situation with ports. And that’s how the relationship started to fade. It had to me the same feel of unboxing a MacBook or something like that without the productivity part, it was just a flawed movie/game box (OtherOS sucked without full GPU acceleration).
@@gokuultrainstinct908 omg I hate seeing this. What's even the point of saying this? The only similarity is the frame, and, like, the top end of the frame. Everything else about it is unique and distinct. Hate all you ps and xbox fanboys spitting substanceless and retarding nonsense
@Arnaldo Gonzalez what about it is similar? The slight beefier look? It's still supposed to be smaller than the xbox. People seem to be buying into some weird visual illusion their brains are tricking them with.
coincidentally, i was thinking about this just a few days ago, wanting to learn about this era of leaks and rumors. was hoping you’d make a video one day, and well, that didn’t take long. thank you for doing so.
And wouldn’t you know it, Sony has just revealed their official PS5 Controller that’s set to be a major departure of the other four generations and being what they were trying to do with the Boomerang Controller al those years ago! Talk about perfect timing.
Back before the PS4 was released, I predicted that remote play would be a big focus, and every game would work. I also speculated that theyd open it up to mobiles and PCs and I was laughed out of every forum I said it on.
8:55 - Man! If ONLY that ended up being more true. Had it had been $400 while it still had true compatibility with disc-based PS2 games, the PS3 would’ve done better in its first year. Or at least on par to the Xbox 360 and the Wii during their first years out in the market. 12:09 - It’s pronounced “ZEAL-OTS,” not “Zea-ots”.
I know I'm a year late but when I was growing up as a almost 9 year old kid seeing the PS3 blew me away in 2006. My family was a PlayStation kind of family since my dad had the original fat PS1 that would overheat in 6 hours he told me. Then we got the fat PS2 in 2001? Or 2003 which I still have today. Man going to Circuit City all the time and just playing the demo PS3 Motorstorm game all the time just always blew me away before the console was launched. But talking about the PS3 for a minute, I remember seeing it in the catalogs in November 2006 and showing my parents it, we didn't get it on launch day but we got it I think a few days or a week after launch. From what my mom has told me is that we went down to the BX store at the Air Force Base and just to see if they had any, they actually did and I think my parents spent like $800? We got the 60GB, with another PS3 controller, Resistance Fall of Man and Motorstorm. It was just amazing having a PS3 finally, we hardly got to play it at first cause we didn't really have any "kid friendly" games other than Motorstorm and the rule was at the time between me and my sister if we had any friends over and we we're on it we had to get off. I was the only friend who had a PS3 until 2011, man I was given so much crap and shit in middle school because everyone had a 360 and I had a PS3 but I didn't care really cause I loved the PS3. As the years went by after the terrible PS3 launch and how the games looked, they only got better as the years went on and quite a lot of those games won Game of the Year.
Fairly new subscriber and dude I love your videos, especially the PS3 videos. That was such a golden era to grow up in as a teenager.. very much so miss those days!
minor note: "hardware-based" is still emulation, just hardware-based emulation. It may use the same EE chip that the PS2 used but there's still a lot of other hardware/software integration needed to make it all work within the PS3.
There were three different levels to this, and I would certainly call the first one actually native running. The extra path of the render through the PS3 parts can not really be considered part of the emulating. It was only with the second generation systems that it was partially emulated. And it was actually the EE that was removed. The GS was the more complicating factor remaining. The third ones had no hardware support at all, and very low compatibility because of it.
Pretty good vid. One problem I have, though, is that Sony did not try to pass off those vids as actual gameplay. Their wording before they showed it at E3 was that these were target renders of what they hoped the PS3 could produce. I'd like to see links to where PR tried to say they were actual gameplay, cause you don't show that in your vid. And one has to remember that this was a time when Sony was scrambling for a GPU, because their Cell as both CPU and GPU didn't work out. Sony was upset because they felt Nvidia underdelivered on the RSX, and haven't worked with them since for a PS system. It'll also be interesting if in a few years time we start getting a bunch of vids talking about what MS did this gen to cover up the power difference between the PS4 and XBO, create fake playable demos running on more powerful HW than the actual XBO. Even taking the fake Forza demo on national TV, on Jimmy Fallon, and let him play it. Not talking about you specifically, since you mainly do PS stuff, but something tells me DF aren't going to devote a long video to that like they did the PS3 target vids. MS pays them too much for that.
Love this idea. Doing the exact same thing but for PS2, I have hundreds of news pages saved from a whole bunch of defunct websites. If you ever need links, I have a few saved that have working news archive sections that go as far back as 1996? It's amazing what you can find and it becomes so addictive. I managed to find the original video files for Dynasty Warrioirs and Tekken Tag from 1999 that still have working downloads! Or rumours from 1996 about what the PS2 is going to be lol
The over heating rumor was right and wrong. The all black 20gb model has a faulty fan that does not speed up when the system in under a heavy load in some games. But most of the 60 and 80gb models worked just fine. I say most because there were a few that the fan speed control would fail and Red Ring of Death.
Man I remember those days. I was one of those blind Playstation fanboys that kept defending the indefensible lol Still, despite Sony getting my unearned loyalty, sticking with them payed off eventually. I clearly remember Sony finally taking the PS3's poor reception seriously around 2009-2010. They slashed the PS2 chipset to release the cheaper and sleaker PS3 Slim along with a new PS3 logo. And from that point on they would push wave after wave of high quality games. A trend they still stick by to this day. In retrospect it's really neat to step back and notice how the competition between Sony, MS and Nintendo brought out the best in them. The 7th gen was a fun ride.
The Blu-ray diode is still an issue in the PS3, considering mine stopped working (after less than a decade, and probably way less runtime). - I still don't know if it like burned or if it's just dirty, but I have yet to find out...
I took a Computer Tech course in Collage and learned how to clean, repair, and build computers. I can even repair consoles if the CPU isn't burned out. Re-balling a CPU requires a special jig and solder machine that cost $2,000. And there is a 50/50 chance that the CPU didn't get fried. Just buy another console. It's cheaper then the repair.
I remember IGN forums saying that the "machine" would run games at "1080p 120fps" lol. Don't expect much for this gen, 4K, 60fps, all bullshit. It's either 4K or 60fps. Also the PS5 backwards compatibility is trash, games aren't even working properly yet. And their major concern? SSD, something that's on the PC market for almost a decade.
Ps4 pro can already do checkboarded 4k with 30 fps. Ps4 was limited by the weak cpu, so ps5 can do 4k 60 fps. The cpu, gpu, ssd, and ram jump are massive
@@aliefr2984 remember the massive jump from 6th to 7th gen? It's always the same fucking thing, it's gonna do this, it's gonna do that, it's the most powerful in the world etc etc. I will start saving money for a powerful PC. I'm done with consoles.

Long live PlayStation Triple! Recently picked up a modded super slim, after ten years I forgot how damn unique & special PS3 is. Always leaned Xbox but Sony always has my mad respect (aside from killing the vita) PS3 in my top 5.
Those PS2 commercials changed the gaming landscape in my opinion. Finally gamers were treated as adults and the idiosyncratic nature of the commercials really struck a core with gaming audiences.
Watch Digital Foundry, their PS5 videos are AMAZING and so full of details, and they break it down for people like me. PS5 gonna be a game changer literally
Ugh, I remember those E3 trailers of Motorstorm and Final Fantasy XIII. Not many people talk about how Sony flat out lied to the fans. And I remember Phil Harrison saying how he was flattered the was because fans made comparison videos of Sony's pre-rendered trailers to actual gameplay. He was saying how similar they looked. I was like 'WHAT!? The gameplay video looks way worse!' And don't even get me started with FFXIII. I've never really trusted Sony ever since.
The PS3 recording is a bit reflected in some games supporting remote play I suppose. Since the video encoding was being done for that anyway, so also recording that would be the easy part. Though, I guess maybe those early 60 or even 20GB made it seem a detrimental waste of space. It could also be the addition of the dedicated GPU was another issue as the encoding would be made back an SPU.
Companies must determine what it is the consumer will want 5+ years down the road or risk becoming irrelevant when they are not prepared for changing demand.
I had had PS1 and PS2. I was hovering between PS3 and 360 as neither had many games that appealed initially. Then Sony announced The Last Guardian. I bought a PS3 the next day. Never regretted it even though Last Guardian never appeared on PS3. It had much better game selection than 360.
I'm honestly not so sure the real-time claims were a lie. Everyone always says that but if you look at Killzone 2 side-by-side with the trailer, visually it looks extremely similar. The main difference is that it was clearly a scripted sequence, not actual gameplay.

@@gokuultrainstinct908 omg I hate seeing this. What's even the point of saying this? The only similarity is the frame, and, like, the top end of the frame. Everything else about it is unique and distinct.
Hate all you ps and xbox fanboys spitting substanceless and retarding nonsense
@@gokuultrainstinct908
People are really saying this bc its beefier and white....I had no idea Microsoft owned the color white.
@Arnaldo Gonzalez what about it is similar? The slight beefier look? It's still supposed to be smaller than the xbox. People seem to be buying into some weird visual illusion their brains are tricking them with.
coincidentally, i was thinking about this just a few days ago, wanting to learn about this era of leaks and rumors. was hoping you’d make a video one day, and well, that didn’t take long. thank you for doing so.
This video deserves to blow up. So much work and research was put into this.
PS3 was truly the all in one entertainment system
Series/Movies/Games etc all in one box and could store them all on the HDD.
I wish PS4 was like that. That was one if my favorite things about PS3, besides PS1+2 backwards compatibility ofcourse.
@@bboy7531 The last console to play every generation of games for Sony
The cell processor was powerful but it was complex to develop games for.
It sucks that the PlayStation 3's life is coming to an end after all the memories I have had with the console😢
That been dead
@@king96300 I mean people are still on playing all the old cod games and gta 5 online
I love the old PS3 logo so much. That Spider-Man font looked sleek and badass.
Some of this stuff sounds very familiar!
Whaaaat I didnt know there was leaks on the PS3!!
now this was a brilliant concept for a TH-cam video. You're the only gaming channel I know of that actually puts effort into their content
And wouldn’t you know it, Sony has just revealed their official PS5 Controller that’s set to be a major departure of the other four generations and being what they were trying to do with the Boomerang Controller al those years ago! Talk about perfect timing.
I bought a 360 in 2006 because of budget, I was in high school. But by 2010-2013 I was all PS3. I loved that console so much.
Do another for PlayStation 2!
Would be really interesting to watch
Back before the PS4 was released, I predicted that remote play would be a big focus, and every game would work. I also speculated that theyd open it up to mobiles and PCs and I was laughed out of every forum I said it on.
I would have believed you friend
8:55 - Man! If ONLY that ended up being more true. Had it had been $400 while it still had true compatibility with disc-based PS2 games, the PS3 would’ve done better in its first year. Or at least on par to the Xbox 360 and the Wii during their first years out in the market.
12:09 - It’s pronounced “ZEAL-OTS,” not “Zea-ots”.
0:58 Yo that article was posted on my 1st birthday wow lol
Damn
this is a good example of information and how rumors spread ryan is really underrated 👍
I know I'm a year late but when I was growing up as a almost 9 year old kid seeing the PS3 blew me away in 2006. My family was a PlayStation kind of family since my dad had the original fat PS1 that would overheat in 6 hours he told me. Then we got the fat PS2 in 2001? Or 2003 which I still have today. Man going to Circuit City all the time and just playing the demo PS3 Motorstorm game all the time just always blew me away before the console was launched. But talking about the PS3 for a minute, I remember seeing it in the catalogs in November 2006 and showing my parents it, we didn't get it on launch day but we got it I think a few days or a week after launch. From what my mom has told me is that we went down to the BX store at the Air Force Base and just to see if they had any, they actually did and I think my parents spent like $800? We got the 60GB, with another PS3 controller, Resistance Fall of Man and Motorstorm. It was just amazing having a PS3 finally, we hardly got to play it at first cause we didn't really have any "kid friendly" games other than Motorstorm and the rule was at the time between me and my sister if we had any friends over and we we're on it we had to get off. I was the only friend who had a PS3 until 2011, man I was given so much crap and shit in middle school because everyone had a 360 and I had a PS3 but I didn't care really cause I loved the PS3. As the years went by after the terrible PS3 launch and how the games looked, they only got better as the years went on and quite a lot of those games won Game of the Year.
such a iconic console .PS3 i never forget you
Fairly new subscriber and dude I love your videos, especially the PS3 videos. That was such a golden era to grow up in as a teenager.. very much so miss those days!
Enjoyed this, I was excited when I got my PS3 after it got delayed in the UK
minor note: "hardware-based" is still emulation, just hardware-based emulation. It may use the same EE chip that the PS2 used but there's still a lot of other hardware/software integration needed to make it all work within the PS3.
There were three different levels to this, and I would certainly call the first one actually native running. The extra path of the render through the PS3 parts can not really be considered part of the emulating.
It was only with the second generation systems that it was partially emulated. And it was actually the EE that was removed. The GS was the more complicating factor remaining.
The third ones had no hardware support at all, and very low compatibility because of it.
Pretty good vid. One problem I have, though, is that Sony did not try to pass off those vids as actual gameplay. Their wording before they showed it at E3 was that these were target renders of what they hoped the PS3 could produce. I'd like to see links to where PR tried to say they were actual gameplay, cause you don't show that in your vid. And one has to remember that this was a time when Sony was scrambling for a GPU, because their Cell as both CPU and GPU didn't work out. Sony was upset because they felt Nvidia underdelivered on the RSX, and haven't worked with them since for a PS system.
It'll also be interesting if in a few years time we start getting a bunch of vids talking about what MS did this gen to cover up the power difference between the PS4 and XBO, create fake playable demos running on more powerful HW than the actual XBO. Even taking the fake Forza demo on national TV, on Jimmy Fallon, and let him play it. Not talking about you specifically, since you mainly do PS stuff, but something tells me DF aren't going to devote a long video to that like they did the PS3 target vids. MS pays them too much for that.
Love this idea. Doing the exact same thing but for PS2, I have hundreds of news pages saved from a whole bunch of defunct websites. If you ever need links, I have a few saved that have working news archive sections that go as far back as 1996?
It's amazing what you can find and it becomes so addictive. I managed to find the original video files for Dynasty Warrioirs and Tekken Tag from 1999 that still have working downloads! Or rumours from 1996 about what the PS2 is going to be lol
The over heating rumor was right and wrong. The all black 20gb model has a faulty fan that does not speed up when the system in under a heavy load in some games. But most of the 60 and 80gb models worked just fine. I say most because there were a few that the fan speed control would fail and Red Ring of Death.
Blu Ray disc was mentioned in 2003 WOW IM SUPRISED
My favorite was when they said PS3 would run games at 120fps
Man I remember those days. I was one of those blind Playstation fanboys that kept defending the indefensible lol
Still, despite Sony getting my unearned loyalty, sticking with them payed off eventually. I clearly remember Sony finally taking the PS3's poor reception seriously around 2009-2010. They slashed the PS2 chipset to release the cheaper and sleaker PS3 Slim along with a new PS3 logo. And from that point on they would push wave after wave of high quality games. A trend they still stick by to this day.
In retrospect it's really neat to step back and notice how the competition between Sony, MS and Nintendo brought out the best in them.
The 7th gen was a fun ride.
My favorite console
Mine too
I have a PS4 Pro but the PS3 is still epic.
The Blu-ray diode is still an issue in the PS3, considering mine stopped working (after less than a decade, and probably way less runtime). - I still don't know if it like burned or if it's just dirty, but I have yet to find out...
I took a Computer Tech course in Collage and learned how to clean, repair, and build computers. I can even repair consoles if the CPU isn't burned out. Re-balling a CPU requires a special jig and solder machine that cost $2,000. And there is a 50/50 chance that the CPU didn't get fried. Just buy another console. It's cheaper then the repair.
A quote from ‘Michael Hunt’? Level headed response incoming! 😀
Very very good information
Ahhh memories. Resistance I miss that game
TheZelda360 it was and still is my go to game for offline splitscreen battle with my friend
Mystic never left 2005
I remember IGN forums saying that the "machine" would run games at "1080p 120fps" lol. Don't expect much for this gen, 4K, 60fps, all bullshit. It's either 4K or 60fps. Also the PS5 backwards compatibility is trash, games aren't even working properly yet. And their major concern? SSD, something that's on the PC market for almost a decade.
Ps4 pro can already do checkboarded 4k with 30 fps. Ps4 was limited by the weak cpu, so ps5 can do 4k 60 fps. The cpu, gpu, ssd, and ram jump are massive
Dude you already have ps5?? How you know ps5 backwards compatibility is trash??
@@aliefr2984 remember the massive jump from 6th to 7th gen? It's always the same fucking thing, it's gonna do this, it's gonna do that, it's the most powerful in the world etc etc. I will start saving money for a powerful PC. I'm done with consoles.
@@GunsNGames1 ps3 was stronger than same generation pc even in 2x cost
@@GunsNGames1 then don't buy one.
Problem solved😉😉
Dude, i just want to say. I really do love your content. It is always so digestible, so laylow and genuine. It is not over the top proffesional all the time (like for example kinda funny, who i also adore) but at the same time it is not unproffesional. Like the edits and footage you drop into your content. As a Ps fan I must say i love your altitude towards other companies like Microsoft and Ninendo aswell. Keep up the good work dude. Hope u achieve whatever it is you want in life !
I remember camping in line and having to stomp a kid out after stabbing his dad to get my hands on a PS3. Good times.
prod1192 off course you did
Long live PlayStation Triple! Recently picked up a modded super slim, after ten years I forgot how damn unique & special PS3 is.
Always leaned Xbox but Sony always has my mad respect (aside from killing the vita) PS3 in my top 5.
THE best Was the Campaings Comercials about PS3 THIS IS LIVING !! amazing in EUROPE
Guilty pleasure is liking the boomerang design for the ps3 controller
All I remember is that the PS3 came out and I bought it, enjoyed playing it and loved it.
Still kicks ass this console
Great video broskii
Those PS2 commercials changed the gaming landscape in my opinion. Finally gamers were treated as adults and the idiosyncratic nature of the commercials really struck a core with gaming audiences.
Uh, that began with PS1. How old are you?
Who else remembers the FF7 tech demo around this time period?
Yeah, it was from 2005.
+Mystic Very good documentary! I actually have enjoyed watching your documentaries. But especially the ones of PlayStation 3!!!
great video. takes me back to those days that i still remember to this day.
Watch Digital Foundry, their PS5 videos are AMAZING and so full of details, and they break it down for people like me. PS5 gonna be a game changer literally
Still have my launch PS3 and it’s still running good.... but I do miss Warhawk
PS3 2006 model will forever be my favorite console, it did everything
The 2007 80gb model is much better in my opinion.
PS3 was worth it considering the years and games...
Nobody gonna talk about it being 2:15 am in the background?
Love your videos Ryan.... keep up the great work man!!!
I am an xbox fan but I really enjoy your unique content. keep it up ryan.
Ugh, I remember those E3 trailers of Motorstorm and Final Fantasy XIII. Not many people talk about how Sony flat out lied to the fans. And I remember Phil Harrison saying how he was flattered the was because fans made comparison videos of Sony's pre-rendered trailers to actual gameplay. He was saying how similar they looked. I was like 'WHAT!? The gameplay video looks way worse!' And don't even get me started with FFXIII. I've never really trusted Sony ever since.
What are the music you use. Looked in the description but only names of artists not songs
This is a great video idea. Excited to finish this.
I see one comment, while TH-cam is saying 3 comments and 1 view.
The PS3 recording is a bit reflected in some games supporting remote play I suppose. Since the video encoding was being done for that anyway, so also recording that would be the easy part. Though, I guess maybe those early 60 or even 20GB made it seem a detrimental waste of space.
It could also be the addition of the dedicated GPU was another issue as the encoding would be made back an SPU.
Lighting Returns on ps3 could save screenshots... I believe that PlayStation 3 had/have the technology to record gameplay
Mark 20 so did modern warfare 3
GT6 had the "gameplay recording and upload" written on the back of the case, although I never figured out how to use it.
@@Xsonic378X so, that's pretty much a fuction that ps3 had
Companies must determine what it is the consumer will want 5+ years down the road or risk becoming irrelevant when they are not prepared for changing demand.
Can we get Detective Ryan to find out what the PS5 looks like?
Also, great video. Full of interesting information. Didn't even know half of it.
They deleted the ps3 from the playstation website :(
Sony should make a joke on April 1st were they act like they’re going to make a boomerang controller for ps5
I had had PS1 and PS2. I was hovering between PS3 and 360 as neither had many games that appealed initially. Then Sony announced The Last Guardian. I bought a PS3 the next day. Never regretted it even though Last Guardian never appeared on PS3. It had much better game selection than 360.
Funny. Seeing the power and capabilities of the PS3 Ken Kutaragi was right.
I have heard that ps5 is actually like switch, it has 10.3 only when is docked and the other mode is 1080p. That would be very cool to see.
it would just be Sony copying Nintendo again
I'm honestly not so sure the real-time claims were a lie. Everyone always says that but if you look at Killzone 2 side-by-side with the trailer, visually it looks extremely similar. The main difference is that it was clearly a scripted sequence, not actual gameplay.
Sony just released ps5 controller pictures 😍
The commercials were the best part of ps3. No one can get as weird as Asians, the commercials gave us a taste of that.
I HAVE THE DOCUMENTS your pfp too lol
13:53 what song was playing in the background?
Now we just need one for PSP, and PS2 :D
I was such an idiot with the ps4. Bought it at launch after getting credit card solely for it at 18 years old.
I waited two years to get my PS4.
