... but no, seriously - with Linux available, you're getting one fucker of a personal computer for the price. I can't possibly justify £600 for a games console (and yes, knowing Sony, it will be £600), but dropping that load of cash on a PC with those specs... I'd barely have to think twice.
A prospect loaded with if.

SPECULATION IS IRRELEVANT. I shall just wait and see. And steal other folks PS3s.

Really pleased we will have a delayed launch , the launch games are looking very sparse in quality. The resistance of man , I'm not really getting it looks like another generic FPS with graphics that look no more special than gears of war trailers.

My major problem is I'm not seeing a big enough leap at the moment from the 360. Wii has got it right in terms of not trying to compete(big downside is going to be over reliance on first party games as usual).


Just keep those games coming Sony and beta test like hell in the US and Japan.

Except it was anything but consistent, and slowed to a crawl in completely nonsensical places (like inside the temple).

Who's speculating?

Thirsting for a horn of ale or jug of mead,

First off, I love the thread title!

Secondly, I've been seeing more and more screenshots and movies of PS3 games and it sure looks pretty. I will definitely get one, although not until the middle of next year if I'm lucky :( .

Thirdly, the XBox360 just doesn't have many games that I want to play, so I doubt I'll get one.

Fourthly, if I want RSI, I prefer it was via a work-related injury ($$$compensation!) than via some 'clever' gaming mechanic on Nintendo's latest offering (yes, I've seen the videos).

Is Kieron Gillen still writing for them? He always made me laugh. Bitterly.

So just a review of some assorted games rather than a full hardware launch review ?
