either a nostalgia for some, or a news to some people

but for those who have always wondered, how far did Nintendo and Sony work together on developing the "Playstation"

there was enough prototypes out there but they were all just sketches

well the SNES Playstation has finally been found



Quote:
Somehow, a near-complete prototype of a standalone PlayStation system has appeared, as reported by Game Rave. They don't give any information, stating "Real updates coming very, very soon" but it's enough to look at the thing.
source

As you can see, the original Playstation top was inspired by the SNES Playstation prototype


however this is comparable with the Panasonic Q



except panasonic's intention was to make a Cube version that can be compatible as a home entertainment console that can play games


while Sony's intention was actually make games off optical disc on the SNES hardware..

anyone know when will the new rumble feature ps3 controller will arrive in canada? i cant wait to pick those bad boys up


the day i picked up the ps3 controller i felt it was cheaply made...

For those that havent pick up guitar hero 3 for ps3, it is a MUST game to have, i bought 2 faceplate and a guitar hero stand as well, looks pimp just to have a guitar sitting there to admire in the living room. But not only tat, it is a really entertaining game, worth the money IMO, not so sure about rock band when it releases tho



Anyone picked up Time Crisis 4 for ps3??? i heard some negative reviews about this one as well as it aint exactly a cheap game, $80 bux plus taxes


any CONS for this game? if so please explain

The Dual Shock won't be coming to North America until March or April 2008. I sell the Japanese version for $60 + shipping. White is available too

Skip Time Crisis. Go read some reviews.

You guys gotta keep an eye on my site! We're constantly adding products.

I know I need to do a better job of maintaining the front page of the site, so it's easy to see what all the new products are. Working on that now.

i just got UT3, and i gotta say, im somewhat pleased and dissapointed at the same time


its still Unreal Tournament, which is to say, is still a fun game, my problem is that nothing much has change since UT2004

some level designs seems to be really unbalance while utilizing the Unreal engine, some levels and polygon details surpass Gears of War while walking into interior rooms in some levels seemed to be design from the last Unreal Engine

it was kinda wierd trying to go online this morning, lol because i couldnt, i got the impression i was the first person to get this game.. hahaha but finally got online

single player is a joke.. it has a really bland storyline, no where near the GoW story telling, each "mission" is nothing but a frag fest where u are pitted with bots, basically to keep it simple, the campaign is UT3 offline with bots..... and its not a tournament

its still a fun game, but i gotta say, wether its fair to compare, its no where as good as Halo 3 or Cod4 online


but iv only played this for a good hour, i still need to learn the maps, so might like it more down the road, well at least my ps3 will finally get a good action for awhile, after finishing Uncharted under 6 hours..

its not easy to get first when u have the car set in professional mode.

gonna get a G25 tonight... GT5 is really no fun with a dual shock 3

the game is cheap anyways. and when u think of it, it already have more cars and more tracks then most of the other racing games.

So umm what exactly does "prologue" include for 4500 Yen? Is there going to be a full version soon or something?

I never understood why they release little chunks of the game at a time...

they do that for all the GTs I believe.

For a full version of GT5, it's believed to be coming out next year roughly the same time

ya i cant believe you guys shelled out money for a glorified "demo"

but then again, GT5 doesnt come out til '09 or something

Prologue used to be given for free for special promotions


i remember GT4 Prologue, u could only get a copy from Audi, Chrysler and Hyundai dealerships in the states...
