    The PS3 will support up to 7 bluetooth wireless controllers, have Blu-Ray capabilities which means up to 25 GB of disc space, meaning more in the games and more technology incorperated into those games (hence the steep price of both the games and system) The basic system will come with a 20 GB harddrive, while the premium package will come with a 60 GB harddrive. The memory and ram are as follows: 256MB XDR main RAM, 256 GDDR3 VRAM. The PS3 will dominate all systems at this time. Granted Microsoft is ahead of the next gen console race, but the PS3, at close to $600 for a premium package, is the equivilant to a high-end PC (and cheaper than an Alienware PC) For more information on the PS3, go here: http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/specs.html

    No, I am not a whore for the PS3, but I do build computers and when I saw this, my jaw dropped. The RAM alone is intense.

    From Wikipedia.org:
    The Blu-ray Disc (BD) is a optical disc format designed for high-density storage of high-definition video and data.

    The name Blu-ray is derived from the blue-violet laser it uses to read and write to the disc. A Blu-ray Disc can store substantially more data than a DVD, because of the shorter wavelength (405 nm) of the blue-violet laser (DVDs use a 650-nm-wavelength red laser and CDs use an infrared 780 nm laser), which allows more information to be stored digitally in the same amount of space. In comparison to HD DVD, which also uses a blue laser, Blu-ray has more information capacity per layer (currently 25GB, but test media is up to 200GB). Sony has released 50GB recordable BDs and will soon be releasing 50GB BD media discs.[1] In August 2006, TDK developed a Blu-ray disk with a 200GB capacity.[2]

    Blu-ray is an current unsupported industry standard which hasn't proven its self in the market. It will have to compete w/ HD DVD which is launching a triple layer disc for like 90gb capabilities... the only person pushing Blue-ray is Sony. I see this turning into the same shit the PSP media has.

    And if your buying a game for media purposes other then just gaming you need to buy Xbox b/c w/ the upcoming launch of Vista; Xbox will be unleashing its capabilities w/ the home entertainment market.

    for one, why the fuck would u want 7 controllers on one game system, if u have that many friends that can play all at once u are a loser. and how can u see seven people at once on a tv? thats just dumb.... and even with the blu ray disc the ps3 and 360 still look the same, i mean damn, u cant really get better than they are now, the next thing in line will be real life... jesus, the ps3 is a fuckin joke and a waste of time, and seeing how the american vp of sony switched positions the playstation is done, this will be the last one...
