well they could just supply each disc with a serial number that you have to submit before you can play the game then its registed to your machine id for life

That would be f**king w**k.

That would be f**king w*nk.

you do it with windows and most pc games you buy

Well it is

Remember 100% of people ARENT bothered about HD-DVD and Blu Ray players. With the PS3 you dont have a choice, with the 360 you do.

Prime example my Newphew doesnt and wont need a HD DVD player or Blu Ray. He also doesnt need Wifi, so he is getting Premium with an Extra pad and PGR3 for £299

Now compare that to the PS3 with an Extra pad and a Game. MUCH more. You might get a Hi Def player etc BUT it wouldnt be used

Lol i agree, you dont need to preach it to me but have seen people making out the xbox is cheaper as in 'more for your money' my posts point was that they are almost the same cost*. HD DVD player is now announced at £130 so i make it that the ps3 is cheaper than the xbox*

Im looking forward to it coming out as id like to see how things go. expecially if hddvd/bd takes off, imo it wont for a while yet.

*if you compare the systems with the same spec

I'll believe its out in March when I see one in a store, spend 15 mins trawling the net and you'll see theres simply loads and loads of outstanding issues with the PS3 and thats before you even start on Blu-Ray
Microsoft must be p*****g themselves at the moment
