Important Brand New Sony Psp Value Pack Playstation Portable Information

• I like proposal 1. This is a fairly detailed article, and trimmed down headings don't look as nice. "Operating system" encompasses all driver features and non-game software. --gatoatigrado 21:00, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

category:linux based devices

Is the PS3 OS Linux? I know that Yellow Dog Linux is an optional piece of software that end users can install on their PS3s, but if that is only the case then category:linux based devices would not be accurate. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 09:35, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

PS3 Pre-order Tracking Sites? Availability?

There's a couple of sites I've been using that are tracking PS3 pre-order status, news and other info - would this fit on this page?

for example: ps3finder.com ps3grabber.com ps3preorders.com

There also hasn't really been anything said about availability (Gamestop/EBgames announcing that all pre-orders were filled, etc) or which retailers are carrying the system. Just a thought.

Blu-ray quality on the Playstation 3

Does anybody know how good the Blu-ray player will be on the Playstation 3? If a Blu-ray player is selling for $999.99, then how could you sell the PS3 for $500 (or $600 for the 60GB) and also have the gaming features..just doesn't make sense to me at all.

games section

would it look better to put the launch games in the divided other major titles section and use an asterisk? It may avoid multiple listing. --24.7.86.143 16:35, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Rework the "Overall" section

What if we combined the price table and the features table with a single table outlining "what'll be in the retail box" for the two different trims? The price by region could be immediately after that. I think that would be more palatable for the casual viewer perhaps making their mind on what they want to get.

Clarification of differences between $500 and $600 units

According to IGN's coverage of Gamer's Day 2006, "It was stressed that the only major differences between the two are hard drive space and the compact flash memory slot." Has something changed since E3 when the original differences of hard drive space, WiFi, SD, Memory Stick Duo, and Compact Flash slots were announced? Or has IGN got their information wrong? - ZakuSage 01:35, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Blu-Ray-Drive cover is black on white & silver models?

Does anyone know if the white / silver consoles in the photos are the final colour scheme? The black fronted Blu-Ray-drives look totally out of place. 87.240.133.252 10:42, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

• It's silver, you can clearly see the reflection of part of the card reader compartment in the picture. --Jack Zhang 04:41, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Stop the vandalism; Cease the fan-boyism

This one goes for all 3 sides of this case. As of Gamer's Day 2006, There can no longer be any speculation of rediculously priced software (ala, rumors of $70-80 games or Meriryll Lynch projections of $99.99 Games), bogus release dates, bogus launch title list, false speculation into the online system, or any other part of the PS3's details.

So lets end the Sony bashing, lets end the Sony hyping, and just wait until November 17th. Deal?

Sony's next gen fact sheet

Shouldn't the fact sheet with false info, that might cause a lawsuit from Microsoft and Nintendo. Also here's a link if anyone needs one. http://ps3.qj.net/lawsuit-season-2-nintendo-looking-into-suing-sony-too-/pg/49/aid/70395#commentsSuperway25 02:08, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

terrible comment, cannot even find rumors

"The Playstation 3's operating system uses 1 SPE and 196 MB of system memory during gameplay."

I can't even find a rumor about this. The poster said it was said by an "anonymous Activision developer," and subsequently removed the citation needed note. I can't find anything about it using Google, Yahoo search, or Windows Live search. The concept is outrageous and, as of now, completely unsubstantiated. --gatoatigrado 02:27, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

Technically, these details qualify as "rumor," but for the reasons given below I think they're pretty plausible

Next day street value

i've heard that street value (ebay and such) for the ps3 for the day after it comes out is going to be $5,000 and up much like the 360 was, i've also heard that the wii will go to $3,000 because of limited supplies in the US, can anyone confirm or shoot this down? Cubanaso 21:03, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

About the nintendo Wii thing, this is false. As Nintendo has constantly said that there will be enough Wii's for the pre-orders AND enough to just walk in and grab one Zabrak 05:27, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Quantatity available to Amazon.com at shipment?

Does anyone know how many units that Amazon.com is expected to have on the release date of November 19, 2006? Midessa 22:18, 25 October 2006 (UTC)10/25/2006

Is the PS3 capable to use Windows Vista?

Hi everyone. I got a question about the PS3. I read in a magazine that the PS3 will include Linux and, because of the Cell processor, the Sony console was going to be capable of using Windows Vista. Is this really possible? Can the PS3 support vista and work correctly? And another question: I read that the PS3 uses 256 XDR Ram memory. Is it possible to cange the RAM memory (for having more power)and, where can I get the XDR Ram memory systems? What´s the difference between XDR RAM and DDR RAM?

STOP DELETING OBLIVION

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion is a confirmed launch title, so please stop deleting it. Amish Gramish 10:34, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Custom models of the PS3?

I heard that Sony is making custom models of the PS3 only for valued clients (u know, exclusive people)Is this true?

*****I found the best info you will possibly read on the Playstation 3, ever.*****

Right here people, you can thank me later. - http://ps3.ign.com/articles/740/740601p1.html Zabrak 05:25, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

Wow this page is chalk-full of PS3 information. Yes it focuses on the XMB but it also reveals HUGE info about the PLAYSTATION 3. If you read the article then you would know this, dude. Zabrak 03:20, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Sony sells rain checks to people of Japan

I got rid of the ENTIRE Criticism paragraph.

Look people every thing comes with it's own fair share of criticism. I mean my god I can name off a 1,000 things that are criticized. So unless YOU decide to add a "Criticism" paragraph to my HUGE list of things that I wrote last night that are worth mentioning of beeing criticized. Then this article STAYS. IS that understood?

Launch Date Shortage

There has been a lot of discussion about the a shortage in the supply of the PS3's on its launching date of 11/17. I saw this posted on the Google Maps Mania Blog - www.ps3seeker.com. It's a Google Maps mash-up of locations where the PS3 will be sold on opening dates, and also marks all of the midnight launch locations. Seems like it would be a useful tool for those trying to get their hands on a PS3.

Some suggested improvements to the article

I have two suggested improvements to the article. The first is where it says:

" The PlayStation 3, unlike the PlayStation and PlayStation 2 systems, is based on open and publicly available application programming interfaces. The PlayStation 3 development kit system distributed by Sony was recently praised by IGN as having "distinct lack of noise and heat coming from the system" . Despite earlier rumours of programming being difficult... "

What the heck is that bold sentence doing there? We have two sentences describing the open APIs and standards used by the PS3 and we'll slip in some stupid gaming site's comments about how quiet and cool it runs?

Secondly where it says:

" In response to Microsoft's successful Xbox Live network, Sony announced a unified online service for the Pl "

The idea that the PS3's online capabilities exceeding the PS2s is in response to Xbox live is purely speculative. It'd be like saying "after having conniptions over the original Xbox all being equipped with a
