Yesterday Sony announced the PS3 would be released sometime around Spring of 2006

PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3) computer entertainment system combines state-of-the-art technologies featuring Cell, a processor jointly developed by IBM, Sony Group and Toshiba Corporation, graphics processor (RSX) co-developed by NVIDIA Corporation and SCEI, and XDR memory developed by Rambus Inc. It also adopts BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc ROM) with maximum storage capacity of 54 GB (dual layer), enabling delivery of entertainment content in full high-definition (HD) quality, under a secure environment made possiblethrough the most advanced copyright protection technology. To match the accelerating convergence of digital consumer electronics and computer technology, PS3 supports high quality display in resolution of 1080p(*) as standard, which is far superior to 720p/1080i.

Playstation 3 Technology
With an overwhelming computing power of 2 teraflops, entirely new graphical expressions that have never been seen before will become possible. In games, not only will movement of characters and objects be far more refined and realistic, but landscapes and virtual worlds can also be rendered in real-time, thereby elevating the freedom of graphics expression to levels not experienced in the past. Gamers will literally be able to dive into the realistic world seen in large screen movies and experience the excitement in real-time.

In 1994, SCEI launched the original PlayStation® (PS), followed by PlayStation®2 (PS2) in 2000 and PlayStation®Portable (PSP®) in 2004, every time introducing the latest advancement in technology and bringing innovation to interactive entertainment software creation. Over 13,000 titles have been developed by now, creating a software market that sells more than 250 million copies annually. PS3 offers backward compatibility enabling gamers to enjoy these enormous assets from PS and PS2 platforms.

With the delivery of Cell based development tools that has already begun, development of game titles as well as tools and middleware are in progress. Through collaboration with world’s leading tools and middleware companies, SCEI will offer full support to new content creation by providing developers with extensive tools and libraries that will bring out the power of the Cell processor and enable efficient software development.

Preparations are under way for launch of PS3 and new generation software in the spring of 2006.

I'll be the fucking judge of what the fuck we buy and when the fuck we buy it. And we're ALL buying the same fucking thing so that we have other grown-ups to fucking play online with. GOT IT! Now shut the fuck up and wait for the memo.

And beef with this and I'll delete your post and kick you out of the tech forum.

Use your telepathic brain waves to summon sea animals to come and rip TX to pieces, EM.

This little kid in the terminal cancer ward of the local hospital asked it as his "Make A Wish" dream. Should I tell him you're not going to do it?

Tears Jerry. Tears.

Whatever happens, DON'T BAN HIM!

That would be much too merciful for him.

Too late. He's fucking gone. What a faggot. I've reported him to his IPO.

Posted: **Fri May 20, 2005 7:56 pm**

Probably for a couple of reasons --

For starters, possibly because your retarded.

Another might be that if you associate yourself, through you're nic, with an institution of higher education, you probably shouldn't make a spelling/grammar error in every single sentence you type.

Another might be that it's generally what goes down on these boards, a concept you've failed to grasp as of yet.

Another might be that you teed yourself up by completely missing the joke of the whole situation.

Shall I continue, or are you catching on? I'm just going with the obvious ones for now, but there's plenty more, if your interested.

I was going to put quotation marks around it, but I figured I'd leave it be, and see how long it took.......not very.

Posted: **Fri May 20, 2005 11:35 pm**

Still waiting on the whales fucking bit...
...that, or dolphins jerking off.

TIA, EM.

Posted: **Sat May 21, 2005 12:46 pm**

His IPO says they'll terminate access if they get another complaint. I'm thinking about filing another one just to seal the deal. Rawk the troggs, TX Homo.

And now, fish porn...
