No Wifi Controller.
No HDMI Out.
No Rumble Feature.
No Wifi Network.
PS3 is larger than original Xbox.
Behold the PS3: the worst decisions made by industry hardware providers in the past 15 years conveniently amalgamated in a single console:

Empires can only crumble from within. Add Sony to the list...they just fucked themselves and they deserve it, arrogant bastards. Last years E3 was pure arrogance on their part....and now they reap what they sow.

But at the price sony is selling it, you'd think it would have those features.

Wifi controller? Ok kind of sucks considering the other two have them standard. Uh, but on second thought, fuck batteries.
HDMI? Really, fuck HD anyways.
Rumble? I have never liked rumble, frankly the only reason I dislike the 64 at all (and I love it to death) is because they brought up this rumble shit to the mainstream where sony decided it was some kind of shit and thus making millions of kids think it is some kind of shit just because it was packaged into all the controllers after the fact. I'll tell you what it is, shit sux, sage.
Wifi Network? Okay, kind of sucks I guess, if you've got a wifi router, I don't, an ethernet cable is fine by me.
Xbox size? Yeah that does suck.
There are way more important and numerous reasons as to why the system will be god awful though. These points are really lesser in shittiness and kind of makes me believe it is why they talked about them instead of the stuff that really makes it look horrible as a games machine.

There is no such thing as a PS3 WiFi controller. The controllers are Bluetooth, and wireless controllers come on both versions.

Why do people go on and on and on and on about Playstation/Nintendo being in the gutter/going bankrupt/failing hard when they're doing really well?
I think your personal agenda against whatever it is that you dislike needs to stop, fucking no-life faggots.
TL;DR: Get a life, faggots.

Are you aware that you are currently browsing FOURCHAN?
Sony is not doing well, at a projected production cost of 900-1200 dollars a unit, they losing a great deal of money in selling the unit alone (provided they don't cut parts quality at the last second like they did with the PS2). If they fail to deliver on games in even the slightest they'll lose even more money on the PS3 than with the PS2. And yes the PS2 was a money pit, they sold it at a lost and only recieved a lump liscensing fee from the game producers regardless how well the games sold.

Why would anyone sell something that costs 1200 to make at 500?
>>1 They couldn't have rumble for legal reasons. But come on... After 10 or so years their controller still looks exactly the fucking same as what they had for the PS1.
I want the job of head-of-design for the PS4. Easiest job ever. Draw up some pretty looking prototypes, then build more PS2 controllers. Done.
True that, they were good controllers, but the analogue stick had a tendancy to grind away with use. I never had one that didn't get sticky after six months.

>>26 PS2 controllers and N64 controllers both degrade over time, though thinking about it the N64 ones perhaps a little faster...

"No Wifi Controller." OH NO!! I DON'T HAVE TO BUY BATTERIES?!
"No HDMI Out." Oh yeah, let's spend extra money on stuff most people don't even have! LOL!
"No Rumble Feature." Why do you even care?
"No Wifi Network." YOU MEAN I HAVE TO GO BACK TO 2003 WHEN EVERYTHING WAS WITH WIRES!!?
"PS3 is larger than original Xbox." Awright, now that does suck. The original Xbox could kill a small child. 360 could kill a daycare. PS3 could destroy countries. Things are not looking up for Earth.
Behold the PS3: Everything that lowers the price and only stupid people care.
I was actually quite looking forward to the WiFi controllers, my console desk has six consoles with an average of three controllers each, the wire jungle over there has become terrible.

Games make the console, not the other way around:
MGS4
Assasin's Creed
Resistance: fall of man
Tekken 6
FF XIII
FF Versus XIII
etc.

Of all those things, I AM a little suprised about the HDMI. It's catching on and it will be more common in another year when the system is expected to see release.
The rest will probably be available through addons that you can purchase seperately.

The 60GB PS3 WILL have HDMI output.
The controller will be wireless, but no rumble feature because of the motion senses they have bunged in.
Size...I dunno, I still think it looks cool so any extra size I am OK with.
Games, short answer- PS3 games = ownage
I will be getting one, I have lots of PS1 and PS2 games so a PS3 is the obvious choice.
Hell, it can't be worse than the xbox can it?
