Stuff review– PS3's Blu-ray comes out on top

UK gadget & electronic entertainment magazine 'Stuff' compares the PS3 Blu-ray player to the competition and says it blows the Samsung BD-P1000 'out of the water.'

"there's more detail and the colours are vibrant, to the point that this is the best next-gen spinner of them all so far."

No, actually it's in concordance with most other reviews. Nice try hateboy(tm).

Oh, I had to edit this because I just realized you're a moron. You do know that they were comparing two Blu-Ray players, and not the PS3 to an HD-DVD player? Right? I'll bet not.

I swear, the next best feature I'd love to see on this site is a "Comment" link that first takes you to the article before you can comment. The hateboys just love posting without reading.

It's unanimous that Playstation 3 is the top HD Movie player on the market, in addition to being the most powerful game console. Looks like Sony's decision to include HDMI 1.3 output was justified.

CG6319d ago (Edited 6319d ago )

We all know that your a lieing moron, you talk out your ass and no one cares what you say or think. Becuase when it comes to gaming you dont have a clue.

"It's unanimous that Playstation 3 is the top HD Movie player on the market, in addition to being the most powerful game console"

Oh Please...STFU

shotty6319d ago

I dont want to call you an idiot, but there are NO tvs even capable of HDMI 1.3. Simply put both the ps3 and xbox 360 have more than enough horsepower to output 1080p video, all this extra power gives a great picture. Stop bending over for sony, we are all gamers here. HDMI 1.3 is fully justifiable since alot of the TrueHD audio specs were ommited from blu-ray standards to get the format ready in time, HDMI 1.3 allows that audio to be sent and be processed by the receiver

DJ6319d ago

pushes their console harder than anything else on the market. In comparison, the PS3 can handle 16 simultaneous HD streams without a hitch.

Yeah, no one has HDMI 1.3 tvs yet, but they're coming out pretty soon and the reason it's important is because only 1.3 is capable of outputting 1080p at 60 frames per second.

I don't know why you guys are getting so uptight. I mean, it's not like Microsoft bothered to include HDMI output or anything.

CAPS LOCK6319d ago

kingboy6319d ago

TheMART6319d ago

dbug3606319d ago

Mart both you me and everyone else on this board no that was a very piss poor unethical and unprofessional comparison of HD v.s Blu Ray, you guys just don’t really like good news at all for the ps3

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow3d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1822d ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie2d ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

Hereandthere2d ago

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow1d 12h ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

Cockney1d 7h ago

They chose well, Sony gave them the backing to pursue their dreams with no restrictions even tho their games especially dreams have very niche appeal. Media molecule and Sony deserve respect for this in an age of risk averse publishing.

RNTody2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno2d ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Inverno2d ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii2d ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno2d ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
