Re: PlayB3yond - PS3 marketing
i think the ps3 is showing its worth...yeah, it's expensive, yeah sony is taking a lot of risk, but in 2 years when they really tap the potential of hi-def and putting a hundred objects on screen at once, i'm sure a lot of people will be going "ohhh" and "ahhhhhh."

When a tech demo is the only thing being processed it makes the rendering that much easier.
I think the dramatic effect still shines, however.

Whoa whoa whoa. No. That's not what I meant at all.
I said the raindrops and sunflowers could be processed by the PS3! All of that schmaltzy crap. Why didn't they use the PS3? I would have a ton more respect for Sony if they came up front and showed us exactly what the PS3 was by rendering everything. I said the exact same thing for the "This is Living" boxing ad. If your graphics and Cell processor are so impressive, Sony, why don't you render WHAT YOU'RE DISPLAYING RIGHT NOW.
Really, this marketing approach doesn't build any trust with me.

Are we hardwired to think certain ways or something?

Yeah, I think I kind of went off on a tangent and lost meaning in what I meant myself. I really didn't mean tech demo, I meant simulated FMV; which are obviously two entirely different things. If you look at my first post, that was more clear, as I was disappointed certain aspects of it were faked.
At any rate, your point is clear, mine is not (because I was lost track of my own point mid post), and the world is as it should be.

Re: PlayB3yond - PS3 marketing
And now I look like a dummy. I really edit my posts too much.
Edit: Hahaha, what is that "This is Living" ad? The Afrika footage definitely looks like it could be done on the PS2, and better, too. Where's my fur-shading techniques? That giraffe looked like plastecine.

Re: PlayB3yond - PS3 marketing
I'm excited about hte PS3. Probably will look into getting one when the price lowers a bit or when i get a better paying job. Hopefully I'll have an HDTV by that time.
Mmmmmmm.
