the controller looks like one madcatz did for the orginal playstation that sucked.
but oh well.
i think its ugly.

[Bolter]

It looks like some sort of printer. Its massive!! Surely they could have squeezed it into a smaller package?

[quik]

I would prefer for it to be bigger, for better ventilation.

Looks like Spiderman 3, THE CONSOLE.

[Wheelman]

:tard: ewww.......

I have to say that contoller kinda looks like it should be on batmans utility belt. maybe when you get pissed and toss the controller across the room (c'mon guy I know I'm not the only one) it will come back to you

go go gadget ps3arang! :tard:

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe its just the pics that make it look that way?...

[Will Wood]

Yea, what's up with the spiderman text heh?
And those controlers, UHG! :tard:

Who cares what it looks like though, lets see come pictures from the games!

[SG Avenger]

My only thought on the controllers when I first saw them [batman references aside] was maybe it has some sort of gyroscope inside them. so you could use the controller like a steering wheel, say for racing games. You tilt it one way or the other to control a vehicle.

Otherwise completely rediculous and it looks uncomfortable.

[cdacda13]

NO, the controllers were the best part of ps/ps2. There are so much nicer then any controller.
Its ugly, but looks dont matter to me, as long as it performs great.

[Archangel Kid]

I think Sony knows that they have the best controller on the market. I DON'T think that they would go and make the same mistake Microsoft made with the regular XBox controller. I'm gunna go and say that, that MIGHT be a proto otherwise a fake.

[EDIT]
Wheres the controller ports and Memory card slots?

[Glickman]

wtf, really space efficient

[Hairball]

Kill the controller. With flames.

[Target Practice]

Looks like trash.

[Steelrat]

The controllers are all bluetooth wireless, no controller ports.

[DiSoRdeR]

These next gen consoles are just plane ugly. If this trend continues I do not even want to know what Nintendo's Revolution will look like.

[BlackHalo]

PS3 = convex
XBox 360 = concave

Anyone else worried that the 2 competing systems should be able to 'spoon' each other? ;)

I like the design of this controller. My biggest problem with the PS2 controller was that my pinkies cramped up when playing for long times. It was because there wasn't much on the ps2 controller for them to grab onto. We'll see how it goes, most likely they or a 3rd party will make a ps2 type controller for it

SG Avenger - didn't logitech make something like that for the PC?

[p8ntball365]

Oooh a detachable HD. Looks like a helmet. I'll go with the Xbox 360

[Head knight of Ni]

Nintendo Revolution:http://www.liquidlunch.plus.com/misc/Revolution3.jpg

It's not really that powerful. They decided to use full size discs this time.

[maxama10]

Xbox and MS suck! go sony linux and apple!whew! :p

[anonymousbill123]

ps3 looks like ****! and how the hell is someone supposed to hold that controller?

i dont care if they're wireless cuz so are xbox 360's

[DiSoRdeR]

Wow that doesnt look like something Nintendo would make, it actually looks kinda nice,

[FreakBaller12]

The xbox is schedueled to come out this novemeber
The new ps3 is schedueled to come out in spring 06

SOny is dumb, they say they're going to get alot of the market because the customers are smart and is going to realize that the ps3 has better graphics and will choose the ps3 :rolleyes:

[skife]

i still dont think thats the revloution, I saw one of the video's for it and it looked like a toaster and had some weird headset thing.

Yah that thing is fake... the pic above is real.

BOOMERANG CONTROLS are the BEST!!!!!!!!!!

[Morfesto]

That controller looks aquard , why can't they make a controller that is actually ergonomic? I really like the Game Cube controller. The only problem I found was the z button shoulda been underneath the grips ala N64. The Ps2 controller is awsome my only beef is that for games where you need to keep a finger on every shoulder button and use both analogs its hard to get a grip on it. And well the xbox ... I just don't like the xbox plain and simple. :tard:

No MS is dumb they're rushing to get the 360 out, rushing is very bad NOT to mention Sony can actually see what the 360 potential is and capitalize on the 360's failures, just like what MS did when they installed HD, better processor and parts. Well either way Sony has the most backed Game developing companies, fan base etc etc. Very smart move for Sony.

[automagking182]

Even though this controller may be ugly, IMO it is still better than anything Microsoft has ever put out. This thing will be more powerful than any other next generation console to come out in 2005/2006.

Microsoft could have made their controllers smaller to try and at least have a small chance at competing with Sony's smaller, sexier controllers when they put out the 360.. but I guess they just havent caught on yet with what the average consumer really wants. Halo saved X-Box.. if it hadnt been for it then I doubt there ever would have been a X-Box 360 (console #2). Pretty soon, however, I predict that just like any other faze thats ever come over the market, Halo will disappear.. and I wonder what Microsoft is going to do then. PS3 will completely dominate the market when it comes out, just as the X-Box has done with its crappy Halo game over the past year.

As for Nintendo, well, I highly respect their original ideas and games surrounding the 64 console back in the day (specifically Goldeneye, the king of all first person shooter games).. but if they dont get it in their heads that the whole Mario and Yoshi theme has pretty much lost its momentum, then I would be willing to bet that if their Revolution console doesnt have the least bit of technological edge over Microsoft's and Sony's feature consoles then there would have been no point in even making their's. Ill also be willing to bet that there is a good chance that they will go out of business in the States and will be forced to moving to computer software production or something of that sort. Lets face it, the Nintendo DS has been completely outdone by the Sony PSP in both popularity and technological advance, and as from what I can see by the looks of their little plastic 1'x1' box (aka Revolution).. they have pretty much forfeited their pride and popularity as once making some of the best and most inspiring games known to the U.S. market.

Come on the controllers for the PS3 are dfesigned for the newer players.
You know the ones that get so po'd over something they throw the controller.
Now it comes back

I would probably guess sony would kill to be in xbox's position right now...except with a better console. It was a smart move by ms to get it out before the ps3, not sony.
