Does anyone know if the 40 Gig will still upconvert regular DVD movies?

I definitely think its Grocery Store Psychology. I just saw a new ps3 ad here in the states for Ratchet and Clank and it has the PS3 at the end and the man says “STARTING AT $399″. People like having the option of something cheaper, despite whether they choose it or not.

Simple fact is guys, negative PS3 news produces more comments and feedback than positive ones.

As Darrin has said, his recent ‘positive’ articles have received hardly any comments, compared to his other posts that may have been more ‘negative’ in the past.

I genuinely believe that this site doesn’t go over the top in it’s praise for the PS3 but when we are disappointed about something we don’t hide it and criticise it when we feel (as individuals) criticism is due.

Sporty, to use tidy links on here it’s:

Your right..the latest articles have been far more positive. And to be honest I think you’ve generally been more upbeat than Henning overall .. this site does have multiple personalities I’ve always assumed it was a closed system. See what I can do.

Hey, look at the last four posts I did that are still on the front page: R&C is glowingly positive (and people have accused me of being a Sony shill for praising R&C too much), Disgaea and Nobi Nobi were positive, and I added some positive analysis to the financial loss of Sony’s gaming division.

Those posts got 2, 1, 1, 0 comments (excluding mine). This is the only post that got a response. BTW, I don’t own this site, or make a single dime off of this, I just do it for fun and for comments.

And, I completely agree, that in general, the media is way too negative about the PS3.

If we’re missing positive stories, speak up! We’re always watching for positive stories, and would love to add more. If you get some good leads, we can write them up, or if you would like to give it a shot and take the time to write it up and get pics/links, I’ll post it for you.
