PS3 Portal 2 the definitive version to get – Q&A unveiled

April 13, 2011

PS3 Portal 2 the definitive version to get – Q&A unveiled With the release date for Portal 2 approaching next week, Valve has started to reveal more information around the built in Steam feature for the PS3 version of the game. From the looks of it Valve is incorporating many of the community features into the PS3 version.

Earlier today Valve released a new Q&A page on the official Steam Powered site. The page is titled – Portal 2 and Steam on PlayStation 3.

The page answers various questions such as how to access Steam on the PS3, and what are the features. The page also shows users how to link their PSN ID to their Steam ID. In addition, the page outlines how to redeem a free copy of the Portal 2 PC game.

To access Steam on the PS3 you simply press the SELECT button to access the menu, which looks strikingly similar to the PC version. Once you pull up the overlay, which runs in the background like the XMB, gamers can chat with other players; see friends, achievements and news.

Steamchat

This is some pretty cool stuff Valve has implemented on the PS3 version of the game as the essence of Steam has been integrated seamlessly into Portal 2 as a secondary sub-community within the PSN service.

In addition to the cross-platform (PC & PS3) chat and co-op play, the Steam cloud save feature is nice as well. This allows gamers who pickup the PS3 version, and install the free PC version on a laptop to continue where they left off on the go as well.

Portal_cloudsync

Portal 2 features an extensive single player campaign and a separate online co-op campaign. The game is set to launch next week April 19 in the U.S. and April 21 across Europe.

    This is gonna be the first PS3 game I’ve bought in a while, I’ll probably play through on the PC first and then save the PS3 one for when I feel a bit lazy. I really hope Valve implement this in future, being able to play on multiple platforms with one version is excellent. The PS3 version of steam looks pretty good too, I want to here more about the “big screen” mode that steam is getting, I imagine the UI has some similarities between that of the console one.

  2. oldschool1987:

    Can’t wait for this! Big fan of Valve games. Glad they got off their high horse with their ‘PS3 sucks’ attitude.

  3. gunstar:

    I hope there is a chance for us PS3 gamers to avail ourselves of the ridiculously inexpensive games available on Steam.

    And will this mean those games from small indie developers who rely on Steam will have their upcoming games playable on PS3?

  4. Rimmer:

    i’d be inclined to get the PS3 version (even though I don’t have one yet) just because of the PC version included. The way I see it I pay a little more and get the PS3 version thrown in for when I do get the console. Win win :)

  5. Godless:

    I’m not sure about this game, I need to look into it a bit more.

    The steam thing looks good, maybe Sony will get there fingers out of the butts and try and implement some of what steam does on there current UI.

    I’m not sure having a version steam on the PS3 will suddenly allow PS3 owners to get there hands on cheap games, because despite you guys constantly saying how open the PS3 is, Sony will still have the say on exactly what is allowed on steam and probably a large say in how much it will cost too.

    Steam will only ever be as good a Sony will allow it to be, and judging by some of there current controlling policies they could be the huge thorn in its side.

    I have no faith is Sony allowing steam to be all it could be, because it’s a direct threat to the somewhat shoddy effort that is “Sony store”

  6. phranctoast:

    Maybe capt can post that video again. The game looks pretty cool. Amazon is also giving a $20 credit.

    I don’t see evil Sony holding back valve like you seem to see. Those games on steam are programmer for the PC. Of course you can’t get them on ps3.

    If you read more about steam integration you’d see it’s more for updates then game sales on the ps3.

  7. Rimmer:

    Godless, Steam is already well established in the PC & Mac market as one of the biggest providers of games, so how Sony treat it will have little impact on them. Only time will tell whether it will also be able to establish a foothold in the console market.

  8. Godless:

    I have a steam account on the PC, and have bought a couple of games via it

    I like the buddies system and would compare it to M$’ Live system for chat and gaming, I would love to see it integrated to the PS3 front end somehow, as it would be so much better than the excising system.

    I fear that what we will have, is little more than a launching app for the portal game itself, and maybe any further games they do, which is all good and well, but it’s hardly going to be Steam as we know it.

    That’s what I was trying to say.

  9. phranctoast:

    I’ve read nothing specific about the deal Sony and Valve hammered out. I’m under the impression that it will only effect Valve games.

  10. Barnabe Jones:

    If anyone is holding back Steam for consoles it’s M$. Hence why Steam is offered on the PS3 version, and not the 360.

    It’s ridiculous to try and warp it otherwise.

  11. ncaissie:

    Anyone else notice it says “Achievements”?

  12. FahKinSuPah:

    Thats a pretty cool set of features.

  13. lock_down:

    That’s the Steam system they’re showing, I think.

  14. Roca.:

    “If anyone is holding back Steam for consoles it’s M$. Hence why Steam is offered on the PS3 version, and not the 360.

    It’s ridiculous to try and warp it otherwise”

    nailed it… kind of sad that Godless always trying to squeeze something negative about every PS3 news.

    PS3 has cloud saving, which one of the Steam features I always wanted and with PSN+ I get discount on DL games even the day of release.

  15. phranctoast:

    I liken plus to a bands fan club. Optional, but if you do get it, it entitles you to some goodies. Cloud based saving is one of those.

  16. phranctoast:

    “That’s the Steam system they’re showing, I think.”

    Idk. There’s ps brand icons. Triangle and x.

  17. Mike Ferro:

    @ncaisse,
    “Anyone else notice it says “Achievements”?”

    Steam’s system is called “Steam Achievements,” which will tie in with the PS3 Trophy system.

  18. Roca.:

    anyone else notice that just about every major multiplatform game is a better purchase on PS3 (free online, free game, free DLC, free exclusive content, etc)

    -Mass Effect 2 (all DLC included)
    -Dead Space 2 (Dead Space: Extraction included)
    -Medal of Honor (Medal of Honor: Frontlines included)
    -Mortal Kombat (Kratos, nuff said)
    -L.A Noire (exclusive content)
    -Days of Thunder (Bluray movie include)
    -Top Gun (Bluray movie included)
    -Portal 2 (free PC version + Steamworks + crossplatform + could saving)

    Also, most PS3 exclusive games are coming with extra stuff:

    -LBP2 (over 3 million levels from LBP1)
    -Killzone 3 (Socom 4 beta included)
    -Socom 4 (Resistance 3 beta included)
    -White Knight Chronicles II (Original WKC *redone* Included)

    “The steam thing looks good, maybe Sony will get there fingers out of the butts and try and implement some of what steam does on there current UI.”
    Fuck you. That looks like Shit!
    There is nothing wrong with the XMB.

  20. ncaissie:

    It’s the Xbox menu that sucks ASS. You are just too stupid to see it. Probably because you can’t see past all the ads.

  21. ncaissie:

    “Godless, Steam is already well established in the PC & Mac market as one of the biggest providers of games,”
    The last time I installed steam it was a buggy POS. I hated having to install it to play Half life 2.

  22. Godless:

    @ Ncaissie
    “The last time I installed steam it was a buggy POS. I hated having to install it to play Half life 2.”

    LOL. .and the PS3 front end is not buggy. .LMAO

    If I’m jumping in and out of I player/ vidzone or trying to access internet for something . .?

    (ok porn). I can almost guarantee that at some point in the evening the PS3 will freeze. .it does it almost every bloody night unless I’m just gaming.

    Can’t say that I’ve ever had issues with steam, other than the long winded install and updates.

    I’m not sure what XMB stands for but I’m guessing it’s the PS3 front end and to say it is good is a joke.

    Ncaissie, you so far up Sony ass you don’t know if it’s day or night. Sony are shit at GUIs always have been and probably always will be. .the PS3 is one of their better efforts but it still unintuitive and clunky. At least it’s not pure dead ugly like 99.9% of their other efforts

    Get someone who has never used a PS3 to try and do something on it. (play a movie, disk or of external drive or streaming, view images, play music.what ever, then get the same person to try the same thing on the Xbox. .you will see that the Xbox is way more user friendly than the PS3, and it doesn’t crash between applications.

    Now before you launch into a “The PS3 can do more things” I don’t care, that doesn’t mean it’s allowed to be any less user friendly. .My TV has a better GUI than the PS3

  23. FahKinSuPah:

    @Roca

    “anyone else notice that just about every major multiplatform game is a better purchase on PS3 (free online, free game, free DLC, free exclusive content, etc)

    -Mass Effect 2 (all DLC included)”

    I have to correct you on this one.

    The PS3 version of ME2 doesn’t come will EVERY DLC.

    It didn’t come with Arrival :-D

  24. FahKinSuPah:

    @Godless

    XMB = Cross Media Bar

  25. Roca.:

    “I’m not sure what XMB stands for but I’m guessing it’s the PS3 front end and to say it is good is a joke.”

    what really is a joke is you trying to say it’s a bad UI when the XMB is an award winning UI – which is not used on many Sony divices becuase of its simplicity and easy navigation design.

    Microsoft tried to copied with its bloated and ad-fest NXE UI. It’s pretty much the XMB but instead of being vertical is sideways with slices & fancy huge icons that are layers deep and cofusing. I bet that won’t win any awards anytime soon.

    “My TV has a better GUI than the PS3″

    TV Guide? lmao
    “The XMB interface won the Technology & Engineering Emmy Award for “Outstanding Innovation and Achievement in Advanced Media Technology for the Best Use of Personal Media Display and Presentation Technology” in 2006

    Can’t argue against facts.
    And the PS3 browser crash as often as IE6, IE7 & IE8.

    Everyone should take note that Godless is such a fanboy that is bashing the PS3 UI based on the performance & stability of a couple of “application” (like the web browser and VidZone) – Those have nothing to do with the UI itself. You are trying too hard but you’re failing badly.

  26. phranctoast:

    pwned!

  27. CON:

    Not much change around here then.

    Roca trolling here daily taking offence at ANYTHING negative about the PS3, regardless of truth or facts and Norman….a man in his 40s shouting down his fellow trolls with pure hatred and contempt! LOL where did it all go wrong for you guys??? :)

    To be honest I think Valve have had to do a lot of back tracking. Due to this console gen being longer than previous gens with the longevity of games now via DLC and other economic factors I’m pretty sure when Valve first shat all over the PS3 they didn’t think in 2011 there would still be no sign of a new console from either of the big 3.

  28. Roca.:

    wow – typed the wrong words a few times on my previous post.

    not = now
    slices = slides
    verical = horizontal

    @Phranc
    lol, this is one of those post Godless usually ignore and responds to :)

    @CON
    How’s Kinect Sports? lol

  29. jojo29:

    CON
    Finally crawls out of his troll cave…I reckon CAD isn’t too far behind…..or HH…<—– both of whom will get splendid surprise comments in the wake of the 3rd60….oh and the truth of milliione of sold xboxes were indeed replacements bloating up the 3rd60s numbers….

  30. twilight:

    I think Godless is just referring to the simplicity of the performance of the Xbox360 vs the Ps3. Downloads are much quicker on Xbox360, you don’t have to constantly install games to the hardrive on Xbox360 before you can play games, and the Xbox360 doesn’t freeze up as much as the Ps3 does.

  31. FahKinSuPah:

    @twilight

    “Downloads are much quicker on Xbox360, you don’t have to constantly install games to the hardrive on Xbox360 before you can play games”

    Definately a plus.

    I hate downloading things on PS3 for these very reasons.

  32. CaptBirdman:

    The PS3 only freezes because the shit browser. I’ve never had a qualm with the XMB outside a game. One thing I will say is better on Xbox, is the speed at which it handles WITHIN a game. You try to hit the PS home button whilst playing SSF4, you can just say goodbye to half your health. That shit takes forever to pop up and forever to go away. On Xbox, it’s the same speed, in or out of a game.

    Out of a game, PS3 XMB is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay faster than NXE. And it doesn’t randomly freeze– you have to use the browser to experience a PS3 freeze.

    But hey. At least it has one ;)

  33. twilight:

    FahKinSuPah,
    I’ve always hated game installs the most, especially when you’re excited to check out a game for the first time. I hope the new Mortal Kombat game doesn’t have a mandatory install.
    Birdman,
    The Ps3 does freeze up when you use the web browser sometimes. However, it will occasionally fteeze up while playing a game or demo as well.

  34. oldschool1987:

    Hey look, CON the terrorist fucking, racist(called Ivan a spik), rat bag is back, spewing his venom yet again lol. I notice you came back a while after it was reported and proven that the Xbox is now the 3rd60, thought we forgot? Lol

    I’m surprised you came back, I thought you would of blew yourself up by now.

  35. CON:

    Old you’re getting old…..excuse the pun :)

    You vote for the BNP – a party that denies the holocaust.

    I don’t run from anything, unlike you lol. Show me those official stats as microsoft announced 50m sales or else shut the fuck up ;)

  36. oldschool1987:

    Never voted for BNP, show me where I said I voted for them or stfu yourself, racist.

    And what did I run from, coward? I see you’re once again acting the big man you pretend to be lol, must be a side effect from being bullied at school.

    There’s an article a few pages back showing proof the 3rd60 is in 3rd place. I don’t see you posting anything to say otherwise.

    And your pun sucked. Must be the best a terrorist coward can come up with. A man who sits in the dark, full of anger about being bullied all his lfe, venting his frustration at a computer screen lmao. Such a fucking loser, I love laughing at wasters like you.

  37. oldschool1987:

    Do us all a favor CONvict, go back to your little terrorist cell and talk about what you want to do to British Soldiers and how much you hate them. Because that’s about as far as you’ll ever go about doing something: talking about it lol

  38. CaptBirdman:

    @Twilight

    “The Ps3 does freeze up when you use the web browser sometimes.”

    I said that…

    “The PS3 only freezes because the shit browser.”

    See?

    “However, it will occasionally fteeze up while playing a game or demo as well.”

    Nope, never. Again. your luck with consoles is wank… I’ve never had a freezeup on a demo or game, EVER. And I have somewhere close to 30 demos. (The SOCOM beta doesn’t count because it was a patch error in the coding, not a freeze)

  39. twilight:

    Birdman,
    It is good for you that you have never had any problems. My friends and I have certainly experienced these issues.

  40. CaptBirdman:

    I just take what you say with a grain of salt. You have to admit– your track record with consoles is extraordinarily bad…not to mention you flip flop more than a marlin on deck.

    Maybe because women and electronics don’t really go together…. ;)

    (It’s a joke)

  41. oldschool1987:

    You on about PS3 game freezing issues? There’s only one game that has made my console freeze and crash and that is Fallout New Vegas. The game is that fucking faulty it crashed ALL the time, I snapped the disc in half lol. Fucking disgraceful that they sell us an unfinished game for full price.

  42. ncaissie:

    “LOL. .and the PS3 front end is not buggy. .LMAO”
    I have never seen a bug retard.

  43. ncaissie:

    Looks like CON the idiot is back.

  44. ncaissie:

    The XMB is on my PS3, PSP, BR player, and TV.

  45. ncaissie:

    Lmao 40s? You’re a fuckin retard.

  46. ncaissie:

    I don’t use the browser and my ps3s never freeze.

  47. oldschool1987:

    @ncaissie: CONmong has just been getting picked on a lot lately, so he comes on here to vent his frustration at being a nobody. Dm, the loser, terrorist will fuck off soon enough lol.

  48. twilight:

    Birdman,
    I haven’t been on Xbox360 in quite awhile. As you know, I am always on Psn. I have been playing quite a bit of Topspin 4. I enjoy beating up on Ivan Lendl. I never liked him.
    As far as the system thing goes, I have in store warranties on both systems.
    Lol. I must be the electronics lady. I am always being asked about t.v.s/gaming systems by both men and women. In fact, I was in Best Buy one day and the Best Buy lady asked me for help with the gaming systems.

  49. ncaissie:

    LOL so true OS.

  50. twilight:

    Anyways, tomorrow is Harry Potter day. There is only one Harry Potter movie left to go. It has been quite a journey. I love the Harry Potter films.

  51. ncaissie:

    I picked up 3 copies of biosshock 2 for $10 each today. Fucking EB has a one copy policy for some retarded reason.
    One for me and two for my nephews.

  52. ncaissie:

    Part two starts tomorrow? I still need to watch part one. My wife wants to re-watch all of them first though. I don’t mind watching them again.

  53. twilight:

    Ncaissie,
    Part one comes out on blu ray tomorrow. Part 2 will be out in theaters later.

  54. oldschool1987:

    I take it HP is famous in America as well? Nice to know some British films do well stateside. Well I suppose we had a few good uns like Dark Knight, Inception, Alien, Gladiator, Bond(1st 20 are a bit dated lol), but apart from these and a few others I can’t think of, British films sucks lol.

    I should mention LOTR but its a hybrid of countries, British story, British actors, American funded with a New Zealand crew lol.

  55. oldschool1987:

    You aint got Part 1 on BluRay yet? That sucks lol

  56. twilight:

    Oldschool,
    We don’t get the lastest Harry Potter blu ray until tomorrow in America. I’ve seen all of the Harry Potter films.
    As far as movies go, it doesn’t matter to me about what country the film comes from. America makes a lot of movies but there are still a bunch of crappy American movies too.

  57. oldschool1987:

    All I’m getting at is that if it weren’t for America then films would be wank lmao. Got a MASSIVE DVD collection(and I mean massive) so films are kind of a hobby of mine.

    There’s bound to be shit American films obviously, so many get released. I weren’t saying they were all great. Just saying they do the best one and especially TV programs like Lost, BSG, 24, Sopranos, The Wire, etc

  58. CaptBirdman:

    Technically Oldy, Nolan’s films are world films. Both Batman films and Inception are American produced and for the most part uses American actors, aside Bale (English), Tom Hardy (English), Michael Caine (very Cockney English lol), Ellen Page (Canadian), Marion Cotillard (French), Cilian Murphy and Liam Neeson (both Irish), Gary Oldman ( my fellow Londoner) and Ken Watanabe (Japanese).

    There are a handful of English actors, and my favourite is Tom Hardy :)

    @CON

    lol

  60. oldschool1987:

    But those films are from the mind of Nolan and his brother, he created the stories(especially Inception), they’re his films, sure they are American paid for but the Imagination of it comes from English writters(except Goyer on DK) and Director. Most of the cast are mainly English, well a majority. Most people class Nolan films as British, even Memento and Insomnia.

    For some reason I knew you would disagree Bird lol. Dark Knight would be shit without the Nolan brothers, or definitely not as good and Inception would not exist.

  61. oldschool1987:

    Come on Bird let us Brits have this one, Nolan films are British mainly, not 100% but mainly. You Americans have enough great films to call your own lmao.

    You do know that Grand Theft Auto is British as well right? Made in UK and the creator Dan Houser is English? Lol

    We don’t have much media to be proud of but these ones I am lol.

    Doctor Who can fuck off back in his gay time machine(even though I slightly enjoyed tennants Dr)

  62. twilight:

    I guess I didn’t think about it this way Oldschool. I have a big collection of blu rays and only a handful of dvd’s. The only stuff I own on dvd is just the films that didn’t come out on blu ray.

  63. CaptBirdman:

    Oldy, you bastard, I’m English lol You keep saying “You Americans”

  64. oldschool1987:

    Ok, you semi-American lmao

  65. CaptBirdman:

    LOL

    *grumble*

  66. Godless:

    Just going back to blu rays

    I’m not buying any more Blu ray till they cost the same or less than a DVD

    the last couple of blu rays I got 300 & Planet earth are no better than the DVDs, in fact I would go so far as to say in some shots the effect of low frame rate causes a slight judder to be noticeable on panning shots.

    I’ve never really pushed this matter because you guys always sarcastically make the “oh yeah and up scaling is as good as true 1080″ remark, but the truth is in many cases it actually is better.

    When my system upscales it does it 1080 @50hz blu ray is 1080 @24Hz and both 300 & Planet Earth (stunning documentary with some of the best camera work you will ever witness) you can see blu ray falling shot due to the low refresh rate

    Add to that, the FACT that in both films there is no noticeable difference in image quality, other than the DVD being smother for panning shots.

    I guess this is why games stick to higher frame rates and lower res, the result just looks better when there’s a lot moving onscreen

    I truly think there’s a touch of the emperors new cloths going on with blu ray, with people unwilling to just say “well actually It’s just not that good sometimes”

    As for XMB mine crashes a lot. .like I said, at least once a night if I’m using anything other than games. Vidzone iplayer and the browser are the worst culprits, but it also does it a lot when accessing my external drive.

    My wife refuses to use the PS3 now because it has crashed on her every time she was using it to view photos,(I think 3 times each time me say, I was a fluke it shouldn’t do it again) and she won’t touch it now in case it breaks or it corrupts the photos, the Xbox, as never had any problems accessing the same drive.

  67. CaptBirdman:

    LOL. .darn, I wish I has sound on my work pc :)

  69. Godless:

    I think my frustration with the PS3 has come to a head. .I had not logged onto the Xbox for over a week or so. and the constant crashing and stuttery game play and crammpy hands after 10 minutes had started to get to me.

    feeling better now though, got some Xbox gaming in last night, and it was a crash free experience well kind of, I was playing blur so the only crashes were supposed to happen.

    If only the PS3 were as stable as my beloved Xbox ;D

    Now that’s Trolling ;)

  74. Barnabe Jones:

    With all of the money M$ changes Xbot Live owners to access their own internet connection – why isn’t Steam coming to Xbot Live?

    I thought Xbot Live was so great and superior for such and such reason? With the high premium shouldn’t there be something worthwhile offered? Instead you get Kinect dash integration.

    lol xbots. Biggest bunch of hypocritical idiots out there. :D

  75. ncaissie:

    “I’m not buying any more Blu ray till they cost the same or less than a DVD”
    LMAO you retard. That is never going to happen. As the BR drops in price the DVD will also drop. You have to be the dumbest person on blorge (besides Ivan).
    Did you boycott CD because they cost more than Tapes? Did you boycott DVD because they cost more than VHS?
    LOL idiot. Have your mommy explain how the world works.

  76. Godless:

    Errmm . .Rock

    Darn . .I should of had that one :D

  77. ncaissie:

    “and she won’t touch it now in case it breaks or it corrupts the photos,”
    Your wife is even dumber than you? LMAO unbelievable.

  78. dans303:

    @godless

    Call it a draw? ;)

  79. Roca.:

    @Godless
    Bluray usually don’t look any good on a 10″ kitchen TV man.

    Your Bluray comments was the lamest troll attempt this year (in blorge)…well I guess when your whole “PS3 UI suks” arguement got shut down you had nothing else to troll about, so Bluray was you last straw.

    Bluray is the best optical format and it’s the standard HD format.

    Godless – “If only the PS3 were as stable as my beloved Xbox ”

    If only you werent such a fanboy liar like the rest of the xbots out there who has nothing to look forward to other than Michael Phelps and more Kinect shovelware.

  80. Godless:

    @ Ncaissie

    Not sure how old you are, but I’m guessing to young to remember what really happened when we had Vinyl, tapes and CDs for music.

    The CD was the cheapest option after a few years as it was cheaper to mass produce, likewise the move to DVD from tape, once the ball got rolling the DVD was way cheaper to produce and the Tape cost more and had poorer quality and was abandoned in a flash

    There is no reason BR should cost 1.5 to 2 times what the DVD costs, unless it’s triple play or something.. go ask you mommy. .maybe she’s old enough to know what actually happened. -

    I won’t call you a Retard, because I’ve a feeling you have a learning disability, and that’d be a shame.

  81. Roca.:

    @ncaissie
    His wife is another xbot lol.
    They both make stuff up to make it seems as if the 360 is a better built device.

    The world knows is not true.
    and keeps blaming application crashes on the XMB… Pathetic.

    maybe if you had a TV good enough you’d see the problems I’m highlighting

  83. Godless:

    Roca,

    My wife, is no gamer, not in any way shape or form, but she does expect a device to do what it’s supposed to do without falling on it’s arse

    the external drive is now plugged into the TV so she can play the kids movies and check photos or whatever without needing any console, but before we got the TV she hated using the PS3. .just a fact Roca

    Just cos you don’t like it doesn’t make it a lie.

  84. Roca.:

    “There is no reason BR should cost 1.5 to 2 times what the DVD costs”

    other than (see below)… I don’t think Bluray should cost a penny more than DVD. /sarcasm
    *better video codec
    *better sound codec and supported format
    *higher resolution
    *more content (which can include the digital & DVD versions)
    *sratch resistance hard coating
    *Online interaction
    *higher trasfer rate for data, video & audio
    *higher video bit rate

    I also think there is no reason HDTV should cost 2 to 5 times as much as SDTV /sarcasm.

    Godless, keep the trolling comments coming. It’s only making you look foolish.

  85. Roca.:

    “My wife, is no gamer, not in any way shape or form, but she does expect a device to do what it’s supposed to do without falling on it’s arse”

    Look man, you have been cought making shit up many times. why would I believe anything you (or your wife, if there’s any) say.

    Everytime I prove you wrong (with links and facts) you avoid & ignore my comments. you’re such a lame troll

  86. ncaissie:

    “Bluray usually don’t look any good on a 10? kitchen TV man.”
    LMAO

  87. ncaissie:

    “The CD was the cheapest option after a few years as it was cheaper to mass produce, likewise the move to DVD from tape, once the ball got rolling the DVD was way cheaper to produce and the Tape cost more and had poorer quality and was abandoned in a flash”
    LMAO you are so full of SHIT! DVDs cost $30-$40 when they first came out. VHS where $15-$25 at the time. DVD took off fast and VHS died just as fast. You are such a liar. You were probably buying pirated DVDs on the street corner.

    “Look man, you have been cought making shit up many times. why would I believe anything you (or your wife, if there’s any) say.”

    You’re full of shit

    Just because I thought I had downloaded the demo of crysis on the PS3, when actually it was on the Xbox. .big wow

    Easy to make a mistake like that when you play both consoles. and it caught BTW

    other than that, where are all my other (Lies) as you call them?

    PS nothing you listed would make a BR disk any more expensive

    and the “*higher transfer rate for data, video & audio”

    is bullshit anyway, in theory DVD has a higher data transfer rate than BR for now anyways.

    I can copy a blu ray rip onto a DVD and play it with no problems, (granted I’d need a few discs, but the transfer rate is not a problem)

  89. ncaissie:

    “PS nothing you listed would make a BR disk any more expensive”
    Production cost probably has to do with it. Also BR is the latest thing and “as always” the latest thing cost more.

  90. Roca.:

    ncaissie is right:
    “In October 1982, Sony launched the CDP-101 in Japan for the then equivalent of $1,000, and the lineup of CBS/Sony launch albums went out for $16 to $18 a piece (twice that of vinyl LP‘s)”

  93. Godless:

    Ncaissie, from your post 2 up.

    How old were you when this was happening. 6? .you’re Wrong
    in the UK DVD took years to become dominant

    during that time the price of DVDs fell to the point that it was lower than the Tape, then in a very short space of time the tape was phased out, despite the fact that most people still had VHS recorders and not DVD players. .it’s all driven by profits of the corporations, if it cost then more to produce something they will drop support for it.

    the switch to DVD was not driven by Joe public but by the corporations

    In fact I have a 1080 rip of Avatar that fits on a single DVD, I would challenge any of you to tell it from the BD version.

  94. Roca.:

    “Easy to make a mistake like that”

    Seems like you make mistakes on 75% of your posts.

  95. Godless:

    Sorry for random last comment,

    I just remembered I had it and that it was 3.8GB and was impossible to tell from the BD version.

  96. Godless:

    like what Roca ??

  97. twilight:

    Godless,
    I don’t know about where you live but blu rays are about the same cost as dvd’s where I live. As far as picture quality goes, I recommend that you buy blu rays that have good picture quality. 300 was filmed in a specific grainy style and this style of movie does not translate over to the type of picture quality that you are looking for. If you want top picture quality, then you should buy movies like Tron Legacy, Dark Knight, I Robot, Avatar, and Troy. These are some examples of movies with excellent picture quality. If you can’t tell the difference in picture quality, then it means something is wrong.

  98. Roca.:

    “is bullshit anyway, in theory DVD has a higher data transfer rate than BR for now anyways.”

    another lie from you.
    Thanks ncaissie for proving him wrong…(again!)

  99. Roca.:

    “300 was filmed in a specific grainy style and this style of movie does not translate over to the type of picture quality that you are looking for”

    pwned!!!

    Well said Twilight. but even with its grainy style it still looks better than DVD… But Godless is used to settle for the lowest quality content, that’s why he is an xbot lmao

  100. Godless:

    Roca, Ncaissie, you’re both morons

    I didn’t say DVD at x1 was faster than BD at x1

    DVD transfer rates can blow away BD for now, Jesus you guys are obtuse or just plane stupid

    I have Avatar, Troy & irobot on BD, I also have irobot & Avatar on DVD.

    my comment stand for all these films, while still images may be better, in certain panning shots, I would say DVD looks better, simply because there is no discernable judder to the scrolling image, which you DO get on BD

    maybe you both have slow updating eyes. .to match your slow updating brains

  101. Godless:

    LOL

    maybe its just a PS3 thing after all.

    And I sold the samsung player. .shit

    I just did a search on google and found hundreds of links with the same issue

    http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1153299

  102. Roca.:

    ^ more of the same bullshit.

    can you prove any of what you say.
    find me a article from a well known site that says DVD looks better than Bluray.

    I have Troy, Avatar, 300, the first 6 Harry Portter movies (which cost me $45, Bluray prices are sweet most of the time), Sherlock Holmes, Heat, Inception and about 50 others and I have yet to experience any judder with them. I fact, I was experiencing a few judders while watching BD, DVD, TV channels and even gaming when I switch to a 120hz TV and turning that feature off easily fix the issue.

    You are just full of it.
    The DVD vs BD arguemet is ridiculous.

  103. ncaissie:

    “during that time the price of DVDs fell to the point that it was lower than the Tape,”
    That didn’t happen in Canada.

  104. ncaissie:

    “In fact I have a 1080 rip of Avatar that fits on a single DVD, I would challenge any of you to tell it from the BD version.”
    Compressed to Shit maybe. If you say you can’t see the difference you are a liar. And a Divx Rip of a DVD fits on a single CD so what? It is still compressed.

  105. ncaissie:

    I think Godless is hanging out with HH the dipshit to much.

  106. Roca.:

    they must have been twins in their previous life.

  107. Godless:

    Ncaissie. Roca .Do you guys lie a lot, because you accuse other of it without knowing them?

    try reading some forums, you’ll see I’m not the only person how has noticed these things.

    http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=blu+ray+judder+panning&meta=&aq=f&aqi=g-v1&aql=&oq=

    maybe is because you think I’m having a dig at Sony… don’t worry guys, I won’t make you stop sucking Sonys dick. .just accept that I see what I see, and ask yourself “why the hell would I lie”

    maybe it’s because the xbox, playing a DVD can match the PS3 playing a blu ray, that must be the answer, what do you think Roca, Ncaissie.

  108. Roca.:

    based on your own link, most users came to the conclusions that the problem is not a PS3 issue. The issue is due to coverting 24hz into 60hz, 72hz, 120hz or higher.

    DVD is so low res you that it doesnt even matter as spotting such small detail is impossible on DVDs no matter how much you upscale them.

    Like I said, I’ve experienced some judder with my 120hz TV, it’s not just for Bluray movies but for gaming, HD TV channels and even netflix.

    again, find me a site (not a forum) that can back up your “DVD better than Bluray” claim. until then you’re welcome to keep making a fool of yourself.

  109. ncaissie:

    We are supposed to take the word of idiots in forums over word over the professionals? LOL ok

  110. Godless:

    Guys

    I’m not claiming the DVD is better than Blu ray

    Only that when I watch certain blu ray movies, is see a judder effect in scenes where there is a lot of panning.(and this is not a good thing)

    Now until today, I had never bothered to Google it, I figured it was just down to the 24FPS, and it was noticeable.

    It now looks like I need to investigate what might be causing it, my TV says 24P when I start to play Blu ray movies on the PS3, sadly I sold the Samsung BR player when I got the new TV, figuring the PS3 will do, so I have nothing else to compare against for now.

    My old TV didn’t support 24P, but downscaled to 720p @ 50hz when playing Blu ray and I can’t say I ever noticed a problem then

    when I play DVD on my TV it switched to 1080 @50Hz and for me this looks better because it’s totally smooth, and the up scaling works really well. it is all but impossible to tell the difference in the 3 movies I have on both formats.

    And yes I’m sad enough to have done the play then along side each other test, switching between Xbox and PS3 and trying to tell which was which. .Like I said I would bet good money none of you would be able to tell, unless it juddered, in which case you’d know it was blu ray

  111. ncaissie:

    I have done BR side by side with the Hulk movie and I seen a big difference in quality.
    Like twilight said the movie is only as good as how it is filmed. Why do you think the cut scenes in the GOW collections looked awful compared to the game play?
    That said I don’t think it would look worse on BR than DVD. You are just making it up.

  112. Godless:

    Check this out

    http://www.projectorcentral.com/judder_24p.htm

    exactly what I was saying and if the check the response from twentyfourpee

    5 down he mentions planet earth, but he says that if you watch it in anything other than 24P it judders

    I need to see why my system claims 24P but still judders.

    Maybe just some people can’t see it while other can I don’t know

  113. Godless:

    Fuck me the more I look into this the more I feel vindicated by the evidence .

    this judder thing is a huge issue.

    Ironically, it would appear that the better your system the more noticeable the issue gets.

    So Screw you Roca, and Screw you Ncaissie

  114. Roca.:

    “I need to see why my system claims 24P but still judders”

    becuase the TV recognizes it as 24hz but it display them on the screen at a higher frame rate (maybe 60hz, 120hz, etc) – My 120hz TV says the say thing when I play a Bluray movie but even though it says 24hz you can tell the frames are smoother and faster.

    sometimes you get a lil jadder (nothing that will ruin the overall experiece) and to fix that you have to calibrate you TV and set the frame rate close to zero or simply set it off. (I forgot what’s called in the System settings) I have a Samsung TV as well I can let you know how to set it off once I get home. Send me a friend invite on PS3 – my ID is D-Roca if you really want to know.

    BD transfer more resolution per frame than DVD and that’s why you can get some judder but DVD picture quality is no where as good as Bluray. That’s why I haven’t watched or bought a single DVD since I bought my PS3.

  115. Godless:

    Like I said Emperors new clothes

    Let me be the first to shout

    “24P sucks shit” bring on 50P. . or something ;)

  116. Godless:

    Roca

    If you can fix it I would be amazed, looks like thousands of people have this problem, and it turns out it’s just the way 24P is

    Which Samsung have you got?

  117. Godless:

    My TV can only do up to 60Hz, and it lets me know when it changes the refresh rate, so the 24P is 24P

    if it does 1080 at 50Hz it lets you know, this is the standard DVD out from the xbox or PS3 front end
    If i remember right the DVD out from the PS3 stays at 720p, not sure why it doesn’t upscale for that.

  118. Roca.:

    Movie studios records their movies in 24hz. so 120hz TVz is false advertisements. the frames will most likely look nicer, smoother and faster (and sometime they will like “fake”) but it’s not native 120hz.

    I have not played any DVD on my PS3 but I know there is a “DVD upcale” option in the settings

    idk the model of my tv, I have to look it up when I get home. I have another 60hz Samsung TV as well (both TVz are 46″), I’ll check the settings for that one as well.

  119. twilight:

    Godless,
    If you truly think that these movies look better on dvd, then either your t.v. sucks or it it is not calibrated correctly. The blu ray versions of these movies blow the dvd versions of these movies away.

  120. Godless:

    No twilight they don’t, not for me and thousands of others.

    Yes the resolution is better and therfore the image is sharper, but this means toss all if it all starts to judder when panning

    http://www.projectorcentral.com/judder_24p.htm

    read through some of this and you’ll get an idea of what I think on the matter.

    My TV has a shit hot picture, and I remember thinking when I first got it how much better it was over the old 720 model I had, and still have for the second xbox.

  121. Roca.:

    You link actually states what I said before – its a bluray or PS3 issue, its because of the 24fps native recording. It’s always been there but we’re able to notice it becuase of the higher res.

    “The sad fact is, your high resolution 1080p/24 system is simply showing you the picture as encoded on the Blu-ray disc in its authentic naked form. We just never saw it in our homes quite as naked before the advent of Blu-ray”

  122. ncaissie:

    LMAO Sure dude

  123. twilight:

    Godless,
    I just read your article. This article was written in November 2008. The better technology t.v.’s do not have hardly any of these issues. I am not trying to be disrespectable but again the issue is with your t.v. Your t.v. is more then likely not calibrated correctly or it doesn’t do a good job processing fast moving images. People don’t realize if a t.v. is not calibrated properly, it can cause all sorts of problems with picture quality.

  124. ncaissie:

    LOL pwned again Godless.

  125. ncaissie:

    With a reach like that you must be good a basketball. Or boxing lol

  126. CaptBirdman:

    Most people don’t understand BluRay movies are supposed to be 1080/24p (which most films are natively).

  127. Ivan_PSP:

    I just got this game from FileServ is 5.45 Gigabytes.

  128. oldschool1987:

    LOL! What’s all this about DVDs looking the same as BluRay!? LMFAO! Must have eye problems, the difference is like video compared to DVD. I have all the Lost on DVD and bought the BluRay complete set recently and the difference is massive. Same goes for all the Blu Rays I buy, DVD is not in the same league, don’t know what shit this it you’re on about.

    But tbh I don’t buy a BluRay disc unless it’s an action movie that would benefit from the HD treatment. I wouldn’t but something like Shawshank on BluRay.

  129. jojo29:

    Godless
    We have tackled this issue years ago…..with HH the dipshit….he made the same exact claim….then, he got schooled here by myself and a few others….now HH the dipshit no longer posts here….do not carry on his torch…

    As for the panning issue….newer tvs I believe have “dejuddering” features that reduce juddering during pan shots…

    Also, features such as ” smooth motion” (different companies call it different names, its the feature that makes movies appear like a live film) can actually cause more juddering AND cause artifacting…

    I have personally tested this as my tv( Sony KDS-55A3000, CNET best tv 2008), although a lil older has the option of turning said feature on or off, and notices the juddering and artifacting while it was on….turn it off, I lose that 120mhz live film effect, but I don’t get the juddering/artifacting…

    But to say dvd >br in th visual department is jus comical….

    Post that in those avs forums, which I’m a frequent poster in, and they will laugh you out of their forums..

    @roca
    Respect the avsforums, yes that thread godless posted was about the juddering issue that can happen, but trust me, in no way do they really believe dvd> br….avsforums would stll recommend the Ps3 as the best br out there overall<— keyword overall because they will point you.to the best player visually, which last time I asked wae an otto player..

  130. jojo29:

    @twlight
    Good job on letting godless know what’s up….proper calibration of your tv, as well knowledge of its features, is essential to gettig rid of these problems….

    Godless have you read your tvs manual??? Might want to do.that..

  131. twilight:

    Jojo,
    I calibrate all of my friends televisions. They were majorly blown away by the difference in picture quality when I finished the calibrations. People don’t realize that simple things like not having brightness and contrast set correctly can cause major problems with picture quality.

  132. jojo29:

    @twilight
    Dang if only you lived in the socal area….I do my best to calibrate my tv bu I think I could use some more tweaking

  133. Roca.:

    “newer tvs I believe have “dejuddering” features that reduce juddering during pan shots”

    good point jojo,
    my newer 120hz TV has this option as well.

  134. jojo29:

    “good point jojo,
    my newer 120hz TV has this option as well.”

    Thanks roca…im surprised this is even being brought up as an issue, as, i have personally never have read about it in the last couple years…not even on the AVSForums….i visit those forums quite often too..

    AVSForums
    Arstechnica
    Destructoid
    Anandtech (my favorite forum)
    Engadget
    Kotaku

    NEVER, EVER IGN, unless my bro links me a video…that place is a slum for advertisements and HUGELY biased ‘reviews’…if that is what they call paid advertisements nowadays…just look at the prime example of Halo 3 and Call of Duty…two of the MOST overhyped, UNDER PERFORMING games of all time….

    I mean, they are good games, but to garner near perfect scores….

  135. phranctoast:

    This is the reason I went with a DLP HDTV. LCD’s seem to have too much of that motion blur that occurs with panning and movement.

    oh and jojo.
    IGN can’t be nearly as bad as Destructoid. Their reviews are embarrassing.

    Read SOCOM 4 by both of them to have a better understanding.

  136. Roca.:

    Reviewers are not afraid to give Socom 4 low review scores because of the bad reputation of Confrotation, which I believe will hunt the franchise in the future and will always keep new comers having second thoughts about the IP.

    destructoid gave it a 3 but I pretty sure Socom 4 is much better than most of their 3-8 reviewed games

  137. dans303:

    I didn’t like the Socom 4 MP beta – it was soooo slow.

    I guess I’m just too used to twitchy COD.

  138. twilight:

    Jojo,
    Yeah, you’re too far away. Although, I wouldn’t mind visiting California one day.

  139. Roca.:

    @dans303
    Socom is about strategy and staying alive for as long as you can. It’s not like COD where you’re contantly dying are respawning.

    Socom 4 is getting critized because they turned Socom 4 into a more mainstream shooter. No you have health regen, respawn game, large scale maps, etc.

    Socom use to be about small team battles, each with one health bar for the entire round. It used to be intense whenever you were the only one alive in your team versus 4 others and were able to pull it off and win the round. Vitory dance were handy in those moments

    Name one other state where we are broke as fuck, while still maintaining the highest real estate prices, and people are still MOVING TO California!!

    Im a Californian for life though, so my opinion is proudly biased!

    @Twilight
    If you ever visit Cali let us know, we could have a blorge gathering for peeps that live here!

  142. CaptBirdman:

    “California is the BEST state in the…states ”

    You’re damned skippy. I’ll put Cali up against entire countries (it interestingly has an economy that places 9th of all COUNTRIES of the world. You read that right– if California was a country, it’d have the 9th most powerful economy in the world).

    California to the US is like the US to the world– yeah, you hate us, but you need us and wish you were like us ;)

  143. oldschool1987:

    I don’t wish I was like Americans at all lmfao! I love America, you are a very loyal country but I’m am so fucking proud of being British, I would not change that for the world.

    I hope that was sarcasm Bird lol.

  144. oldschool1987:

    And remember Britian was around thousands of years before America had a Government about 200 years ago. We don’t NEED any country, but we do owe America a lot and count of them sometimes. But we don’t NEED them to survive.

    You were probably being sarcastic but I just hate that sort of arrogance lol. If you were joking then ignore my last :p

  145. CaptBirdman:

    Nah. I said it in a joking way, but U.K. needs America. Every country does.

    America dictates foreign policy. Accept it or do not.

    “And remember Britian was around thousands of years before America had a Government about 200 years ago.

    Remember how America got that government…?

  146. oldschool1987:

    If America was toly disappear then Britain would survive. I think you’re putting far too much faith in how much we rely on them. America needs us as much as we them, but we don’t need each other to the point of collapsing if the other disappeared. Don’t be naïve.

    We don’t need America to survive as a country, we have survived for thousands of years by ourselves. America is still in its infantcy compared to us. I’m glad we have America on our side but to say we need them, full stop is ridiculous.

    And I do not want to be American like I already said. I respect Americans but to me being British is the way to be.

  147. oldschool1987:

    That was meant to say ‘to randomely disappear’ fucking phone lags.

  148. jojo29:

    @oldschool
    Just want to say I respect the UK, but, if the US were to disappear, you would quickly find the UK in quite the pickle, as a lot of countries would prob, most likely start to try and “take over the world” as, the leading world power, the US, would not be there..and that is the US true power, just by being arouns, no one wants to really fuck with us…..we’ve seen what happens when the US just sits on by….WW 1 and 2…meaning, we know what happens..the world does not fear the UK enough to jus sit there…..with the US, its scare enough to resort to terrorist attacks….

    Biased US pride or truth?

    Just want to say I respect the UK, but, if the US were to disappear, you would quickly find the UK in quite the pickle, as a lot of countries would prob, most likely start to try and “take over the world” as, the leading world power, the US, would not be there..and that is the US’ true power, just by being arouns, no one wants to really fuck with us…..we’ve seen what happens when the US just sits on by….WW 1 and 2…meaning, we know what happens..the world does not fear the UK enough to jus sit there…..with the US, its scared enough to resort to terrorist attacks but not attack directly all out..

    Biased US pride or truth?
    Either way, I’m glad to be a US citizen and glad we have the UK to help us out:) as I said, I respect and dig the UK, if there was no US id move there..

    Totally forgot about the economy…even when its bad cali still in the top 10 lol

    “Socom use to be about small team battles, each with one health bar for the entire round. It used to be intense whenever you were the only one alive in your team versus 4 others and were able to pull it off and win the round. Vitory dance were handy in those moments”
    That would be stupid. Who is going to sit around and wait for the game to be over? I wouldn’t play a game like that.

  152. ncaissie:

    “Name one other state where we are broke as fuck, while still maintaining the highest real estate prices, and people are still MOVING TO California!!”
    Talk about miss managed! I don’t get it. It is pretty pathetic really.

    True there are some countries who would try and start shit if America disappeared and we would find ourselves in a pickle …a big one. All I’m getting at is the UK has survived by itself for thousands of years without help. We’ve been invaded many, many times but we have always took back our country and we would again. We were a little island that owned half the world at 1 point lol. Just saying we need America but not the the point where we would perish with out them. Thats all I’m saying.

    Anyway jojo you put it in a much less biased way than Bird does, he sounds totally arrogant in how he words it.

  154. ncaissie:

    “being Canadian is the way to be.”
    Fixed.

  155. ncaissie:

    “we’ve seen what happens when the US just sits on by….WW 1 and 2…”
    LMFAO You thing you won those wars alone? Canada may not have much of a military right now but we did back then.

    “That would be stupid. Who is going to sit around and wait for the game to be over? I wouldn’t play a game like that”

    Gears and Rainbow 6 are like that. There a few modes in COD that are set up that way as well.

    It makes for a better game once you get used to it…and the way is not that long since each round is 5mins long (you can set it for less) and by the time you die the the wait time will most likely be less than 1.5 mins or 2 mins… Socom is not a run n gun game, so you dont run out like a retard and get killed within the firt 10 seconds of the round.

    “Totally forgot about the economy…even when its bad cali still in the top 10 lol”
    Only because of Hollywood and movie industry.

  158. ncaissie:

    “Gears and Rainbow 6 are like that. There a few modes in COD that are set up that way as well.”
    I don’t play them LOL

    LMAO

  160. ncaissie:

  161. oldschool1987:

    Still under our flag ncaissie lmao :p

    You pre ordered Portal 2? All my mates aint into that sort of game, they like their Fifa and Fight Nights, fuckers. Ill have to co-o with some random fucker or my Mrs who royally sucks at games.

    Oh bollocks.

  163. oldschool1987:

    Lol Bird you know its true. Don’t take offense, you’re an alright guy, I do like you sometimes but you’re very arrogant and always have to be right and will never ever change you stance on anything, no matter how many articles people provide to the contrary lol. But dw I don’t hate you because you’re not a dick most of the time ;)

    Dw I’m a dick a majority of the time pmsl

  164. ncaissie:

    Not a chance OS. no offense but I don’t support the monarchy.
    All this prince marriage shit pisses me off. I don’t believe any family is better than any other. I believe in gov. because they are elected by the people. It amazes me that people can believe one family is “royal” this day and age. Don’t take that the wrong way I just believe in equality.

  165. ncaissie:

    Not even sure I want portal 2. I don’t believe portal one was even a real game. So unless I see YouTube videos showing me a real game then I’ll wait for it to hit $5.

  166. oldschool1987:

    Lmao @ ncaissie! Seriously dude I agree with you 100%! The tourists adore the Royal Family more than the natives, they are just a tourist attraction that brings this country a lot of money. That’s it. I don’t care for the Royal Wedding, the only way it benefits me is because I get a day off work for it lmao. Anyway I don’t see the Prince coming to my wedding, so why should I care about his? :P

    I think the attraction of the RF is just because there is a lot of history with them. I done guard duties for Buck Palace and Tower of London a few years ago and fucking hated it! I didn’t join the Army to play statue for 2 hours at a time while foreign birds rubs themselves up against me to try and make me smile(which I did every time lmao).

    Dw ncaissie, you never offended me, I’m the 1st to admit the irrelevance of the RF as are most people in the country. Only the media make it a big deal.

  167. oldschool1987:

    And Portal 1 wasn’t really a real game, it was more of a thing they tried and just bundled it with the Orange Box for less risk to see how well it would be received, which was very well. I loved Portal 1. the videos, reviews and articles on Portal 2 are all very, very positive. You should at least give it a look pal, it might surprise you.

  168. Roca.:

    I wish I was royal :(

  169. Liquid:

    fuck the royal family

  170. oldschool1987:

    Fuck yourself, Liquid. Shame you got bullied out the Army for being a retard, hey?
