![]() ![]() You seem to be leaning towards a PS3 and that's fine, don't let the fact that you haven't got a HDTV put you off, both consoles work fine on SDTVs. It doesn't make sense to do it to games because why would anyone want to stop you copying a direct gameplay stream? If HDCP isn't available, a Blu-ray or whatever HD content gets downscaled to SD IF the publisher demands it, but as of yet I don't think a single title released yet actually does this (although a few are due out soon) and even at that, it's just Blu-ray titles that are affected. HDCP doesn't just STOP content from being displayed, the whole point of HDCP is to stop people copying films by directly copying the source output. That's complete misinformation right there. PS3 doesnt have a VGA lead also CRT monitors are Analogue only therefore dont support HDCP so all you would get out of the PS3 is a black screen since it requires HDCP to display anything. That may be one to consider but honestly as above, I'd still go the PS3 if in the long run it will have the franchises you want. Duno about the US but I imagine the 360 is still attainable for alot less. XBox is a fair bit cheaper, at least in Aus where you can get them retail for starting at half as much as a PS3. I guess alot of people think Live is better than PSN too but again, that will mean nothing to you if the games you want aren't on the XBox anyway.Įdit: Actually theres one other difference that could be major besides the games + bluray + online services and thats cost. Seriously besides game lineup theres nothing huge feature wise besides maybe the Blu Ray differentiating the consoles. I personally think the XBox has the much stronger lineup but for you the PS is the way to go. Personally, I say go with the one that has the games you want and if thats the PS3 then thats the one to get. PS3 has bluray too but that'll be a waste for the time being I guess if you can't run anything in HD anyway. Well either console will work on the SD tv just as well as one another.
