What we want in the PS3

[ottoman]

Thought it might be fun to get everyones ideas as to what the PS3 should have and be able to do. What can I say (shrug) its a boring day at work!

To get the ball rolling:

It should have built in harddrive and ethernet adapter.

All ps3 games should be harddrive installable.

The browser screen should include the harddrive with some sort of front end similar to HDLoader.

PS3 memory cards shouldn't be needed as all save files could go on the harddrive

Should be backwards compatible with ps1 and ps2 games ( could have a "virtual ps1/ps2 memory card" on the harddrive)

Should be able to play dvd movies/VCD/SVCD/DivX/Xvid/MP3/JPG discs.

Any more suggestions?

Now we is talkin!!!

Maybe taking technology from the PSX unit to enable the unit to record tv progs onto the harddrive and pause live tv etc. I know that sony are plannin to make the ps3 a bit more multimedia but there ideas sound way ott. At the end of the day its a games machine but it doesn't hurt to have a few extras thrown in !

This would be my biggest hope as well!

Oh also the wireless remote lufc spoke of should support 4 players.

Able to surf the web from it.

I have 2 of the Logitech 2.4 GHz cordless PS2 controllers. They work flawless. Not a single problem. There more money then the other junk ones out there but are worth the extra.

I wouldnt do with out them..

The only thing I hate about cordless controllers is having to buy batteries. Now if those controllers had a rechargeable port on the ps3 then that would be nice.

I not havin a pop at u but does it really need to be able to surf the net? When theres a pc that can surf it in practically every house anyway. I admit on line gaming is a must but being able to surf the net too might be a bit unnecessary.

Have just recieved a bad reputation point for being a "Hater"??!! If the above comment came over as a bit brash I appologise Sped. Was not intention to offend. Was just thinking from a view of keeping ps3 unit price down. Appols to whoever it is who thinks I'm a hater!

Yeah you’re right it would just be cool if it did. You see I'm a lazy ass and if I’m sitting on the couch and see a add with a .com info it would be cool to just flip on the console and there it is with out having to get off my ass and go in the other room....not needed though your totally right.
