Has anyone got one yet then?

First impressions?

[retired_derek]

my guess would be no.

Though i wouldnt be surprised if Jakes shoots everybody to get one when it's released in the US.

Gizmondo have had quite a few thoughts on various aspects of it; how easy it has scratched, the controller, the interface, etc.

i was just watching the 1up show and from what they said a HDTV is near compulsary as while the games on the 360 still look good on a regular tv on the ps3 they just look bad in standard definition.

a good thing though is i think you can use the ps2 component cables so that is good i guess.

In what way exactly do they look bad Hovi?

Don't know in what way but one of them said when talking about ridge racer that it looked like a ps2 game.

Oh right. Well I would imagine the early games to be not that far off from the latest PS2 games.

Hopefully by the time we get the console over here the games will have improved.

I'm not too bothered about it not launching in the UK yet as all the launch titles aren't my cup of tea.
