well, crap i'm not sure if i can post it here? but, here goes...

well, all you guys know that metal gear solid 4 just came out and i've been playing it intensively and i must say it's great. but, something that cuaght my eye was all the apple products in this game lol....i mean there are ipods, mbps, imacs,hell acd's are even there lol but, i think its badass advertisement for them.

edit: something that i found very interesting was the ipod. You're able to pick a song from the playlist and it will play while you're moving around freely in the game.

Yes, I noticed some ACD's in a clip with Otocon. I really wish I had a ps3. I might get one mainly because of MGS4....and blu ray. How is blu ray? Worth getting the PS3 for?

Well, there is a MGS4 topic in Console Games but I guess this is Games+Apple so... whatever. Here goes. Here's some pics I took with my iPhone:
Mac Pro (http://skitch.com/spyker3292/pwmd/mgs4-2)
Macbook Pro+2 Displays+iSight (I think) (http://skitch.com/spyker3292/pwkh/mgs4)

Well, I personally enjoy my ps3. I swapped the hdd out with a bigger one. and now use it as my media center. as for blu-ray i enjoy it. is it worth it for just that? well, i guess i'd say yeah. and they are releasing lots of blurays weekly.

More likely than not it's a stab at Microsoft. Though as far as I know there are Konami games on the 360 so I wonder if it'll impact their relationship.

^ Your thinking too much and giving too much credence to conspiracy theories. ;)

It's just product placement. Period. The only motive is €£$

Do you think movies that advertise coca cola, have an ulterior motive to dig at pepsi and vice versa ?

Do you think those vodafone hoardings on some football grounds are because secretly footballers hate O2 ?

Not at all....

Its just advertising............

The PS3 Blu-ray is totally worth it. Standalone players cost more than the PS3, at least they did. I haven't bought MGS4 yet though...

This game is the most polished game of the next gen. I have all 3 new systems and ps3 is the best bang for the buck. Blueray is amazing. Linux on the ps3 is great. Ps3 is better then apple tv for a media center.

^I've got all three as well. IMO:

360: best online play
PS3: best graphics + blu ray (well worth the money)
Wii: most entertaining
