How can PS3 be made better?

Its obviously a common thought in this forum that PS3 could be much better, same as its equally common to note that it seems that FPS have a modern day "legal" requirement to be mostly gray, brown or terracotta.

Given that exclusive PS3 or Xbox 360 games are becoming fewer (I still really want to play Heavy Rain), all that this indicates to me is that PS3 is not currently hugely different to Xbox360 in terms of selection.

So this leads me to ask the question. Graphics aside, how do you think the PS3 can be improved? (i.e. what would you expect from PS3?)

I think Home could do with more variety. It's simply boring as is.

As for the online itself? I have no complaints.

By not being made at all! ZING!
Seriously, I don't own a PS3, but I'm considering buying one. One of the major setbacks for me is, well, the games. The multiplatformers I already own for the PC or 360, and I feel like a few exclusives and a few DLC games won't be enough justification for a $300 console. If better PS3 exclusive games came out, I feel like I'd be more inclined to get one.

Objectively, I think you answered 99% of the forum's answer.

What I'd expect from a PS3? Goddamn backwards compatibility, that's what. But it was not to be, and Sony have already announced that the whole concept went down the crapper forever and ever.

More, better exclusives, or more reason to buy a PS3-integrated multiplatform game (perhaps exclusive features or something). Until then, I'm deeming the PS3 as a gaming platform almost completely useless.

I think that the PS3 is at the peak of what's possible of a console right now, and I'm trying to say that with as little flamebait as possible. I'd like to see more games come out on it, since the 360 walls at Gamestop always seem like they're twice as big as the PS3 rack

The PS3 would completely 100% dominate the market if it was cheaper.
That's what it all boils down to, anyway! The reason that the 360 has a better online is ONLY because more people can afford to buy an xbox... that, AND it comes with a mic. So if the Ps3 threw in a mic and lowered it's price another 50 dollars, it would be the Jesus-Box.

Seriously, I don't have any problems with mine. It's better than my 360. It honestly, truly is. But I also have small hands. So...

>Cheaper
>Mic Included
>Different Sized controllers for those of you with big-clunky-bear-hands.

That ought to make the PS3 the number one system ever.

It's not going to happen. I hope you enjoy the Final Fantasy 6 remake, Final Fantasy 8 remake, Final Fantasy 7: Dirge of Cerberus remake, and Crisis Core PS3 port coming in the near future!

In case if your a little slow, I was joking.

I think if they could improve their online service to LIVE quality and keep it free, they'd get a big advantage.

What's sad is that there's a 75% chance of that being true.

Seriously, I think it's better that Mics aren't included when you buy the system. It really cracks down on the screaming/music playing tards everyone talks about on LIVE.

An improvement?... Because I know you can buy keyboards and a mouse to use for your PS3, I doubt you can enable their use during an FPS game. That would be an excellent addition.

release more classic PS1 games to download, instead of pointless disney games that no ones heard of. or even better, PS2 games on PSN

A better controller is my only complaint. Really it's just the marshmallow like shoulder buttons and the insensitive thumbsticks. I'd very happily use a 360 controller to play my PS3.
