do PS3 or XBOX 360 support java?
??? if so what type MS or JSE , Java3D or JOGL and what version
1.5.0 , 1.60 and so on
the xbox 360 runs java tho it isn’t officially “supported”.
No one knows about the ps3, although the bluray specs required a java vm. probably requires JSR 927
i forgot about blue-ray yes maby i could right a game in java and hack the JVM.
thanks so you can run java software on them if you tried
ps3 will come with linux installed, so i guess it won’t be hard to install a jre
??? ??? ???
what the???
:o :o :o are you joking i thought the PS3 was a gaming console like PSP GBA XBOX XBOX 360 PS2 and Nintendo game cube how can it run linux :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :oare you telling the truth
Well, you could get linux for ps2. However, it wasn’t as useful as all that. For instance you couldn’t develop discs that would run on normal ps2’s with it.
It does look like linux will be available for ps3. Whether it comes as default probably depends on whether a harddisk is a standard fit (I haven’t really been following this). Anyway take a look at this thread.

/Edit - After reading the entirety of that thread, the consensus was that the screenshot wasn’t ps3 linux. However there’s certainly plenty of interesting background discussion in there (& some trolling)

nope not joking only what i’ve read, besides consoles are starting to shift from just gaming devices to more like a media center!
if ps3 will have linux so maybe it will be posible to develop jogl for ps3 , am i right?
also ps3 will be much more related to internet tech so probably it will be no problem to ps3 user to download jre from net…
i am also thinking if for example mozilla browser will be available for ps3 since it gecko engine is used in many web browsers on many systems and also linux
does anyone know if it will be possible to install typical linux java runtime (available on java.sun.com) on ps3 linux version ???
-> becouse i think that ps3 linux and linux for pc will be two difrent systems, well i do not know but if those cheanges will not be so big maybe sun will be intrested in creating special ps3 jre version (based on pc jre linux version)
i think that Ken Kutaragi has really good idea in preinstalling linux on ps3 hdd, becouse the life cycle of console is about 5 years, in that time ps3 users with linux will be able to install programs that we are using in our pc’s , like for example something like office etc, ps3 will have usb so to conect ps3 with printer will not be a problem, maybe sony taget ps3 not only as gaming console/media center but as a general main computer device at home, well sony in that way probably will be able to earn more $$$, well
who knows what is inside Kutaragi head, everything can still cheange…
also when i was reading specifications of ps3 and xbox i was thinking that sony if it has still not started production of ps3 , could install more ram , better graphic chip etc in their product since they did not even started masive production of ps3. In that way they could win on start with microsoft xbox 360 which specification can not cheange since it is on market now.
