Looks pretty nice although I don't like it being exclusive to BB.

Dont you need something extra?
Probably USB 3 in order to pull 60 fps 1080p.
Also lack of mention of PS3 probably means it's now HDMI only. Too bad. The current Elgato is decent at capturing retro consoles.
You can capture PS3 over HDMI just fine if you have a HDCP stripper. But of course they're not allowed to say that.

If it can do Wii U I'm sure it can do PS3. You probably just need an HDMI splitter and be good to go.

Is that what 1080p/60FPS capture devices usually go for? I remember a number of people in the previous topic were saying there's no chance it'll be 1080/60 at a decent price. Seems pretty nice though but I don't know a ton about streaming. I might get into it sometime.

Probably being able to stream independently. Look at all the recent Twitch fuss.
The native streaming quality is pretty bad on PS4 at least. I'd rather use a capture card.

I think what's more important is Tales of Xillia 2 is available Tuesday.

If it comes with the cable that let's me stream composite/component-based consoles, I'm in.

Figured as much. Price was what was about expected to (was figuring somewhere around 160-180).
Disappointed about the abandonment of a component option, even if it was an adapter like the U3. Still want to see what they have going for them.

All the extra capability streaming from a PC would give.
Time exclusive with retailer exclusive cables?
On a serious note, this is pretty huge good. Not sure because it was DSP..but he bought multiple devices and tried different software and they all had problems. Either it wasn't 60fps, it wouldn't work with some games, or the editing software didn't work.

Well, they could order it online from Best Buy's website.
Just sayin'...
Since those streams are limited to 720p/30fps, this does have some important advantages to consider.
Same... old model is still pretty good from what I've heard.

I'm interested, if it has advantages over the AverMedia Extreme U3 Cap will change into this new product.

Keep in mind that the PS4 and XBO's streaming capability is not flexible for a full blown stream production. If you want to use overlays, etc, having a good capture device is still necessary.
Yes. Sony has not revisited this with a firmware patch ala the PS4.
If they're not advertising PS3, then there's likely no component-in option. That would suck.

Frankly the customization options and service choice on them suck and the quality is pretty shitty. I capture through the previous Elgato because of the quality I mean on the PS4 it blocks your dashboard and trophy notifications from view which just looks horrible and I can't stream to hitbox straight from either too.

Because the quality is way better.

It is but I imagine it'll have a special cable for PS3 capture like the previous Elgato or people will just have to buy a splitter.
no they could of used Avermedia's to stream and record

Ahh, was about to post this in the existing elgato reveal thread. 3 days more for the official reveal I guess. I believe they must have gone for "GCHD60" since Avermedia has a model named GCHD. Also, I think once other well known makers like Avermedia, Blackmagic, Hauppaugue start releasing their revision of a 1080p60 external capture solution, this trend of every new product being listed at an MSRP of "$179.99" will drop to maybe $150. It will eventually happen. Same thing happened when the HD PVR burst into the scene and when Blackmagic followed with Intensity Shuttle, they had to drop down to $179.99 from $199.99.
Yes, still needs either a stripper or have to use component HD for capture/stream. All PS3's are HDCP compliant. Releasing a product that will strip HDCP at default maybe illegal for the maker. Can happen if SONY does indeed release a new firmware removing it, like they did for the PS4, but highly unlikely given the where we are in the PS3's lifecycle.

Yeah I just need to know if I can play through the capture software with minimal lag and I'm all over it otherwise I'll go for the extremecap u3.
I stream on WiiU now with current Elgato Game Capture HD this is nothing new for WiiU.

If you can output the audio over the HDMI it would record it just fine.

The only reason it wouldn't be able to capture it is if you're outputting to headset only just like other capture devices.

I'll upgrade from my current Elgato. Can't wait!
For PS3 recording, you'll need an HDMI splitter.
