Sledgstone 8,672 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 Congrats on securing your PS3! What games are you going to pick up over the next couple months? And are you going to buy any blueray movies to test out the quality of the player? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hell_Cat_18 1,359 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 You know, the PS3 isn't that bad of deal with having the Blueray and all. Around here Blueray players just by themselves are running $900 and up. I really want to see one in action though...I've "heard" they're amazing.

Strider Hiryu 2,704 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 I've heard mixed feelings about the PS3 from people who were lucky enough to get one and it's making me wonder. For one it's not fully backwards compatible like it was supposed to be (people are having problems playing PS2 games on it), it likes to overheat itself, etc. I'm beginning to think my idea of waiting for one was a good one. Have to wait and see what others say about it first (and get DX's impression of it). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GundamFreakX 836 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 Yeah, I'll judge after our wonderful DX gets his hand around it and makes the call. I didn't want to be any of the suckers taht waited in that line with the smashmyps3.com ppl. It was a waste of time, like seeing the Borat movie.

Moon Doggie 220 Report post Posted November 19, 2006 I'm still going to get me one (even though I have to pay half as an agreement to my mum) I don't know if it's worth it, by the time I get enough to pay half there is probably going to be some other new game thingy out *cries*.

Have to wait and see what others say about it first (and get DX's impression of it). Indeed the PS3 has had reported overheating issues... however all of these that I have read, had the PS3 in a cramp or enclosed area. I have not seen any major reports from any of the big sites however. And while that is an issue, i don't plan on keeping mine in an inclosed area anyways. As far as blueray goes, I really dont care too much for the movies, my real interest is the data transfer and capacities of the discs. 2-3 disc games can now easily fit into one with room to spare. The size of actual games can spread to a whole new level. As for games. Once i get my tracking number im going to gamestop to pick up Resistance, a second controller, and perhaps another game. over the course of the next 6-10 months i plan on getting: Sonic MGS4 Assassin's Creed Dark Sector Lair Heavenly Sword Warhawk Armored Core 4 Ratchet & Clank Gradius PS3 And in between that I must obtain a Wii before May when Smash Bros. Brawl comes out... other than that all i want for it currently is Zelda and Mario Galaxy. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pchan 5,162 Report post Posted November 20, 2006 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/6069082.stm ^ interesting information on some of your interaction based net services, and also a list of what titles would be available with the launch.

DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted December 1, 2006 Yeah I know, and they all pretty much suck too after the sega/snes era. I figured since they teamed up with namco they would put out a superior product, but i guess it hasn't happened yet. From what I read, the game is pretty buggy. I'm pretty disappointed.

Wraith1969 100 Report post Posted December 27, 2006 Has anyone played NFS Carbon and if you have, is it worth buying? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeathscytheX 9,732 Report post Posted December 27, 2006 NFS stopped being worth anything when Carbon started in my opinion. It peaked at NFS 3: Hot Pursuit. I use to be an avid NFS fan. Quote GET A NEW FUNK ON BEFORE YOU GET DUMPED ON! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
