I was thinking about picking one up. One store had'em for $350. Fairly cheap by comparison, huh?

**SBR Lou** · 11-24-07, 03:22 PM

I've read some crappy reviews on games I like to play, like Madden. I have a nice video card on my computer so I didn't see any reason to switch over.

**rjt721** · 11-24-07, 03:44 PM

Fight Night is pretty sweet. I think it's down to like 30 bucks now too.

**biggamer3** · 11-24-07, 06:41 PM

Have the 360 and PS3, Call of Duty 4 is the bomb and i dont ordinarily like FPS'ers

GTA IV is the obvious game we are all waiting for

**SBR Lou** · 11-24-07, 06:47 PM

Can one of you guys who have a decent computer gaming rig compare the graphics from your ps3 to your PC?

**Illusion** · 11-24-07, 07:04 PM

How well did the dvd player work for you? My brother in-law had to return his because the system would crash halfway through a movie.

**louisvillekid** · 11-24-07, 07:18 PM

i've been debating getting one, i've heard about a bunch of problems with them. but about the games, when i do get one , the first i would get for me, is the new Ratchet and Clank game, i got all 3 from PS2, i loved those games. i've always liked platform games. i've never been good at the war games or first-person shooting games. i like cartoonish games where you go from level to level and fight bosses and collect more weapons along the way. i have all 3 of the Jax games also. i don't know there just fun to me.

Worked like a charm. Blu-Rays and regular DVDs.

Was it one of the older systems?

The graphics compare.

But remember, the PS3 displays the games in 1080p. I use to be a gamer on the PC, but I move strictly to laptop for now and really don't want to fill it up with games.

If you do buy one, I would suggest Circuit City. Because they give a warranty option. 2 years, but its better then the rest, which offer none.

It was a newer generation model. He bought it like six weeks ago. He ended up going with the XBOX 360 instead.

80GB or 60GB? I know they phased out the 60's. They are going with the 80GB and 40GB's.

I haven't had one problem yet.

**jjgold** · 11-24-07, 09:39 PM

I think more hardcore gamers go with xbox and of course pc

I play tiger woods on pc and I think it is better than any console

I know it, it has a removable hard drive that you can upgrade. If I ever fill up the 80GB, then I will look into upgrading it.

**pico** · 11-25-07, 01:40 AM

i got one when it was 700...end up only play pacman when i am all stoned.

**hanco21** · 11-25-07, 02:33 AM

Tiger Woods is fun online, also like Oblivion and The Godfather.

**remmy358** · 11-25-07, 10:14 AM

assassin's creed is pretty sick.

also get nba2k8 if you're into basketball.

**SBR Lou** · 11-25-07, 12:19 PM

I always get an urge around Christmas to regress and buy the latest console. I was a video game junkie for so long, and still play occasionally on PC. The last time I'd seen playstation graphics though I wasn't impressed at all.

The one reason I'm considering this is because if its designed to match a resolution of my HDTV, then that's pretty cool, and I'd like to get some more use out of my TV. The Blu-ray stuff sounds cool too.

**5 star bomb** · 01-13-08, 03:29 AM

OT: Playstation 3 Online... Who plays?

I am going to go out and buy a PS3 tomorrow and some games. I dont get into fighting games or any of that really most all sports games is I play. Any recommendation on which sports games are the best? Obviously Madden for football but how about basketball and baseball? And do any of you play online? Im going to be hooking that up online so if any of you want to get schooled just let me know

The game I mostly play online is Call of Duty 4. I haven't bought any sports games yet, but you can't go wrong with any of the EA games. I do however got Need for Speed: Pro Street, I just haven't played online yet.

Anyone out there that plays COD4? If so, what is your handle on there?

**JBC77** · 01-13-08, 03:45 AM

Call of Duty 4 is sick. I'm on the 360 though. What a great game.

**5 star bomb** · 01-13-08, 03:48 AM

Yeah I have seen buddies playing Call Of Duty 4, that game looks amazing.

**707782** · 01-13-08, 04:51 AM

No console systems can beat my computer setups, I'm telling ya.

Graphic is better, sound is awesome, with a 24 in Samsung LCD or hook it up to my HDTV, it blows them out.

it's expensive, but you need the pc anyway.

**Louisvillekid1** · 01-13-08, 08:38 AM

Xbox 360 for me

**gridiron guru** · 01-13-08, 04:43 PM

PS2 for me......PS3 cost too much

**jjgold** · 01-13-08, 04:47 PM

360 is better for gaming

PC compared to consoles=very little diffeence and pc plays faster

Compare like Tiger Woods on console to PC and the PC version is faster.

Good analysis JJ. There's a reason every time u see the ps3 marketed, it's marketed as a "blu ray" player instead of a gaming console

I have a ps3 and i think it is awesome.
i love it.
my bro says the best game ever for it is warhawk. too hard for me, i get bored with it.
Give me the sims anyday.

**purecarnagge** · 01-14-08, 08:45 PM

I've yet to see a good basketball game on any console. It just aint the same...they make it impossible to play good defense...

**Nismo** · 01-15-08, 01:44 AM

Call of Duty 4 is the only game I play.

**eidolon** · 01-15-08, 02:01 AM

Dont get ghost recon, looks like it came out 5 years ago.
Ninja Gaidon is really good. But you can't play against other people and obviosly there is no online mode.

Madden is always good, but to tell you the truth, this years Madden is kind of weak compared to last years.

I've heard assasins creed and warhawk are good.

Also there is some game coming out on Feb. 2nd, but I forgot the name of it.

Eh I like College Hoops 2k8 for Xbox 360... its pretty good

I hate the NBA games (Mainly all EA basketball games) because they put too much one-on-one stuff in there, you have 40 different controls to do a cross over or a spin

**5 star bomb** · 02-01-08, 03:58 PM

Hey guys what is the best NHL game for PS3? Thanks
