PlayStation 3 Console Discussion

Recommended Posts

Demon's Souls to me was a revelation. To me it almost represented the underside of an ancient rock, for no discernible reason it reminded me of text adventures.

 

Text adventures are the way forward, they just need that better level of interactivity. Can't defeat good writing.

 

In fact online gaming has been this generation's shock really. It's close to being seamless and it's a helluva lot of fun and way more accessible than before.

 

Epic lulz was redefined by Demon's Souls. Nothing like standing in low health with equipment that quadrupled your attack. One hit KO ftw.

Price drop incoming.

 

Sony will announce a price drop for the PlayStation 3 at gamescom in August, according to a report.

 

Trade insiders told MCV the PS3 RRP will drop to £199.99, with some shops prepared to go as low as £179.99.

 

The 160GB Slim PS3 model currently carries a retail price of £249.99, but you can pick it up for around £200.

 

Analyst Nick Parker told MCV: "£199.99 makes sense as it keeps Sony's options open for another drop, but they could be more aggressive.

 

"Microsoft wants to be number one but I expect it is adopting a 'wait and see' approach with possible new value-added deals on Kinect."

I wanted a new one since my current phat is really really loud. Really puts me off games. This is a good thing but now I have to wait 2 months :(

That's the worst thing you could possibly get a beta for. Hopefully you get what I mean by that.

not a fan of their games? I personally can't wait love their games and love that they are trying to deliver a totally different kind of multiplayer experience that isn't the usual: kill, level up, unlock perks, talk to arseholes, mute arseholes, die.

No, in the sense that by playing a beta for it you're ruining the first full experience once that download has been made.

 

And you know you're going to download it regardless.

meh I don't think so from what I've played the sense of wonderment I've felt will still exist when its released for the moments I've not experienced yet. Just like it continually does in Flower and to a lesser extent Flow.
