Retro_Link Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Cheers guys! I'm in no rush to get a second controller, so I'll probably follow your advice @Aimless and wait and see if I see any offers. But DS3 it is then! May also look at getting a steering wheel at some stage for F1 2011 and maybe GT5. Probably will get a remote, as I think it's probs something everyone will be more comfortable using if they want to watch a Blu-Ray. So that's it then!

Retro_Link Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 (edited) Before you do: What TV do you have?It's actually a Sony TV. Edited November 24, 2011 by Retro_Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 It's actually a Sony TV. Check to see if it has Bravia Sync - it will allow control of supported devices over HDMI with your TV's remote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TV remote obviously doesn't have buttons like play and pause etc... so would other buttons on the remote potentially double up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just checking as I was looking for a TV remote and accidentally discovered the feature on my Panasonic TV (and on top of that, my Android phone can control my TV, which controls my PS3).

MadDog Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 When you getting F1?! Looking forward to the online races that hopefully happen. Me and will had a couple of races on our co-op career, it was really good fun. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im just playing Mass Effect 2 through for the first time and its fast becoming one of my favourite games. Have you played the first one?I was wondering what it would be like going straight into the second game. In many respects it's great because the gameplay/menu's was vastly improved so it's a much more enjoyable game, but just wondered if it mattered missing that part of the story?

Happenstance Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I played a bit of the first one when I had my first 360 but not nearly enough to get a sense of story. With the PS3 version of 2 you get an interactive comic story with it that explains what happened in the first game and allows you to make some key decisions in it that will come up again in 2.

Uncharted is great, but you will have it finished in no time (unless you care to take up multiplayer). Skyrim has the combination of sheer awesome and length too. Demon's Souls and Dark Souls are worth checking out too, amazing titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Add Saints Row 3 to that list (because you also get Saints Row 2 with it free, which is spectacular). Also, if you buy Assassin's Creed: Revelation you get the first Assassin's Creed free and discounts on the other two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you check out the Little Big Planet games, brilliant and great concept with an actual community unlike most games nowadays. Since you have F1 2011 I would also put GT5 up there. Best racing game by miles. Wipeout and Motorstorm are also fun games. MGS4 needs no explanation. Yakuza, 3d dot heroes, Valyria chronicles, flower, etc. But yeah take your time. Have fun with the systems media stuff too. Edited November 26, 2011 by Choze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's one game he should not get first - at least for the PS3 - it's Skyrim. By the time a GOTY edition containing all kinds of DLCs has been released, these issues might have been fixed, too.

Little Big Planet I'm just not sure about, I see it being way to time consuming to come up with anything vaguely decent. Yeah Motorstorm looks pretty fun, which is the best of the three? Not a fan of Metal Gear, and always preferred F-Zero to Wipeout. Ah yeah, Flower looks really interesting... and there's that new one a bit like it set in a desert?
