That dude Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 Okay, sorry. I should probably post abit less and make my posts a bit more meningful.
Retro_Link Posted October 11, 2007 Posted October 11, 2007 decided on the 60gig version with resistance and heavely sword from amazon for 350 quid, makes sense as I'd want those games anyway so this way I get a bigger hard drive and backwards compat for free. I'm still in Canada on holiday though so I won't be able to pick it up until a week on Sunday!Just so you know you can get the same deal from hmv.co.uk atm, with a blueray aswell! http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=280;-1;-1;-1&sku=529347 There are also a few 40gb deals aswell, http://www.hmv.co.uk/hmvweb/displayProductDetails.do?ctx=12;6;82;-1&sku=722250
Owen Posted October 12, 2007 Posted October 12, 2007 Ratchet and Clank is by far the best PS3 game, hands-down. The demo is excellent! One thing it missed? Rumble...but as thats coming soon, it's ok for now!

Guest dynastygal Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 PS2 rawks. My top console. Got about 60 or so games for it. Best series on it are the Tony Hawks, Dynasty Warriors, Kingdom Hearts, Kessen, .Hack, GTA series, imo. Also has some gems like Broken Sword Sleeping Dragon, Whiplash, Star Ocean, DQ8, Kessen 2, and so on.
Owen Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 The Eye Of Judgment gets a very good 8.0 from IGN. I've never got into card games, but i'm going for this...looks very interesting. I played the Ratchet demo again yesterday, and it still rocked! EDIT: Also forgot to say that Folklore is amazing so far, extremely under-rated and some of the reviews have been WAY to harsh on it. It's like Zelda, but an extremely deep and twisting story-line. Got a PS3? I suggest you give this one a try!
Ashley Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Urgh no more PS3 versions gorram it. Whats with Sony bringing out seven hundred versions of their consoles? Im looking at you PSP.
Triple_C Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Was just in game and all the games were fairly reasonably priced, saw four games I may want: Sega Mega Drive Collection Destroy All Humans 2 Resident Evil 4 GTA Vice City Stories What do y'all think?
Guest dynastygal Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Defo get SMD collection...although I think they upped the price since I bought it from there for £12.99. And Destroy All Humans 2 is cool, too. I hear Resi Evil is better on the cube though. Not play GTA Vice City Stories, so can't comment.
Hero-of-Time Posted October 13, 2007 Posted October 13, 2007 Was just in game and all the games were fairly reasonably priced, saw four games I may want:Sega Mega Drive Collection Destroy All Humans 2 Resident Evil 4 GTA Vice City Stories What do y'all think? Stick with Resident Evil 4. I loved the PS2 to bits as it had some amazing games on it but it also had a massive amount of tripe. I can see this happening with the Wii aswell.
Ant-Shimmin Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Can the PS3 play PS1 Games? [/End A Question which is obvious to your eyes but not mine]
AshMat Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 Can the PS3 play PS1 Games? [/End A Question which is obvious to your eyes but not mine] Some, not all. There's a list, i couldn't find it..
Triple_C Posted October 14, 2007 Posted October 14, 2007 I have a GameCube should I buy Resi for it then? (GC version is around 15 quid, are the 3 quidsicles worth it?) I also want to experience some sega lurve, and SMD is only 12.99. Thanks
Hero-of-Time Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 So, does anyone want to take a guess on what the Capcom annoucement will be for the PS3 this week? If you head over to here http://www.capcom-unity.com/ and look at the Prepare Yourself feature they have a countdown to the annoucement.
Pit-Jr Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 So, does anyone want to take a guess on what the Capcom annoucement will be for the PS3 this week? If you head over to here http://www.capcom-unity.com/ and look at the Prepare Yourself feature they have a countdown to the annoucement. Is it definately PS3 related? Im guessing Street Fighter 4
That Guy Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 It's meant to have slightly better graphics and control on the Gamecube, so I'd get that one. Although you may miss the added content the PS2 got.
gmac Posted October 15, 2007 Posted October 15, 2007 Global Defence Force is pretty damn good, gamecentral bigged it up a couple of months back
Hero-of-Time Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Is it definately PS3 related? Im guessing Street Fighter 4 Well they said that PS fans will be very happy so everyone is assuming its PS3 related. Less than 24 hours to go now then..... Also Capcom announced a new Bionic Commando game for the PS3 and 360 today. I was a MASSIVE fan of the NES version so im well happy with this annoucement.
Owen Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 It's a 'Lost Planet' sequel on PS3, thats my guess.
Hero-of-Time Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Anyone else read about the rumours of Resistance 2 yesterday on Kotaku? They said its slated for next Christmas period and the game will be set in America this time with Nathan Hale set to make an apperance in some shape or form. Im hoping this is true as I LOVED the 1st game, especially getting the skill points and it was one of the few games I played online for fun rather than trying to achieve something. Its not that far fetched this rumour as Insomniac has pretty much finished with the PS3 version of Ratchet and Clank ( cant wait ) so it makes sense that they would go back to this series as it is one of the biggest PS3 hits. Granted the PS3 hasnt got many but still...
Dante Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 According to GamesIndustry.biz, the introduction of the new 40GB PlayStation 3 and the price drop on the 60GB bundle has increased sales by 178% in the UK. Currently the PS3 is standing at #3, just behind the Nintendo DS and Nintendo Wii. With Sony now offering a cheaper 40GB PlayStation 3 for GBP 299, consumers with shallow pockets are now picking up the system. However, this that is not the only move the company has made. As previously reported, Sony has also dropped the price on the 60GB model to GBP 349 and bundled 2 free first party games with the console.

Falcon_BlizZACK Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 ...So I got a PS3 yesterday...And I am currently packaging it to try and return (if not) sale it at CEX and lose £100! IMHO, this console is disgusting...in just about everything. They have turned a gaming device into some entertainment powerhouse that I do not find necessary... My first impression was 'ugh!'...The amount of time it takes to download demos...etc...everything just feels like loading, loading, loading! When yo are accustomed to the Wii this just feels ...disgusting. This word also reflects upon its appearance; a big chunk of shiny plastic-metal that just stands out and shifts all focus to it like an elephant in a room. I'm quite 'rich', and was swayed by the 60gb £349.99 price tag, so I naturally had to see how I felt with it in my home...Im glad I got that out of the way. To be honest, not even MGS4 and FF13 will really make me look back at the PS3 unless 'something' changes (which I do not see that happening anytime soon)...I also bought a PS3 to play the games I missed on PS2, like FF12, which looks very jaggy and unappealling graphically (which was one of its core points) with the software emulation. I just felt like airing this out right here right now in a quick reply. I think my how powered laptop and Wii are the gaming essentials for me.
