Oxigen_Waste Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 Yeah but fuck, Mass Effect. Really, now that the PS3 has a nice back catalog to go with the promise of future games, I don't think I can manage with just one. Alot of things are multiplat and I'll probably still get most on 360 because most of my friends are 360'ers, but missing out on LBP, Uncharted etc already, and then with Last Guardian and Gran Turismo on the way soon, I gotta have both Everything that's multiplat, I'll get for the 360 too, simply because I preffer it. And the gamepad is so much better than the Dual Shock. I'm just saying, this whole consoloe war is pretty much becoming senseless, they're pretty much the same now.

I'm just saying, this whole consoloe war is pretty much becoming senseless, they're pretty much the same now. Indeed, plus if you're going to spend between 25 - 50 hours playing a game then you want to be using a comfortable control pad really... now the PS3 pad is useable of course, otherwise I wouldn't have played through MGS4 on the machine but the 360 pad is just better in nearly every single respect, so for multi-format games, it's a no-brainer.
Cube Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 The controller is actually a very big point for me. My hands are simply the wrong shape for the DualShock.
Wesley Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I'm glad other people have said it. I was afraid to, sounds too much like I'm trying to troll. But the point is that I want MW2, to play online, but I don't have Gold. Yet I'd still rather pay for Gold and then the game than just pick it up for the PS3. All because of the controller.
Babooo Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I don't really have any problems with the dualshock....in some ways i even prefer it to the 360 controller.....mainly for FIFA/PES i think....i've been so used to playing footy games on my old ps2 that playing with a 360 controller feels a bit wierd. But its only a minor gripe, not a major one. P.S Would love to get the PS3 slim. MGS4/Uncharted/LBP etc but mainly MGS4.
ThePigMarcher Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I'm looking everywhere for a new game (Tales of Vesperia is out of stock everywhere, did it get a recall?) Tell me about it, I can't seem to find this game anywhere either and I really don't want to resort to ebay.
Esequiel Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Tell me about it, I can't seem to find this game anywhere either and I really don't want to resort to ebay. 4 for £20 in blockbuster ^^
ThePigMarcher Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 4 for £20 in blockbuster ^^ I think someone must be having me on. Even so, my local Blockbuster is lame and hardly ever has anything in there. Anyway, looks like shopto have had a few in today at £35, managed to just grab myself a copy (hopefully anyway, as the site was showing last few copies).
Esequiel Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Yep your right, just checked and it was tales of symphonia >.> Sorry
ThePigMarcher Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Yep your right, just checked and it was tales of symphonia >.> Sorry That makes more sense. Cheers anyway .
S.C.G Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Yep your right, just checked and it was tales of symphonia >.> Sorry Even so... Tales of Symphonia for £5 is a steal!
Pantsu Man! Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 I really like the Mass Effect helmet you can buy for your Avatar. It's a shame I just haven't played the game far enough to get properly into it. Anyone else read about all these Madcatz preripherals for Modern Warfare 2? I like the sound of the two extra buttons on the back of the controller, aswell as the throat microphones.
Ganepark32 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Anyone else tried the Section 8 demo? If you haven't and were thinking of trying it, don't bother. It's multiplayer only but it's so sluggish and feels overly heavy on the controls. Didn't enjoy it at all and from that demo, I'm doubting the final product will fix any of the problems with the multiplayer and actualy make it enjoyable. Don't know about the single player though so there could be a chance it's still decent but I'm doubting it based on that performance.
Cube Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The singleplayer on the demo is just the same as online but with bots. From the feel of the game, the main singleplayer will just be these matches rather than an actual campaign.
CooInTheZoo Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Anyway, looks like shopto have had a few in today at £35, managed to just grab myself a copy (hopefully anyway, as the site was showing last few copies). Me too. But not until after I found a copy in HMV (after weeks of going in and asking) for £45. Gonna hopefully return it asap.
Ramar Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Random question time now gents. Are the Wireless Network Adapters region free? Just that in two weeks or so I'm heading to America, and with things being a little cheaper out there, I didn't want to get one and it didn't work when I got it home. My current thought was that all 360 peripherals were region free, but I thought I'd ask here before making a mistake.
S.C.G Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Is the Wireless Network Adapter region free?) ... .. . Yes... Yes it is! are you happy now?... Jussssst kidding but seriously afaik all peripherals are region free, hope this helps.
Cube Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Amazon Germany also leaked the PS3 Slim. The price roughly works out to be £250.
Retro_Link Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Xbox 360 Elite Console + Premium HDMI Cable, Bioshock & Connect 4 - £184.99 http://www.shopto.net/XBOX%20360/BUNDLE/XB2CO25-Xbox%20360%20Elite%20Console%20%2B%20Premium%20HDMI%20Cable%2C%20Bioshock%20%26%20Connect%204.html Currently out of stock, but like their new PS3 Slim bundles, they do get stock back in.
nightwolf Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Amazon Germany also leaked the PS3 Slim. The price roughly works out to be £250. Blockbuster are pushing the ps3 slim, woman came in asking for a pre-owned ps3 before and blockbuster practically forced her into getting a new one! haha:indeed:
Shorty Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Xbox 360 Elite Console + Premium HDMI Cable, Bioshock & Connect 4 - £184.99 The 360 Elite comes with a HDMI cable in the box o_o and component/scart, why would you need one bundled in? I saw in the newspaper the 360 elite for £199.99 in GAME with two of these: CoD4 GTAIV Fight... whatever the new boxing and golf games are called (I forget, all the boxes look the same)
Cube Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 The 360 Elite comes with a HDMI cable in the box o_o and component/scart, why would you need one bundled in? Because now it doesn't.
Retro_Link Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Yeah the new cheaper Elites just come with a component cable.
