Title: PS3 = cool
Post by: Kaos on April 30, 2008, 12:14:45 PM
Okay.  I used teh eBays and got me a PS3 for my birthday. 

When NCAA 2009 comes out, I want to set up a deal with some of you dorks and play some games online.  And anybody with Rock Band and the PS3 is welcome to give me the info and we'll hook up to jam together. 

Any other games I should consider?

Gran Turismo 5 and Guitar Hero 3, Kaos wait till you watch a Blu-Ray movie on the Ps3 its amazing. I have bought several Blu-Ray discs used from ebay for around 10 dollars.

I will quote my wife on that (we haven't tried one yet, BTW):

"BluRay, SchmooRay.  It's a freaking movie." 

As for the games, I have RockBand.  Would love to play some of that online.  I don't know how to create friends and all that horsemanure, but if somebody could send me their online deal or whatever so I could invite them to play in my fake band I would do that.  I suck at it.  Can do fine on medium, but once it gets to hard or expert (except on some songs on bass) I fail.

I have GH (1,2,3 and 80s) for PS2.  Debated getting GH3 for PS3,  but am so used to having the drums that it seems kind of limiting.   I do like the GnR songs on GH and the fact that I could download Slither is enticing.

Dood, I am all over the NCAA 09 when it comes out, but the only game I have picked up so far is MLB 07, just to test the system out.  I still owe Jarhead an online ID for my Wii, so if I start now trying to figure teh PS3 e-bays out, maybe I can kick your ass in some football this summer.

I understand that, but X-Box live > PS3 crap.  Plus, Blu Ray will have an add on for X-Box in a few months.

I heard XBox live sucked the nuts.  PS3 is pretty smooth.

The Blu Ray movies for ps3 are unbelievable.
If you can, try and get the movies that have a lot of grafix, special effect.  IF you have a good HD tv, it's fucking amazing!

X-Box live is amazing, but realistically, the only real difference is the amount of stuff they allow you to do on X-Box live that is not on PS3.  Such as download full episodes of South Park the day after they come on T.V., etc...

Its doing great acually, and I have had no problems with it.  I know Microsoft ripps people off, but I find that so many more people use X-Box than PS3.  At least the people that are worth playing a game with.   :poke:

a firmware update for the latest version. 

personally, i don't have ps3 nor a blu-ray dvd player but from my father-in-law there are updates to it.  updates are on teh intrawebs.  i would imagine your ps3 would have a setting to do it automatically.   

with the wii, it does the updates automatically which has access to teh intrawebs through my wireless router.

Still holding out for one of these bad boys.  I want one with a Blu Ray, and if XBOX doesn't release one soon, I may be forced to go PS3.  Anybody have any updates on XBOX's launch with an add on Blu Ray player?
