Dang I wish I had some money.... I suck
-
You do have money...but you\'re spending it on an awesome house. Awesome house > PS3
-
funny how the lack of games STILL keeps me from getting it, despite the good price
-
that\'s the reason why I haven\'t got one yet, I have more than enough to buy one right now, even with it\'s £425 price tag.
I\'m holding off until at least GTA4 comes out.
-
what lack of games?
-
he probably means exclusives...
-
Do you plan on buying all those games or are you just in the mood to complain?
-

what lack of games?
He meant lack of good games. I mean, honestly, you can\'t pretend there is a nice list of great AAA games out there right now for it. Maybe in time, but not right now.
-
lack of current exclusives. Ps3 doesnt have anything to make the purchase right now. GT5, MGS...and i run blank. Everything is in production and is most likely lined up for a few more delays until actually being released. I hate final fantasy, and everything else i can get on 360.
All i can really think that id buy is motorstorm. Lair and warhawk would be maybes..id probably get them just to have some games on the system
-
motorstorm is worth the price of admission alone.
you\'re missing out.
-
i told myself i\'d definitely buy a 360 when halo 3 came out.. but after looking at screenies and hearing all the horror stories of people on their 4th xbox i will hold off until i see a 65nm CPU.
with the ps3, i\'m only interested in tekken dr online and blu-ray at this point. GTA IV will definitely push me over the edge to buy one of the two, most likely the ps3.

450$ for Motorstorm, right.
-
I\'d buy it now. I have 450 dollars...but I need that money for bills and school. I\'ll just have to wait until I have the extra money to spend. Maybe con it from my parents some how for my birthday.
-

Oh you want a game? That costs extra.
-
i handle the sarcasm around here, thanks.
-
I\'ve read it all, when I read on a forum that "motorstorm is worth the price of admission alone". You have got to be kidding me! I am not bashing the game, but there is no way that is even a triple A game. Never the less worth the $450, plus another $60 for the game.
-
it\'s a triple A game to me, can you dispute that?
-
450$ for Motorstorm, right.
I never knew a 450$ PS3 can only play Motorstorm. Or that people will want to buy a PS3 only for Motorstorm and no other game.
Anyways the 60GB version now sounds like a great deal over my country.
A premium XBOX360 costs around 270-280 CY pounds with one game.
After Sony\'s announcement stores are selling the 60GB PS3 with Motorstorm and Resistance plus one extra controller for 350 Cy pounds. 350 was the initial price of the console with no game and no extra controller.
If Sony went with such a pricing from the beginning it would have sold many times more.
With 350CY pounds you get a Blu Ray Player, 60GB instead of 20GB found on 360, WiFi connectivity, mem stick duo support, an extra controller, and 2 awesome games. Fantastic. I need the money now before the 60GB runs out.

There\'s nothing to dispute. That\'s your opinion. Opinions aren\'t facts. But games are all about what you like and don\'t like...but just because you think something is worth it, that doesn\'t mean that everyone else should feel the same way. I don\'t particularly like that game much, but I don\'t think it\'s any reason to bash the PS3. I think it\'s childish if you\'re still going on about which console is better. Just play whatever freaking makes you happy and stop trying to justify the better console because you can only afford one of them.
I like pancakes.

-
to me..not having 1v1 on the same screen brings it down a lot. but motorstorm 2 should be awesome since id assume theyd have it by then
-
anyone know how long this thing lasts and if its only online?
still debating since we probably arent getting a better price any time soon, plus the site always says its out of stock
-
what thing? Motortstorm? What do you mean by "only online"?
-
the 10% off at target
-

Just because one person lowers their standards, so that they can enjoy a purchase, doesn\'t mean that it\'s a triple A game.
-
just because someone jumped on the anti-sony bandwagon doesn\'t mean they can\'t enjoy a PS3 game regardless of reviews said person read on the intarweb.
-
No bandwagon fan here, I simply stated there still isn\'t enough good games to warrant the price. I say the same about the Wii and it\'s only $250 bucks. Guess that means I\'m on the anti-Nintendo bandwagon also.
-
Well, regardless of games, that is an awesome price for a Blu-Ray player.
I picked up a 60gig PS3 a while back, so no deal for me, but still, if you\'re looking for a Blu-Ray player, this one is worth checking out.

I\'d totally buy it just for blu-ray if i didn\'t have these damn cheapass TVs :(
-
Yeah. I have a really nicve tv, but it was before the whole HDCP crap so I don\'t think HD will even play through the HDMI cable. That\'s ok. I\'ll just have an excuse to buy a new tv.

I think thats a problem for a lot of people. 400 bucks for a console PLUS a new TV is just too much to play video games. At least for a broke ass college student.
-
does ps3 not play on older tv\'s then?
-
^^
Yes it does play on older TVs, but people think that\'s an excuse not to get a PS3 is because they think they need a new TV for some reason. No, it won\'t be HD, but yes...you can still play the games. Xbox 360 also plays games in HD. I don\'t see people making that excuse for it.
Of course...Blu-ray is pointless without an HDTV, but the console shouldn\'t be the thing to blame because you don\'t have an HDTV yet.

The console isn\'t a problem, but why would I buy a next-gen console (outside of the wii) when I have a 19 inch TV from 1992. The only thing next-gen about the current set of games are the graphics which I\'ll barely see. Its like buying a badass Computer but having a monitor that only supports 640x480 resolution.
And i\'m referring to both the 360 and the PS3.

from experience, my 360 looked like shit on my old tv. luckily i had my computer monitor before i got my hdtv, so i had a reason to still get one. turned out looking really good on my monitor
