I' m getting a new PS3 this Saturday!

...so I need to know what to get. I' m thinking Resistance and Ninja Gaiden: Sigma.

Maybe Motorstorm or RR7.

What do you guys think?

As far as Blu-ray, I' ve already got Casino Royale, Transporter 2, Kingdom of Heaven, Rocky Balboa and Monster House. The last three I haven' t seen. These aren' t my first choices for Blu-ray titles, but there was a really good sale over at DeepDiscount.com and these were the best deals. I can' t wait for the re-release of The Fifth Element!!

Sigma over Resistance, Motorstorm over RR7. Don' t bother buying any of those movies.

I read the name of the thread and I thought you meant there was a new type of ps3....Ps3 Brute!

RR is trash, get Motorstorm without question. Ridge racer screams PS1, the gameplay is archaic and stupid. LOL, don' t buy that with your PS3. As for Resistance or Sigma, I' d probably pick neither. If I bought a PS3 todday I' d only buy Motorstorm, Flow and a bunch of BluRay movies, but movies that I like, I wouldn' t buy mediocrity just because it' s on sale.

I' ve actually decided to support Blu-ray over HD-DVD. I' m just waiting for the technology to develop so I can buy a high quality Blu-Ray rom drive for my PC.


You need a HDMI cable if you don' t already have one, the PS3 only comes with composite.[:' (]

I would buy a headset for online play as well as a remote for movies, the controller works but I' d rather have a real remote.

I do that a lot.

Definitely covered there. Unfortunately, I' ll have to hook it up to my 34" Sony. I' m in the process of replacing my projector, and this guy who said he' d hook me up with a good price is taking FOREVER (killing me, Smalls!).

Sorry. I' ll fix that, immediately.

...but if it makes you feel any better...

Ah, the Limited Edition Canuck PS3. I prefer the black one.

Don' t bother with Resistance. It' s complete trash. The Darkness is out soon, so i' d suggest waiting for that if you want an FPS.

Sigma is a must, as are MotorStorm and Virtua Fighter 5 and if you haven' t got the 360 version you can' t go wrong with Virtua Tennis 3.

Oh and if you don' t have it already, buy God of war II. It' s more impressive than anything next-gen.

make sure to add us to your psn! Hopefully we can make some sort of kikizo motorstorm race, or something, but we need more people

Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

I love the Ridge Racer series, but 7 is absolute garbage. There' s poor-aliasing, and then there' s Ridge Racer 7. It' s really really ugly.

However, there is one advantage. Chris Rock isn' t backseat driving like he was in 6.[:' (]

Wellllll...

I done went and ordered Resistance. I actually ordered it the same day I made this post, so that tells you something about my patience.

Of course NG: Sigma was pre-ordered as well. I was thinking of getting Virtua Fighter, but I want to get it for the 360 (I read a review somewhere, and it said that there were plenty of improvements in the Xbox version, so...). Not a big fan of tennis.

Oh, and God of War II has been in my PS2 for the past couple of months! Granted, I' ve only put in about 8 hours or so, but you' re right; it' s an awesome game! Of course I loved the first one, so it was expected that the second would occupy a LOT of my time.

I would like to say that my PS3 dreams have been put on hold. The guy that was going to give me a brand new one for $450 said he wanted to charge more because a lot of people wanted them. I told him to kiss my ass, and I would never do any business with him! So now I' m going to order one off of Amazon (right after I order my new projector, this Tuesday).

Oh yeah, The Darkness is gettin' purchased ASAP! Starbreeze Studios? Hellz yeah!! I loved Chronicles of Riddick. Hell, I' m still upset that it' s not backward compatible!

I trust Starbreeze, but " The Darkness" always felt a little bit off to me. Can' t really explain it.

the darkness looks crap, I hear nobody can understand what is happening in it.

I wish they' d put up a demo. It' s due out on Wednesday I think.

I read a review of the Darkness in a GI and it seemed like if you were a sociopath and or wanted to be one then this game will make perfect sense to you. Now other than that the graphics looked nice but the interface looked really strange. Overall it doesn' t look like my kinda game.

I haven' t bothered looking at anything of the game, but I just saw a commercial advertising it and it doesnt look like as funny as everyone has been leading it up to be

Don' t bother with Resistance. It' s complete trash.

I' ve read that Resistance is good fun online. GamesTM gave its multiplayer 4 stars I think (but for the actual single player mode I believe they gave a 6/10). There aren' t that many great games out for the console at the moment anyway, in my opinion.

The PSN system is free isn' t it?

Call of Duty 3 is better than Resistance. Fact!

Call of Duty 3 sucks. Fact!

Resistance is trash. Fact!



Any score it got that wasn' t 3/10 means that the reviewer was suffering from launch title madness. It happens with every console launch. Look at Perfect Dark Zero for Christs sake! Even Kikizo rated PDZ highly. Madness i tell you!

But seriously, the character models are superb ,there' s some cool architecture and there' s zero slowdown. When it comes to the single player, there' s no sense of progression, no real plot, lame environments, lame " we tried to hard to make them different" weapons, retarded N64 quality textures, awful explosions, pathetic cutscenes and disgusting level design.

The online doesn' t fare much better. It could have been fun but they simply threw the shit weapons into some shit levels with shit game modes and 40 players and hoped for the best.

I fucking hate Resistance: Fall of Man...

If somebody has a PS3 and wants to play online then MotorStorm, Rainbow Six and Call of Duty 3 are you best bets. The Warhawk beta owned and i hope to get into the next round too as it' s easily the most fun i' ve had with the machine since launch.

Everything will change when GRAW 2 is released though. It has a gazillion modes, tons of maps and a fuckload of badass weapons. Silent and I are gonna own.

Call of Duty 3 sucks. Fact!

nope, i beat COD 3 and it' s a good game, sometimes it gets boring but very few games don' t... i think it' s your best shot on ps3 , AA title

Call of Duty 3 is better than Resistance. Opinion!

I' m sure there are probably other people that think differently. I used to not think Motorstorm was that great to be honest.

But what do I know, eh? Apparently my views don' t count.

From what I' ve played, Resistence is a very average FPS. Its only saving grace is its online play which I found pretty fun but nothing amazing.

The Warhawk beta owned

I played it yesterday and it was good fun. I could see myself playing the game quite alot if I had a PS3. The flying is great and easy to control (thats WITHOUT the motion sensing turned on).

The game scored consistent 7.5s and 8.0s. Possibly 1.0 of that score was for the single player. The multiplayer owns hardcore, but I' d take Battlefield' s single-player over CoD:3.

I might just buy warhawk, if the rumors are true and it ships with a bluetooth headset, then its sold! I hope there are more games to join than whats on in the beta, sometimes it can be lacking...

Call of Duty 3 is not a bad game in the grand scheme of things. Compared to Resistance it' s a technical marvel and a well rounded experience.

However, while the online works pretty well, they don' t hold a candle to the likes of GRAW 2 and Gears and the single player game is plain awful. Call of Duty 2' s single player mode was massively superior in every aspect that matters.

That' s why there was a HUGE sigh of relief when it was announced that Infinity ward was taking back the franchise. Because Treyarch fucked it up.

I didn' t hear a sigh of releif. I heard the safeties on firearms across the world flip back on.

You don' t think the online is on-par with Gears? It' s certainly nowhere near as nice as GRAW 2' s online experience, there' s no comparison there, but while I thought gears was good, the online portion has never been my favorite part of the title. I wouldn' t play it unless I was up against somebody on my friends list for sure.

The two are hard to compare because the match-sizes & game style itself are so radically different. 3' s multiplayer experience was more comparable to a really shiny Battlefield 2, a game with good multiplayer.

Or... maybe I' m just moody because I don' t have GRAW2 yet.

I prefer Gears of War to any other online game i have, i like not respwaning once im killed, it makes me think more, and it feels better wasting the others!

I like instant respawns. It keeps campers at bay.

Mmm but the feeling of being jumped, or jumping someone is great!

Gears is good but nothing really compares to GRAW 2. Vegas is too glitchy.

CoD3 is good online and that' s the only reason why i still own it, but i prefer Battlefeld 2: Modern Combat.

I actually think Lost Planet' s online mode is very underrated. I' ve had a blast with it, much in the same way i' ve been really enjoying Warhawk.

What' s great about this year is that Ubisoft Paris are doing a first-person Americas Army game, DICE have Battlefield: Bad Company and Infinty Ward have CoD4.

I just hope SOCOM: Confrontation turns out to be good.

Battlefield 2 on PC and Gears owns all in my opinion.
I have had very little problems with Vegas online, Call of Duty 3 if great craic online as is GRAW 2.

I actually think Lost Planet' s online mode is very underrated.

I agree, the disc grenades are brilliant!

Gears is good but nothing really compares to GRAW 2. Vegas is too glitchy.

Vegas' multiplayer always felt wrong to me, but it wasn' t the glitches that really got me irritated. You have a game based around tactical realism, but when your individual players can take 5 rounds from a high-caliber rifle before downing it' s completely shattered any notion of effective tactical movement. It turns more into

*pokes head around corner*
*pokes head around corner*
*sees head poke around corner*
*pokes head around corner*
*unloads from 10 feet away*

CoD3 is good online and that' s the only reason why i still own it, but i prefer Battlefeld 2: Modern Combat.

The difference is that I can manage to play CoD3 with total strangers. If I have to deal with the stupid noob 13 year old that crashes the damn helicopter 30 seconds into the level one more time, so help me god...

I actually think Lost Planet' s online mode is very underrated. I' ve had a blast with it, much in the same way i' ve been really enjoying Warhawk.

So it' s good then? I downloaded the demo quite a while back but the servers were spazzing out, so I deleted it to make room for more crap.

And I have no money.

I just hope SOCOM: Confrontation turns out to be good.

It' s going to blow, big time. And 6 months from now when the reviews start coming in you can quote me on that one.

Honestly, I play games in single player most of the time. Not a big online user. I' m REALLY looking forward to Sigma! Especially since I just ordered my new projector and PS3!

I' ve been playing that Overlord demo on Live. I like it. Kinda feels like Fable in a way.

Okay, so I' ve played the Overlord demo and liked it, and I liked Chronicles of Riddick, so now the decision is; Overlord or Darkness.

Discuss.

I thought Overlord didnt come out until August? If thats right, then I' d go with Darkness now(or get another game) then get this in August

Team Xbox and Amazon have the release date as 6/26, so it should be available. On Amazon it says that the " game usually ships withing 2 to 4 weeks" so I just assumed they were sold out.

Eh, I' ll probably just wait to get either of them. I still have plenty of games that I' ve bought, but not yet played. Rainbow Six: Vegas, Lost Planet, Command and Conquer 3, and N3 just to name a few. And then there are the ones that I' ve put a little amount of time in, and now collect dust on the shelves, like God of War 2, Okami, Castlevania SOTN, and many others. I swear, I' m growing out of playing video games, but I still like to buy the damn things! It' s sad, really.

Dont worry, I do it too, I bought Yakuza and only played it once! i will get around to it, but I duuno, sometingmust be wrong when games like Okami and Shenmue 2 get irgonred because of 24:the Game. Which isnt that good, but was fun.
