Ye my friend was planning on buying a PS3 then putting it up on ebay and then using profits buy another ps3 and then keep the rest of the cash.
He never got a chance though because when he FINALLY got to buy one on the first day.. The staff at the store were like.. keeping some in the back for themselves etc. and he never got too x_x

I'm contemplating it. I have the money it's just whether or not I'd like to spend so much. I just need some more reasons to buy... seeing as Metal Gear Solid 4 (and FFXIII if the battle system is as good as XII) is the only reason I can think of. There are a lot of PS2 games I have yet to play too (which I'm hoping are compatable - Bully, ICO, Shadow of the Collossus, Katamari Damacy, Fahrenheit, Psychonauts, Okami, Resident Evil 4, God of War, Kingdom Hearts II).

I got one....

I have every console and handheld ever made except the wii which there is none at stores atm.

PS3s are better then 360's when it comes to online play.

PSP Failed sorry , PS1 was okay , The only decent console was the Ps2

DS Owned the PSP and you know it.



PS1 Had like 50% of the gaming market but not as much as the ps2.

The PS3 has sold 1 and a half million in america :o , The wii has sold 2 and a half million in America ;)


My plan

360 For Birthday
PS3 for Christmas.
I've already gotten a Wii , DS , DS Lite and PSP ;P

I hate the DS.. I hate nintendo except the old ones..

They never had any life life games...

Like Mario (I loved it) and Zelda.. but never any gears of war? Or call of duty?

And when they did make it for the WII it stunk.

Nintendo should stick with animated things like Mario whereas 360+PS3 stick with real life graphics

PaulMacC
26-02-2007, 12:09 AM
I agree with that thought I kinda liked the graphic's with Zelda , Even tho they were no-were near PS3/360 , It was a GCN game transfered to Wii.
Graphic's like that are okay.
I also like the graphic's on Tony Hawk Downhill Jam

I would have if the Final Fantasy VII tech demo was really for the PS3. That was pretty much the only thing that made me want one.

Not getting one now that SONY are cheating by being lazy like xbox and only making some PS2 games backward compatible... Its a cheek for that price tag.. They say they need to save money... Think of how much they get back form accesories/games !

Personally, I cannot see why people argue about Mario and Zelda not being real life graphics... They're fictional, completely. Also, I cannot see what Zelda or Mario would look like as real life graphics, they're not human and meant to animated...

Oni
27-02-2007, 08:20 PM
Exactly, infact most of my favirote games are old ones like dungeon keeper and banjo kazooie etc

GommeInc
27-02-2007, 08:28 PM
And can you make them realistic? No. They're fantasy characters. There is a big different between humans and Nintendo characters like Zelda, Link, Mario, Banjo and Kazooie. Peach maybe an exception, but she isn't really human either...

I like Mario, I prefer him to human characters in boring shoot 'em ups. It's like playing with a short italian but with stronger strength and powers :P

How does Banjo even look remotely realistic in that? He's just got more polygons, which if were absent you'd probably be whinging "that looks so last gen".

It was never designed to be realistic, i think this is part of the reason why sonic has always failed in 3d.

Bear-max belive me I wouldnt, my fav games on consoles have cr*p gfx lol because they spend more time and effort on gameplay rather than gfx. Also why would i complain if banjo looked like he did on n64? they are my top games ever.

Because games have moved on. If a console can produce great-looking graphics then why shouldn't it? I don't want a game to be ugly for ugliness' sake. Graphics aren't the be-all and end-all of a good game, but we shouldn't be denied something that CAN be pretty as well as fun.

Because they're not human and the creators/designers would have to work harder to make other things look realistic, like horses and bad guys. In something like GTA or Metal Gear, you just look at a humans form and base it around that, then develop into guns and buildings and realistic explosions.

I am happy with graphics as long as they don't waste their effort developing on the graphics than the game play itself. Twilight Princess was excellent, because it had good graphics and game play, because it was delayed release so they worked harder on it. Wario Ware is a good game in my opinion too... But that doesn't exactly love graphics, the fun was in the randomness of the mini games.

Nearly every racing XBOX game uses right trigger and I always use reverse (Left trigger) for breaking. So, no I never use B or A

Yes , The Wii , But you can also turn on a feature that lets you use the turbo bust with the A button and the brake with the B .

Lol PSP Failed horribly , The DS has sold over 3 time's more than it.
PS1 sold okay but not as much as the PS2 sold .
IMO the PS2 was the only sucessful console and with the PS3 only selling 1 Mil in USA , It looks to be the same fate as the PSP and turn out to be a Sega style disaster.

I hate stupid idiot fanboys who try to make up facts and listen to the smallest things about ps3. The ps3 is a great system, so is 360, and in some ways, the wii. I have all three consoles and i can honestly say ps3 is my favourite out of all of them.
