So you say it's better than the 360 yet you've not even got one?

WHAT?! F1 games are F-ing shit. Or are you just going to get it so you can use your PSP as a wing mirror?

I use my wing mirror as a wing mirror, who needs a PS3 and F1 game when you have VW Golf, which incidently cost me less than it would for a PS3.

We're talking about racing games, not golf games. What are you, stupid?

I love my PS3. Gaming is fun and awsome depends on what games you have. I have resitance fall of man which is awsome online and offline, and gundam which i have yet to really get into, but yet again a awsome game. I have also played the demo's of motorstorm and gran tourismo both are amazing.
My opinion is its a great console, but wait till it drops in price.

My expectations were low when Eric offered to lean me his over the weekend. Now after 2 nights with it I realise my expectations may still have been set a bit high, for a few reasons. Resistance is very good looking, but has nothing new, I have gotten (I guess) half way through it and so far am waiting for a reason for me to play through the rest of it. The plot is just not intresting enough and it has no gameplay mechanics that make me want to play this game over other FPS games that our out now. Motorstorm is just plain shite in my opinion, I cannot see why people rave on about it, can anyone shed some light on this strange behaviour? Call of Duty 3 seems to be a great game though, but I cannot see any improvements in it compared to the Xbox 360 version, and the framerate stuttered in a few places (though never hurt the gameplay) whilst the 360's version was very smooth (though I am willing to admit that it was most likely just a lazy port that brought about these issues) Genji is pretty good, but unfortunatly is mearly average in comparison with other games of its type (I even think the PS2 Genji is better) they should have delayed this and given it more time in the stewing pot, then it might have been a much better game. I only have these games with it, there was a blue ray disc with it as well, Click, how ever bar me taking a look at it to see what the quality was, I have not watched it (I already know that the film is fantastic, and I can't see it being in HD spoiling that). If you are intrestet I have been playing on the PS3 on a Samsung 32" HDTV model: WS-32Z429 (properly set up) through both HDMI and Component at 1080 and 720 resolutions (I did play my 360 through component, but it is curently doing the 3 red lights of doom) All in all, I hate to be negative about the PS3 as it is a lovely machine and "seems"* well put together which is something of a surprise given Sony's track record. But I would recommend against buying one at £425, and I would hesitate even at £325, only when the console reaches the £250 or so range would I recommend getting one, and even then only if some "killer apps" have been released by that time. When you think about it, how good can the PS3 be if someone who bought it only a week or so ago is already letting his friend borrow it for a weekend? *Some of the chrome trim is quite loose, is this a normal thing? I don't want to poke around at it to try and fix it in a bit better as it isn't my PS3, and knowing my luck I would break the chrome bits right off

Fair review, but my version is total oposite, but only because we are differnet poeple.
we have to judge on personal preference, yes resistance fall of man has some things from other games, but as for the story i love it, its a great feel to the game, the last few levels had me on edge nearlly all the way through and i felt my heart raceing.
I love the console but only becuase i've never expected anything, just accepted it for what it is.

My main problem with it is the price, it may seem as if I am overly negative about the PS3 (In actual fact I do like it quite a bit), I just feel that when you can pick up a new 360 premium for £200 from Makro (an extra 3 year waranty is £30) that the PS3 at £425 is just too much to pay. And the price is more unacceptable when you consider the lack of great games (compared to the 360's library) I would say when the PS3 picks up more "must have" titles then it may become worth the current price tag. but the only titles like that I can see on the horison are Gran Turismo, MGS4 and GTA4 although I am sure there are going to be more than just that in the future, they are the only ones that I can say I wouold buy the console for. Problem for Sony is that two of those titles may well get 360 conversions at some point, as they have previously been Sony exclusive but then been ported to other systems. Though I will admit I havn't really checked out the PS3's release list so if there are any other big titles comming out soon then feel free to let me know about them.

GTA4 is out on both 360 and PS3 on launch day, surely you knew that Mr Dragoon I do agree though about the price, it is the only thing that is stopping me from getting one.

That two hundred squid Premium deal ran out ages ago, Mr Richard. Get with the times. Nope, you can still get a premium for £200 from makro, and you can now get a premium with a game (PGR3) and extra controler from the co-op for £150 until may 5th.

Hmm, this £150 X360 sounds intriguing. How can the co-op sell it that cheap? I'd need to see it with my own eyes, but do you reckon all stores are doing it?

I reckon it's just stores in backwards areas where the people are too poor or too stupid to see the deal.
DJ, is this going on at your co-op?

That's the only way he managed to get a 360. P.S. I've got one as well now! Huzzah. I'm going to kill you all online even though I don't have it connected to the internet.

Sorry Webby, i don't live in a backwards area anymore, there's no co-ops around here. Though when i did live in a shithole, they didn't even know what games consoles were, let alone sell them. I don't have a PSP.

Stock clearance because of the 360 elite I assume (the core system is being discontinued), I cannot see it on the co-op website, but my local store has them in. And acording to the guy in the store it is a nationwide thing so if you are lucky you will be able to pick one up at this price (or be cheeky and try to get game\gamestation to price match).

I'll definitley be in the possession of PS3 before the years end. Uncharted Drakes Fortune & Ratchet & Clank 4 are amounst the games I'm interested in and both of them look gorgeous. I'll still be keeping my PS2 aswell with its huge software library & raft of great games!

I intended to buy a PS3 soon, but I've just spent £200 of my PS3+HDTV budget on a new pair of wheels for my bike. Probably a wiser use of money, TBH.
