IMO I'd get a PS3...I play it at the store all the time and it never ceases to amaze me...all the games for it are pretty cool...Resistence Fall of Man...This one I played as a girl and she just likes to kick ass....haha...and alot of others...I'd say get it.

I'm actually buying a PS3 next week, considering they have lowered the price. Backward compatibility is no problem with me, because I have a PS2. People who say the PS3 sucks is most likely a fan boy of either the xbox or wii...

And if people take advantage of sales/coupons, they can save a lot of $ x.x..I have a 25% off coupon waiting in my pocket right now.

NO, the PS3 does not suck -_-.

I prefer the 360 right now but I agree, the PS3 does have a lot of potential.

They really need to move those next gen systems in the US before 2009. The Canadian dollar is now 7 cents more than the US dollar. The US is on the verge of a massive economic collapse. I don't need to point out all the current problems, I hope the people in California are doing ok from that forest fire.

Please do it via PM.
[ontopic] IMO, PS3 is, by comparison, the cheapest system. Blueray players are in the ballpark of $1000 so $400-$500 is super cheap. I'd pay that without blueray.

Enlighten us on why you feel that way, rather than using three words to end a thread in which you don't have power to do.

So the Wii won't slump and will still sell relatively well.
Based on that, and with what the ps3 is doing I just don't see them making up all that ground any time soon.
It'll happen down the road perhaps, but it won't be changing drastically this Christmas.

As for the Ps3, I may get that or a 360 for Christmas.
I think both are doing their part in their respective categories.

That was my response to this thread.

the ps3 will have great games soon, mgs4 guns of the patriots, wich is by the way the only reason i am buying a ps3 , and then there is grand theft auto 4, but unfortunately for sony, its a multy platform title, but non the less, the ps3 is good, we just cant see it right now

Like I said though, its going to have to do more than that, it will need to go over leaps and bounds to pull off something big real soon.

Nintendo's got its big guns coming as well, and the Wii has already done well on some sub-par games.

Best thing for Sony to do would be to wait for a hole in the other consoles titles. Like Mid 2008, that way not everyone is selling good games at the same time.

i was always a nintendo kid. dabbled in sega. but playstation had nothing i want. nowadays, it has one game i want. i'm not going to spend ~AUD$1,000 on a console i'll use for one game. i don't care about flashy graphics. i think playstation is overrated. the most i would pay for any playstation console is ~AUD$150-250. it's shit.

ok.
