  2. Originally posted by germcevoy:Just took delivery of my PS3 today drew. Delivered quicker than I expected so I had no games. Just ordered 2 and a HDMI cable. It's gonna be a good weekend


    What games you getting?


  3. Just ordered Drakes Fortune and Ratchet and Clank tools of destruction. 2 for £25 on play.com.

    I'm just patiently waiting for Gran Turismo though. Any decent 1st person shooters?


  4. Good choice. I might have to buy one myself. They really screwed things up with the sixaxis controller.


  5. no choice. It was a dispute with the makers of the dual shock. They couldn't really hold back the release of the console just because of the controller. But you gotsta have the rumble
  6. I have a PS3 it's pretty good, not as fun as my Xbox 360 though.
    I have all my music on it.


  7. that can be done on a PS3 to. I'd be more open minded with the Xbox if it had a Playstation controller. I couldn't use anything else
  8. I would have bought a 360, but I've heard too many horror stories of the "Red Ring of Death" that many consumers had to deal with.

    i've heard many stories of breakdowns aswell


  10. That was the early models, mine has never broken down, the incidence of RROD is overreported (possibly due to most of the media having early 360 models).

    And seriusly you guys prefer the PS3 controller over the 360??? The PS3 controller has only one advantage over the 360, it has a much better d-pad, otherwise the 360's controller is better in every other area, it also has a removable battery, so you won't need to buy a new controller every 2 years.

    Another annoying thing about the PS3 controller is that it doesn't charge when the system is on standby, which is just stupid. IMO too many people eat up Sony's marketing hype, it was the same case with the PS2.

    Almost like the Johnny Cash of the technology world...burning rings of fire et al...I'm hoping to get hold of one soonish
