I never thought I'd "grow out" of video games....but the older I get, the less time I have for them. They also don't hold my attention as well. I'll get a game, play it a lot for a month or 2, then it sits on the shelf and hardly ever gets played again. I'm surprised I've stuck with LA Noire as long as I have. 7/10/2011 10:21:30 AM |

bttt. Resistance 3 comes out in a month. Anyone else looking forward to it? I'll probably get it shortly after, but i was never big into the MP. 8/4/2011 11:09:01 AM |

Resistance 1 FoM was perhaps my favorite PS3 game, R2 let me down although campaign was cool. 8/4/2011 8:21:09 PM |

if you enjoy a bit of platforming and stealth mixed in with a load of button mashing fighting and some puzzles here and there then yes. It's visually awesome and can be purchased for $20 if not less. The sequel is coming out in October 8/5/2011 8:28:14 AM |

I really enjoyed Resistance 2. I didn't play R1 much though so I can't really compare. I thought the MP was awesome. The match had up to 128 players at one time. Shit was bananas.
If I was still playing a lot, I would def get R3 but there is just too much shit going on and I never get time to play. 8/5/2011 8:39:36 AM |

shit, i didn't beat R2 until about 3-4 months ago
and I just beat Uncharted 2 tuesday night.
next i plan to finally finish GTA 4
I have a $20 credit on Amazon, but I can't decide if I want to use it on R3 or battlefied 3 8/5/2011 8:57:41 AM |

My PS3 got the YLOD (yellow light of death) last night. Basically it just shut off and when I went to turn it back on it lit up green then yellow then red. $120 for repairs and I can kiss my save data goodbye. Well I went through 3 PS2s. This is the first time I've had a problem with the PS3. I guess I should not have kept it 82 in my house when I went away on vacation. 8/8/2011 10:34:01 PM |

can't believe i haven't played this game sooner. it is fun. 8/10/2011 8:44:08 AM |
ViolentMAW All American 4127 Posts user info edit post |
^^ I played both. If you haven't played either then you should def get it. I might buy it myself because I played Shadow of the Colossus way after it came out and the graphics looked old as dirt. I hate when that happens. The overall impact of the game is diminished. 8/10/2011 11:12:45 AM |

Just started playing Killzone 3... liking it a lot, so far. I like the controls, too (after a bit of a learning curve). Main thing - this game looks amazing. Truly stunning graphics. That is all. 8/16/2011 10:46:49 PM |

Just saw the other day that you can get Sunday Ticket through PS Network
I just switched to DTV too. I'm still happy with the decision though. I got it for free this year and can watch on any tv. 9/9/2011 11:12:21 AM |

Anyone buy the NFL on ps3 yet? Reason I ask is my buddy wants to give me $50 and log in on his ps3 at his house...can you do that? I would have figured that someone knows how directv verifies your info? Maybe just login with my name and password like the "to-go" app on ipad 9/11/2011 8:07:31 AM |

So i have been debating on whether or not it's worth it to trade in my big box ps3 and get a new slim model. Has anyone done this?
I'm not for lack of memory as I upgraded to a 500GB, but I'm just wondering what advantages the new slims have? and there is also a Uncharted/320GB bundle being released soon. 9/22/2011 10:35:36 AM |
ViolentMAW All American 4127 Posts user info edit post |
^^ I'm not biting on that one. Sony really knows how to get hold on Square fanboys like me. I bought a PSP for FFVII: Crisis Core and the story in that game blew. At least Patapon was worth buying it for road trips. 9/22/2011 10:43:25 AM |

There was supposed to be a FFVI release in the PSN store. Supposedly it has released in Japan, but not yet NA which saddens me.
I bet they are trying to butter up older square fans to buy FFXIII-2, since FFXIII failed so horribly. 9/22/2011 10:46:31 AM |

I'm thinking about it too as soon as I can find a job. Supposedly the fan is much quieter, but the disk drive is slightly noisier.9/29/2011 5:46:44 PM |

You can always change the hard drive, can't change the fan.
Actually, that's an assumption. Can you easily change out the hard drive on the slim?

The answer , from me, is always "because I want a controller that is intuitive and because I don't want to have to upgrade my hardware every year". 9/29/2011 8:49:22 PM |

Battlefield's largest dedicated following is on the PC so you have to expect that in that thread. Yes they are elitist and you'll never win their argument over point and click vs. controller. My recommendations are to either create a Battlefield 3 Console Version thread or post in here regarding it.
For one, I want to get BF3 but unless it receives uncanny ratings and response I will probably hold off for awhile. 9/30/2011 8:01:53 AM |

i played a few rounds on the beta last night. didn't really see any bugs at all, gameplay is great
the loadout selection takes some getting used to, no big deal. i'm glad i preordered 9/30/2011 9:48:49 AM |

apparently IGN is writing a detailed breakdown for some of the smaller less known or harder to see items.
The teaser trailer for that, that came out about 2 weeks ago (basically the first 30-40 seconds) even had a bunch of hidden things. 10/5/2011 5:01:41 PM |
