^I don't use an external drive anymore. at least not directly. I do have an external drive with all my media on it hooked up to my iMac. I then use Twonky Media on my iMac to run a media server that is both accessible from my xbox360 and my PS3. Its the smoothest running media server I have ever seen. No lag or streaming issues when it comes to wmv-HD or other hd formats. It streams all my photos, movies, tv shows, and music. I have no complaints with the software either...non that i've run into at least. 12/13/2007 9:54:15 PM |

i'd rent it but honestly it looks like the same UT. Same girl, different dress. I'm sure it's solid, as they all are - but it won't hold my attention enough for a purchase. Sorry. I do want to play/try it though! )
I fucking wish gamefly would send me the right titles, they sent me folklore and some #10 choice instead of UT3 and zak and wiki 12/13/2007 11:25:46 PM |

That is good news actually, that'll make that a pretty huge title when it drops. Sony can't get that here fast enough....nor I can't friggin wait til it does drop. I'm not really into stealth games and MGS has worn on me (didn't like MGS3) but that doesnt mean I wouldnt pick that one up day one.

^ Why did you even get a PS3? What do you play on it or plan on playing on it? Doesn't seem like you like any of the games that are out or are coming out. I know you got it for free, but I'm just curious.
Little Big Planet and Killzone 2 are expected to be out in September/October 2008. Long ways away.
I am really thinking about getting UT3, only I'm not sure I'd be able to play with you because I would be in the sixaxis servers (no keyboard and mouse). 12/14/2007 10:07:04 AM |

I got one because I'm a gaming enthusiast and always get every console on the new iteration. It's my only form of escapism. Plus I wanted a quality movie player and it's showed it's worth in gold there. It's the best DVD playback I've ever seen, and the Bluray and HDMI connection is priceless on my 42" plasma.
Needles, the gaming just isnt quite there for me yet. PS3 is still young, and I expect 2008 to deliver or bust. Either way I still get my kicks out of it's movie capability. You cite Little Big Planet...which is a title I would CRAP myself over. I can't wait honestly. But that's a year's time so it's no use talking about it yet. Killzone 2 has alot of promise too, looks like PS3's Gears of War....but we'll see. I'd likely get FF13 even though I tired of JRPGs, for some reason I'm sure that one will be good.
To be honest, I have liked the bigger games to have come out, they've all been solid - but not that extra touch and nothing worth owning the game over. Unfortunately right now, I've only owned one game for the system (Warhawk) and I kept the jabra headset and sold the game cause I wasn't playing it b/c of HUGE surge of other titles to hit. I did think about buying UT3 just so I can have a game for the system. I didnt buy R/C or Uncharted because of replay value..but I think both are fine games.
If enough of you had UT3 with mouse/keyboard I'd get it just so I could take you to school. 12/14/2007 10:14:55 AM |

thats because there are no games worth while on the console yet. Everything that might be worth something doesn't come out until 2008. And even then, off the top of my head I can think of 2 or 3 titles. The PS3 has a long way to go in the gaming department.12/14/2007 10:23:20 AM |

I just don't buy the no games argument...maybe the fact the exclusives have been a little thin to date, but if you're a dual console owner, that's your own problem. So far I have purchased and thuroughly enjoyed playing the following games:
Virtua Tennis 3 Tiger Woods 2008 NCAA Football 2008 Resistance Stranglehold Collector's Edition (gotta love having Hard Boiled in as high def as you'll ever get) Warhawk Tony Hawk Project 8 Assassin's Creed The Godfather: Don's Edition Motorstorm MLB 07: The Show Guitar Hero III Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection
And in 2008 I'll be picking up at a minimum
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune Burnout Paradise GTA IV Devil May Cry 4 Rock Band Ratchet and Clank Killzone 2 LittleBigPlanet MGS4
20 games in the 1.5-2 years of owning the console - not bad in my book (and honestly I haven't had the time to play a lot of some of the games I've bought to date i.e. 1 1/2 seasons in MLB, 2 seasons in NCAA, only about half way through Stranglehold).
And I have the 60GB model...so to replicate the wireless, HDMI, and high def I got for $600 bucks with a 360, I would have had to spend pretty much the same amount of money

^^^last I checked you agreed that there were no solid titles on the PS3.
name 1 title thats a big hit and that makes it ok to spend $400/$600 on a console just to play that game...much like GT 5 will be. There just simply aren't any out to date. Uncharted is about the best we've got on the PS3. I don't know why you people take it so personally. Its not like you developed the console. Besides, its still a fairly new console compared to the Xbox360 so its expected to not have a solid library until several years later. Xbox360 was the same way.
^dude wtf are you talking about? this thread gets the least of my attention. and wtf is your of your? english much?

Goalie that's great that you have so many titles, no one is telling you that you made bad decisions - I mean whatever floats your boat is fine by me, we all have different tastes. I certainly dont care about this whole 'justifying the cost of the system thing'. Can't we move on from that argument?
Of the titles you listed that you own, only one interests me and that's GHIII. And I'd rather have that on the 360 SOLELY becuase of Live and Achievements. And before PS3 stalwarts roast me, just think about it for a second. To be frank, if they are the EXACT SAME TITLE - what is odd about me choosing it on the 360 cause I have 100 friends on my list that I'd like to either play with online, or I'd like to be online if they want to invite me to something, plus the acheivements are fun to get. You may not care about that, but I do. So please don't retort in kind. I'm not trolling here, it's my preference, and an honest one.
Your 2008 list has the same thing - Rock Band I'd definitely rather have on 360 cause I can play with friends online, same with Burnout Paradise, GTA IV is different because I want the exclusive 360 content additions. Unless PS3 offers something just a little extra that would otherwise be a complete lateral multi console release...not sure why I would go for the PS3 version since I own both consoles....
I will buy Little Big Planet, MGS4, and potentially Killzone 2 though. 12/14/2007 11:29:49 AM |

solid =! big hit
solid - good game, worth picking up
big hit - unless you hate the genre you should definitely get this.
you're attempting to "argue" that there are no solid games then ask for a list of big hits, all big hits are solid but not all solid games are big hits.
worthwhile =! big hit
you just did it again.

There isn't a single title 'worth' picking up yet. The only one arguably is uncharted and that I'm borrowing from a friend.
If you are ok with poor development then more power to you. I guess i'm spoiled by owning both consoles and am used to having a choice of good games.

I've had enough fun playing Calling All Cars during party's with friends etc. to make the cost of the PS3 worth it alone. You guys' arguments that there are no solid games worth buying the PS3 for is just ridiculous.
What makes any other console worth buying in your eyes? How about the 360? Gears of war to me is totally rad, but according to your logic is it "solid" enough to make the purchase worth it? What about Halo 3? Does that warrant purchasing the console? Mass Effect?
I don't understand your logic at all. You simply just use the higher price point and that is the only argument, but it is totally subjective as you don't take into account any of the functions that the PS3 does out of the box that the 360 cannot out of the box, or at all.
Its all fucking opinions. Both are great consoles, so why do you have to come in here and talk shit about the PS3 just because you don't like it? This thread is for users that have the PS3 in common to talk about the games, give recommendations, give opinions, etc. Not for you miserable bastards to come in and shit on us to try and ague your point to cater to your ego. Give it a fucking rest already.

lolz. You possess that talent as well, trust me.
Please god don't make me rush to defend the 360. I'm not even stooping to that level. I'm really starting to realize that I like this thread much better when people are EXCITED about ps3 games. Part of what disturbs me is that it sinks unless the detractors are in and the regulars are defending home turf and pushing them back. So let's turn the discussion inward. Since I own the console, I'm interested in things for it.
What the hell type of game is calling all cars anyway? Or what's the 1-2 sentence synopsis of it...I'd like to pickup maybe that and fl0w, and like I said, I'd get UT3 if two of these three things happen. 1) at least 3 of you pick it up with mouse and keyboard, lol. 2.) it has adequete CTF maps 3.) actually fuck I don't have a #312/14/2007 12:09:13 PM |

There's not a game worth Dick on the PS3 out right now
By 'worth dick' I mean game I can't get for Xbox360 as well. Every single high rated ps3 game thats exclusive to that system is good but by no stretch of the imagination a "must have."
But SandSanta, the same can be said for xbo..
No. Stop right there. Just shut the fuck up. Halo3, Mass Effect, and BioShock alone decimate the entire PS3 library five times over.

uncharted is a aventure platformer, it has elements of FPS games but is not solely a FPS.
halo - i personally think halo sucks, all 3 of them
resistance is probably my least favorite of the games that i have (i didnt buy it).
warhawk has fps aspects but is more of a flight / vehicle game, not a HEADSHOT! game...
