Re: PS3 or not

Europe has these shiny new bundles which have some great value but there isn't a price cut yet. Some UK sites are offering really good value bundles which would make it definitely worth getting so have a look around to see if there are some dutch sites doing them. If you can wait a few months there is rumors about a price cut before Christmas but that could be wrong.

Re: PS3 or not

I really enjoy my PS3, just got heavenly sword yesterday, amazing game.
I believe there will be a price cut around christmas though, I don't think its rumor.

Home is also getting released to all for free on Oct. 11, could get pushed back, hopefully won't.

Honestly, It's your opinion though X, don't get it just because some of us say it's a great system, or don't not get it because someone says it sucks.

Honestly, there are not many flaws in the system. It is a bit of a repeat of PS2. It's biggest advancement is the graphics capability which is gorgeous. If you really want it, go ahead and get it.

I'd wait and see if there's a price drop, and make sure Sony doesn't stop caring about the PS3.

People who begin their sentences with "honestly" are usually lying.


Honestly, unless there are games out NOW that you absolutely can't live without, wait until it's cheaper.
It also helps if they're platform exclusives, otherwise the 360 version will have achievements and the possibility of downloadable content.

Re: PS3 or not

It's up to you mate. I have one, ad if you want me to be brutally honest, I haven't been playing it much recently, but just started in the past few days. Rumour has it that the price drop will be in MARCH, when AAA titles GTA4 and exclusive MGS4 come out, thats what I read a few plaes, but we'll see eh.

And yea, if there are games you want then go for it, it is a good system after all, they all are. Heavenly Sword looks amazing, and from now onwards is when all of the good games are going to start coming out for it so if you really wnat one now is the bst possible time.

Honestly, that surprised me too Lupus. I just don't want you pulling all of that same dirt you do at GG. You have a problem that you need to control.

Re: PS3 or not

Phat, it's just a joke.
Some of you take things way to serious, and by showing him that you get angrier makes it all the more funny. You just seem so un-humerous and weak minded to get so defensive and personal about some jokes that aren't even directed towards anyone. Laugh, have a good time, and don't act like somethings poking your a$$.
This is a forum, not real life, were on the internet. You seem like the actual jerk for getting so pissy over nothing.

P.S.- Don't edit my post.

I like the Phatman..always have. But as a MOD he is the equivalent to the military DAISY CUTTER. Rips and removes posts like a commando.

Maybe I deserved that, but I am no commando by any means. Forcystus doesn't mind me keeping his forum cleaned up. But lets get back to the topics guys.

So X, have you decided to get it?
