Richard Hammond Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Not owned a PS3 for a while now the last big game i played was Uncharted 1, im buying a PS3 again sometime this week because the 360 i got for free went ###### up and its out of warranty and i dont feel like shelling out for another potential RROD box so........ On my list of games to play are: Red Dead Redemption Yakuza 3 Uncharted 2 Heavy Rain Infamous Modnation Racers Killzone 2 Little Big Planet Im not into PSN games and i am pretty much up to date on multiplatform games so they arent really a priority, are there any games that ive missed that are worth renting/borrowing/buying, i apologise if this is the 100000000th of these kinds of threads.

Sikh Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 So, you got a 360 for free, it RROD'd and you think buying a NEW ONE with a JASPER CHIP will red ring? Way to add that in there..... Oh but wait you know, once you use 1 360 you have used all of them.... and PS3's dont YLOD or RLOD or loose blu ray drives every now and then without ANY SUPPORT FROM SONY besides the $150+ crap. But microsoft gives you 3 years even on newer jasper consoles. Oh the irony. Now to the list of games, infamous/killzone 2(even thou lack of multiplayer only a year after game release, gj sony)/Heavy rain/LBP. I was gonna say modnation but finally played it, its a bit of a disappointment. Long as load times, fail downloads, really? Come on sony. They wont ever learn.

GreatStalin Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I'm not too well up on all the big games, but I'm pretty sure you should be adding Demon's Souls to that list! Without a doubt one of the best PS3 games out there. Also the God of War classics (if not previously played!) and GoW 3 are also recommended!

Nice generalisation there without knowing the facts, ive owned and used many xbox 360s some ive sold because i got bored of them, some ive sold because i needed the money, some have just crapped out for no reason whatsoever, dont take what i said as a bash on microsoft i just dont feel like spending a couple of hundred for a console i already owned i just feel the time is now to get a PS3 with GT5 round the corner, the Last Guardian coming and possibly ICO/Shadow of the Colossus HD remasters.

Oh thats all I was hoping for. The blatant "it rrod and i dont want to get a new one" always makes people to sound like all will rrod. We are over it. I still havent seen sony fix the ylod/rlod or blu ray issues. Hell my brothers PS3 Slim was sent in because his blu ray drive would eat ps1 games and freeze for no reason. It was in the open and everything. if Shadow of Colossus comes back, hell ill fire up my brothers PS3. Also, with all the hype around all of sonys big games and each one failed somehow, i have no hope for GT5. They will probably end up making it 720p because "theres so much going on, this couldnt of been done in 1080"(basically what they said with gow3) yet they boast about how there system is so epic in 1080p. I have no more faith left in sony. Only successful games ive seen are Uncharted 1/2 and LBP. Killzone lost multiplayer in December basically. Brother got slim in november from amazon with infamous and killzone, and 2 weeks of playing and no more servers. Way to go sony (Y). GOW3 was a epic fail. 4 years of holding us back and all they managed was 8-10 hours of gameplay and 720p even with lag and a few glitches? 4 YEARS? really? Good job sony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DPyro Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Looks like someone is a little bias toward PS3. God of War 3 is a great game, I have no clue wtf your talking about with servers - Killzone 2 online worked fine last I checked a few days ago. GT5 will be a system seller as usual. Please GTFO if your going to be so negative towards a console just because someone else is fed up with your preferred console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways Richard I'm more of a PSN gamer so I can't really help you out... unless you like anime-ish games like Disgaea or Valkyria Chronicles. Fun stuff XD LingeringSoul and rajputwarrior 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killmaster84 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I would say ModNation were the load times are killer, it's still a really fun game with some mates. Reminded how competitive split screen gaming can get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey I can be a troll to! +1 Anyways Richard I'm more of a PSN gamer so I can't really help you out... unless you like anime-ish games like Disgaea or Valkyria Chronicles. Fun stuff XD i've been wating to try valkyria chronicles for a while. Killzone 2 is an AWESOME game, traded in ff13 for it and not regretting it. The AI in that game is damn smart. A lot of fun, for 30 bucks you can't go wrong. Currently playing that game right now on my ps3. Also if you like sports/fighting games UFC 2010 is an awesome game too (Y) really hard though. Tried heavy rain, got bored quick. If i wanted to watch a movie i would watch a movie... Apparently red dead is amazing, haven't played it though. never heard anything negative about it.

Hedon Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 I can't imagine owning a PS3, selling a PS3 for awhile, owning a PS3 again, or owning a 360 a couple times, selling it a couples times. I would just have your Xbox 360 repaired. Sounds like you have had hundreds of Xbox 360s over the past 4 years. I would imagine you have the newest one, which should still be under warranty. I would just get it fixed for free, and also buy a PS3 so that you have both. BTW, with the YLOD issues on the PS3 growing, be warned that you might want to buy their new protection plan just in case. I wish they had it when my PS3 YLOD. Out of your list, Heavy Rain, Red Dead and Uncharted 2 are the only ones I would buy. They rock. I would also get SOCOM Confrontation, especially if you can find it with the official bluetooth headset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive only had 1 PS3 and i sold it because i got fed up of waiting for GT5 its just round the corner as well as a few other games im waiting for like the Last Guardian. Ive not had hundreds of 360s, maybe 6-7, i always buy one because a game comes out i really want then i get bored because there is nothing out that is not on the PC that i want to play so i sell it on till the next game comes out. The latest 360 i had was a freebie from a friend, it has no warranty sticker so im guessing hes been fiddling around inside it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedon Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Never heard of a slim ylod Visit us over at www.playstation.com forums. Plenty of them reported there.

The latest 360 i had was a freebie from a friend, it has no warranty sticker so im guessing hes been fiddling around inside it. I bought my PS3 specifically for GT5. I think I am OVERLY excited for that game now. I am fine with Forza 3, Race Pro 09, GT Prologue and GT Academy until then though. Whenever THEN is :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
