have you tied Oblivion? I mean this is one of the most addicting games I have played in years, I even heard non rpg fans love this game , , you should give it a try, but if you were not considering it alraedy dont bother getting th egame of the year edition becuase the regular one will do just fine and its cheaper

no i don't get bored with my ps3. Whenever a game gets boring i just listen to music or watch a video on my ps3. I have surround sound and i turn up the pendulum. Theres so much to do with ps3 is unbelieveable. You probably don't have an HDTV

Sorry to hear that. I somewhat felt that way until I started to play R;FoM online and a lot had to do with getting rumble back, I msised rumble when I first left my 360 in the dust and now that I got my DS3 it's like heaven.

yea i get what u mean so im guessing u to rent turok when it comeso ut soon would be a total waste. but if ur all into the final fantasy id say wait for the next one to come out but then again thatll take for ever lol. so yea try oblivion thats like 200 hours and more of gameplay but its diff then final fantasy rpg so im warning u man lol well try turok or half life 2 on the orange box who knows u might be all into that. cya

2 things:

a) It sounds to me like your waiting for the heavy hitters to get a thrill out of your system which is perfectly normal. :D And,

b) Your not getting your money's worth !! what happened to downloading pics and videos onto your system ?!?! What about online multiplayer ?!?! You don't know what your missing man !!!

The PS3 is awesome. Ratchet & Clank has alot of replay value an online play for Warhawk & COD4 is great.

Well I don't feel this way at all but I can say that I am not playing it as much as I will once DMC4 comes out. Like you said MGS and FF drew you in, well these games are coming to the PS3 you just have to wait a little longer. But as another poster said Oblivion is a great game, try that, you can also play online with a lot of games too.

When you play too many videogames, you canget bored of all of videogames altogether.This is life telling you that you need to be more productive and actually do something (like be more social). And no videogames are not social, regardless of online gameplay. 98% of people play against strangers online, and 99% of the time that stranger is a 12 yr old who swears, screams, and shouts rascist sexist and profane slurs. So no, there is no healthy conversation going on in the online videogame world. YOU NEED TO GET OUT MORE! For your own social and psychological health just get out more.

LOL...sounds like you need to get out and meet some''REAL" people. The PS3 shouldn't be the center of your life....it's a gaming system dude. It sounds like the real problem is with you, not the PS3.

Dude i wouldn't worry about it. I've only finished 2 games for my ps3 and i own 5. well i rented and beat HS but yeah so i i've beaten 3 games.

I found that as i got older i played less and less games and thats fine. I know for a fact that there will be games that suck me in. But probably it will never be the same as it used to be. Gaming used to be a bit of a life style now its more of a hobby that i do when I have time for it.

I understand there aren't many smash hits on the PS3 yet I have had mine for about 6 months I love it andhave a 37inch HDTV. But out of the many games I haveowned or rented theonly game I really got sucked into was COD4. To me its the best thing out and Ive had it for two months now and still play daily online or praticing durning arcade mode. But I think 2008 will be the year for PS3 in the mean timeI recommend Gamefly it saves money and let you pick the good out of the bad. So lets hope MGS4,FF13,Killzone 2,GTA4,RE5 comes out soon!!!

yeah i'm getting bored of my PS3 aswell. Its fun and all its just that i'm sick of all the games i have. I was doing fine until COD4 had the update with the match making. Getting tired of campers so decided to quit for a bit. I'm just waiting for Killzone 2 :)
