Where are you getting it? If it is in the states then isn't your math wrong? shouldn't it be around 800 dollars?

edit::whoops, I didn't see that you said "all for under" I misread it as being "all for about". Apologies.

No maths fine, im in Canada. I dislike resistance, good single player, mp just doesnt appeal to me. Plus ive beaten Ninja Gaiden on the xbox, which may seem like a reason not to get it but i know it is amazing. Plus i want ng2 on ps3 so im going to support the original 'remake'. And im already in a clan on Rainbow six, cause im that good lol.

Yeah I know, but im trying to 'catch up' on the ps3 so far. Im a huge software collector, so i need these.

I have an impressive ps2 gamecube collection. Not in number but in really good games. Im going to continue this on Wii and Ps3.

I would ditch Ninja Gaiden and get Heavenly Sword. This is a game that demonstrates what the PS3 can do. Brilliant voice acting, story telling, characters, animation, graphics and awesome combat. It's definitely a game worth owning so you can enjoy it over and over again.

Enjoy and congrats on your new (soon to be) purchase.

Well then it looks good to me. I've played the demos for Skate and Folklore and I really liked them. If I wasnt saving for November games I'd buy them

I'd give Heavenly Sword and Lair some more consideration. They're great games that will really give you a feel for the sixxaxis and PS3 exclusivity. Also, even though you can get it on other platforms,I think that Oblivion is still the best game out for the PS3. I'm a college student and short on cash, so that game gave me hours.

I would recommend Resistance, but I'm assuming you only want to get 1 shooter. Rainbow Six is also very good.

Ha... You're so like me. There are like 8 PS3 games coming out in the next 2 months I want... But I'm first gonna spend $400 on PS2 games I want to add to my collection before they're too rare to get and not dirt cheap. I already got my gamecube collection finished too for my jump to the Wii. I definitely think your choices are good too, I know what you mean about Resistences multiplayer... I feel the same way. I just got it because it was $40 CAD and I wanted a co-op game (Vegas wasn't out yet).

I like GRAW 2 better than R6V. It's less run and gun and more stealth.

Here's a better idea:

60 GB PS3 with Warhawk and Heavenly Sword

Pre-Order (2 of 3)

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Assassins Creed, The Orange Box

If you haven't played Oblivion yet, you should pick it up as soon as you can afford another game. There's more gameplay for your dollar than any other single-player game on the system (or any other for that matter).

YA man you got a good thing going there that game list looks like it covers a lot of bases! You definitely need to pick up Warawk though! IT's, IMO, the best PS3 game out.

i too have LAIR and I think its a good game that requires patience and steadiness for the controls which arent that bad despite reviews.....I had no problems what so ever and everything turned out fine with me...

I dont see any reason in getting skate, and since your a big fan of the rainbow six series then I think one multiplayer shooter will do, plus oblivion is a great game that adds SOOO many hours of gameplay

I think you have a good selection in your games. They have variety. Most other gamers just like to go online with their multiplayer shooters.
