Oh yeah, I forgot about "Blu-Ray"infamous_27It is a selling point. For him, it was the best choice for a variety of reasons, and I am inclined to agree. I wouldn't say he will never game on it, as he is a nerd like most of us are, but it was not what he got it for originally.
barely anyone owns a ps3 here in the philippines...
if he does have one, i'd assume he has to be a hardcore gamer..
unfortunately for sony, here in the philippines, people prefer the PsP, and are more prone to DL games..
*oh and by the way, Manny Pacquiao just demolished Dela Hoya... sorry, had to do it.. :P
almost everyone i know who owns a current gen console only owns a PS3, so basically i know casuals, hardcore, so-so, you name itst1kaThat's because you live in bizarro world!
When I say casual, I mean people that barely play once a week and has a library of games like Sing Star and Buzz. I'm pointing this out because I know I'll be bashed on calling players hardcore and casual....i dont know many ppl with a ps3 and when i ask if my friends that do have one they'd rather play some casual game like motostorm some socom which is a casual shooter. dont start me on how socom is casual do u know how many south texans will buy a game just to shoot terrorists? alot. most ps3 owners i know use it strictly for BR, even then they dont use it often. my friends list is a wasteland. although i have one friend who plays MGO and age of booty with me. sony makes LBP, R2, Motorstorm 2, 3 or 4 singstars, and 2 or 3 buzzes this year along with another ratchet rehash in 2008, starting to upset me though psn has some good games
All the people I've met with a PS3 are hardcore players.infamous_27
My dad got it (at my recommendation) when he got an HDTV. He needed a Blu ray player, and at the time, it was the best option. Turns out, he really likes Flow... something I didn't expect. I got him Call of Duty, and he plays it once in a blue moon. So yeah, my dad is a casual PS3 user.
And how do you spot a casual PS3 user? When you visit them and turn on the system, they havn't applied last months firmware update.
Some people might conisder me a casual... I don't know what do you think?
I play whenever I feel like it, which can range from 0-15 hours per week. Depending on how busy, or bored, or whatever I am doing.
yup 3 guys from my work, but i'm not sure about on of them

Strange though. Surely any guy who would admit to playing Singstar or Buzz probably wouldn't be casual, seeing as if you were to be so open about it...? Well I'm generalising, but still, so many macho morons would laugh at the idea. If all anyone played was CoD 4, I would say they were more casual gamers because of the limited scope of genre they adopt.
My father owns a PS3 and uses it exclusively for Blu-Ray. What is wierd is that he bought Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and Grand Theft Auto 4 and has never opened/played either game. He owns like 40 blu ray movies last time I visited him.CWEBB04zLove that tackle. Welker got owned.

Well for me its different...
All the Ps3 owners I know are casuals
and all the Ps3 owning regulars in my store are either casuals, or have 360's and dont play thier Ps3's
I think thanks to the blu-ray player , alot of the owners are casuals
