At first I was skeptical because of the BluRay format. I thought BluRay would be a total failure but it's actually done alright.

Ive been doing a lot of research lately. I didn't even know up until a few weeks ago that PSN was FREE (unlike XBL), so that's obviously a plus. We all know about the HEAVY HITTERS that Sony has coming up - God of War 3, Gran Turismo 5, Uncharted 2, inFAMOUS, etc.

But I was searching deep into last years E3 and looked at what Sony has in the pipe for gamers even in 2010, and it looks very promising. So much so that I'm gonna bite the bullet and just buy a damn Ps3 already.

Nobody seems to talk about these exclusives yet...

Anyways. I'm no fanboy. Check my post history. I only own a 360 right now, and no other consoles. Just been searching up what I'll be getting myself into and thought Id share. I always planned on getting a Ps3, so finally I will get it. I was hoping there would be a price cut but oh well. I want to play games.

Wrong. And Heavy Rain's been talked about a lot... LA Noire fell off the map... and twisted metal is still technically a rumor. All of them will be great when they release though.

hey guys EBgames here in canada has a deal where you get the 160GB Ps3 for $500.

BUT --- It comes with Uncharted, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue, and Little Big Planet.

I also saw the same $500 Ps3 at bestBuy and it ONLY comes with Uncharted (no LBP or GT5P).

if you can get a cheaper PS3 with a smaller HDD get that, and upgrade the HDD yourself it should work out much cheaper.

That does make sense because on metacritic, that was a chart listing how many good and bad 360, Wii and PS3 games are available, and it turns out that the Wii has way more bad games than both consoles, it was more than I expected.

wow that's amazing.

but your better off buying a PS3 on craigslist assuming you live in an urban area. there are TONS of good deals there. You'll probably find many deals such as $350 for a PS3 and 4 games and 2 controllers.

Actually I don't think it would. 400 for 80 gig, but this one comes with 2.5 games (GT5P is a [really big] demo of sorts) + 80 gigs more space for only a $100. I think thats a good deal, just make sure the games are properly shrink wrapped and not previously used.

Plus you could always upgrade HD later and just buy a case for the 160GB and make it a 2.5 external.

Also congrats (the KZ bundle is only available in the European region)

Eat. Sleep. Play. has been working on it for a while, Jaffe has hinted it, and there was a code in the anniversary edition release of Twisted Metal Black which said "Twisted Metal PS3" (as in its being worked on). Its basically all but confirmed, but I wouldn't expect it until late 2010 anyways.

The Agency, while it looks cool, it not exclusive, neither is D.C. Universe Online, please don't do what the lems do, which is to rely on 360/PC games.

I almost bought a PS3 about 2 yrs ago, I loved my PS2 and I really wanted one. The price never scared me away, but the fact XBOX live is so much easier to use and just plain better, it was hard for me not to buy an xbox. Dont get me wrong, i had a optical drive problem, but so many of my friends have an xbox 360, it's hard to stay away. The xbox has better games, community, and industry support, though M$ is not the most faithful company out there I like the fact it moves arounf my PC gaming ways, the XBOX 360 has more PC type gamers IMO. If it was me if you have the cash get the PS3, Blu Ray is the seller!
