Just wait. Yep you heard me right, just wait. PS3 has alot of potential as you guys may be aware of and it's created by an industry leader but at the end of the day actions speak louder then words, so for now we all have to just wait. Playstation 3 is definitely a great console for the long term and people whohave one or are planning to buy one just have to trust Sony interms of great games, honestly did Sony not deliver with the PS1&2 ?so this means they have a great track record of delivering what gamers want.

Guys I'm not implying that PS3 sucks right now I'm just saying that if you want to experience the most out of PS3 well then you just have to wait.

lets see what PS3 offers now though.

As you can see if you pick up a PS3 right now you are sure to get alot of fantastic features and lets not forget FREE ONLINE PLAY

oh and lets not forget what PS3 offers now game-wise, after all games are the most important aspect of a console. So far the PS3 has these quality titles: RFOM, Uncharted, R&C Future, Motorstorm, Warhawk, Heavenly sword, UT3, Folklore and along with the multi-plat AAA titles you all know and love; Assassins Creed, COD4, Oblivion etc

Knowing all this if you still believe PS3 is not worth purchasing, well my friend then you just have to wait, wait till PS Home, MGS4, FF13, KZ2, LBP, Ingame XMB, GOW3, GT5, White Knight, Rumble etc. Simply Just wait. You had to wait for PS2's top titles like MGS2 which came a year & a half later along with GT3, DMC etc.

PS3 is a system which is here to stay, heck it's already got 6 million customers and I'm sure its gonna increase, Sony have delivered before and they will deliver again but in the mean time, Just Wait :)

People don't drop 400 to 600 bucks on something to wait until it's good. I really wish people would stop thinking this is a valid point. Or perhaps, you aren't thinking at all.

Well if what PS3 offers right now is not enough for you then you guys might as well wait to buy a PS3 next year. I haven't got a PS3 and don't plan on buying one till MGS4 but in no way do I believe the PS3 is a bad purchase now.

PS3 is built for the long term, it's a proper HD platform even though HD is still not mainstream, in about 2 years time when most homes will have HD you can bet that PS3 will be the purchase due to Blu-ray after all most people bought PS2 as their first DVD player. Game-wise PS3 has 2008 & 2009 covered with awesome games as well as killer apps along with great features like PS Home etc.

PS3 will last till atleast 2012/13 and I don't expect many people to get one until a year or two after release, like the PS2

for me the two words are "no games"

We bought a PS3, as much for the Blu-Ray player for movies as we did for games. BUT, of course we want to use it for games.

I had (and sold) an xbox 360 last year. Right now, we are using the PS3 for movies and downloading a few game demos...but I'm almost to the point of going out and getting an Xbox 360 becasue of the wider variety of games (and more importantly, a larger number of games that have been around for a while and are selling for less money).

If the PS3 gets a lot more games and more at a lower price point by the spring, fine. If not...I think we'll be getting a 360 again and picking up a blu-ray player (that should be well below $200 by then) and selling the PS3.

And before anyone tells me about all the great games the PS3 has...they may be great for you, but not us. We are waiting for casual/mid level games, like Eternal Sonata, Viva Pinata...stuff like that.

I have two words that discribe the ps3 either

BLU RAY

OR

OVER RATED.

either one describes how I feel about my ps3. If My ps3 didn't have a blu ray player it would be gone.

Ok. So I could buy a PS3 for 300-400 pounds and 'just wait'.

OR I could wait for the PS3's good games (MGS4 mainly) to come out and buy the console for a lot cheaper.

Now please tell me the logic in 'just waiting'.

I am the troll? I did not make this silly thread. It is the dumbest thing to buy the most expensive console but TC's only advice it to wait :lol: It is not like PS3 has only been out a couple months now but instead it has been over a year.

Also I seriously doubt you have all 3 consoles. I have seen your troll posts also.

Haha i did and regret every minute of it. Free online is nice but it sucks. I have RFOM and that game is really a nothing game. I have Warhawk and to me it feels like a PS2 game. So everyone dont make the mistake i did and JUST WAIT.

It's funny. If Sony fans took their own advice and waited for the games to come out and a price drop before getting one. PS3 wouldn't be around today.

Do you think a thread with just wait at the beginning and end of your point is really helping the PS3's image on SW? you have a point though, the PS3 may be worth considering this time next year.

If I could sum this thread up into two words, those words would be "Heard this", and if I wanted to add one more, it would be "before", and if I could add a couple more words they would be "a bajillion times before it's not a very creative thing do something or stop talking about something you apparently don't want to associate with".

Looking at that diagram made me realise that instead of getting an MP3 player, I will just get a PS3 and carry it around. (There is no point in including in the math that MP3 & CD player bought alone will cost x amount whereas it will be better to buy a PS3) . Mind you 360 plays them aswell, but I never mention it as part of justification for its price.

I honestly think PS3 is just waiting for 08 to become good. I didnt wait to buy one becasue: 1. I wanted Blu-Ray. 2. I wanted Resistence and Motorstorm 3. I was excited for its upcoming games.

PS3 will last until at least 2018. Sony believes in 10 year life cycles for their consoles. Which makes sense since the game discs will pretty much last the rest of your life.

lol I just created a topic about just wait because it seems that the 360 fan-boys have absolutely no idea what the PS3 offers now, they assume that PS3 has nothing to offer right now when it clearly does (read my two posts on the first page)

Microsoft has brainwashed the 360 owners into thinking that PS3 doesn't have any games, thus far PS3 has the features and the qualty titles to warrant a purchase, PS3 fans are not waiting as some of you might think to play games they are already playing great games such as RFOM, Uncharted, UT3, R &C Futureetc

oh and the reason I don't have a PS3 yet iswell I personally never bought a Playstation console until the launch of either a MGS game or a Tekken game.

And that still doesn't change any of the points I highlighted. You basically contradicting everything you said. Stop complaining about the whole "Just Wait" phrase when you yourself are doing that "Just Waiting"

Stop complaining about Lemmings being the ones that say "Just Wait" because you and a bunch of other people who aren't lemmings are doing the same thing.

what do you mean by just wait, are you saying that no one is playing the PS3 and is just simply sitting their waiting :?

PS3 has LOTS of quality titles, this whole just wait thing is about sales and sales only. PS3 already has the games and the sales are picking up worlwide. I reckon once PS3 & 360 are neck-n-neck (believe me it will happen next year) this whole just wait thing will disappear.

Most of you haven't even bothered reading my topic before posting ! if yo guys had bothered to ready I said PS3 offers alot now and the price is justified considering how much you get, the 360 fan-boys assume the PS3 fans are waiting when they clearly are enjoying their games and the system in general.

Maybe if you fanboys get your faces out of Microsofts *** you would realise that PS3 has quality titles and a bright future but for some reason you are blinded by Microsoft into bashing a company which has always delivered console-wise.

Swift_Boss_A

I disagree. When you look at NPD data for software sales its clear that, in America, most PS3 owners are just waiting. The PS3 has roughly half the install base of the 360. Mutli-plats on the PS3 should be selling about 50% of what they do on the 360. Instead, they either getting tripled or coming close to it. PS3 exclusives aren't even in the Top 10. You may not want to call it waiting, but its clear that they're at least "holding off."

On a side note...

PS3 has LOTS of quality titles, this whole just wait thing is about sales and sales only. PS3 already has the games and the sales are picking up worlwide. I reckon once PS3 & 360 are neck-n-neck (believe me it will happen next year) this whole just wait thing will disappear.



Stuff like that comment above is why people take such pleasure in bashing the PS3 and cows in general. Yes, the PS3 has a decent amount of good games, and yes it is getting some great exclusives next year. That being said, it seems like Cows are expecting some magical shift in sales to Wii-like proportions when said exclusives are released. The only thing that will change is the PS3 will go from the most expensive console with a mediocre games library to the most expensive console with a few great exclusives in its library.

The reason the PS2 won last generation was because it had such a ridiculously large game library that there was something everyone wanted, not because it had the best exclusives. Heck I know some families that had two or three, just because everyone wanted one to play the games they wanted. I really don't see that happening with the PS3, because of both the price and the fact that it no longer has biggest games library (something which will not change for the forseeable future).

People don't drop 400 to 600 bucks on something to wait until it's good. I really wish people would stop thinking this is a valid point. Or perhaps, you aren't thinking at all.

Actually they do. People bought CD players well before there were many albums out on CD. I got mine a full three years before the Beatle albums were released on CD. And the same with DVD players.

Oh but I forgot, this is the 21st century where the word "patience" has lost it's meaning and opinion=fact. Especially in the age of instant messaging, instant oatmeal, entertainment on demand, instant movie sequels. By law we have to stamp our feet and scream "I WANT IT NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOOOOOOOOOOOOOW" or it isn't good.

LOL... its hard to even respond to this. The Beatles haven't recorded new music since the 70s. Because an album wasn't instantly re-released doesn't mean that there were few albums available. You should have listed a new album for the era that you bought it. That would make sense at least. Its like saying there are few Blu-Ray/HD-DVD movies available (despite the fact that EVERY new movie is released in Blu-Ray or HD-DVD) because you can't buy Planet of the Apes (the 60s one) yet.

LOL @ this too. The argument fails because we ARE living in the 21st century. Why would you make moves and plans as if we aren't? If you have the option, you should always base things off of reality rather than fantasy. The results will be more realistic by default.
