[QUOTE="jeffbase33"]

Well I thought I would give Gamefly another chance after being disappointed a few years ago. Since my gaming time is so limited, it takes me a long time to beat a game. Like a month at minimum. Last year, I bought all these PS3 games at full retail, and they are still factory sealed waiting to be played.

I figured Gamefly would satisfied my craving to briefly experience the new releases while I slowly beat the older games. Working on Ratchet right now. What a waste of money! Their shipping and turn around time is horrible. For $25 bucks, I got to play a total of 3 games. It takes 2 weeks for them to receive and send me a new game. And forget playing new releases. I had Turok on the top of my queue list. They mailed me Burnout instead which was 12 on my queue list. Why bother with them if you have to wait 3 months before getting to play a game?

Forget renting, I am back to owning again.

Just buy a game pass at blockbuster or hollywood video. Some blockbusters I know still give you an extra week to return games as well as movies.

I will never use Game-Fly again and the Game-Passes from Blockbuster are just as bad if not worse! I had quit Game Fly and after a few months I had decided, WTH I'll give it another try. I own all three systems and it was going to get expensive fast buy games for all three! The first thing I did was rent a game for the Wii, for the kids couldn't even tell you what it was, maybe money ball or something and Heavenly Sword for my PS3!

Monkey Ball showed up a week and a half later and Heavenly sword never made it! I figured I'd give it another day or two, but alas it was lost! I was fed up... I cancelled the sevice by the end of the month so I wouldn't get charged the 25 bucks and filed a complaint that the charge should be pro-rated since I only got 1 on the games. Never got an answer, but come to find they got there lost game back. Got an email back.. you know the notifier emails that tell you whats out and whats shipped and it said that Heavenly sword was returned... blah blah blah!

I hope they go bankrupt cause they simply suck... *Simply My Two Cents*

Nintendo in 1985 was a bastard - you want that to happen again?

And their hubris lead them to make stupid mistakes with the N64 hardware. Sony KILLED them with the PS1. Sony actually improved the game industry by offering mature content and titles.

So, competition IS a good thing, provided game makers learn something.

Nintendo, is the main reason you have consoles to discuss and *war over* after the whole Atari / quarter arcade crash. Nintendo revitalized the home console and did this by ensuring the quality of games with there Nintendo quality emblem on every game. If it didn't have the emblem you didn't buy it! And Sony's direct competition wasn't Nintendo per-say but the multitude of consoles like the CD32 and 3DO, it was these systems that tried to hard and just didn't get the market and to go along with the theme of this forum Charged to much that enabled the PS1 To Dominate at half the price! http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=3DO

oo i meant as the memory card readers and

i try-ed using usb device to put in songs and videos but it didint work and my Friend told me the only way of putting songs is ripping it off of cds

This is true, and now with vista you can format your flash drive to NTFS instead of FAT32.... Don't the 360 doesn't read that file format... I own both the PS3 and The 360 I don't find playing my PS3 appealing unless it to play my BR disc's! I do love achievements and consider myself an achievement whore of sorts. I have a Flash Drive dedicated to my 360 and that way I don't have to use its hard-drive to store music...

Thats my 2 cents***

Like the PS3 the 360 has a few setting to fiddle with to get it how you like it. Make sure under console settings or what ever you change the video to 720p. Other wise your playing in 480P.

What a fine and unbiased source you got that info from.travt-down

Again, I was searching "HOME" and stumbled across this, I figured it would lure PS3 fans in here to talk, but alas it would seem no one cares about HOME anymore

I found this site: http://www.ps3fanboy.com/photos/ten-reasons-why-the-ps3-is-still-relevant/677507/There you'll find there top ten reasons to keep your PS3 or get a PS3! Didn't care for there reasons much, except for a few that mention HOME, Finally a rumble controller and the in game chat function to be a function. Someone please, tell me they know when home is coming out!

I am currently useing my PS3 for Blu-Ray movies. The last time I posted on the PS3 forum I was modded for asking PS3 owners there opinion about keeping my PS3 or not, honestly I couldn't believe it. Modded for Trolling, because someone decided the way I asked my question was offensive. *pfft* what ever! Anyway, I'm considering this a form of research if you will. The link I've provided could be good or could be BS, I need someone here to possibly post a concrete answer on whats going on with HOME and what it'll actually do for the PSN's on-line gaming experience, cause honestly right now I'm put off by all the drops from the servers and not having a friends list that can be brought from game to game, in game chat, acheivments are a big thing and so on!

Basically the 360's experience on the PSN is what HOME is claiming and more right?!?!? Again, I'm asking for help not knocking the PS3! So no tears and telling on me cause I'm mean... TrOlLiNG, unbelievable....

Why did you buy a PS3 in the first place? This seems like a flaimbait to me and I can see why you got modded.l-_-l

First of all thank you, I don't know why I was modded for *trolling* just for asking this same question Here!!!. Secondly I own all three systems. The Wii is my kids and the PS3 (Which was a Christmas gift) is my blu-ray player at the moment & the 360 gets all of my gaming attention. I can't stand PSN because there's no friends list that carrys over from game to game like the 360, the in game chat function is crap and honestly there's no games I'd like to play Home is suppose to fix this and I'm really hoping that the PS3 gets out of its funk, but it just seam like it's gonna!I didn't like resistance but am interested in HAZE and Kill-Zone 2. My biggest quirk with the PS3 is I love the ease of the 360's interface and functionality and I just can't believe how the PS3 didn't pick up on this!

Ok, I asked this question on the PS3 forum and got modded, sorry for posting this on the wrong forum. Honestly, I'm in a bind of sorts. I feel that my PS3 could easily be replaced by a DVD-Player that up converts! I bought a 99 dollar DVD-Player that up converts my movies and honestly the quality is good. I bought the Best Buy PRP and if I wanted to I can take my PS3 back and get a voucher for credit at best buy and use that 450 buck so spend on what ever else I want i.e the rest of the 360 games I want this year. This is the Kicker thought, I honestly feel that PS3 isn't going anywhere and HOME is eventually going to come out and when it does I'm going to kick myself for getting rid of it. I know I could just re-buy it if it does but that will prove difficult since my wife isn't a gamer... anyone with a wife would understand! Any way I'm not trying to hurt PS3 owners feeling here so just if you could, an honest opinion would be nice. Thanks!
