lol you bought a ps3. that sucks for you man. genfuyung

this is the type of posts that give fanboys a bad name, way to contributre to the thread man!

what a bunch of ridiculous reasonsresistancemang

if youre referring to the initial post, I do not believe that they are ridiculous. think about it, if sony fixes even some of the afformetnioned issues, the system would be on much more in my house as compared to the wii or 360

You could have bought an old xbox to get Ninja Gaiden black... and sell it after...

Jesus, peoples now a day...

actually if you read my rant, you will notice that I own a 360, but I did fail to mention that I have both the original Xbox Ninja Gaiden, and NG Balck. So as you can see, I am a big fan of this game, hence I own a PS3 now. You may state that this is idiotic, but there are plenty of features which do not appear in the previous incarnations. Besides, I know that the next installment is going to be on the DS, so without saying that will be the day I own a DS. (you see where I'm going with all of this?)

Wow, I cannot believe that there are people out there still complaining about paying 50 bucks a year. You know, I waste more than that per month on booze and lottery tickets.

If you are going to b!tch about having to pay 50 dollars a year for such great and dedicated service, you have no business buying a $600 console or evem more expensive PC.

I did not know that E3 got turned into a competition...

but I am most interested in seeing the next Ninja Gaiden.

Just for clarification...

I do live in the U.S. and have a new 60gb version of the PS3. I have not played anything online yet, but for reference my id is: randosnuf. I have not signed up for the paid functionality of the store, since I do not feel it is worth while, neither this or the VC can hold a candle to Live marketplace.

I am enjoying the good game that the PS3 has now, as well as some older great PS2 games, but these along with other consoles and their great games, will all cease to exist once I have Sigma in hand.

Well, with Sigma just around the corner, I gave in and bought a PS3. I was actualy happy to throw away a weeks salary on this new expensive toy as NG Sigma is worth that price alone. But as a current 360 and Wii owner, I am somewhat dissapointed by some of the shortfalls I came to discover on the PS3. Ill start with the biggest dissapointments:

1. The system updates, compared to the other two consoles, it is a long process since you are required to download it first then install it, connect the controller, and jump through some other hoops.

2. The above issue also carries over to the downloadable demos. The downloads are about on par with the 360, but having to install the demo you just downloaded just adds to this dissapointing issue.

3. Unappealing Sony Store! The OS looks great (after getting used to it), but the store is a pain to browse through, no where near as appealing and user friendly as the the other two consoles.

4. Internet browser problems. I am unsure if it is just me, but while browsing I often get a message where the system is out of memory, or the page never seems to stop loading.

5. No surround through analog cables. Fom what I understand the only way to get surround sound is through the optical or HDMI cables. (correct me if Iam wrong)

6. Choppy performance when upscaling. While playing San Andreas, I noticed poor frame rates when using the upscaling and smoothing functions to do the 1080p resolution. (should this be happening with old games on such "stellar" hardware?)

7. The controller sometimes loses connectivity and it continues to carry out the last function. This is only a minor issue at the moment since it only lasts a few seconds (forcing me to run off the Athens rooftop platforms in GOW, and crash a car into the Binco store in GTA). But I am seriously contemplating getting a wired controller since this type of thing will mean certain demise with the unfogiving AI found in NG.

Well that is about it, I have had the system for almost a week now and I am trying to finish Resistance as it is the only PS3 game I have. These are just the things I wanted to share, and please understand that I am not trying to bash the PS3 in any way, and I can see real potental "IF" developers put some effort into games like Bethesda did, and not just have some company port a game over.

p.s. the graphics on the demos and PS3 games I have played are on par with the 360 and it is up to the individual's tv and settings to make a good comparison, but anyone claiming that Resistance has better graphics than Gears needs to be slapped with a wet fish untill they realize the garbage they spout
