So I'm considering investing in a used PS3. Have a well priced offer for a system with some accessories and games. Anyone own a ps3 and find it to be well worth it?
What are the "must have" titles for the system right now?

Call of Duty Black Ops. Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 is awesome too. I like Bad Company 2. I think Bad Company 3 is coming out soon. I wanna get Crisis as well. I play strategy games on my Mac.
PS3s are good to use as media centres too. You can download the software for it. Having a blue ray player makes it handy too. It's also free to play online unlike the Xbox.
My PS3 brings me many many hours of entertainment. There's nothing like kicking people's arses after a long day. My girlfriend used to hate the thing but now she's addicted to Call of Duty.

i have a ps3 but i barely play it anymore. i bought a shitton of stuff for it as well.
GET KATAMARI its so fun and yea im aware that's all i ever talk about but oh well. seriously.
i enjoy grand theft auto, too. slapping whores and shooting bitches is virtUal fun.
i dunno what other games. i don't dig/play ps3 that much anymore and i got over it. i think 360 is better for multiplayering or w/e

Migraineur, Is the media center software available through Sony? And I'm assuming it is USB friendly...?
Ellie, what is Katamari???
Thanks for the quick feedback

i used to have a ps3. never was really a big fan of it. it is a great thing if you are looking as a media center thing, but when i bought mine, i bought it planning on using it as a computer as well. since sony took that away from us, i sold mine on ebay. personally, i prefer the xbox 360, but to each their own, right?
the good about the ps3 is that you can easily upgrade the HDD with whatever size you want.
also, my ps3 was usb friendly for just about anything usb i plugged in

I love my PS3. Black Ops and Battlefield: Bad Company 2 are awesome. Some like one and hate the other, but I enjoy both. And LittleBigPlanet. LBP is fucking awesome. I also use mine for Netflix. Totally worth the money.

definitely worth it, i mostly mine though as an HTPC streaming MKV files to it from my computer w/ ps3mediaserver..
in terms of ps3 originals... little big planet, infamous, unchartered 2, and god of war 3 are all worth checking out.

external hard drives with the ps3 isn't that great though, as it only supports fat32, so 4gb file size limits

I definitely think its worth it, and i'm not a "consol gamer". So, if i'm sitting here and DONT play video games on it and still find it worth it - then as someone who plays video games, I'd assume you'd find value in it aswell.
Netflix through it is nice, blueray is wonderful, new games are great (whenever i do play them), and the old games youc an download off the store are dope too (think MK3).

i have a ps3 and i love it. will never go back to xbox. everyone i know who has a ps3 loves it. those who claim they like their xbox have never owned a ps3. you can do so much more with your ps3 than an xbox, and the online gameplay is for free. dont let them tell you the online isnt as good as xbox because that is bullshit, you wont be able to tell the difference from psn and xbox live.

Why wouldn't they do ntsc? That is somewhat of a drag. Thanks for that heads up tho.
Anyways, I bought a 160gb one used for $300 Still under the original warrenty and came with lots of xtras
GT5 + logitech GT racing wheel God of war 3 Little big planet Heavy rain Uncharted 2 Sports champions + move controller + eye cam He also put in a 12' HDMI cable
Originally he offered it for 250 but I wanted to know why he was selling it and he said he had lost his job and needed money bad. I knew I was getting a steal so I told him id throw in an extra 50 cause I felt for him.

so far the wheel is difficult with GT5 I don't have a good setup for it yet. Anyone have any tips on what to mount it too?

I have both xbox 360 and PS3 and play them/like them equally.
but I had both systems hooked up to a 1080 Tv and the PS3 seemed to run smoother and with better graphics than the xbox

Thats bc PS3 is 1080p, and suckfest 360 is only 720p.
Hey Op, check out the unconventional games also. Darksiders, Prototype, FFX13(FFX13-2 is coming out soon!). Right now Bioshock is fricking awesome! Castlevania pisses on GOW, and i loved GOW's. Uncharted's are fun for a day. Buy your stuff off ebay, not retail.
FYI, you need a 1.3a HDMI for the PS3. The standard 1.3c will burn out eventually. They are hard to find, so look well. They can be had for less than $10 on amazon.
If it's heavily hyped, it will be a letdown.

Actually the Xbox 360 has 1080p too. Why tell him about 3rd party games on the PS3 when it has so many good first party games?
Metal Gear Solid 4 is an awesome game if you played MGS 1 & 2. 3 Doesn't have much to do with them.
Heavy Rain Uncharted 1 & 2 are good too. If you're into Japanesse RPG's then the PS3 has got them. Plus the 3rd party games they have been mentioning.

Of the aforementioned RPGs (own all of them), Dragon Age is by far the best imho. I think they box it with the expansion fairly cheaply these days.

Aye, DA2 pretty much sucks. The story lacks direction (ended up skipping through much of the dialogue because I just didn't care - the characters weren't interesting), the dungeons are extremely repetitive... and it was just way too easy....
The original Dragon Age though is the best RPG i've played in some time... Great game, recommend it fully.
Unless you're very loyal to the FF Franchise, I'd skip FFXIII. It's great eye candy, but so extremely linear and boring (it literally feels like you're running down one path the entire game)...and the story was fairly mediocre (compared to epicness of FF7). It do prefer its combat system to the other FF games I've played though.
If you can get past how annoyingly difficult Demon Soul is, it's a fairly decent game... Just be prepared to die to all sorts of random bullshit (booby traps, pits on the ground you didn't notice, etc) and then repeating much of a zone all over again because of it...

Bayonetta is worth 10$ it's basically god of war but with chicks and guns
i enjoyed the WET demo but reviews demolished it
You might enjoy overlord, but it's not polished at all (it was fun first but it gets so repetitive and the unpolishedness made me give up after 2 hours of playing) but i like how the game doesn't take itself seriously
eternal sonata.. never played it but i hear it's brilliant
and unless you have a immense dragon fetish lair isn't worth getting over bayonetta or eternal sonata, i would look up some reviews on these 2 and decide what one fits you best

Metal Gear Solid 4 is my personal favorite for the system.
Dragon Age 1 is only like 20 bucks. It's a steal at that price considering all the content. I'm about 50 hours into it and I haven't even bought the expansion, or downloaded any extra quests. Good stuff.
Demon's Souls is one of the most bad ass games I've ever played. If you don't mind a challenge than definitely pick that up to. It should be around $20 or $30
Black Ops had the best campaign of the other COD's (imo). Plus Nazi Zombies is amazing!
FFXIII is decent. Interesting battle system.

I agree man. I LOVED Dragon age 1. I played it for hours. I loved how you can pause gameplay and send commands. I played it for hours and hours until i finally maxed out my characters and beat the game. I was expecting big things from Dragon age 2, but i lost interest after just a few minutes and quit.
and I own and enjoy playing demons souls. Its a great game, but only if you got your big boy pants on. you'll die alot and have to start over and lose like an hour of gameplay. Worst part is, there is no checkpoints before the bosses, so you finally get there and lose then your fucked.

Bioshock!!!!!!!!!!!! Best game ever, until my girl erased my file. Prototype is excellent. White Knight Chronicles LOTR: Conquest Playing Bulletstorm now, its fun for cheap. RDR is cool looking. R & C are always good fun. Folklore, as someone mentioned. All the guy RPGs. Bioshocks, Borderlands, Fallout Get Castlevania-Epic game, you can get a good 60 hrs out of it. Nier Hey Kickle, you will love FFXIII. 13-2 will be even better. It had a great story to it. RE 5 is cool, dont listen to the critics. Same w the POP games.
Ebay is excellent for games!
Hey, i suggest getting a PS3 charger. I didnt like the idea of tying the system up for 2 hrs recharging. You can get one ebay for $20.

I'll definitely look into it, thanks for the recommendation.
On another note, I've been playing around with different setups for the GT steering wheel. Built a PVC frame and screwed some boards to it for a dash. Seems to work alright but the stability isn't quite there yet because of the square frame. Anyone ever used one of these things and if so what the hell did you mount the steering wheel to?

inFamous 2 is coming out soon isn't it? I might wait 'till then and see if prices drop as a result.
What makes it worth the buy?

I'm not sure about the exact release date, but I know it's soon.
It's just a really unique game. You can choose either the good or bad path so you have to play it at least twice to experience everything you can in the game, so there's the replay value. Plus, as the game progress, your character unlocks different electrical abilities like grinding on train tracks and telephone wires so you can get across the environment faster, static thrusters, and different forms of attacks. You have a limited amount of electrical energy so you can only use certain attacks a few times until you have to find a source of power to recharge your electricity, so it takes a bit of strategy at certain parts. Also you can climb up buildings and almost anything you can see, so it gives it that "parkour" feeling like in assassin's creed (I don't know if you've played that or not, though), but not as refined as AC.
And that's just a few things off the top of my head that I like. You'd have to play it to really appreciate it.

No problem.
There's a lot to the game though, so if your curious you should take a look at This Review if you want to check it out some more or see some gameplay footage

i actually wouldn't waste my money on a controller recharger, if your a solo gamer just get 1 spare controller and recharge one while your gaming or watching a movie. You can also plug it into your computer to charge which is what ive recently started doing. And infamous is some good fun, its similar to prototype. Basically your the eqiviliant to a "electrical" superman. Some of the mini missions get old/repetitive but overall its a game worth playing. Its what the ps3 is all about really, good quality single player games. There's things like little big planet and rachet and clank and they look like sissy kids games and i guess they mostly are but yet they turn out to be fun for adults as well

truth, and is not even typically the type of game i go for, but is a lot of fuckin fun... game just has a great control scheme, that evolves and becomes better as your character grows more powerful... reasonably entertaining cyberpunkish story line as well... the last game i recall playing all the way through too
-------------------- Everything is better than it was the last time. I'm good. If we could look into each others hearts, and understand the unique challenges each of us faces, I think we would treat each other much more gently, with more love, patience, tolerance, and care. It takes a lot of courage to go out there and radiate your essence. I know you scared, you should ask us if we scared too. If you was there, and we just knew you cared too.

Just rented Infamous 2 and just started playing.
It's pretty cool, you can continue off of your profile in the first game and keep the good or bad Karma. Should be an epic game if it's anything like the first one.
