PS3 Discussion

Sony's logic on just that makes my head hurt. That EE chip sounds much better as it means they don't need to update the emulators. Why create more work for your self?

Do they want the ps3 to fail?

Sony removed the EE chip to lower production costs. I believe the EE chip costs about 30 bucks. So, basically, they're lowering the production cost from around $820 dollars per console to about $790 per console. As for updating the BC list, they're doing it far more slowly because they believe that people are more interested in playing downloadable PS3 titles (Like Warhawk) then getting a near-full BC list.

So they did it to costs , That is ok but flawed logic as if it made them cost more they shouldn't of added them in the first place. Plus prices are still ridicules without chip

Idiots , BC helps people buy new consoles , My brother for e.g bought a Wii out of the three consoles he got a Wii as he could get rid of his cube and get a new console that played his games.

I know others who waited for a 360 till their bc list was fuller to use their games.

Even if they keep messing up , I'm still hoping they make it a worth while console soon.

Well, I looked through the entire game list (or at least what's on wiki) and found some games I'll be keeping an eye on.

  • The Angency
  • Alliance: The Silent War
  • Assassin's Creed
  • FFXIII
  • FFvsXIII
  • Metal Gear Solid 4
  • Heavenly Sword
  • Zone of the Enders 3


The bold ones are of course ones I already mentioned I'd grab. The others don't mean I'll 100% get them (mainly the first two), but I'll see what happens as news comes along.

With Assasin's Creed and Heavenly Sword coming out this year, I might get a PS3 sometime around September maybe. At least there'll be two games out this year with more coming out next year. And Silent War is possibly coming out by the holiday season.


Also, what's Monster Hunter?

If it's like Monster hunter on ps2

Designed by the same team that assembled Resident Evil Outbreak, Monster Hunter is an online action/RPG that boasts base creation, item collection, and a myriad of different creatures. Originally unveiled as a surprise title at E3 2003, the graphic-intensive slasher takes four-player gaming to a world filled with dinosaur-like creatures and bloody weapons-based battles. The game features item creation, weapon customization, and character building. Players can strip their kills of their flesh for food, claws for decoration, and bones for weapons and armor -- not to mention upgrades for existing equipment

Don't you have a 360, Ice? Because Assassin's is on that, too.
 
My brother has the 360. I know it's on there, too. But if I plan on getting the PS3, I want to have as many games as I can for it not be a "waste" as I've mentioned before.

I hear ya. That's what I'm trying to justify, too. I think Lair is going to be the deciding factor on whether or not I'll buy it in September (When I'll have a little extra cash) or at Christmas.
 
Ice said:
What is Lair supposed to be about? I've seen some screenshots and it looks good.

You play a dragon riding knight embroiled in a war between two nations at war over natural resources and religious reasons. The story is kind of a commentary on current world affairs.
 
I finally have my PS3.


And I picked up Heavenly Sword. I'm so excited.






So now I have a 360, PS3, and Gamecube. I need to update to a wii.
 
I received a huge gift certificate for Circuit City and might actually pick up a PS3. Haven't decided yet.
 
PS3 issue!

i'm visiting family in Kelowna and i brought my PS3 with me, because my family is boring

my PS3 has been using it's HDMI connection for the longest time, but nobody has an HDMI connection here, so i can't use it because the PS3 keeps trying to load an HDMI cable but all i got is the traditional Red/Yellow/White, this has occured to me once before and i fixed the problem by going back to the HDMI and going to the options and setting it back to normal, but since i can't do that here i need to find out if there is a way to switch it back without using an HDMI connection

Hold the power button for 5 seconds on startup to default your video output to whatever type of cable you currently have connected.
