woohoo! got a ps3, 60gb hd, 5 games with it for £230 Smile My buddy is selling it cheap so he can put cash towards a new car. Bargain huh?

Just some questions :

Is PSN free?

what are the best exclusives to keep me waiting for Gow 3?

And do Ps2 games work on the ps3? cos I want to buy some classic ps2 titles to go with it if it does Smile

I think all 60GB PS3s have some backwards compatibility. It sucks a lot thou, that's why latest PS3s that are in production don't have backwards comp any more. If you want to play PS2 games properly and free get a cheapo modded PS2. Razz

Best Exclusives? not sure, it depends on what games you like.
here's a few exclusives that I enjoy(ed).

Valkyria Chronicles
inFamous
Demon's Souls
Disgaea 3
LittleBigPlanet
Killzone 2
Metal Gear Solid 4

There's also Eternal Sonata which, while not a ps3 exclusive, offers quite some extra stuff on the ps3 compared to the 360 version.

I suppose you could also check out Heavenly Sword which is probably the closest thing to god of war the ps3 has so far, and it must be really cheap by now.

yeah nice deal i guess it depends on the games though , i got my ps3 xmas time i brought it off a friend that wanted just 50quid its a 60gig and came with 1 controller and LBP i really dont play it for ames i always seem to prefer the 360 but its a good multimedia centre i use it to watch divx and stuff.


As for framerate, the 360 version runs smooth, while the PS3 is a jaggy mess that chugs along in slow motion.

I wouldn't recommend Heavenly Sword, a lot of it is more like Dynasty Warriors than God of War.

I have finally become a member of the PS3 family! I just bought a 80GB PS3 with the Motor Storm, Resistance Fall of Man and Extra DS3 Controller for $399.99. I am so impressed with this sleek looking system. I now own a Wii, X360 and PS3. No game can come out that I cannot play! LOL! Uncharted Drakes Fortune is AWESOME!! Loving it so far. I rented it for 7 days to try and save some money. Cannot wait for Uncharted 2!!!

Very Happy!

He's exaggerating, but if you get only one game for your PS3, make it this one.

Yep I enjoyed Infamous and Uncharted, I'm waiting for the pal release of Demon Souls though - I like having the boxes so having a korean box, when all the others are in english just won't work for me.

Only thing in Korean is the text on the back pretty much (and the manual of course). The title and what not is in English. When turned on it's edge in a book case, the visible title is in English.

But meh. Whatever.
