So it happened...

after having a nintendo Wii first.... then nearly a year and a half later a Xbox360...... and then saturday this weekend..... i splurged, did the plunge and got something i mostly swore to everyone i wouldn't personally own most likely...


I am the relatively happy owner for a PlayStation 3

The newest generation of it.. the slim version 160gb model.

Worth noting is i picked up at futureshop due to the multiple bundle deal... everything for 299 for a about a 450 value.

console, controller, free game, and a extra controller+game pack which i picked God of war Collection for ps3

It came with bioshock 2... which i'm not interested in at all...

however the god of war 1 and 2 enhance/updated eddition was of great interest..

oh and of course grand trismo 5

Enjoying the god of war as my own game instead of playing someone elses excisting game .... quite enjoying it... lost track of time last night and found myself playing and still awake at 4am....

I am happy for you Judas, I hope you will share your opinion and experience with GT 5.
Many players complain about lack of damage when you hit the car.

Re: So it happened...

oh and i'm a little miffed and can't comprehend why when i've purchased a custom transmission.. why in the hell can't i get modify each ratios setting individualy? It's like a special cheat code has to be put in so you arne't stuck with "bigginners" options to only adjust top speed up or down..... atm that's my main gripe.. and no i haven't looked it up on the internet yet.

Re: So it happened...

I wanna check out GT5 how do you like it? The only thing I really miss from the xbox i had (before trading it for a ps3 that could play the ps2 games mostly) was forza. I have heard good things about GT but havent gotten around to really looking at it.

Get Uncharted 1 and 2 then you're talkin'. Uncharted series blows away all the other overhyped franchises.

Re: So it happened...

Judas congrates for the PS3!
I'm an XBOX360 fan myself, and it's quite enough for me right now.
Actually, I'm with FuNsTeR - a big PC fan.
If you'll check my specs you'll see my PC is a beats, for I'm a graphics fanatic and nothing can beat PC graphics...

Well, no dougt though that consoles are much more fun with friends.
Id'e reccomend some co-op games....
