Playstation 3

[Hieronymus]

I bought a PS3 over the weekend, more to ease my hunger for hi-def movies (now that HD-DVD is dead) rather than its games, as the catalog seems rather sparse. I picked up Oblivion even though I already have it for the PC, because it as A] the only RPG available and B] cheap ("only" US$30). I was thinking of getting the upcoming Army of Two for my weekly co-op gaming session. Any other recommendations?

Ratchet & Clank games have been solid for years. If you like third person blowing stuff up, I hear that game is suhweet.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune is good, if you're into those adventure type games.

I guess Whateveresque isn't exactly awash with PS3 owners or enthusiasts. Big surprise.

Still chugging away at my Playstation 2...but I've heard only good things about Ratchet & Clank. People say it is like playing a Pixar movie...

Currently going through my flatmate's copy of Assassin's Creed, which is fairly enjoyable, especially if you're into vaguely swashbuckling swordfights and kicking Knights Templar off buildings.

There is a certain joy in throwing someone off a building and listening to the crowd below freak out.

While playing Assassin's Creed! In game! In game!

I got a PS3 for Christmas and I love it. THe ability to play blu-ray as well is sweet!

I have the Lego Star Wars which I love (the disk is currently MIA, which makes for a sad Jedi).
Resistance: Fall of Man is good, though a bit hyper-violent for me (I'm a sissy these days.)
Ratchet is another one which looks good but I have yet to buy it.

Rumor has it BIOSHOCK is coming to PS3 this spring which would kick much ass.

GTA4.

Anyways, I have GTA4 for the PS3, and the Les Paul controller for Guitar Hero for the PS3, but not the PS3 itself. Which leaves something to be desired.

Since I have a family, everyone was telling me to get a Wii. But my 5 year old checked it out and told me he prefers our old Xbox (he's a racing game fiend). The only Nintendo game I really got into was Super Mario Kart, but if the boy prefers his PGR2, Flatout, Test Drive, etc., who am I to judge?

So I think I'm going for a PS3. There's a lot of doom and gloom out there about Sony's prospects and it's last in the console wars. But the cheapest Blu-Ray is about $250, and the PS3 gets you an awesome system for only an extra $150.

When will they cut prices??? I gotta play my shit!

Gran Turismo - car racing game. There is a good on-line play.
Dead Space - single player sci-fi adventure

It's pretty neat when you get blu ray movies with the special support.

Finally got my PS3. Anyone frequent the online places? My username is KoinosKosmos.

Fallout 3. It came out back in October but it rocks, and it's an RPG.
