Also, you have one system, stick with it. Don't just go out and get another because you feel like it.
Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
Funny thing there since the only version of TF2 that has gotten updates is the pc edition. I've seen you complain about this before, and sorry to tell you but Valve has no plans on relesing an update for the PS3 because it was not ported by them. The xbox on the other hand is expecting it's first TF2 update sometime soon.Twilight Wolf wrote:Trust me, that and the lack of updates for "The Orange Box" are the only parts I don't like about owning a PS3.

My thoughts on buying the PS3...
don't.

Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
Oh, I know I'm not gonna get anything, and yeah, I'm bitter about it. However, Valve has been saying the Xbox 360 version will be updated "soon" since 2007... I'll believe it when I see it. However, it's occured to me that at least the PS3 version hasn't had the in-game console broken into, so we don't get crazy things like low gravity, flying surfboards of death, a group of G-Man blocking the resupply, Striders dancing in the middle of 2Fort, etc. I don't feel as bad about the PS3 version being neglected now!

I've played my xbox 360 around once in the past month. I stopped buying live because I signed in maybe a few times a month. I don't really play my 360 anymore.XCVG wrote: Also, you have one system, stick with it. Don't just go out and get another because you feel like it.

Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
Well, if you're really getting no enjoyment out of your 360 any more, even with all the games you've got, then there's not much of a point in keeping it. Like I said, however, be sure to do your reasearch on the PS3 thoroughly to make sure that selling your entire 360 collection would be worth it. Do what I did when I was considering buying a PS3 and read lots of reviews. You'll get a good idea of how well-suited the PS3's features and game library are to your tastes. You can proceed from there, I guess. I mean, you wouldn't want to sell your entire 360 collection only to be dissapointed again by the PS3, would you?
If you decide to do this, do you think you'll be buying your PS3 new or used?

He has a very good point there. Maybe you should actually play the 360.Black Six wrote:So what makes you think you'll play your PS3 any more than you do your 360?Oniak wrote:I've played my xbox 360 around once in the past month.

Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
I've played most of the exclusives for 360 and Im tired of them. Infact I play my ps2 most of the time now\Black Six wrote:So what makes you think you'll play your PS3 any more than you do your 360?Oniak wrote:I've played my xbox 360 around once in the past month.

PS3 has quite a few great titles... Metal Gear 4, Killzone 2, Uncharted, Resistance, Lair, Everybodys Golf, GT5 Prologue, Little Big Planet.. if you want one buy one why not? The hardware doesn't exactly kill the 360 though.
BTW All the people posting on this thread going "OH GAWD the PEES TRIPUL SUX" need to go turn burn their typing fingers off with a soldering iron. Later, one more point why should someone be limited to one gaming platform, if you can afford it why not own all three?

I think this is a better illustration.Kurt_ wrote:2) The PS3 can play blue ray discs, dvds, and cds. However, gamewise, it doesn't any games you're missing out on.
Anyone who says the PS3 doesn't have any good games has obviously never played one and thus aren't in a position to say so.

Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
Once again, you're misreading.
Basically, there's only five types of games or so. Shoot stuff, explore stuff, be bored to death pretty much doing nothing, be bored to death pretty much watching in-game cinematics, and strategy.
I'm not saying the PS3 doesn't have good games, you're just not getting any crazy new stuff justifying dropping $500.

Re: To ps3 or not to ps3?
I'd say it's about the same way on the 360, then. Seriously, how many 360 games aren't shooters?
And it's $400, by the way, unless you're buying the 160GB bundle.
