What Do You Use Your PS3 For?

The PS3 has many features that has been put into it. From watching blu rays, playing HD games, listening to music etc. What do you use your PS3 for?

dkblackhawk506032d ago

I use mine for everything that it can possibly do.

Gandalf6032d ago

It only does everything, so might as well use everything.

chester6032d ago

movies and blu-ray, and since it's a 60 gb model, old ps2 games and new ps3 exclusives.

MONOLITHICIDE6032d ago

what Chester the molester said

Bubbles_Kitty_Cat6032d ago

I only use mine to play (some) PS3 exclusives.

I play all of my multiplats on my Xbox 360, and I have a standalone Blu-ray player for watching movies.

Real Gambler6032d ago

You definitively have too much money! Heck, I don't think they have yet made a standalone Bluray player better than the PS3!

Bubbles_Kitty_Cat6032d ago

I bought a standalone player to save wear and tear on my PS3.

There are a number of standalone players that are better than the PS3, by the way.

Games, mostly.

I also like to copy my weekly TV shows over wireless to it to watch them on TV (frees up the connection as I don't have to worry about streaming).

Movies.

A lot, really. It's my "entertainment center".

dkblackhawk506032d ago

Very good reason, most people use it for "entertainment".

dkblackhawk506032d ago

Xbot walks in "The Xbox 360 can do so much more!
Random person "You mean like getting banned?"
Xbot "..."

lol. Fits this perfectly.

GiantEnemyCrab6032d ago

So you are staff at E4G? Good to know who the biased "journalists" are out there and will make sure I put that in context whenever I see an E4G article/blog/comment

Like banning pirates and people who steal games is a bad thing. You wanna talk about an idiot, look in the mirror fool.

dkblackhawk506032d ago

It's called sarcasm...stop taking things so seriously over the internet.

GiantEnemyCrab6032d ago

Hey, you know the internetz are serious business..

Perhaps a /sarc tag would of fit for your comment.

Anyway, fair enough if you are just having a laugh..

I was being sarcastic when I called you an idiot and a fool.

dkblackhawk506032d ago

I thought I did but today was a busy day, had to do a ton of crap. Thanks for understanding.

MONOLITHICIDE6032d ago

to bad he shouldnt have to put a /sarc for you to not get your panties all in a bunch, you need to go touch yourself or something jeeeezzzzz

* I game
* I listen to music
* I shop
* I stream Netflix
* I watch Blurays I receive from Netflix
* I stream movies off my TB SAN via TVersity
* I video chat with my brother in NY
* I'll soon spam all my Farmville, Mafia Wars, Aquarium playing FB friends with my PS3 Trophies (Haven't put in GoW:C b/c of this)
* I play PS2 games (buying at launch had its advantages)
* I message friends

Can't wait for what the future holds!

dkblackhawk506032d ago

Yep, will be a great future for Sony.

D4RkNIKON6032d ago

I am with you there, I do the same. I try to get everything out of my PS3. The media server is awesome and I have been listening to Pandora radio through the web browser while text chatting friends.

kaveti66166032d ago

Well at first I used it for games and streaming tv shows, and then I found out I could use it to catch pedophiles and calculate the folding of molecular materials.

dkblackhawk506032d ago

Amazing what it could do. Just imagine, it can do your homework lol.

kaveti66166032d ago

Oh no, not that. Usually it prevents me from doing my homework. Out of respect for it, I don't think I will ever make it do something so vile as homework. Playstation must only be used for fun and for the good of mankind. Homework is ewww!

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle27d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde34d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy34d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12534d ago (Edited 34d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga35d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199235d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga35d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman34d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger35d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box35d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion34d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7235d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7535d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit35d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14935d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7735d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
