SO MUCH FREAK'N UNCHARTED 2 LOVE FOR PS+!!

morganfell5225d ago

For some reason they did not mention it but the Splinter Cell Trilogy is also up on the store. I picked up the retail version this morning. It looks fantastic as it was taken from the PC build. The 3D is nicely implemented.

Diver5225d ago

Gotta agree. The 3D looks sweet in Splinter Cell. Oh looky looky Morg, a phantom disagree by some kiddie that dont own the game.

@Diver (and morgan)
Although it wasn't me, I'm pretty sure they disagreed because they DO list the splinter cell trilogy...

edit: pardon me for pressing the wrong "reply"

LOL, there are a lot of angry people waiting for the BF3 beta lol. I didn't buy MOH but PS3 owners are basically getting 36 hours of advance play. Can't wait till the 29th, hopefully the beta runs smoothly.

consolez_FTW5225d ago

The only game I want is He-Man after so long I get to enjoy a real He-Man game. Just hope they drop She-Ra and Hordak into the game.

PS3 got a bad rap because of the price. I bought it day one (I was very lucky). A Blu-ray player was more expensive than the PS3 at the time around 800$+

badz14914d ago

And that was for a standalone player with no internet connectivity. A network enable BD players like the PS3 was, were around $1000 at the time

Mr Logic14d ago

That's true, but it gets worse. I remember seeing independent analysis from CNET or something like that. They concluded that PS3 was not only the cheapest, but also had the best video quality of any BD player.

DivineHand12514d ago

Good to see there is an improvement despite the challenges plaguing this generation.

At the end of year 5, the ps3 received a pricecut making the 160GB model $250 and the 320G GB model $300.

I miss those days when there was not so much demand for microchips and the prices of things generally came down.

Now everything seems to be a smart device with very few companies to supply the needed chips.

__y2jb13d ago

Why compare to the PS3? The machine was a total abortion.

Comparing to 4 would be best being it’s the previous generation and was hugely successful.

NotoriousWhiz13d ago

There is a ps5 to ps4 comparison. The PS4 currently has a narrow lead.

Lulz_Boat13d ago

you are right, that's why it outsold 360

anast12d ago

Because it's being compared to everything...This is how this game writing goes...

gold_drake13d ago (Edited 13d ago )

we should also not forget what shitstorm the ps3 got cause of the price bk then

it was still a phenomenal console

Ninver13d ago

Western media did everything in their power to destroy the ps3. They shiited on its price and made fun of the CELL (I'm surprised there wasn't more dbz memes) calling it alien hardware. Still it gave us games like Uncharted 2 and TLOU.
