, and i don't regret the purchase one bit.

i got to play some awesome games throughout 2007, and it's been non-stop awesome gaming since.

honestly, the dry spell for the PS3 was only those first 6 months of 2007, because the later half had some great games, and 2008 and 2009 have been great also. i even got to enjoy some good Blu Ray movies also.

only the haters are perplexed about why early adopters of the PS3 were satisfied with their purchase.

thanks!

it's just that i've been a Playstation fan since the original, and for the past two generations running, the Playstation consoles (and handheld), have been delivering some pretty amazing gaming experiences, and i didn't see how the PS3 would suddenly drop the ball.

and yet, for 3 years, Playstation fans have been subjected to probably one of the worst cases of ostracism i've ever encountered in all my 30 years. we were called "sheep," "drones,&...

anyone that thought Sony would never start to play hardball hasn't been playing video games in the past 15 years.

Sony doesn't just throw in all their cards in a Hail Mary play.

they release their consoles at a premium price because they are premium consoles.

they get the consumers willing to pay that premium price, and let the fence-sitters enjoy continued software support for the previous console.

then, after they get manufacturing costs d...

and yet he felt compelled to write an article about them?

*sigh* and people wonder why gaming "journalism" gets no respect in wider circles.

anyway, i played and own BOTH Prototype and inFAMOUS, and inFAMOUS is, has been, and always will be, the better game of the two.

it's a shame when Spider-Man: Web of Shadows is WAAAY better than Prototype, and WOS is MEDIOCRE!

i agree that Prototype wouldn't have gotten nearly as much hype if ...

i mean, making baseless negative assumptions about a Playstation product before it even hits the market...man, that takes me back...

the level of fear from the haters surrounding the PS3 Slim's release and the overall price drop for the PS3 to $299 is incredible.

Hey, Haters: YOU WANTED a price drop for the PS3, remember? you mentioned the high price of the console in every "article" you wrote about it, in eve...

fortunately, the PS3 isn't suffering from any shortage of games, exclusive or otherwise. which makes me a very happy gamer<--emphasis on the GAMER.

why embarrass Splinter Cell: Conviction like that?

wasn't it supposed to be released in 2007? when the FIRST Uncharted was out and wowing the PS3 masses?

Splinter Cell: Conviction will, i have no doubt, be a cool game. not my cup of tea, but the series has always had high quality (i'm not going to mention the travesty that was Splinter Cell: Double Agent on the PS3). the visuals are impressive, but Uncharted, and more specifically, Uncharted 2, is simply one of the b...

the arrival of the PS3 Slim over in the land of the Rising Sun is a game changer, however. at least that's what i think.

already folks in the US are snapping up the new $300 PS3s out now, and the slim is sure to please Japanese gamers that have complained that the current gen consoles (not including Wii), are just too damn big. hell, my own PS3 and 360 are dangerously close to falling off of their perches due to their massive bulk.

a slim PS3 would certainly be welco...

due to my work schedule (unfortunately, by the time i get home from work, i have a little less than an hour to play MAG, due to their limited schedule), but from what i played yesterday, it's pretty much SOCOM in the first person.

it has that same need to be tactical and a team, and you die EXTREMELY fast. it's very realistic and kind of scary.

i was rounding a corner, trying to be all sneaky and stealthy, when before i knew what hit me, BAM, i was down on the ground...

can somebody loan me a gigantic palm?

this is fricking 2009, a few months shy of 2010. technology PROGRESSES.

Playstation consoles haven't had the need for more than one disc since the PS1 era.

NOTE: The PS1 era ended officially in 2000, when the PS2 launched. that's almost 10 years ago.

i understand putting Special Features on a second disc (God of War 2 had a second DVD for Special Features, because the main game took up an entire 9gig dual layer DVD), but when you are actually SPLITTING g...

i'm a diehard PS3 fan, but Shadow Complex is AWESOME.

i bought it yesterday and have been having a blast. i love those types of non-linear Super Metroid, Castlevania: SOTN style games, and Shadow Complex is a welcome new edition to the "genre." i love it.

i DO think that the PS3 is the better system, with the better exclusives, but a good game is a good game.

if Shadow Complex were to come to the PS3, i'd recommend any sole PS3 owner to pick it...

God of War 3 looked like a painting?

the school dance?

it's never too late for a business to make a profit, and considering that Sony is indeed making money on all the software sold, even if not the profit, i don't see it being "too late" for ANYTHING concerning the PS3 brand.

a LOT of people have been eagerly awaiting this price drop.

it's here now. people that wanted one at $300 will get one. you can't ask for more than that.

also considering the fact that some of t...

be the meme that replaces "Massive Damage" and "Riiiiiidge Racer."

i think the Forza 3 guys have earned it.

just saying.

i'm not a huge Gran Turismo fan, but holy cow does this sound like an awesome package. i may have to pick it up.

how many of you guys think a December 2009 release date will be revealed at TGS next month?

a price cut AND GT5? i think Japan alone may implode at the prospect.

that allows us to fly?

i'm really looking forward to that one.

anyway, i think big things are heading to the PS3 starting tomorrow.

every year i love my PS3 more and more, and the games just keep getting better and better.

hell, just today at work, i sold one of the hardcore MS boys on a PS3 just by letting him play inFAMOUS and Killzone 2 at break today.

he said as soon as the slim drops, he's buying a PS3 then and there. kah-r...

i got my HDMI cable from newegg.com for $8.99.

after dropping a few hundred bucks on a game console, that $9 wasn't exactly breaking the bank.

i just don't think it's a big deal.
