Oh and your comment about Uncharted is a load of shit.

Sarni a word of warning, take nothing this guy says seriously, particularly on issues regarding the PS3.

I wouldn't take anyone's opinions on this forum seriously. Particularly on issues regarding the PS3.

WeasteDevil · 6th July 2008, 01:42

I'd take mine seriously.

I don't wear underwear, just stockings and suspenders.

Redlambs · 6th July 2008, 01:49

Good man.

I still refer to my Assassin's Creed comment. Have you ever played such a non-game? I mean I've played some awful shit in my life, but at least most of them had some gameplay!

I picked the system up today with Assasins Creed, Oblivion, Def Jam Icon, Uncharted, Tony Hawk, Euro 2008, Madden 08, some baseball and some college basketball (they were $15 each, the sports games and Madden). Ill be going online sometime soon, what are you guys playing online usually? (read: what should I buy next)

Sounds like youll be a star at these two

DanH · 6th July 2008, 02:31

metal gear solid online would be a good choice, also look in the bargain section for a few earlier releases like R:FOM, you'll be playing quite a bit of COD4 online i'd imagine as it's ace.

oh and i got uncharted today, fucking brilliant game, can't think of anything of it's type like that for ages and ages. are the new tomb raiders anywhere near this good?

Well, they were both cheap and offer multiplayer so I bought both of them. Actually baseball games are usually ace, lots of excitement.

Sarni · 6th July 2008, 06:48

Damn, the UEFA Euro 2008 is amazing. It's probably the same as FIFA except with less teams in it, but they didn't have FIFA at store so I bought it instead. The only flaw is that I cannot find any online leagues, so I'm stuck with ranked games or multiplayer.

Tony Hawk Project 8 is pretty good too, although I've only played a few minutes. The first impression with Def Jam Icon is that it's kind of boring, but I will probably like it at another try. Madden 08 is fine, I've played a game with my brother and it's a typical Madden except for punting, which is a complete nonsense in this edition. The college basketball is great for multiplayer. I've had only one race on Gran Turismo 5 so far, bought a Mini Cooper, the graphics are absolutely fantastic.

I haven't played the rest so far. I will try baseball tomorrow, possibly one of Uncharted, Assasins Creed and Oblivion as well but I'm definitely not playing them all at once, I will begin another one only after finishing a considerable part of the previous, don't want to spoil the fun.

The good part of it all is that I got a PS3 system with 10 games for less than I'd pay for a hardware alone in Poland. Great pricing, I'll probably buy MGS4, Resistance and something else in the next few days.

You forgot to mention that you always fail at this task.

KeyserSoze · 6th July 2008, 15:41

Does anyone know if a timesplitters is going to be made for ps3. That online multiplayer would be brilliant.

esmufc07 · 6th July 2008, 15:42

Still not sure what consoles they are going to be released on but there is a TimeSplitters 4 in the works. Will most probably come to all 3.

ZIDANE · 6th July 2008, 15:44

What's the best racing game on the PS3 right now?

Besides the GT5 Prologue. I'd rather wait for the full than buy that.

esmufc07 · 6th July 2008, 15:46

The only other racing game I have played bsesides GT5 for the PS3 is Motorstorm, which is a lot of fun, especially when you use the sixaxis.

DanH · 6th July 2008, 18:15

i couldn't stand motorstorm myself, for something slightly alternative you could try burnout paradise. i'm really enjoying it on my 360 and the ps3 version is meant to be very slgihtly better.

Red_Aaron · 7th July 2008, 08:30

the orange box is an absolute must, the half life trilogy is a genuine shout for best game ever imo and add to that the simply brilliant Portal and you can't go wrong

if you liked Tony Hawk you should give Skate a go. It will take some getting used to if you're a seasoned tony hawk player but its far far deeper and better imo

Oblivion is great but too much for some, you could litterally play it for the rest of your life. probably

MGS4 -typical MGS, which is a good thing right?

GTA4 - typical GTA, which is a good thing right?

oh, and every man on this earth should own everybodys golf: world tour

Jacob · 7th July 2008, 10:10

I got

Assasin Creed
PES 2008
FIFA 2008
Need for Speed (latest)
COD 4

with the PS3 I bought yesterday.

Jacob · 7th July 2008, 10:10

What about GTA?

manxmanc · 7th July 2008, 10:14

Sarni if you like THPS try playing skate, its much better...

GRID (I've got it on 360, but I'm assuming all is the same across platforms).

WeasteDevil · 7th July 2008, 10:51

For racers: F1, DiRT, GRID (I didn't like the demo, handling of the cars for me was way off what I'm used to), Motorstorm, Burnout (not a classic racer), Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli (not tried it yet myself but I like the lok of it), Ridge Racer 7, and of course the imminent release of WipeOut HD.

manxmanc · 7th July 2008, 11:00

F1 is good played it on me mates PS3 but takes a lot of getting use to!

DIRT was class, great fun and loads of different types of rally racing.

GRID is more of the same but loads of types of road racing instead. I agree with Weaste to a point that it is hard to get use to, but once you do its great its more realistic I'd say.

Had ago on Motorstorm wasn't my cup of tea really, not played the rest though.

Ixion · 7th July 2008, 11:00

Warhawk
Motorstorm
Metal Gear Solid 4
Pro Evo 2008
Tekken DR
Ratchet & Clank: Tools of Destruction

Those are the games I've played the most since getting my PS3. Warhawk is the game I keep going back to even though its one of the first I got, I really enjoy it. Oh and despite what people may say get Super Rub'a'Dub because I did some work on that :P

WeasteDevil · 7th July 2008, 11:26

Then you get games like this, 1080p and 60fps that are only ever released in Japan. Why do they do this? They could at least stick in on the PSN and earn some cash...

Full 1080p shot: http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/...70622/wm10.jpg

WeasteDevil · 7th July 2008, 11:29

Here's another one, Japan only at this point....

Jacob · 7th July 2008, 13:31

MGS4
GTA4
Tekken

how much will them cost me?

Good to see that you took my advice and went for euro 2008 over fifa. It was due to my comment about its gameplay right?

EDIT: just read your other post

KeyserSoze · 7th July 2008, 18:53

Fellas.

This Drakes fortune... worth picking up or renting?

Length? Playback value? Online options?
