    Come on guys someone convince me also that this is a good buy

    One of my kids has a birthday coming up and i was relying on the PS3 to bail me out

    as the spoilt little brats already have everyother console on the market, all the handheld ones and a laptop each

    i risisted the urge to get them one for christmas as i didnt fancy seeing £50 disks getting trodden on by my new years visiting nepews and nices... but now i'm really struggling.

    are you guys saying don't buy the PS3

    If your at all technical Saddo get a 360. Just learn to mod it, my brother has done loads it's easy apparently and you never have to pay for any games.

    GET THE PS3!!!

    I got one a while back and you won't be dissapointed, great look, great graphics and have it flat or on it's side and a whole collection of cool games, in HD and comes witha wireless controller and 40gb or 60gb built in memory.

    The best bi.: PLAY ONLINE FOR FREE!!! XBox uses have to pay £40 a year to play online when it is absoloutely free for PS3 uses, also the controllers are easy and great to hold unlike the big fat ones the X-BOX have with about 40 buttons on.

    GET THE PS3!!!

    The PS3 will still play PS1 & PS2 games, will it not?

    I remember years ago when I never thought I'd need or want an NES again when they came out with SNES and N64, but now I'd pay as much for a working NES as I would a PS3 or a Wii (not really ).

    I have a working NES and a working SNES. I never owned a N64 but did have a GC that the ex-wife took when she left.

    I tried to sell the SNES at GameStop and they laughed at me.

    I also had a TurboGrafx 16 which a sold to a kid in highschool after having it for only a few months.

    I did the same thing, but before the guy laughed at me he called his other friends just so more of them could

    so dizaster.. i beat God of War 1 the other day, pretty killer ending.. I was sort of hoping for a little more story, like who that dude was that was digging Kratos's grave.. maybe i just missed that part of the story..

    anyway, definitely one of the best console games i've ever played, the puzzles were GREAT.. The whole Greek mythology size of it was fantastic, but with all that said, i'm SO GLAD that it's over.. some of those puzzles took me forever, but that's what makes the game so great.. anyway, i'll be borrowing from my cousin, god of war 2 soon.. are they about the same length and difficulty as far as puzzles go?

    I not only have a working NES but a working Power Pad, and working Duck Hunt Gun.


    I also have plenty of games for it: Super Mario Bros. 1-3, Breakthru, Track and Field, Duck Hunt, Double Dribble, MegaMan, etc

    I never got the game I really wanted for it though.....Zelda.

    The 60GB version does but the 40GB version does not.

    the 360 is fairly easy to flash, but most people who did it got banned from
    xbox live, If u don't use the online though I'd definitly get it done!
