Who Else Plans On Getting A Ps3? And A Wii For That Matter
« on: September 23, 2006, 11:37:00 AM »

1st off to the haters. Why limit yourself and talk sh1t on something that hasn't been released yet.  rolleyes.gif


Anyways  I jave a premium 360 and will be getting a PS3. I will not get a launch console since I witnessed the 360s wonderfull issues at launch.

The lesser model PS3 will now also have HDMI and at least in Japan will be knocked down in price 20%. I will still most likely get the "premium" PS3.

I will most likely not get a Wii, I had a Powerglove. Not to mention most of Nintendos games are not really fun for me. I am anxious for the launch though to see how their controller system works out in the home. I have been wondering though if they will get alot of carpral tunnel and tennis elbow complaints/ attempted suits at them. I have seen a video and it looks like it would not take long for your wrist to start hurting.

i already have my wii preordered so i will be getting one at launch.

i will get a ps3 a few years down the line when it comes down in price and has enough exclusive games that i want to play to justify me buying one.

Anyone who would play for that long and then attempt to sue would be... well... retarded.  Should I sue eMachines because I used the keyboard and mouse that came with my computer for so long that I developed carpal tunnel?  No... that's MY fault, not there's.  Ever look in a manual?  It says "do not play for longer than X amount of time without taking a break X minutes long."

I think I'll get a Wii... but seeing as I believe that the 360 and PS3 will be very similar to each other and 360 will most likely have more games (much easier to program for) and I'm not a big RPG fan, then maybe a PS3 in the distant future.

For me it's a basic choice on cost. I'm not flush for money and decided that MS had the right idea in next-gen gaming. They also were able to deliver a year before anyone else could. The downloadable content is just getting better, the whole Xbox Live and Achievements has given me an incentive to WANT to play my games as much as possible and the forthcoming releases look fantastic - I'm looking forward to FIFA '07 and Mass Effect!

If money was no object then of course I'd get all three smile.gif

Having direct daily experience with Ps3... I'll be staying away unless something truly fantastic is released exclusively.

When did you play on one?  What did you think?


I work for neversoft on Project 8 as such I can't give any opinions regarding it due to NDA (Non disclosure agreement)

If that doesn't say something, nothing will. laugh.gif

I too am in the same boat; i won't bet getting a ps3 until something exclusive is a must have for me, and hopefully by then the premium will cost $100 less.

Are you able to tell us if the rumors about the PS3 version of project 8 not supporting online multiplayer are true?

And if you can't tell us that can you tell us if the PS2 version DOES support online multiplayer?  smile.gif

Sorry, I was just curious if what we've been hearing was part of an official press release or if it was just ramblings by web-journalists.  smile.gif
