PS3...anyone manage to get one yet?...opinions?

[day_for_night]

so has anyone been lucky enough to get one of these bad boys? has it lived up to the hype? do you regret buying it, or are you happy with your pruchase (especially considering the cost)?

Metal Gear and FF will come out on Xbox360 probably 6 months after ps3. It's only exclusive for a limited time.

Ps3 is not more powerful than a 360, they both can put out HD outputs and Sony have lost alot of exclusive developers. That coupled with the fact its over priced would make it hard for me to even consider a ps3. Whether it will be a better console or not? Probably not, but this industry is all about "wait and see".

Oh, and ps3 no longer have their "rumble" feature due to Nintendo suing their asses off. I don't understand they didn't just settle it like Microsoft did.

I was lucky enough to get one recently and like it. I use it more for watching Blu-Ray movies at this point. The better games are on Xbox 360 which I own too.

The PS3 is a better looking machine with some better things like larger hard drive, HDMI, Blu-Ray vs an HD-DVD add on, & less noisier when operating. But, again Xbox360 has better games and I find myself using it more.

I've only played one game on the PS3(Fall of Man which rocks) and a few demos. I probably could've waited or regret my purchase if I didn't use it for Blu-Ray movies.

PS3 will have its' game arrive in 2007-08 and then it will be a fierce competitor once again. Think, SOCOM4, Killzone2, MGS4, DMC4 and GT5. Unless of course MS does wind up buying out CAPCOM then it will be a whole different ball of wax. We'll see. I bought 3 of them and sold them.

by the time ps3 s time arrives (and thats a big if) no one will care. their sales are horrible, they are losing their exclusives and the machine itself has massive graphical bugs to say the least.

can you say sony dreamcast? i honestly dont know any real gamers that want to buy the ps3

raises hand.

Wait till Fall 07'. Wait for Devil May Cry 4, Killzone 2 and MGS4. I want one really bad, I just can't justify the price now. And in fact, there are so many games on the 360, they will keep well busy into a good portion of 2008. Halo3, Bioshock, Blue Odyssey, GRAW2, FORZA2, A new Call of Duty which takes on a modern feel, Army of Two and the list goes on and on. Yea, I could see the PS3 falling to way-side. Now if MS can pony up enough bills to buy CAPCOM, that will indeed put another huge nail(s) in the coffin.

The new Metal Gear will be the PS3's killer app.

It's still about a year away and do to that fact will be minus a lot of the bugs and complications that launch titles have. Plus, the developers will have that much more time to get used to the designing process of the system itself...which I hear is one of the major drawbacks to it right now.

metal gear 4 guns of the patriots will be an exclusive PS3 tittle... hideo kojima the creator of the game said the game might run on an xbox360 he didn't say it was going to be ported for the microsoft system i doubt it will.

It's really quite sad to see so many PS3s available at all of the stores.

Received mine on launch day here. Got to say its a pretty sexy piece of hardware. The thing that surprised me was how quiet the unit is when initially switched on and whilst watching Blu-Ray discs. This is one thing that put me off using the PS2 as a DVD player due to it's pretty annoying fan noise. I'd assume the fan kicks in more when playing games but you're less likely to notice that. Pictures during games are, as you'd expect, pretty fucking amazing. My TV can do 720p or 1080i which look the business.

Not totally sold on Blu-Ray tho. I had it hooked up to my TV via HDMI and the picture looked grainy with visible noise. TBH, a standard DVD on my old CRT widescreen looked better. Maybe its my TV settings or (most likely) the Blu-Ray player isn't as good as a standalone player. I remember getting a new DVD player to replace my PS2 as I couldn't stand the fan noise and the picture was so much sharper and more defined. Can't complain for ?420 tho - it's a route in to buying the discs and once the standalones become cheaper you can get one of those and have a library already built up.

Just a shame my TV can't do 1080p... that would kick some arse.
