Is the PS3 worth the cost right now or should i wait till the new GTA comes out to get it? Are there many good games now out for it? Like the new EA sports 08 series?

If you like cheaper prices and the same preformance with better online services it would be the 360, but if you're a diehard PlayStation fan you would go with the PS3. The only thing you would be missing out of would be the Metal Gear Solid series that is currently still PS3 exclusive, as for all the sports games and Grand Theft Auto series, it's all on the 360.

I mean for around 250 you can get the core system, to me that's a pretty damn good deal.

i just prefer PS3 and then you get the blueray player with it thats what i was thinking, are the metal gear solid series good? they look alright. What's wrong with madden 08? i haven't played a madden since like 05 version. But yeah just the 360 doesn't float my boat, they are good machines but not quite up to PS3 from what i have limitedly played so far.

The new 40GB version can't play PS2 games but can play old PS1 games. It has 2 less USB readers and I think it doesn't have some of the memory card readers.

OK, Ill repeat that:

PS3 has some big exclusives for 2008:

Gran Turismo 5
Killzone 2
Tekken 6
Metal Gear Solid 4
Final Fantasy XIII
Final Fantasy XIII Versus
--------------------------------

Those 6 games alone will erase 360 from the face of the earth in Japan.and will make it a pretty even fight in europe.....like ive said before, X360 will keep a comfortable lead in America, although it will be diminished considerably...


2008 will also have sequels for 2 of PS3's launch big sellers:

Motorstorm 2
Resistance:Fall of Man 2

It will also have less known but promising exclusives like:

Little Big Planet, this game was the hit of the 2007 e3.
HOME-not reall y a game but a very promising feature.
White Knight Story-Expect to be the next big thing, kind of like Final Fantasy
8 Days to Vegas-Direct competition to Grand Theft Auto...
HAZE-Expected to be a very good shooter...
Star Ocean 4-from the makers of Final Fantasy another RPG
Infamous


and of course the titles that will come out in all platforms-like Devil May Cry 4, residnet evil 5, Grand Theft Auto 4, Guitar Hero 4, etc....


and of course theres still the chance tha GOD OF WAR 3 may come out, though its still planned for 2009, the probable year that the best 2007 titles like Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted and Heavenly Sword get their sequel....

both are good systems really....the ps3 rushed in without being ready because they took longer than expected developing the console....

and 360 so far has done very good with marvelous games like bioshock, gears of war, halo3, etc....unlucky for them that the second biggest market in the world is totally anti-america....

yeah thats what ive heard, but the devleopers of the 5 best games out there for ps3(uncharted, ratchet and clank, call of duty 4, resistance fall of man and unreal tournament 3) have said ps3 isn't that hard...actually the call of duty 4 developers said they liked it more than in 360...

remember that they said the same of ps2...big part of that is because theyre more familiar with 360 so they just look to port the games, instead of developing separately...

2008 for ps3 begins with devil may cry, a huge hit in japan...and 360 is non existant up there so it will boost the ps3 3fold....

There always has to be a fanboy, always. No matter how much every word they say is a personal opinion, they will always feel they're spewing straight facts.

With 360 being a higher seller in the states, why would people buy a PS3 just to purchase Devil May Cry. It's going to be a high seller for whichever system the person owns. Just because PS3 has exclusives comming out in 2008 and 2009 in no way means 360 has just decided to never realease another exclusive. I dont understand how you guys throw together your opinions, but they honestly go nowhere.

honestly the free online makes it worth it for me. If i get a 360 It'll be to bootleg games on, which means no online play.

Some of their biggest exclusives makes their way to PC though, and Im in the process or upgrading mine, so I'll put off buying a 360 for a bit.

assasins creed was actually **** fun for the first half hour then its just repitition. Do't bother with it. I bought both a PS3 and a 360 and both are amazing. Call of Duty 4 is one of the best games I've played and Burnout: Paradise city should be great. Ratchet and Clank was real fun. Resistance is still great if u ain't played it. Orange Box just came out and I love it but 360 is also just as good if your willing to pay £30 a year to ply online. Halo 3, Bioshock and Mass effect are all exclusive to 360 and Ninja Gaiden 2 will be. Devil May cry 4 for both systems. God Of War 3 is yet to be annonced and GTA is out for both systems around March i think, But the big one that I'm waiting for is Metal Gear Solid 4. Thats the reason I got a PS3. O yea and Killzone 2 should be pretty good if they get it right this time round, Haze looks sweet as well.

The hate! I can feel the hate.

XBOX 360 had it year. 2008 will be all PS3.. What other games are coming out for the 360? Tell me!!! Oh yea.. No more exclusives.
You dont know what the results will be with PS3 in 08' so not jump the gun and assume. Its all a guess. What the 360 did in 07' is FACT.

FF13, Heavy Rain and Metal Gear 4 will be nerd heaven but i agree that the 360 has its classics like Bioshock, Gears and Mass Effect in the bank.

Hopefully Alan Wake and Fable 2 will prove themselves to be brilliant games aswell.

Great games for both systems will come out in 2008 though Sony has 360 beat with MGS alone. Sony and Microsoft have different strategies, Micro likes to have great game when a new system is made Sony likes to wait for there big ones while releasing some good ones in the beginning, both seem to work. Whats annoys the hell out of me is how Micro fans seem to have this dream in there heads that Sony is going to die off like Sega, wrong, Sony has been around too long, has a **** load of money, and keeps producing great games.. They were still cranking out great games as the PS3 was coming out, Rogue Galaxy for example. I'm sticking with Sony, IMO they come out with better games in the long run, I don't hate micro though.

Microsoft is a smarter competitor, you want to know why. They make the ****ing red lights of death so you have to go and spend money to get it replaced. Sad thing is, it's the truth.

I've had mine fixed, but I still dwell on that moment.

more of a reson to buy a ps3:

BLU-RAY CONTROLLS 70% OF HD-MARKET AS WARNER BROS. GOES EXCLUSIVE

Time Warner's Warner Bros. movie studio announced today that they will no longer produce films in HD DVD format from June 2008 and that they will become Blu-ray exclusive. With this move, Blu-ray will own 70% of the high definition market share, basically putting the nail in the coffin for Toshiba's HD DVD.

“Warner Bros.’ move to exclusively release in the Blu-ray disc format is a strategic decision focused on the long term and the most direct way to give consumers what they want," stated Barry Meyer, Chairman & CEO, Warner Bros. "The window of opportunity for high-definition DVD could be missed if format confusion continues to linger. We believe that exclusively distributing in Blu-ray will further the potential for mass market success and ultimately benefit retailers, producers, and most importantly, consumers."

Since Warner Bros. controls 18%-20% of DVD sales in the United States, this should lead to quite the bump in eventual Blu-ray sales. "Consumers have clearly chosen Blu-ray, and we believe that recognizing this preference is the right step in making this great home entertainment experience accessible to the widest possible audience," said Kevin Tsujihara, President, of Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group.

Blu-ray exclusive studios now include:
- Sony Pictures (MGM, Columbia, Tristar)
- Disney (Pixar, Buena Vista, Miramax)
- 20th Century Fox
- Warner Bros. (New Line Cinema)
- Lion Gate Films

Stay tuned for more information.

Even if you just want to watch hi-def movies, theres a few articles out there, that did reviews, and the ps3 is the best Blu Ray player out, beating the stand alones.

I feel bad for the people who invested in HD DVD collections though.

HD-DVD IS ****ING DEAD: PARAMOUNT AND DREAMWORKS MAY DROP IT FOLLOWING WARNER'S MOVE.

In a decision that will unarguably end HD DVD’s run at an attempted war, Paramount has shown signs that they are poised to drop their HD DVD support. Both Paramount and Dreamworks came out last summer and showed support for the HD DVD camp, however, this support is now wavering greatly with the move of Warner Bros.

Paramount is believed to have a clause in its contract with HD DVD that allows them the opportunity to shut off support of HD DVD if Warner Bros switched their allegiance to Blu-ray. As most may know, Paramount is set up to have a huge blockbuster list of films to release in 2008.

If Paramount follows what is believed to be a support switch, it would inevitably end HD DVD’s life. With Warner giving Blu-ray 70% of Hollywood’s output of work, the implementation of Paramount and Dreamworks library of films would push that percentage through the roof. Right now, it is unclear if Dreamworks has the same clause written as Paramount, but the chances are likely.

CES has brought an unprecedented amount of good news for the Sony faithful on all fronts. PSU will continue to cover this story as more news breaks on what is happening behind closed doors.

Seriously with all these big company's backing blu-ray now, i dont think theres any way HD vidoe will be a bust.....and blu ray is definatly winning the war........

HD-DVD could be dead, movies-wise, but theres still PC media/drives since toshiba is all over that.The HDDVD 360 add-on can be used on a PC too so...


but a single format would be better overall though.

Companys just see it as a better way to make money. With that jacked prices on any sort of High Definiton player, I will settle for the subtle less quality version.
