PS3 80GB $499 WHAT YOU SAY

[Milks]

I decided to buy The Orange Box instead of Folklore. D:

On the other hand, $399 without BC is pretty tempting as well. I never had a PS2 so I don't currently own any PS2 games that I'd be longing to replay. I just thought it would be cool to pick up some discounted classic titles because I wanted to check the FF games, and KH/KH2, maybe MGS but that's about it.

I'm not *dying* to play those games so I wouldn't exactly miss them.

2 usb ports? Big deal. Can buy a USB hub for 5 bucks. 40gb instead of 80? Big deal, can buy external usb drive if I *really* needed one.

Pretty much all I want is new games, blu-ray player, and internet access. I think the $399 40gb guarantees that. Now if I could find a sale or a blue-ray deal where I got it for cheaper than $399 I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Don't worry, there will be plenty of deals coming up, it being the Holidays and all. It'll either be Sony with 5 bluray movies, $100 off from Sonystyle for signing up for a credit card or like a 10% coupon from Circuitcity or something neat on Black Friday.

Edit: This 40gb has WiFi right?

Yes the 40GB has WiFi. Regarding the hard drive, you don't need an external hard drive. You can just buy a laptop hard drive and slide it right into the slot where the current one resides.

Good choice, that game is like the best value ever.

I would have bought it by now but can't get on live atm

TF2 looks so fun..

[Exoduso]

I would buy the Orange Box if I had played through Half Life 1. (I hate playing a storyline from the middle..)

Ep1, or half life 1? Because half life 1 had like no story. Can probably download both now anyway.

[Semitry]

Portal the best game in the box needs no Live or previous story to enjoy.

[Norelco]

Not sure if mentioned, but 60gb is $499 at circuit city, but they throw in a free wireless controller ($50) value, and then the 5 BluRay deal of course.

Not sure if I want to muck with the SonyStyle $100 deal...just to open a credit card and then cancel it again a few months later.

Honestly, I could care less, if you dont like it you dont like it. But since you didnt want to give your reasoning one would assume you were just making it up.

Yes, because anyone who thinks the PS3 isn't worth the rediculous price tag is just "making it up". I might be kinda late to the party, but isn't it kind of a given that the PS3 isn't worth the $600? Folklore and Warhawk are the only games worth their price. Should someone really have to play $500-$700 just to play them? hell no. At the end of the month, PS3 will be getting it's first bona fide system seller in R&C.

People are asking 'y dont u liek ps3' when the better questions is "what games on PS3 are worth getting one over 360 or Wii." When a parent walks into a store, what system would you sell to their child? Their teenager? Their college student? Right now the PS3 doesn't rank 1st in any of those categories.

The PS3 lineup just isnt there. It will be next spring, but now? Please, lol. I wanna try Folklore though >.>

Metal Gear Solid 4. As I stated before.. the sole reason I am buying a PS3.

People really need to stop getting their panties into a bundle over why people don't like a system. It's fucking retarded, some of you are starting to sound like the bunch of morons at /v/.

Welcome to forever.

So why are you quoting my post again? I wasn't even talking to you. Much less bunching my panties over anything, lol.

[Hitoshura]

I am aware of that which is why I only bolded the question that was obviously meant for the people. Please don't get butthurt again over something that small/stupid.

[Deejay]

If you can't handle people who voice different opinions than you over a video game forum... you've got problems. If I were you I'd suggest you shut the fuck up and deal, or just don't read said topics lol. What exactly did you expect to be reading? People debating over better consoles isn't exactly something new.

[Hitoshura]

If it's a matter of discussion or debate on consoles it belong in the console wars thread. This is a fucking PS3 price slash thread and it got turned into a bitching thread in a matter of a few posts.

and you're right it's idiots like you and Exo who think they are the avatars of good and right when it comes to console/video game discussion that is the reason why I don't bother which most video game related threads.

You act like I had anything to do with the derailment. Thread was started, someone bashed PS3 and it took off. It happens in every thread, where have you been?

If I'm wrong then I'm wrong, lol. Never claimed anything I've said is the end-all be-all for videogame discussion. You're bitching about everyone arguing over this topic when you seem to be the one taking things the most seriously.

What do you want everyone to do? Hold hands and fondle all their systems together? I mean seriously...

I cannot wait for this. Also, I read something on Joystiq or something (I forget where) that the original release date has been brought back and it is now coming out next Tuesday. Guess we'll wait and see.

Ninja Edit - here is the link:
http://www.joystiq.com/2007/10/19/futur ... and-clank/ :D

Apparently there's also a small amount of copies available as of this moment.
Not 100% sure but the person (on the internet) I heard it from seems pretty trustworthy.

Is there one thread about anything related to PS3 that hasn't had an influx of haters who will never buy the system but feel the need to tell everyone why it sucks and their idiots for buying it?

It's like the ultimate bandwagon.

Nope, lol. I'm only enjoying this because I had to deal with that shit for a while whenever mentioning a game for 'lolxboxisheug' on these (or any) boards. It sucks being in the minority sometimes, which is weird considering this is a Final Fantasy forum so you'd expect more PS onry posters.

Sorry, since its looking like a loss this Gen for PS3, its going to be shit on at every mention. Its a natural part of the console wars.
