well to be honest there aren't any PS3 games out right now that interest me. I still have 2 PS2 games I bought a couple of weeks ago and I still haven't played them so I'll play those on my PS3. One of the reasons I got a PS3 was for GTA IV and GT 5. I think I'm gonna download GT HD so...yeah

buy a couple of games off the PSN. I would suggest Calling All Cars(if you have broadband internet) and Super Stardust HD.

Grats! Welcome to the party! If you have a nice HDTV, you're really going to get spoiled pretty quickly by Blu-Ray movies, (300 comes out on the 31st on BR).

I got mine about a week ago. I bought motorstorm with it and it is okay. I probably would have gotten it used off amazon instead of buying it new if I had to do over again. Right now I am playing all the PS1 and PS2 RPGs that I missed over the years. Final Fantasy Tactics, Front Mission 4, FFX, FFXII, and a couple of others. Those will have me going for quite sometime. I am going to get resistance also sometime soon.

It isn't so much the number of games, we have TGS for that, it was the fact that the quality of those games is unbelievable. For me, I used to absolutely despise the PS3, as anybody on this forum could tell you. I thought that there was no way that Killzone 2 could come close to that trailer...but it did, far closer than I'd ever imagined. The same with Metal Gear Solid...I miss the series (didn't play 3) and want to be a part of Kojima's last grand vision.

Then I re-watched the White Knight TGS '06 vid, the FF13 vids, Warhawk vids. Saw the Gran Turismo 5 screens, and all of a sudden it just clicked. The Playstation 3 did take a while to take off, but now its going in full force. People do want it. The entire Gamestop got quiet when I bought mine it seemed (I actually got a little nervous, like they were going to all attack me at once) and since it was too big and heavy to put in a bag, I carried it through the mall, counting the sideways glances all the way through. A very satisfying purchase and one that let me know that Sony is going to be alright.

I just bought a PS3 two days ago myself. The price drop (along with some gift certificates I had) and the fact that the newer PS3s are going to run old games on emulation software prompted this move. I do have one question though. When I plug my PS3 into my (older) HDTV, I can only get it to work on 480i. If I plug in the Hi-Def cables (my TV supports 480p and 1080i), all I get is a jiggly screen. Anyone know how I could fix this? One problem may be that I'm using the old HDTV cables from my PS2 (which, incidentally, I could never get to work correctly). The cables fit perfectly into the system, and are from Sony, so I'm not sure if they should work. They look kind of flimsy for HD cables though. Any suggestions?

Well I bought my PS3 on Tuesday but posted a thread beforehand. I hope I didn't start the wave (I doubt I did) but you are right I have seen a lot of these threads. Congrats to the OP.

You are? You realize you could buy a PS3 and upgrade your HDD drive and spend less than you would for the 80 gig bundle.

Symphonycometh

no site is accurate because none of them actually ask the retailers. NPD group is about the best, but they only release their findings once a month....and their sales data doesn't include Walmart or Sam's Club.
