Today, i had went to Frys to see if the game prices have changed, just walking around. I then came across the PS3 section, and have come across two standing problems/questions. What games to get, and if i should get a stand for my PS3 when i get it. I need a recommendation on some games to get, i have chosen between MGS4, Valkyria Chronicles, Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet, preordering Killzone 2. but i need to pick two games to get, one competitive game and one with a good storyline so that i can play well through. Please help me with some recommendations for games. For my last issue, i saw a stand at Fry's and because of my lack space in my Living room, i have an armoire but it holds my tv and my wii. The only space i can put it in is next to my armoire on the carpet where my 360 use to sit. I just need to know if getting a stand is necessary, if it causes any problems to a PS3, if it helps it because of my carpet floor.

Use the sticky at the top of the board, and don't get a game stand because you'll want your PS3 lying flat, not on it's side (lying it on it's side restricts air flow, which is veeery bad for the system)

Well, you put your PS3 vertical, and it's lying on the side of the system that brings in air to cool the console, that's very bad........

The PS3 is still going to cool properly whether its placed vertically or laying flat.

No need to get a stand... about games... try Uncharted: Drakes Fortune, Ninja Gaiden Sigma (if you don't have it in your 360), Heavenly Sword...

if thats the case, then your assuming air only flows vertically and through visible holes....in which case putting it on its side would expose more surface area, and not only on one side, but on both sides of the system (which putting horizontally would completely cover)....
