Is there anything to do with my ps3 with no games yet? I only had enough money for the console. I've played demos and some of my old ps1 games. Is there anything else to do in the mean time while I try and get more money for a game?

I guess you could try out PS Home. Or put some of your music into the PS3.

First update the system if you have a flash drive you could put some movies or shows on it. try out Home rent a game might not sound like much but its all you really can do without a game when you do get a game I recommend your first game be something with replay value and online support.

You could put movies in the PS3 with a flash drive? Sounds good to me. I'm a noob when it comes to technical things, but that's news to me. Now I just gotta figure out how to do that. Any suggestions on how? :) Thanks.

As for TC, well, you can try renting games at your local Blockbuster. It's a cheap way to start gaming. Enjoy! :) Recommend Infamous---just started it, and loving every minute. :)

Yes. You could look at it as something educational so even if you're skipping school and sitting at home, watching porn you can learn something.

I used to do that for a long time. I believe I had something like 451 unit done. Then I stopped. My PS3 needed a holiday from all that work. then I just never got back into it.

I had a game before I picked up my PS3. The worse thing is having a PS3 and no games :] Anywho, its not that bad you can troll around gamespot and see what games you want to get; Demos and stuff can kill some time.

Rag Doll Kung Fu Fists Of Plastic is a free game (in North America), Timeshift, Lord Of The Rings Conquest, and Lost Planet have muliplayer demos. (This is all on PS Store plus you can play them as long as you want but you won't get all the muliplayer maps and ect. for the multiplayer games but Rag Doll is the full game) Dark Sector is $9, Madden 07 is $5, All Pro Football 2k8 is also $5, NHL 2k7 is $5, and NBA 2K7 is $5 at Gamestop.

As said Warhawk is also a Multiplayer demo but Timeshift I like the most out of the demos.

I think I'd get off the internet and go mow some lawns or something. Focus on getting a game. Appreciate the thing for what it does THEN enjoy the fun bonuses. Why not just rent a game?

Mirrors Edge NEW is US $25 at Wal-Mart or get it used from Gamestop for the same price. Although I highly recommend new considering there's essentially NO price difference and you get the chance to open the game yourself and smell the plastic and it's newness! Plus there's pretty much a guarantee there's no scratches... although there have been the rare instances, but in any case Blu-Ray discs are hard as hell to scratch up. Not that I try or anything. >_>

FroznYogurt
Use it to watch movies (DVD and Blu-ray), rent some PS3 games at a Video store (i.e. Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, Family Video), check yoiur local stores that sells video games to check and see if they have any clearanced PS3 games that fit your budget (I know Kmart has Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock bundle [game & guitar] for $28 and the Aerosmith bundle [game & guitar] for $21, and Rock Revolution bundle [game & drums] for $17), or buy some used PS3 games (check GameStop/EB Games or Pawn shops).

Download the inFAMOUS, UFC 09, Red Faction, Warhawk, Motorstorm PR, and MGS4 demos they all are pretty fun to play and will kill a lot of time. Or post on craigslist that you have no game for your PS3 and maybe some one will pity you and give you a free game lol
