I'm getting a summer job this summer (obvi) cause without a job I can't graduate. Earning minumum wage and getting my 30 hours of work I'll make an easy 300 dollars. In a summer I can make near a 1000 dollars and of course with birthday money I can easily afford a PS3

I'm just wondering if it's necessary

I am just buying a PS2 with all the ****cs I missed out on, luckily not MGS but cla ssics like shadow of the collosus and Ico

I really wanna play MGS4 and am tired of waiting for the 360 port, damn you Kojima!

Games like Valkriya Chronicles, God of War 3, and Final Fantasy XIII Versus also look great

Do you think it's worthwhile for me to make this investment? Do your work system wars

I own a gaming rig and a 360 by the way as well as a Wii.

Yes. You will need a back-up when your 360 craps out.

I hardly play my PS3, I wouldn't recommend one unless they come out banging with what made the PS2 so dominant. which is unlikely. It's your money, at least your not spending it on drugs lol .

Yeah that's what I figured, I only want 3 games, Resistence 2, Killzone 2, and others don't interest me much at all R2 is beaten by Gears of War 2 and Killzone 2 is destroyed by Halo 3....

Well... Its all about games... If you like the Games on the PS3 and can afford 400 (its not much IMO) then Go for it... I would look through the PS3 Section of this site instead of Making this topic on System Wars... Its not going to do any good for you or anyone that posts here...

Do you play games?? PS3 has had a lot of good games this year so there is really no reason to "hardly play my PS3." It's had more exclusives and in general they've been higher rated than what's available on X360. And 2009 looks better for PS3 as well.

I thought you were a major 360 fan? If you own a Wii, PC, and 360 you might as well get a PS3 when you're able to. Its nice to have all the consoles. I just need to get my Wii fixed. Go for it

If you have all of the other systems and pay for xbox live every year and don't have a lot of money , then don't bother. Just learn how to ignore the good looking ps3 games , I am sure some people in here can teach you how they do it.

All the good games they have, I can get on the 360. Their exclusives right now are not what I bought the PS3 for, besides Resistance 2.

You should have picked it up fathers day weekend... They had a special where if you buy a PS3 at wallmart they gave you a $100 Gift Card... So I got my PS3 for $299

PS3 is a very virsital system and I love the fact that most of my....Ahem, "Videos" are on my PS3 but the games that intrest me are on the 360 (and most of the time there better). Gaming/Online PS3360.

also, if you want a PS3 for Killzone 2 I'd wait til the game comes out and read some reviews. I fill Killzone 2 might be get some mixed reviews.

True but MGS4, God of War 3, and FFXIII versus are big reasons no? And also there are so many other games I'm slightly interested in like Valkyria Chronicles, and Killzone 2 maybe Of course I'm waiting till the summer to see what gets announced.

Sounds like you are missing out. Just off the top of my head these are some of the games for 2008 on PS3 that aren't on X360. Racing: GranTurismo Prologue, Motorstorm Pacific Rift and Wipeout HD Sports: MLB08 The Show & Hot Shots Golf Horror: Siren RPG: Valkyria Chronicles & Disagea Platformer: Little Big Planet Niche: Singstar, Buzz Quiz Shooters: MGS4, SOCOM & Resistance 2 The fact is Sony has a lot more inhouse development than MS and 2009 looks to be the same with PS3 having more exclusives again.

Well for starters, I'd go with this:

MGS4 PS3 bundle

They just got restocked I think last week and they're also available at Amazon. It might be a $100 more from what you're going to work on but it's a pretty good deal. If not then you can go for this one:

GunMetal Grey PS3 MGS4 bundle

It doesn't have bc compatibility though...

That's fine, but I'll tell you this, you're going to be disappointed unless you give it an equal share of the love. Like the guy early on in the thread, he doesn't play his PS3 because he gets everything on 360; you've got to pick and choose what game, for which console.

They didn't say they wouldn't make exclusive games, they just said they aren't going to be supporting one console like they did with the PS1 and PS2 where 95% of their games were released on those consoles.

More so than that, I'm talking like splitting your purchases in half between 360 and PS3. And in your case, between the PC as well.

The only game I would recommend personally is MGS4. The others don't interest me, it's fine you enjoy it. A lot of people seem to do.

I just bought the MGS4 special edition 40 gig for the sole purpose of playing MGS4, and it's totally worth getting a PS3 if you're going to play more than 3 games and if you get one with backward compatability I say go for it

Yeah, I've gotten most of my consoles as birthday presents or as gifts since it's about all people know to buy me I got a 360 for my 16th birthday, a gamecube for my 9th birthday I think, a N64 for my 6th birthday and a SNES and NES existed before.

I bought my Ps3 with my own money at 14 last year and haven't regretted it for a moment. Go for it. All Ps3 1st party exclusive are actually exclusive...*looks at Gears and Halo*.

Get the PS3 and call it a day. Oh yeah: - MGS4 is not coming to 360 - If you get a 360, then buy a second as backup because it WILL crap out on you

I'm getting a summer job this summer (obvi) cause without a job I can't graduate. Earning minumum wage and getting my 30 hours of work I'll make an easy 300 dollars. In a summer I can make near a 1000 dollars and of course with birthday money I can easily afford a PS3

I'm just wondering if it's necessary

I am just buying a PS2 with all the ****cs I missed out on, luckily not MGS but cla ssics like shadow of the collosus and Ico

I really wanna play MGS4 and am tired of waiting for the 360 port, damn you Kojima!

Games like Valkriya Chronicles, God of War 3, and Final Fantasy XIII Versus also look great

Do you think it's worthwhile for me to make this investment? Do your work system wars

I own a gaming rig and a 360 by the way as well as a Wii. Toriko42

Who ever said MGS4 was coming to the 360, i've never heard that, i heard it's a Sony exclusive this gen, and if you want to play the system that will have more exclusives, not to mention superior specs, then by all means get a PS3, i have the 160Gig model myself. Don't listen to anyone in here who says there's nothing to play on it because all the multiplats make the 360 and PS3 library nearly identical, and not only does Sony have more exclusives, they have better ones...MGS4, Uncharted Drakes Fortune, GT-5, Ratchet & Clank Future, MLB The Show 08, Resistance 1 & 2, White Knight Chronicles, Killzone 2, God of War 3, Infamous and many more to come. So work that job and get that PS3, and i promise you'll never feel the urge to play any other console.
