If you have a receiver somewhere in your home theatre setup and it is going to your TV then an HD cable would be fine HD out to your receiver then Composite/Coax to your TV (which would already be there) then you would also benefit from the surround sound :)

Also based on the games that you like, I can't believe Demon's Souls wasn't mentioned... Best game this gen so far for me :)

Also Little Big planet is a blast, even if you are younger, or have friends over. I never get tired of b**ch-slapping my friends.

Gaming addict gave you lots of good ones in his list, I have all those as well, all great games depending on what genre you like.


OOOOMMMMMMGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!

i knew i forgot some REALLY REALLY!!! good games.

little big planet is perfect if your a fan of the wii i highly recommend it.

demons souls is very good to but i will warn you as of right now that its the hardest game in the world (that i've ever played)

and you might get frustrated at times but its really fun and if you get stuck often i recommend playing online for tips and clues from other players. i also recommend it very much.

The game is friggin so hard, I remember a CAD-comic where the main character said:

"I finally beat the first boss in Demon's souls"
and the guy goes "Really?  the XXXX boss?" (cant remember his name, and then the main character goes
"No.... just the first foot soldier, I call every enemy in that game a boss, it boosts my self-esteem"

Seriously awesome game, not so much if you get frustrated easy, this game has 1 of 2 effects on people, they love it or hate it.

Then I tried NG+ and got royally killed as I made a magic user 1st time around and had like no health - so was being 1 shotted on everything after Tower Knight :(

what other games do you have?

I have a bunch, I have added most of my ps3 games to my profile, and 360 games as well.

Not all of them, as I tend to lend them out and I can never quite remember what games I have :)  Good friends though so I needn't worry.

I think I have about 30-40 PS3 games and the same for 360, and about 8 Wii games, 8 PSP games and 2 "legit" DS games, PC gaming has kinda taken a backseat since I have all the consoles, even though I have a gaming desktop (well 2 actually) and a gaming notebook :)

I'm terrible though, I will buy a game, play for a bit and either one of two things will happen:
1)I grow bored of it and put it on my shelf to play later (which doesn't happen very often, still have not beaten Darksiders or inFamous yet) and Lego:Star Wars and Too human are still in the skrink-wrap lol
2)Another game that I want comes out before I finish a game and it too goes on the shelf.  That's kinda the reason I haven't finished Darksiders yet, is I bought it, went on vacation for a month, then came back and bought Mass Effect 2 (which was put on shelf) then WKC, then beat that, then bought Bioshock 2 and beat that then went back to Mass Effect 2 and beat that the other day, now Heavy Rain is coming out, so I won't get back to Darksiders, though I hear Heavy Rain is short, so maybe between the time I beat that and FFXIII comes out I will pick up Darksiders again..

So yeah I bet I have actually "beat" maybe 20-30 of the games I own - my philosophy is when I die, if there is an afterlife we get to take what we had in life, so I will have lots of games to catch up on for eternity ;) (OK I don't really believe that but just covering my bases)

I found the comic!

http://www.cad-comic.com/sillies/20091023

Awesome site, both the sillies and ctrl-alt-del comics

this was also the best comic I think I have ever read! It was way back just after Squeenix first (or was it the second time?) said that FFXIII was NOT going to the 360

Demon's Souls hasn't even released in Australia... Good thing the PS3 is region free! I love that!

I wasnt even aware of that game at all, or that Uncharted 2 had multiplayer. So, thanks guys.

3 questions: Is fallout 3 any good? Cos it's pretty cheap.
Is GTA4 as good as the reviews are for it?
Is MGS4 worth playing if I have never played any others in the series?

You can kinda tell ive never really payed any attention to the PS3 or its games...



 

 

 

 

 

Check out my pyro tf2 vid :)

 

Bet With routsounmanman: By the end of Q1 2008 Capcom WONT have announced a RE5 Wii Edition OR a new RE (classic gameplay) for the Wii (WON)

Fallout 3 is one of the best RPG's this gen. The GOTY edition is out now and includes about twice as much content, but it's a full priced game. I'd say it's worth it. You'll end up paying more if you buy all the DLC seperately.

GTA4 is not 98 good, but if you've never really played a GTA before you might be blown away.

MGS4 was the first MGS I ever finished and I loved it. You just have to keep reminding yourself "it's Japanese" every now and then :P If you don't have the patience for long cutscenes stay away from it. The gameplay is incredible though.

Have you considered LittleBigPlanet?

Is GTA4 as good as the reviews are for it? - No, not in my opinion
Is MGS4 worth playing if I have never played any others in the series? - Yes (even though I never finished it - bring on the flames!)

Something i never thought i would be saying... Have only ever owned nintendo consoles. Ive owned a Wii since launch, and not too long after that got a gaming PC. Since getting the PC, ive kinda gotten more into shooters and "mature" games... And the Wii really doesnt have a good library of those so for my 18th in a few weeks im getting a PS3! I found a good deal of a 250gb slim with playTV for cheaper then the rrp of the 250gb on its own. Ill still have the Wii for Zelda Wii and other nintendo made games but the PS3 will be my main console...

It wasnt too hard to decide between PS3 and 360. 360 shares a lot of exclusives with PC, i dont wanna pay for online, the PS3 does blu-ray, PS3 has GT5 coming out eventually which im really keen for. so...

Is the HDMI cable worth getting if i dont have a HD tv?

My favourite games on PC are bioshock, the half-lifes, tf2, left 4 dead. Apart from Fifa 10 i havent decided on what games to get yet, so recommend me :D

Welcome to the familly!! (I hope lol)

You need a HD TV to experience the best out of a PS3, nag whoever has the money for as HD TV, you can get a relatively cheap one now (if it's small).

If you cannot afford a HD tv, and I hate to say this as PS3 is the better deal, get a x360, although you will still need a tv with component connections, so either way it is going to cost you if you only own a standard LCD tv.

The best games on PS3 are Oblivion, Killzone 2, Uncharted 1&2, MGS 4, LBP, Modnation racers (i liked the beta loads:P:P), Demon Souls, GOW III, Valkyria Chronicles, and GOW III.

Edit: oh yeah if you like Zelda, make sure you try out Darksiders, it is basically an adult version of Zelda (it's multiplatform with x360 don't worry)

the first two bosses on Demon Souls was easy, getting to them was much harder tho lol, espicially if you are using the magician class
