Forums - Sony - I played the PS3 for the first time....

Glad to know I've choosen from the 2 beats of next gen consoles the best then Strange I hear people complain about the sixasis. Except the fact it doesn't include rumble, the controller maintained the same ever since the analogue controller with the PSone. Except I miss the rumble only a very few times, I have no complaints about the controller... at all.

 And the DS3 improves it, and I think it has better trigers and analogue sticks, but I'm not sure on that, but it certainly feels better in the hands

My girlfriend and kid sister hated the XBox 360 controller (too bulky -> cramps), I didn't hate it but certainly prefer the PS3 controller. I like to have the analog sticks next to each other, I can't imagine being within the top 0.1% highscores if I played Super Stardust HD with the 360 controller.

I hated changing and charging the batteries, just using a USB cable connected to my PC or PS3 while still playing is IMO far more comforable. Imagine having 3-4 controllers, what a drag...

You must have nearly the fastest reaction times ever (plus a lot of luck) that game is just really hard, though I think I am quite high in the leaderboards, how do you know the total number of people in the leaderboards?


 I've certainly got my money's worth out of Super Stardust HD. Got some dang high scores too, in top 1000 on most planets. Arcade though I'm well off.

 Here's a question...how exactly do you get a Zero score as some people have it?



Hmm, pie.

Yeah I agree, the analogue sticks feel lighter comparing to the ones of the PS2 controller plus indeed the trigger buttons feel better. I hope this is with the rumble controller as well, as I might be buying it someday. Up till now I don't really find it necessary

You have to be very special.... I noticed some people on CoD 4's leaderboards whose accuracy is more than 100%, which is quite impresive

the 360 is the superior console

360 controller > ps3 controller
XBL > psn
360 GPU > ps3 gpu
360 games library > ps3 games library

yep that's about it.
conclusion: ps3 is owned and totaly expensive

I was within the top 50 last year due to being in a competition with a friend, he gave up when I scored more than a hundred million more points than him and then after this even more than doubled my score. I haven't played the game since August last year (most recently I completed all Motorstorm tickets and before that finished Oblivion, main quest and side quests including Knight of the Nine) and dropped a hundred or so places meanwile.

I am really looking forward to the multi-player pack!

PS3 vs 360 sales

 What!? I can be an ass too..

You have to admit that its hard not to agree after such a well written and mature argument is put forward by RAcCoOnErOuS.

Care to put forward any reasons why you think the PS3 > X360 other than the fact that the 360 controller is better?

@MikeB
I'm currently on a play for a few minutes while i have time, so it's only planet by planet. I also already have the updated version with Rumble and 2-player game (unless multiplayer pack is different). Score in that is crap because only done it twice and my partner wasn't totally interested.

I'd love an update with a few more planets.



Hmm, pie.
