Forums - Gaming - so i spent £400 for it to gather dust... *sigh*

@Rock_on_2008 i actually have 3 hdtv's in my house (totally unnecessary to have so many i know) so i get use out of my hd consoles, but not too bothered about blu ray. i never bought dvd's and i doubt i'll start to invest in blu ray. altough occassionaly i do rent a blu ray title if i'm having a movie night at my house

so i own all three consoles and i would love to pay them all attention, but when ur busy this is nearly impossible, and when you develop favourites this is even harder.

when i bought my ps3 i bought it with a decent slection of games, pro evo 8, assiasin's creed, armoured core 4 and ninja gaiden sigma. well i remember a couple weeks ago i realised that i had completed all of them and hadn't played my ps3 for ages, so i decided to go spend some cash on games. but when i got to gamestation there was absolutely nothing i wanted, as alot of multiplatform games i have for my 360 already. so i was organising my room today and decided to pack my ps3 away because it was an large eyesore and collecting a suprising amount of dust. its actually a dissapoint spending that much money just to have it collect dust. and i care nothing for the blu ray movies as i'm not really the type of person to buy dvds and such.

i'm not bashing the ps3 in anyway i just think its a letdown when compared to the wii and 360, and an overpriced one at that (wish i had waited for the price drop now)


im actually the opposite to you, i buy all games on ps3 thats where most of my time is spent, my 360 was sat there for ages, but i bought lost oddysee for it which is decent.

i also dont find anything on the shelfs at game or gamstation for 360 that i want, all the decent ones ive had already like gears, halo and mass effect

each to their own i suppose



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

"but when i got to gamestation there was absolutely nothing i wanted, as alot of multiplatform games i have for my 360 already."

I think I have spotted your problem. Buying both a 360 and a PS3 is a bit stupid. Its like having a 360 and a gaming PC.

Well you have to admit it is pretty good at collecting dust, with that shiny black surface and all!


Seriously though, owning both a 360 and a PS3 will probably leave one machine mostly unused, since there are so many multiplatform games between the two. It is one reason I am hesitating to buy a 360.

2 be honest i think that the exclusives that each one has is worth owning both. i mean 360 has halo, gears and lost odyessy. while ps3 wil have final fantasy and MSG. i guess i wish i jsut choose the timing of my purchase a little better thats all.

You can do one of the followings

1) Fold
2) Watch Blu Ray's
3) Browse the internet

If you post just to insult a console it sort of looks like trolling. 



I've also heard stories about how people have stored their Wii's away, or how their 360's are currently collecting dust.

It comes down to the personal tastes of the gamer. Perhaps you should have done more research on the titles being released on the PS3 before making a purchase. Or perhaps you should do more research on the current titles available on the platform, you might find one you'd like.



 

Lots of people purchase a PS3 expecting a HD version of every classic game of the PS2 to come out. Some people I guess get sick of waiting for these great games to arrive.
