Forums - Sony - How much of the PS3's abilities do you use?

oliist on 02 September 2008

Nearly everything besides:
Don't watching Blu-rays and DVDs,cause my PS3 is imported.
I don't have modded my console.
Don't playing games anymore because at the moment Sony and Co have nothing to offer that I want.
I am starving to death while waiting for LBP,WKC,FFXIII & Versus XIII,The last Remnant,RE 5,Wipeout HD and maybe Killzone 2.

Well since it doesn't have any games I want right now I only use it by watching Blu-ray movies on my 116'' screen in 1080p



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Instead of copying the whole thing, I'll say this:

I use the best ability of the PS3, play games.

Also watched a movie on it but I don't really care about that.
