Oh that's good.

My friend who has a 360 tells me that PS3 isn't good for online gaming because you can never find people online to play with, is this true? He says If I want to play games online I should get a 360 instead. But I prefer free online service and the PS3 exclusives, White Knight Chronicles looks like a lot of fun but if I can't find people online to play with that will kill a big part of the game.

LOL.  He sounds very unbiased.

You won't have any problems finding people online.  Especially for games like Uncharted 2 and MW2.

Okay, that is very good to hear.

I guess my last question for now is, do you guys think It's worth $300 to get the PS3 slim at this time?

The bolded is the reason why most american's who are interested in core gaming buy a 360 over a ps3, they have that in there heads. And people say fanboys(this is not directed at anyone on this site) can't influence people's decisions..

 

 

That's an absolute lie.. its just as easy to find and play with friends on psn as it is on XBL.. the communication is really the only thing that's different.

edit:

 

@the $300 question

yes, its beyond worth the $300, make sure you buy an HD TV some time too.. the graphics will impress you. Along with the multimedia features which will likely make you say "WHAT? IT CAN DO EVERYTHING?"

Okay thanks, I think that is all I need to know. I think I will make the purchase in a few months when I get the money.

Thanks for the info everyone.

Be sure you have an HD TV.

Thanks for the fast replies, I was just wondering If it is unwise to buy a PS3 this far into the generation, I don't want to buy it and watch the PS4 come out right after.

If this is your only concern.  You should really buying one, else i don't see you ever buying any consoles at all.  As the technology has evolve by daily basis (same as mobile phone, computer etc)...You should buy it just to enjoy the game instead of worry when is the next new technology will be due.  



why would his first game be uncharted 2? Uncharted 1 (aka Uncharted: Drakes Fortune) would be the obvious game to buy and play before the second.

Anywho, yes it is a good time to buy one. PS4 will not be out for another 3-5 years. I would recommend Uncharted 1 then 2, Killzone 2 (the first killzone on ps2 if you wish to play it), Batman AA, WKC (coming out in feburary), Heavenly sword, Darksiders, and whatever else suits your fancy



dont forget the soon to come Gran Turismo 5, add that too your collection



PS4 won't be released before a few years so you really shouldn't worry about that. PS3 is just starting to take off, you can buy one now.
