Buying a PS3.

im honestly not trying to argue, but you definitly just made that up.

give me three examples
Click to expand...
RTS
Shooters
MMOS
Puzzle games
Many types of Sim games (i.e Flight Sims, and The Sims, lol...)
and, IMO, RPG's.

If you want specific examples, look at the end of last generation. For shooters, there was nothing on consoles that could do what Battlefield 2 did. FF XI sucked compared to WoW, or Guild Wars. Nothing on consoles came even close to Company of Heroes (if there even was anything on consoles, for RTS's, lol). There are like 50 trillion great puzzle games you could find for free, by typing the name into Google, so PC definitely has consoles beat there. Its been slow for CRPG's as of late, but Dragon Age will change that in a few years...

And Hines, RTS's SUCK on consoles. I don't know how you can say they can even compare to PC's, given how annoying moving around with a stupid analog stick is. >:(

As for FPS's, Halo 2 controls pretty good, but that's 1 game, and even it can't compare to any PC controls. Also, 4 buttons? You use a mouse on a PC. If you've been using arrow keys to aim, I understand why you think PC controls suck. If you're talking about for movement, having a mouse in conjunction with the arrow keys makes it more precise if anything. Plus, the PC has more good shooters than consoles.

If you need any proof of the PC's superiority to Wii in terms of controls, go on the internet channel, and compare the precision of movements to a mouse.
 
No comment on PC games. Don't have any. Don't play any.

As for the PS3, I read somewhere that the recently discontinued 60G (Or 80, 100 or whatever) is still in big supply for the forseeable future. And why did they cut it? Supposedly the bigger hard drive systems are becoming cheaper to produce (Duh!!) and that some of the not-yet-mentioned games that will be coming out for the system will need the extra space to flex it's muscle. Trumped up hype? Maybe. But only time will tell.

All I know is as soon as I have the coinage to spend on a PS3 and not other, more practical things, I will buy one. Mainly because all the things that people are complaining about are getting my hopes up for an awesome gaming experience.
 
Even though this thread is meant to be about PS3, I've gone off-topic before in this so I may as well discuss PS3 vs. PC or whatever. For me, FPS' feel awkward and dodgy without dual analogue. I find the 360's diagonal set up the most comfortable but I don't have a problem with the regular horizontal. I hate playing games on a PC. No idea why, really. Besides, don;t you have to shell out for new software and hardware regularly so you can play the newest games?

im very sick of the "fps is better on pc's" argument

halo 2 controls like a dream with dual analog, and actually allows more precise movement because of an analog stick, not just four buttons.

and metroid prime 3? controls better than any fps on any pc iv ever played

period

rts, just fine on consoles

MMO's are all the same anyway

well i know halo and metroid have the best controls ever but it feels better playing with a mouse in games like unreal and you wanted 3 examples so XD.

RTS good on consoles, i have to disagree with that, mouse + many many soilders= great. (although i think the stylus is better than the mouse in this XD)

MMO's well moving my character in a console is better than with a mouse or arrows i give you that, but i like playing MMO's with a keyboard.

hmmmm but you can play with a mouse and a keyboard (i think you can) in the ps3 and 360 am i right? so i think in this generation the pc got kicked XD.
 
Go make another topic for PC vs Consoles. Both are great in their own respects. The end.

Let's get back to PS3 discussions.
 
i got a question :), about the home thing (i now many would want to kick me after this but)........what's that?
