Austin Powers Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I for one aint bothered about PS3 anymore, mainly coz it's so damn overpriced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockybalboa Posted February 13, 2007 Author Share Posted February 13, 2007 Has anyone got any idea of how much the controllers will cost??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melde_Amy Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 How are they different from all the other playstation things? What I know about game could go on a postage stamp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacknDaniel Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Has anyone got any idea of how much the controllers will cost??? At most, the controllers will be 34.99, possibly could be as low as 27.99, but id plan for the higher price if I were you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gebes Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 Mine's pre-ordered as well, No.4 on the list in HMV!! As the games are region free, have already bought some from Ebay, and got a controller on it's way!! Can't wait to play the games, and hopefully get my free copy of Casino Royale on Blu-Ray as well Also the idea of being able to officially install Linux on the PS3 and be able to surf the web etc, also appeals to me! Could then practically do away with my PC!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could then practically do away with my PC!! I was thinking on getting some american games as well, but I wasnt 100% sure theyd be compatible. I know theres now different regions(just to confuse us more) for Blu Ray and PS3 can only play one of the regions, so for instance, we cant play imported american Blu Ray discs. So as games are on Blu Ray discs, I wasnt sure that theyd be playable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowDisney Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 (edited) You'll be impressed..i dont doubt that. Isn't she lovely..hehe I know they are saying it has a universal power supply (especially seeing as ours was from the US) but there's no way i'm testin that theory and blowin up over $1000 worth of equipment lol. That $1000 dollars by the way bought the System, and extra controller and 5 games. Machine itself was $599 which aint too bad i suppose . Was told by the guys in the shop where we bought it that the games WEREN'T region free so doubtful as whetrher to buy any UK games for it.

Manbeast Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 So what games are you getting with it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHRIS !! Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 The console we have only came with 1 wireless controller, so you will definately need another one for 2 players games and I would recommend the 60Gb one as the 20Gb cannot be added to. I would recommend Ultimate Alliance and Blazing Angels. We've had many hours playing them both We also have a boxing game which I cannot remember name but thats not fantastic. Call of Duty is good but was finished within a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspen Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Can't wait got two pre orders in One at Gamestation number 10 and WHSmiths Number 1 so bound to get one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call of Duty is good but was finished within a week. Just to update on what Chris was saying about the 20GB model (if and when its released here) . Despite what you may be reading on Fourms etc about people 'upgrading' the 20GB. This is NOT possible. I'd advise anyone not to try it either..as it can AND will invalidate any warranty you may have and may lead to the machine ceasing to work completely. As for the Games we bought Marvel Ultimate Alliance is a must..such an addictive game. Blazing angels has superb graphica and realistic control if you choose to use the SIXAXIS motion. Fight Night Round 3 is unbelievably crap and just rushed for the launch. Call of Duty 3 - Simply astounding Final Fantasy XII, im just starting so taking a while to get into as the battle controls are quite different from previous versions and taking quite a bit of getting used to. Only thing dissapointing me is that the SIXAXIS controllers do not support the rumble feature of the Dual Shock 2.

Thermos Flask Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Is it backward compatible? Will it play PS2 games too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philmerv Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Is it backward compatible? Will it play PS2 games too? (from a description of what the PS3 can do) Play compatible PlayStation 2 and PSone game discs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowDisney Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 Yes will play SOME PS2 games but not all of them. Will also play a huge back catalogue of PSONE as well. There was bulletin regards this on the BBC news website couple days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RainbowDisney Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 It may play ok online dude.. Just the normal play mode for me wasn't that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RainbowDisney Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 GAME's guarantee is worth s**t to be honest. I forked out the required deposit for a PSP the other year supposedly to "guarantee" a unit on release day. It never happened and after waiting 4 weeks i demanded my money back. Meanwhile people who pre-ordered well after me or just walked into the store got one straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee_c00per Posted March 9, 2007 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Don't worry. If you went and pre-ordered a PS3 in GAME today you would be guarenteed. SONY have a whopping 220,00 PS3's for the UK Launch (xbox 360 had 20,000) Most stores have only around 50 pre-orders so far with stores getting around 80 consoles each and the larger stores like GAME on Oxford Street getting around 200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
