The Official PS3 thread

Damn I feel like somethings wrong with me but RoF doesn’t look that appeasing. Correct me if I’m wrong but to me the battles look like you hold a button and when you release it the character does a cutscene? It’s not looking like a first day/week purchase to me yet

Not being appealed to a game that some SRKers are appealed to means there’s something wrong with you?
I don’t see a problem with that…I’m getting RoF either way though, mainly because my friend recommended it to me.

Should I start an FF13 thread? I can help out with some gameplay tips if anyone wants (I think I’m halfway through the game)

man i am really not sure if i want to get ff13, still kind of on the fence about it. i feel like if i get ff13 i’ll play it for a few weeks and then shelf it for a long time, like i did with ff12. i just am not really all that hype about it now from what i’m seeing/hearing about the game. how long is it though?

maybe i’ll get heavy rain instead.

I’ve clocked maybe 25 hours so far, with 10-15-ish hours left. So total is prob. 40 hours, minus side quest battles I think.
Mind you I did not grind and just went through the game normally fighting any fight that comes my way (some I avoided due to their difficulty)

looks good. hopefully they’ll announce a concrete release date soon.

Meh, I’ll get 13 eventually. Not for a few weeks though. Heavy Rain has my attention and I’m picking up RE5 Gold tomorrow.

meh i got FF13 coming tomorrow. will play it and keep it in my collection.

and then on to gow3 next.

Pre-ordered FF13 & GOW3 from GS, even got a free full size poster for GOW3. On the fence on RoF…hmm
After that still got Heavy Rain, Yakuza and DA:O.

This month I will be getting-
1- Trade in RE5 for RE5 Gold
2- 3D Dot Heroes (or is that in April/may?)
3- Resonance of Fate
4- God of War 3

What are other games coming out this month that I should look forward to? I already have Yakuza 3 BTW.

BTW anyone know when the Dante’s Inferno code can be redeemed for those that got the Death Edition?

im picking up yakuza 3 tomorrow. 3D dot game heroes comes out in may i believe

Sony has done that kind of thing with the ps2 and ps3. Nintendo has done it with the Wii. It creates this impulse to buy the system in question if you happen to see it because you’re under the assumption you won’t be able to get it later on down the line.

I’m sure it’s a mix of both, but I’d lean more towards a forced shortage, simply because we’ve seen this before.

Anyway, I’ll update the front page post tomorrow with more of what you guys have added.

Got Yakuza 3! This is going to eat up quite some time, I’ll borrow GoW3 from a friend once he’s done with it.

Hell no it was satire. I have self esteem, I’d like to think :confused:

has anyone got Bad Company 2, im not sure which one to get, MW2 or BC2? any suggestions?

My sincerest apologies, lately I’ve come to worry if SRK has become a society where the majority’s preference is the norm, so…

^This alone reinforced my day-one purchase of FFXIII. :rofl:

I can’t wait till XIV comes out, used to love XI.

Thanks for the info!

I’m hoping FFXIII isn’t a letdown, I’m going to pickup my copy today but I have to wait until my PS3 comes in from NewEgg. Basically, I’m not expecting FFVII and not hoping for X or X-2, for FFXIII.

Same here. I’m sure I’ll enjoy it (even the worst FF’s have still been better than most RPG’s, IMO).

Congratulations on snatching up a PS3, by the way! :slight_smile:

For anyone still looking for a PS3, check out the deal that Dell has going on now (yeah, I know, loldell and all that jive): http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/31458/Playstation-3-Slim-120GB-Console-269-or-261
$30 off, if you can wait out the “Usually ships: 1-2 weeks” timeline that they have on the site. No idea how accurate that is.

Front page should have info on how to access the Japanese PSN

Also this:

I bought mine for $0.19, but I can’t find that deal.

Thanks! I’ll be more confident when I get an e-mail saying it has shipped, though. I get to pickup my FFXIII pre-order and stare at it until then :(. I was going to just get it for my 360, but if I’m getting a PS3 I’d rather just play it on that.

Also, is Heavy Rain worth a purchase or should I just maybe rent it? I heard it’s very short.
