You do realize it is the original version of SWOS, not some updated gig.

Yes but Im trying to make you admit that you want a PS3.

Im failing miserably arent I?

 

[Dylan]

A little bit.

The only reason I can see right now to get a PS3 is for the (poor) Blu-Ray player. But as I have a HD DVD player, there is no need.

Future reasons....uhmmmmm, ahhhhhh......uhmmm.....Gran Turismo 5.

And that's it.

I'll get Pro Evo 2008 soon enough, then I will provide the cannon fodder for you all to get your confidence up on.

Speaking of, anybody remember Cannon Fodder on the PC??? Brilliant game back in the day

I don't remember that.

Now, here's a question for the old timers.

Anyone here ever a PC gamer on the old Apple IIe?

ripped-off how exactly?

your talking rubbish mate!

everything goes down in price eventually.

following your line of argument to its exagerated conclusion maybe I should wait 10 years and pay £10 in a car boot sale, for a ps3 otherwise I'm getting ripped off!!

just for the record, it is nearly 12 months since I bought my wii, and theres not a chance that price is coming down anytime soon, they still cant meet demand in the uk.

As for the games, try playing an online game 12 months after release, esp sport games.
go to your bargain bucket and pick up last years ea titles and see how many people are playing it online now that most people have moved onto the current version.

If I wanted to be thrifty, I wouldnt get into games at all.

Come on, ten years??

Well the system must be different over were you are. But here, your likely to pay around 50% of the original price 12 months later. Even less if you trade in your old console.

Here your mad to buy a console straight after release, Its people like you that the developers love so they can overprice there [Poor language removed], and they know you wont think before paying a out a grand for something that just isnt worth it.

And besides, you have to wait 12 months before you see any decent titles come out for the system anyway when the rest of the games designers catch up and know what the system can do.
