I know Xbox online is pretty damn popular, but is anyone else on PS3 networks? It's better than Xbox!

Ouch!

At the moment PS3s and Xboxes are the same, but if there could be a game that could fully harness the power of the PS3, it would pish all over the Xbox. But, until then...

When I move out I think I'll buy an Xbox, the PS3 belongs to me and my 2 brothers, so on my own I only own the minority :(

And I'm already stuck against a boss on Prince of Persia! Gah!

I wanted a blu-ray player. Best one on the market is the PS3. At least, that's what I told my girlfriend (although there is a certain amount of truth to it apparently)

Bonus, I get to play Call of Duty World at War and shoot Germans. I think it's a genetic thing...

Yeah, they do..... £5 a month!!!! MWHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!


Very good point about Blu-ray player though.... Makes a PS3 half price if you look at it that it comes with BRP included. xbox may be £129.99 now, but its another £150 for a Blu-ray player!!

I made a late decision to get a PS3 due to the Blu-Ray thing, it was all part of the deal for my new telly, I'm now off to gamestation to get a good deal on Fifa09, and will be acquiring wireless at some point, happy days.

Ive had my PS3 over a year but only started using it online a few weeks ago. Now I play CoD4 online all the while. It's great and for free, you can't complain. Playstation@Home is good aswell, if I cant be arsed to play a proper game, I just go on there and play someone at bowling or pool.

Aw man, you're one of them? My brother wanks on and on about that game, but I've tried it and I'm just not a fan.

Honestly - I don't care. As far as I'm concerned they're on a par these days. Difference is I got so good at Fifa so quickly about 10 years ago that I got bored with it and switched. I STILL haven't mastered Pro Evo. Although I do play games a hell of a lot less than I used to.

Ah fair enough. To be fair part of the reason I hated Pro Evo so much was that I was apocalyptically shit at it. Fifa at least I can handle.

Also, if apocalyptically isn't a word then it is now. Booya.

Not a big loss as far as I'm concerned. The fact we get Metal Gear Solid far outweighs that.

I'll take your word for it, I played Gears of War and didn't like it so I'm not even gonna bother with Resistance. I heard the first one sucked too, so meh.

I'm told Resistance 2 is fantastic. I don't know, I haven't played it, but none of the recommendations I've been given so far have been bad.

I've not played CoD5 yet, but I'm still content with CoD4 so I won't be buying it for a while yet.

Also, for both PS3 and Xbox gamers out there - Prince of Persia is fantastic.
