Thats a tad harsh....

The PS3 had a rough start but its coming back.

"Hey PAL territories. Yeah, you. Bite me. Not only did you have to wait four months longer than anyone else for our console and pay 50% more for the privilege, we're going to completely discontinue everything except the 40gb model before Christmas. No 80gb console and no PS2 backwards-compatibility for you. Ever. Get bent.

Lots of love,
Sony.

Everyone's guilty of neglecting certain parts of countries, it's not just sony or ms. Does it make it right? Well, no - but can't point the figner when both have flaws up their ass. As good as these new systems are, I'm actually kind of disappointed in them.

What? I didn't hear you...

Is the 60gb the best one to get? If so - how much is it, and wheres the best place to get it? I want to be able to play ps2 and ps1 games.

I got my 60 GB at Walmart.

[Libra]

So it is the best system to get?

I'm happy with mine, but I don't know if it's the "best". The 60 GB has the card readers built in and HDMI out.

True, but over here at least Sony takes the cake right now. I did want a PS3 initially; now, it's not worth it for me without PS2 compatibility. I'd have been content with the software emulation but this is just ridiculous. Whoever thought it'd be a good idea to sell only a crippled console in one particular territory needs firing. Possibly out of a cannon.

What's that?

Oh, sorry. I was busy playing a decent console.

Not in PAL country

So wait, those of you saying the PS3 is crap, have you ever at least owned one? No? Then go back to Gamefaqs for your little "arguement". PS3 has plenty of games that are as good or better then the exclusives that the 360 has. For every Halo or Gears, the PS3 has Resistance, Ratchet, Uncharted, and oh, whats that, Unreal Tournament 3, with actual user content. Wheres that User Marketplace blade, Microsoft?

No I haven't but I don't actually care. Halo is shit. GoW is overrated. Ratchet was good when I played it on PS2. Never heard of Uncharted, sounds like some animu shit RPG. UT3 is meant to be played on PC.

There's nothing wrong with the PS3. I do however think Sony are twats for discontinuing the old version and forcing "PS3-Lite" on non-NTSC consumers. Then again, I suppose I could just import one of th...

Oh. Wait. Sorry, forgot we're not even allowed to do that.

Both are great systems with great exclusives and features. I'm just not too happy with anything right now personally.

Exactly. I have no problem with you saying that theres nothing you want to play. Its when you go and call something shit when it has the same games as the 360, bar a minor few, with a console that doesn't die (Coming from someone who went through 5 360s or some crap like that).

And Uncharted is anything but Anime RPG shit Its made by the Jak and Crash creators, Naughty Dog, and it features some of the best graphics on any console (and animation, and just gameplay).

Looks like Tomb Raider.
