    So i bought me a 60gb ps3 today. I paid $425 for the system, Killzone 2, Littlebigplanet, Drakes unfortune, Shadows of Colossus and HD component cables. So how'd I do?

    Killzone 2 is a lot of fun, haven't played Drake's yet, but I hear it is one of the best looking games on the system. I'd say you should get an HDMI cable to replace those components. SoC is supposed to be awesome too, it's in my back log right now.

    Don't trade in those games. They are phenomenal games.

    Drake's is a very fun game. You got a good deal. If you only use it for Blu-ray you're cheating yourself. There are are a lot of good games you should play. Resistance and MLB the Show are two excellent ones for starters. Heavenly Sword is an underrated game b/c it's short and was released when nobody had a PS3 yet. But it's a lot of fun and a very well made game.

    Great Deal!! Drakes is a bit short but one of the best games I have played this generation.

    I like Shadows of Colossus a lot but I'm only half way through it.

    plus its on sale at a lot of places. think it was 15 bucks at a sears essentials. i paid full price for it, and enjoyed it. of course theres MGS4 too and as muscle mentioned, the resistence series is a must own for ps3 users. drakes was a lot of fun. all awesome imo. and u get to kill a couple of hours with "home" too...however that ended up a bit more disappointing than expected. i just dont get paying 3 actual dollars for a stupid make believe love seat.

    I got that for my fiance for her birthday, and we have been playing together, and we both like it. I really like the motion control part with Ky (sp?).

    Congrats and you definitely got a great deal.

    I still don't get misinformed comments about the PS3 only being a Blu-Ray player because that's not true and comments saying such seem outlandish to me. :pity:

    So i've played about an hour or two of littlebigplanet. Great game. It's easily the most creative game i've played since world of goo on the wii. Haven't gotten to either Killzone 2 or Drakes yet. Im not entirely interested in Killzone because I have the 360, so it's hard to get excited for another shooter.

    is it any different than 'Wii is for babiez"? I mean theres several reasons why that statement isnt true but people still say it nonetheless.

    The Wii's motion control is not as accurate as needed to play most of the games I have played on that system.

    Boom Blocks is fun though

    Killzone isn't just another shooter IMHO.

    infamous is definitely on the list. Infamous, MGS, and Ratchet are probably my next few games. Unfortunately Sonys got absolutely nothing in the near future to tempt me so im in no hurry to finish these games. I went to preorder some games for it and realized there isn't one game i want on the system until next year. and I dont like god of war. FF XIII and Versus are different stories though.

    You got a great deal! Although imo drakes goes stale about 3/4 through. You'll see why. Drakes 2 looks awesome though

    Def got a good deal. Drake's was fun, looking forward to the sequel quite a bit. I agree w/ mor that it probably got a bit stale, but still worth playing imo. Welcome to the darkside

    I think I know what part you're talking about. By that point the game's almost over so it didn't bother me too much.

    i think we're on the same page too (i think we talked about this way back when it came out)... but yeah it's close to the end. I got through it. I really enjoyed it, and by no means am I saying Drakes is a bad game. I was just a little confused as to why they went that direction.

    I'm trying not to spoil anything obviously

    Well i'll cross that bridge when i get to it in Drakes. Going to be awhile before littlebigplanet lets me play anything else though. i'm a huge platformer fan so this is game is like heaven for me.
