    That is ridiculous.

    If it didn't that would be like 80% of the market gone.


    Also PS3 games are on blu-ray, and plays just fine on my $50 12"

    The games themselves are blu-ray, I think that shows well enough that normal Telly's can play BR

    You can play BR movies on standard TVs, they'll just be in 480i. Not sure what the point of it is, but there ya go.

    the point was that there was a spider-man 3 blu-ray that I would actually try and watch and I was wondering

    JEEZ NOT EVERYONE IS FROM THE FUTURE LIKE YOU ASSHOLES

    anyways yeah I'd rather have the 80 gig since it's at least somewhat backwards compatible

    Do I need a new (HD) TV to use Blu-ray Disc?
    No. Pre-recorded Blu-ray Disc titles will play on any standard definition TV set, even if the video was encoded in High Definition. Likewise, a Blu-ray Disc recorder can also record standard definition video, for example from regular TV broadcasts or camcorders. A Blu-ray Disc can store around 10 hours of broadcast quality standard definition video on a single-layer disc, or around 20 hours on a dual-layer disc.

    kuribo ps3 software emulation is really good. people don't seem to acknowledge it at all, but it works well and more compatibility issues are resolved with every firmware upgrade

    You will need an adaptor to transfer your existing saves. I imagine there are a lot of cheap used ones by now, since you really only need them once.

    Motorstorm is actually very good.

    The bikes are a pain in the ass, and you can crash 4 times in 30 seconds, but if you have a good run, you feel so damn extreme.

    Resistance is actually very good, and the AI Is merciless.

    I guess you would be too if you were a hybrid monster that hated yourself and wanted to die.


    Motorstorm I'd pick up second hand if I were you, It is great fun though.


    Lair can be fun, but you'd have to be brave to buy it. Slaughtering thousands of lowly foot soldiers is always fun.

    There is an easy mode. Although, the game pretty much calls you a homo if you choose it.

    The game with the camera, a starter deck (30 cards, same with every game) and a booster pack runs for $70, but you can find it for around $55 at amazon last I checked. Themed decks of 30 cards with 1 hero card (not possible to get with boosters) costs $15, booster pack of 8 costs $4, and you can find a box of 38 booster packs online for around a $100, though they are in short supply right now.

    I really want to play it I am just iffy on the paying for the game after I already bought the game aspect

    I mean I'm no stranger to ccgs so I shouldn't be surprised, but man

    then there's the fact I've never seen the cards anywhere around here

    I've been looking at linux for the ps3

    this would basically turn my ps3 into a fully functional linux pc, yes

    like, I could install pc games that work in linux and whatnot?
