ITT we talk about the PS3 and how gay you are for having one or how gay you are for not having one.

Uncharted is pretty fucking awesome.

    i borrowed heavenly sword from work because I wanted something short to play and I got to the part in the beginning where you use that girl's rocket launcher or whatever and I got bored and haven't played it again

    I didn't pay any attention to Uncharted until I found out it was made by Naughty Dog. They make great fucking games.

    I was looking into Ratchet yeah, that was my next game. Skate was alright from what I played of it.

    I'm edging towards Ninja Gaiden Sigma, as I'm a big fan of the original XBox game and never touched Black.

    As long as you are not spoiled by good camera positioning (e.g. if you have played God Of War, you probably are), NGS is great. The two gripes I have with that game are that the camera, mainly during boss battles, frequently works against you, and also it is RIDICULOUSLY hard once you beat it one time and start unlocking higher difficulty levels. But if you liked the original, well, this is basically a version that looks way prettier and has more modes and more shit you can do, plus it has levels where you play as Rachel so you can see what exactly happens that causes her to be captured every fucking time you see her.

    I haven't had any problems with my PS3 and I've had in since December of last year. Never had any disc read errors unlike my 360 which is getting tons now. I've never heard that many stories of people's PS3s breaking.

    i've rarely heard of anyone having problems with their PS3. I bought mine used and I haven't had any problems.

    What is a 'must have' PS3 title?

    I am trying to come up with a reason on getting one and blueray really isn't enough. I have a 360 already so 3rd party stuff that comes out on multiple systems isn't an issue.

    I didn't really enjoy the PS2 Ratchet and Clanks.

    Explain to me what Uncharted is. Never heard of it besides that screenshot up there.

    Guess I'll eventually get one though because of MGS4, whenever that comes out.

    Assuming you haven't already defeated the game, Uncharted will very likely charm the shit out of you. The writing and characterization are as good as you're likely to see in or out of this medium. They execute the pulp hero, deliver on the perfect sidekick, and knock the salty mentor into Goddamn orbit. Flawless. I played the game in large part to see these incredibly drawn characters interact with one another. My concerns with the game may be entirely my own: I had invented a game that I thought Uncharted was going to be, and when it deviated from this imaginary template I was displeased. From demo content I had played, I'd established the Prince of Persia/Gears of War motif fairly early on, and that's not really fair. For one, there's considerably more combat than that equation would suggest - to the extent that we're even retaining the Prince/Gears form, Gears should probably be first. And the platforming isn't even remotely like the Prince, which relies on increasingly complex chains of manual precision. Uncharted very rarely asks anything like that from the player. Most platforming sequences don't really involve puzzles, and timed responses (outside of the occasional instant-death quicktime event) aren't really part of its grammar. They're almost like interactive cutscenes, in a way: beautiful in their presentation, they connect combat arenas and evoke its deep pulp adventure roots.

    I'm still pretty much madly in love with Eye of Judgment, even though I don't play it that much.

    I really want to pick up Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank, but at the same time, I always want to get Eternal Sonata for the 360, and maybe even that Final Fantasy XI disc that comes with everything, so I can hate myself for a few hours each night.

    People like you who don't like nice things are why we have nice things but nobody realizes how nice they are, and then other people complain about how we never have nice things, so the people who made the first batch of nice things stop making them and everything happened backwards but the final result is that we don't have nice things anymore and it's your fault.

    also the demo is actually a little bit into the game, so you're used to the controls and everything by the time you get there

    Like when I played the demo, I thought it was like Tomb Raider where my pistols would never be out of ammo

    whoops

    also it didn't tell you about melee combat
