I now have 2 fully functioning PS3's, and two dead 360's. No more Left 4 Dead 2 for me for a while. I've invested too much to not get a replacement 360. I will not be rushing out to buy their next console and making that stupid investment again. Knew I should have gotten Borderlands on the PS3.... |

Isn't that 3 nil to M$, if you're buying a replacement 360? What's to bet that this becomes Microsofts standard business model - release a console that breaks down regularly and forces replacement, but time it so that people are 'addicted' enough to actually bother to replace. It's planned obsolescence taken to the next level... |

That's a good idea Traitor. I'll make it a special award (for when I finally finish them) that people can wear like a Purple Heart. I guess you're right Blue. They've royally screwed me. Won't happen again though. If I do get their next console, it won't be at launch and it will be for the likes of Halo only. We all bitched about the price of the PS3 when it was released, but it's ended up being the bargain console now. Who knew??? |

That sucks :(. The PS3 is great value these days. Even if you don't use it as a console. Crazy times. 360 controller ftw though. |

I fired it up to play Left 4 Dead 2 as well. Was hanging for a game. Always the way when these buggers break. I agree Wil, if the Dual Shock was laid out the same as the 360 pad and had better triggers, it would be a major improvement. MS can keep their shitty dpad though. |

I prefer the 360 controller and 360 chatpad and placement of the D-PAD. The PS3 chatpad is shit in the spot its in with its small arse keys, shit that it has to be charged up not like the 360. but i agree the PS3 should improve its handling its made for small hands not very comfy to use Edited by JAMSIN, Thursday Dec 17 2009, 01:48 PM.

That really sucks. I am buying all my games on PS3 now because it is so much cheaper to import and everything is region free. Even though my PS3 broke and my 360 hasn't yet I still prefer PS3 since it is much better value and there are better exclusives. Also I prefer the PS3 controller because that is the controller I have used the most throughout my gaming life. I'm buying my parents a PS3 for christmas, they will probably like a lot of the psn games. |

Where did you get it from? I want to get one with blu ray movies because they have foxtel IQ so don't really need play tv but all the console packs have play tv at the moment. |

Got Play TV today for $149. Eb price matched Gametraders cause gamertraders were out of Stock. Anyone have a PSPgo?? Need impressions. Was interested in the fact that recorded shows from Play TV can be uploaded and watched on PSP ect. Guy at GAME talked me out of it today cause he said its not worth the price tag atm, plus no UMD. Not to fazed about UMD though, quite happy to D/L. He did mention that there were plans to release an external UMD drive later. GAME were the cheapest aswell from my look around $384 |

I played a demo PSPGo at JB, and the layout sucks - very uncomfortable. I'd plumb for the much cheaper PSP 3000. |
