Title: PS3 quickie game impressions
Post by: morphix on November 22, 2006, 05:22:51 PM
OAs is going down time to move on I guess...

Decent racer, much better than the NFS that launched with the X360.  The in game character models are freaky real looking and so far it is really easy.  Doesn't look much different than the X360 demo I tried.

My brother's fav PS3 game.  Mindless action, loads of bad guys to kill and easy as shit.  What more do you want?  If you like the genre this is a must have.

Great looking game, plays like a faster version of the Onimusha games.  If you can get past all that battle crab stuff and give this one a fair chance you just might be surprised.

ugh this is one horrible game and I am a huge Gundam fan.  The game is just shit, the more I play the more I hate it.  Avoid!

Best PS3 game out right now.  Take MoH and replace the Nazi with Aliens and you get the idea.  The graphics are crisp and clean, very pleasing to the eye but is missing the detail fount in newer X360 games.  It is loads of fun and definitely worth getting if you have a PS3.

RR6 was one of my fav X360 games, RR7 is not much of an improvement.  The game has a much more vibrant look to it now (the X360 looks dark in comparison) but most of the tracks in RR7 come from RR6.  The only real addition to the gameplay is the slip stream meter, gives you a boost when behind a car.  Great racing game but it feels like I have been playing it for a year already.

yawn, another TH game.  The create-a-skater mode bites now but the graphics are nice.  Looks just like the X360 demo, if you are a fan it is better than the last TH game.


Overall if you own a X360 there is really no reason to pick up a PS3, going to be a long time till we see some games worth the $600 price tag.  So unless you really like Blu-Ray movies or have an abundance of disposable income give the PS3 a few more months.

Nice impressions - and if you're moving here permanently, welcome aboard and you rawk.

Do you mind giving more impressions of Resistance?

I played a ps3 the other day and the controller is terrible. The L2/R2 buttons are awful.

The L2/R2 buttons are stupid looking but work well enough.  I played Motorstorm (non-waggle mode) at Target last Friday and thought it was a lot of fun.

I appreciate the honest impressions.  Often times you see people who are gonna tell everyone how great their PS3 purchase was, and how much they love it.  I like the fact that you bought one at launch, but are still willing to tell others it's not worth the $600 right now. 

It will be in the future though.

I played Motorstorm at a Gamestop today. That controller is too damn light.

I agree on most of your hate. But why did you buy the shit version of TH? So much better on 360. I just got done playing Resistance i'm doing no way out right now and its pretty good. Not awesome but still good. Haven't touched Genji yet but i'll play it tonight.

IN other news the control is just way too fucking light. I move my hands around a lot when playing games and it just moves around too much.

Its far from shitty looking.  Haven't played it enough to tell ya if its generic though.


The Gundam game reminds me of the Godzilla game from the DC Japanese launch.  I want so much to like it but its just sucks soooo much!

I played with a PS3 last night at a friend's, the 60GB model

He only had Resistance, and we played it on crapTV (480i?) -- it looked like crap, I swear I have seen PS2 games that looked like this

HD is another story, maybe it is completely different

We then got the WiFi working (i had to manually check with my DS to see if i could find it), and browsed the internet -- first thing we did, look at porn! It worked. Awesome. I wish X360 had a browser.

Then we downloaded the Blast Factor demo, which I had HEARD played like GEO WARS... boy was I WRONG, it plays just like Mutant Storm only WORSE. Ugh. The demo is wack. The game is wack too. We didnt get Cash Money Cars or the other things, he didn't download the demos currently up and we weren't gonna sit around and wait for them.

So he fired up Resistance online, which is also lame as fuck. It did not look fun at all.

Whatever. PS3 sucks.

only a distinguished mentally-challenged fellow would play a PS3 in 480i  :-\

They make a system for 480i, it is called the Wii.

Tell your freind that it is almost 2007, get a HDTV already.

Regardless of graphics, Resistance played like shit, both online and off

meanwhile games like GEARS OF WAR LOST PLANET DEAD RISING look phenomenal and play it on whatever resolution thrown at them

this can be a problem

Resistance is just not the graphical powerhouse the SDF wants everyone to believe it is.  I'm sorry, it holds nothing to GoW.  Resistance looks like it's stuck between generations and Gears of War looks like a real next gen shooter.

Call of duty with aliens, no ww2.

Simple enough.
