Seriously though. What would it take for you to buy a PS3 for 600 US dollars?

Himu · « **Reply #1 on:** May 31, 2007, 11:16:58 AM »

Nothing

.....Shenmue III...

I never did mention this to anyone but since I'm still dazed and confused I'll tell ya this, I played shenmue one for about 600 hours across 30 playthroughs looking for new shit. Every playthrough I found something new from mushmouth swearpants to the SLUTZ of the docks.

Himu · « **Reply #6 on:** May 31, 2007, 12:09:03 PM »

WORD.

One of my favorite characters in the first one was the slut at the Tomato Convience Store at the docks. She would always try to turn Ryo into a movie star or something and she always like NICE ASS. I CAN TURN YOU INTO SOMETHING SPECIAL. LET ME SUCK YOUR DICK AND SWALLOW YOUR CUM, BIG BOI.

And Ryo's always like,"No, not interested."

T234 · « **Reply #7 on:** May 31, 2007, 12:11:59 PM »

Well she did have sharp knees.

Himu · « **Reply #8 on:** May 31, 2007, 12:13:30 PM »

And that chick Miki who always invites Ryo for dates and shit. She had wet pants for Ryo.

Man that game is hilarious.

I guess Fran at ODCM was right, Ryo does make the girls swoon.

Fran, if you read this, YOU WERE RIGHT AND I WAS WRONG.

I want Shenmue III. What other game lets me play as a homosexual Asian who journeys across Asia looking for gay sex? There's even a transvestite Chinese guy that chases you with a chainsaw. It has everything.

Bud, what the fuck is up with all these new gaffas from europe? Just the other week we had pollock-on-pollock trollin in the leaked halo three footy thread.

I'm gonna make an old folks of the winternets home (forum) that will be invite only and surrounded with the various dossiers I have of (gaf, EB, cag, and CC) people. Only interesting people, devs, the infamous, and old timers allowed. So as people can talk about games in privacy and without the noise of bullshit trollin, dumbass adolescence, and sales numbers. Just nothing but news, impressions, discussion. and no moderation except when necessary.

It's out on 360 in August, right? I played a VF5 demo on a PS3 at target the other day. Can't wait.

It took Resistance initially. For me to buy another one, a next gen Team Ico game.

No, but it will likely have the same depressing slide to irrelevancy and misery that most of the Cute Knight players experience with their characters.

Looking for more Final Fantasy following the Xbox 360 port of Final Fantasy XI? Then you're going to have to look to a different next generation system. A Square Enix executive has disclosed to Japan's Nikkei BP that the company currently has no plans for Final Fantasy games on the 360.

Noting that the PS3 is getting Final Fantasy XIII, the website asked Square Enix's Shinji Hashimoto if the Wii or Xbox 360 will also be getting games in the series. "For the Wii, we have FF Crystal Chronicles in production," replied Hashimoto. "As for FF on the Xbox 360, it's currently a completely blank page."

Strong words from Hashimoto, although perhaps if everyone goes out and buys Last Remnant (that includes you!), Square Enix will have a change of heart.

Square-Enix is going to have the biggest money problem since the film with this then. PS3 is selling worse than GameCube did and this seems to be the most expensive FF yet.

Make fun of me all you want, but the promise of mainline Final Fantasy titles is what made me buy a PS3.

The wife and I were talking last night, I think I'm getting a 360 for my birthday in August, just in time for Blue Dragon.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #35 on:** June 05, 2007, 05:10:28 PM »

FF games have REALLY gone downhill tho. There was a certain magic even to FFVII and FFVIII as the FF series began its decline into half-assed mediocrity that depends so much on the name and its fans to carry sales numbers.

I miss the Einhander/Brave Fencer days

I dont want you to get the impression that I got a PS3 just to add legitimacy to my trolling, but god damn there isnt much im looking forward to aside from Hot Shots 5 and Heavenly Sword.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #36 on:** June 05, 2007, 05:31:25 PM »

Not even Uncharted? It's my most anticipated title, aside from FFXIII and MGS4.

There are some good games, but I can honestly say that I wouldn't own a PS3 if my wife hadn't got a ridiculously good bonus this past year. I'm all in favor of a price drop.

Why I will not buy a PS3 until it hits $300:

1. No games I want to play.

2. Backwards compatibility for PS1 is still fucked up.

3. Backwards compatibility for PS2 was fucked up as soon as they went for the emulation solution in the newer consoles.

4. It is big and fat and looks like the lean mean grilling machine.

5. Bluetooth is fucked up, and the controllers occasionally conk out.

6. They removed the vibration from the controllers instead of paying up to the people they stole the technology from.

7. They didn't bother to include a slot for transferring save files from PSX/PS2 memory cards to the PS3.

8. They didn't bother to include a slot for plugging in PSX/PS2 controllers.

9. Sony sucks.

Himu · « **Reply #40 on:** June 11, 2007, 12:48:51 AM »

You can transfer saves from psx/ps2 to ps3.

But you need to buy a separate gadget to be able to do it. $:-\$

as someone in japan how is the hate for PS3 over there? Is it comparable to the detest the system gathers in the states from the media and gamers?

Ichirou · « **Reply #44 on:** June 11, 2007, 08:43:56 AM »

It's not selling and no one really cares for it. Not even the Japanese franchises like Gundam Musou are moving units. Japan is DS and Wii country.

Sounds like America, except 360 does "decent" over here. But America is very much becoming locked down as DS & Wii country. I used to hold out that 360 may become #1 over here but that is quickly becoming insanely unlikely.

Nintendo was way way off about when the industry was ready for disk based games and they were way way off about when the industry was ready for online gaming. But somehow they fucking got lucky about when the industy was ready for HD.

Ichirou · « **Reply #46 on:** June 11, 2007, 10:47:03 AM »

I can see units moving when the new FF comes out (though maybe not, considering how Square Enix has saturated the market with FF already...), and when MGS4 finally comes out, but the PS3 is never going to be number one in Japan.

It will be like GameCube in Japan. Big franchise launchs boost sales and then the week after it is back to normal.

I don't see it being a system savior, but I'm really curious as to how well Minna no Golf does this July.
