3 on 3 NHL Arcade gets one week exclusivity on PSN

Feb 5th 2009 2:54AM (Joystiq Playstation)
OMG, Sony uses billions of $$$ to buy EA off!! Have to be, it can't be that they like the PS3!! (At least, thats what everyone says when the X360 gets something like this).

Supersonic Battle Cars European release delayed another week

"remember sony actually listens to its fans :D"

...so true. Sadly enough most fans must be asking for no games, no fun and no support.

A fair question :)

Btw, if you like your PS3, im nothing but happy for you.

As said, I am a gamer, I need my console for playing games. So whatever features it might have, besides playing games, is not something that I use too much.

The thing is, that while there might be some "ok" games for me on the PS3, I feel I get better on the others platforms. Some of the multiplatform games have had some problems on the PS3, and before we got throphies, I liked to buy games for the 360 to get achievements (and play with my friends, since most of them have 360'ies). I also better like the 360 controller.

The main reason however, is the games. The only exclusive game on the PS3 that i RLY liked was Uncharted (that game was one of the best games last year imo). I hated MGS4 and Resistance 1 and 2 just didn't worked for me. LBP is great fun, yes, but for some reason I only played it for a week, then it got boring.

One the other hand, a lot of the Wii/360 (and PC, since I play WoW) games have entertained me for a very long time this year/last year. So in the end, Im just not entertained by the PS3. It might be me, but I also hear the same story for my friends and on a lot of sites.

Maybe.

But I still play like 4-6 hours a day. Mostly on the 360, but also on the PC and my Wii. Only the PS3 seems to get all dusty. When I get friends over, they usualy never wanna use the PS3 (though I do have most of the so called must-haves).

I just think that it is possible, that some (or most ppl I know) just don't like the PS3 and think it is a waste of time. But still we like Sony and loved PSX and PS2.

For the record, I am a gamer. I use my consoles for gaming. I do not need a mediacenter (since a have a PC). Maybe if I didn't have a PC, it might be possible I would use my PS3 a bit more.

Why are you a Xbox idiot, a Nintendo nerd og something else, if you don't like the PS3? I loved my PSX and the PS2 was, more or less, the best console ever imo. Still I think the PS3 is somewhat the worst thing ever happened to me.

I am big Sony fan, and my hope is, that they'll listen those who actually dare to tell the truth. I have never been so bored with a console, and I did start gaming with the C64 and have had almost any console since then.

Sorry, no trophies for 1942 or Bionic Commando [Update]

Well, trophies was not important to them because they didn't have them. I have a 360 and a PS3, and I never bought multiplatform games for the PS3, mostly because of the bad controller and lack of achievements.

It is great fun comparing your score with your friends and most of my friends spend time doing this. Also, we play games more to get the achievements, so you actually get more out of your money.

Of cause, PS3 only owners would not care before, since they then had to admit that their console lacked something (the list is too long as it is).

No, it is not. Achievements is very much something the developers WANT in the games. Since they know that they can sell games on that account.

I will buy these games for the 360, because of the achievements. If they had trophies, I would prolly buy at least one of them for the PS3.

PS3 firmware 2.41 now available

"Those lucky enough to have 2.40 working on their systems know that in-game XMB works incredibly well, and trophy support is absolutely addictive"

Yup, it is getting closer to being as good as the 360. Keep it up Sony.

European PSN releases for July 3rd

Jul 3rd 2008 9:01AM (Joystiq Playstation)
Of cause no echochrome. They told us it would be here, so of cause it isn’t. Seems like you guys forgot how Sony works these days. Promise, break promise, promise again, silence…

But then again, I shouldn’t complain, cause we got the 2.40 update where they finally copied some good stuff from the 360 – oh, that doesn’t work either?
