Thread: PSN Issues

Personally if I wanted to talk to my friends that weren't in game with me, or even if they were in game, I would get on ventrillo to talk to them. Its free and easy.

Really? When did this happen? I thought you still had that. What are you gaming on now?

Free is good! Free always fits in the budget. As for Netflix, i use the ROKU box which is $45 (including shipping), reconditioned on Ebay from the ROKU company. Don't need Xbox Live to stream Netflix movies with ROKU.

What did you like so much about PSN or even your ps3? Do you really think it was that much better than an Xbox 360? Like if someone were trying to decide between playstation and xbox, which one do you think they should go for. Assuming money wasn't an actual factor.

Yeah I sold it, I stated that before. I am gaming on my superultragiga PC

Well, if money isn't factor, but NASA's PC and play games. JK, I would suggest PS3 for you. I liked it really much. I played many great games on it, and compared to 360, graphics is better, PSN is free compared to Live. Also if money is a problem, wait for a month and prices will go down i am sure.

OK! Thank you! I do very much appreciate your opinion on this. I read the other post, like after the fact where you were talking about gaming on steam and felt stupid for bringing up the ps3. Always meant to ask what you thought of the system.

Money is not the biggest factor for me in choosing a game system. Though I do appreciate the idea about waiting a bit to purchase. Christmas is coming up and there are sure to be game package deals to be had. Also, a game system is a once in a while purchase, so it should last a good many years. So i can average the cost over that time and get plenty of use. Will take your suggestion for ps3 seriously when purchase time comes around.

Since we're talking about it anyway, how is the game selection for ps3? I like shooter and horror survival and racing and things like that. Not really into the Wii style family games cause i could get my fill of those on PC or flash, so no thanks!

Must play: Gran Turismo 5, FIFA 11, GTA IV, Silent Hill.....

Dardaigh- I think there is a pretty good selection for games like that on the PS3, I think you would like their game selection.
