The Old PlayStation Thread | *NEW THREAD IS UP*

PS3 was too expensive back when it dropped. Forced a 16yr old to spend his hard earned money on a 360. I'm just happy to be back to the Playstation family.

 

[blackboyfly]

That had alot to do with the reason so many people switched to Xbox, along with the 360 being out a year earlier. I almost bought a 360 first. But I found a factory sealed still unopened 60 GB launch console with 4 launch games for 585 dollars on Ebay don't ask me how.

I'm in the same boat I was like 13 when they dropped I wanted a ps3 so bad but my mom bought my brother the 360 instead of gettting the ps3. I stuck with the 360 when I got my own because they had party chat glad to be going back to PS.

Lol bro why did you hit the caps lock after the first sentence?

Your right tho, but X1 has so much problems i doubt they release before it, They already have a day 1 patch and they have more issues to correct

I graduated college when PS3 came out. Ended up buying one, a new tv, and a computer for just over $3000 to celebrate being done with school.

Yea, you should be able to get any game you want the 15th. My local mom n pop told me they will have ps4 games as early as the 11th of november. Weird but w/e, might just get the games i want a few days earlier. They didn't say anything regarding the controllers, though. GS did tell me they would be limited so that may be why. BTW, will the Wave Blue & Magma Red controllers be available on launch?

 

[bamez]

mum and pop shops sell these consoles early? or are they even getting any at all?

No chance. It's not like kix, fam

It was that blu-ray drive but PS3 helped them win that format war. I dunno if it's worth it since they lost a lot but I'm glad they pensioned off Kutaragi and came to their senses.
We're reaping the rewards now.


Official PS4 console bundles are on the way, Sony confirms


View media item 558816

A PS4 console bundle featuring Killzone Shadow Fall, a second Dual Shock 4 controller and the PlayStation Camera has been spotted on Amazon France.

The bundle is priced EUR 499,99, which equates to around £430.

This could be the first of several bundles Sony has planned, the platform holder has told VideoGamer.com.

"We're tremendously happy with our overall value proposition, whether that be the entry price point of the machine [or] the detailed bundles and combinations that we will put on shelf at retail which we haven't fleshed out in detail as yet," Sony Computer Entertainment UK chief Fergal Gara told VideoGamer.com during Gamescom.

This is either to counter MS because this bundle is the same price as the Xbone bundling fifa or Amazon price matching another retailer but it just shows you how much value you get with the PS4.
It might be europe only but you guys already have the unofficial bundles anyway.


They must be mad though if they think I'll cancel my pre order and then risk not getting it at launch

 

[bamez]

damn, that bundle sounds nice.  Saves around $80 assuming it'd be $499.

 

[just reason]

does anybody know anything about the psn id change??

for instance, on 360 when I got into a mlg team we changed our live names($10 charge) but was able to keep all achievements, camos and stuff.. can you do it on the ps4..

 

[iYen]

You can get that killzone bundle at walmart.com

It's $517+tax/shipping

 

[bamez]

^^ Edit: Walmart bundle doesn't include BOTH DS4 and Playstation camera..

All said buyer would need to do it add the extra ds4 or the camera.

Which isn't a big deal.

The bundles are pretty much the same in terms of cost(+ extra accessory) and content.

Since I hardly take out time to play anymore. I'll probably sell my reserved ps4, since I'm pretty sure GTAV will keep me busy after the holiday rush of PS4's is over.
