Oh... and I like being 14 years old... or at least acting like it anyway.
It was great, I liked the whole "you're free but still attached to objects around, and it actually works" thing. Quite impressive. As for the graphical part, it was nice and smooth and all but really messy. Refering to shadows and a generally dirty (in an non-intended way I would assume). Gears of War managed it, but if it's true that it's as early build as you said I hope they fix it for the final realease. The game surely has potential!

Marty_McFly-3DT: Hey,Marty.Well,I found someone who sells PS3's over at eBay and his feedback is very positive. Here's the link http://global.ebay.com/gbh/viItem?ItemId=130140014138 . The price isn't the lowest one of course,but it's fine with me.Though,it says there that these PS3 are the Hong Kong version consoles and I was wondering if it's OK? Is there a difference between Japanese and US versions? I'm getting confused with all those European,American,Japanese PS3's.Always thought there was just one version of the console...
Anyways,I think I'll make an account and contact that guy to find out a bit more of the delivery services and stuff like that.I might also want to make an account for PayPal service,but I still can't figure out how this system works

And thanks for the offer there,I'll keep it in mind just in case

Halo, never heard of it. Is it some kind of Angle/God game? I'll have to find time to look it up, which is hard to do when you own a PS3.

Aleks: All video game systems ever since the old 8-bit systems had different versions in different parts of the world. The main thing you would need to know is if it's compatible with your power outlets in your country. Other than that just make sure you get the proper region coded games, which it says are the UK region coded games.

BiG ToE: Halo is a FPS game. It has nothing to do with Angels and Demons... it's more like Aliens and Humans. The main character is named the Master Chef... Uhh.. I mean Master Chief. You can get it for the PC, and it's not a bad game... but it's pretty standard in the FPS genre.

the only thing why i chose ps3 rather than x360, online playing is free! plus, wireless make it awesome, no need to buy any other things to make it work, or pre-paid cards

about pcs, i actually own an alienware, love fps games, like doom, prey and all that kind of stuff, but games like graw 2, its starting to run low, not as those firsts days when i got my laptop, playing at maximum settings...as marty said, theres nothing than knowing that the game u bought, will work in ur console...

Actually, you can use your PS3 to search google for '360'.

I tried, everything else on the internet works fine from my PS3.. but when I search for '360' I always seem to get: Error 404: Page not found.

I think all this 360 talk is just a myth!

Interesting..... You should install Linux on your PS3, then use the free, included paint software to sketch what you think this mythical 360 would look like.

Okay,It looks like no matter where I'm gonna buy/order a PS3,it will cost me around 1000$... The shop I ordered Gears of War from offers the console for exactly 1000$ but with two games included (Resistance and Motostorm).So if I could only find a decent HD monitor now for something around 500$,I'd buy the PS3 :\ Can't believe I'm gonna spend 1500$ just to play some games,though
