My journey with the PS3 ups and downs

So for Christmas I got a PS3! I got 4 games with it(Heavy Rain, Metal Gear Solid 4, Little Big Planet, and Uncharted) So far everything is going good. I watched a ton of movies made a PSN and what not. But what pisses me off the most are the updates for games. Right now I wanted to play Heavy Rain for the first time and I have to sit for 183 minutes waiting for the update. Is that why PS3's memory is so big? To store all these updates? What's the point of installing every game ever made. It just wastes so much time and I decided to write this story because I have nothing better to do while Heavy Rain is updating. I've already taken a shit and made a meal. So what do you guys think of the PS3? I was actually blown away on how good it can look when set up right. They have good exclusives, and its just a nice sleek console and a change from my xbox. The only con for me right now I guess is the updates. :(

What the hell is this?

You should have been reading the stories about the PS3 here before you opened the box. The updates always kill it for me and a lot of other people.

I'm happy with my ps3, but yes, the only problem I have (which is the biggest) is the updates when you first put a game in.


DUDE, for some reason even though KOF 12 had barely anything in the fuckin game, the update took like 2 hours.

lol @shenwoo heard.

Writing a story was the best thing you could do.

My advice to you, is to trade in all of those games and get Uncharted 2. If you have any extra money, try Infamous. I didn't like that game, but a bunch of my nub buddies do.

Uncharted 2 = best game on the system.

Thanks for the story.

The Controller was garbage, they are on revision 3 and it the 6 axis is still horrible. Have you ever looked this up online? How many skus did they have? usb ports, backwards compatible, wifi, flash card reads and even a super audio cd support. Reading through all that shit is a buzz kill(The weed isnt cheap enough to waste on this shit). The best part is these arrogant dick cheeses at sony. Sony’s Ken Kutaragi said the $600 price tag was “probably too cheap” adding that “people will, without question, purchase it”. Now the price is half of that now(no surprise there since noone was going to pay 600 for this pos). Oh an one more great idea, lets make it so hard to develope on that noone wants to make games for it. Valve’s Gabe Newell called the PS3 a “total disaster”. Midway Games’ Shaun Himmerick said it was a “huge pain in the ass”, and even Sony’s own Kaz “Riiidge Raaacer” Hirai said it was “hard to program for”. Looking at the NPD console attach ratio (i.e. how many games per console are sold), the PS3 is severely lacking behind, having only 4.6 games sold per system, where as the Xbox 360 has 7.5 games sold per system. Asshats! It’s been common knowledge that when games are released on several systems, the PS3 version is usually the inferior one. Not only are they inferior, they’re usually released later than the Xbox 360 counterparts. Madden 11 for instance, ran at 30 fps as opposed to 60 fps on the Xbox 360. Another example, Lost Planet, was not only released almost a year later on the PS3, but ran at a very sluggish frame rate and was missing a lot of the eye candy. So, to paraphrase they have done everything wrong and relied strictly on brand recognition and the stupidity of people. This system is in every way inferior to the 360, and now that sony lost all the exclusive licensing they had its just another sega cd on the video game super highway. Sony remove head from ass then deliver a product that ppl want to play and develope for.
