Official PlayStation 3 Thread

That's a pretty great initial lineup of PS1 titles. I didn't think they would be making them available in large batches like this. I figured they'd go more toward the XBLA route, with like one title a week, but I'm glad they're not. I just hope they continue to crank them out at that pace, ala at least 10-20 titles a month.

So I wonder if were going to see classic exclusives now, meaning since SotN is on XLA, then it wont be on VC or PS3's download service

I know there's no reason a Live Arcade game needs to stay XBLA exclusive. Whether a PS3 download game will stay on PS3 only is something Sony hasn't said yet.

Did anyone mention that Toys R Us is taking preorders this Sunday? If not, they're. If you didn't know, it's too late. There's already a line at every fucking Toys R Us in fucking Southern California. So I'm guessing it's just as bad everywhere else.

I leave to Toys "R" Us in about an hour. A group of us will be doing some camping tonight.

The Toys R Us around my area (Orange County) are only getting around 7 systems per store, so good luck to everyone trying to get one.

Someone let me know if that's not the back of a PS3 DPad secured such that it can move more easily in one direction than another.

DS2 d-pads are secured with the same three-pronged piece of plastic afaik, its been awhile since I cracked mine open and I dare not try it again since the screwholes are stripped bare of threadding

ScrewAttack: What is it about the PS3 that’s got you all excited?
Clueless hick: Uh, Blu-Ray.
ScrewAttack: What’s Blu-Ray?
Clueless hick: Uh, I have no idea.


Priceless.

And yet, that's what I run into every day at work.
