So, finally bought my precious little PS3...two quick questions:
1 (too lazy to google): Is there a set release date for MGS4 in Q2-2008, or is it still just "Q2 2008"?
2. Any games out yet which are worth buying?
1. No not at the moment. There is a 2nd Qtr release but no solid date.
2.Well, that would be a matter of personal opinion. I personally enjoy Tekken 5, Ratchet and Clank Future, and Madden on mine. Im currently waiting on BurnOut Paradise.

You know what really pisses me off? Itīs that most of my favourite games need like 4 different consoles so you could actually fully enjoy them.
For example: You want to know the whole plot of Resident Evil? Then you propably own PS1, PS2, GameCube, Wii,PS3/Xbox360 and maybe even DS or Dreamcast.
Another one, Kingdom Hearts. Letīs see, you need a: PS2, Gameboy Advance, PSP, PS3.
Metal Gear Solid: NES, PS1/Gamecube, PS2, PS3, and PSP.
And finally, God of War. PS2,PSP and PS3. Iīm gonna be in tears when GoW 3 comes out, and I wont be able to play it, cause I dont own a expensive PS3.
To hell with them, those greedy pigs like Capcom and Sony make me sick.[/rant]

Dude, you rant capcom and sony because companies in general makes their games on the current consolls....
You also miss the fact that PS2 and ps3 has backwards compadibility.
Stop ranting like that just because you cant afford a ps3!
That there my friend is just whining.
And Nes/snes can be played on emulators, PSP if you cant afford it thats your problem, mgs remake on gamecube: either play it at a friends house that has it, or buy it+ Wii or a used gamecube.
If you get pissed up because you cant "fully enjoy" all your favorites games, thats your problem.
Your whole rant was the weakest i have ever read....

Slackbeard: Get Uncharted and Ratchet and Clank. Both are amazing games. They were easily two of my top 3 games for '07.

I agree with Ratchet and Clank. an amazing game if you are into platforming games. if you dont have this game, get Call of Duty 4. its an FPS thats very solid. realistic, fast paced, and hectic gameplay.

Finished Uncharted and eyeing Ratchet. I've got a dual shock 3. Does anyone know if Ratchet has been updated to support it like Uncharted?

Ratchet rumbles.
@Slackbeard: Unreal Tournament III is sweet as far as online shooters go, GT5: Prologue is a badass game too.
I've been eyeing Folklore myself. Was looking @ Orange Box also, but between UTIII, CoD4 and Warhawk, I'm about shootered-out.
If you have broadband, Ratchet, Folklore, and crap all have demos on PSN you can check out first.

I need to buy that Folklore game. Love the demo.

I gotta be honest here, I'm not really taken aback with that one.
Doesnt seem to be anything special, at least, for me anyway.
The one that I've just discovered and am really looking forward too is Prototype. ![]()
The Street Fighter 4 trailer has got me pumped as well. ![]()

Look forward to Frontline: Fuel of War while I'm maxing out my COD4.

But I meant, if youīve played the games since the beginning, youīve had to buy all these. And making the game on the latest platform isnīt so bad, but what they do with games like Kingdom Hearts is unforgivable. They just make a sequal to a random handheld console and screw any fans who dont own such a device. Since they wont release Final Mix+ in Europe, itīs fucked up.

Offline
Thanks for the advice, I ended up getting Uncharted and it's not bad at all. I also asked about MGS4 at the local store, and they told me that they were expecting the game for the 14th of March apparently...

I understand what you mean, and I have had to buy other consoles to continue playing my favorite series. I had to get a PSP so I can continue playing MGS Portable OPS, and the soon coming Castlevania. I know there is a Kingdom Hearts coming here to, but I also know of the new one on DS, luckily for me I am at a point where I can afford getting all these consoles, so I should be fine. I remember I had bought a Xbox way back when for Mortal Kombat Deception because it didnt come out on gamecube, and I wasnt too keen on the PS2 when it came out so I figured it would be best on a XBox.
@ Slackbeard, the final release date of MGS4 in March is for JPN so other countries would get it hopefully sometime this summer.

Probably because im a diehard fantasy/relegion/ancient stuff nut
and norse mythology is one of my favorites
. Prototype looks like a must-have, street fighter 4 just seems like a pimped SF2 Turbo deluxe EX edition, unless they can bring in some major game inovations im not to keen on that one and just keep playing my Sf2 on my snes from time to time
I might rent it tho.

Which is why every trailer has said "Simultaneous Worldwide Release."
Right?

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Well Q2 isnt that far then.
January 10, 2008 - One of the biggest questions for PS3 action fans has been when Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots will finally come out. With the title pushed late last year to Q2 2008, Snake fans weren't sure if the game would actually come out at that time, or if it would suffer a further delay. Well, according to Shack News, on the latest Kojima Productions Report podcast, Assistant Producer Ryan Payton announced that the game is in its "last push." He further confirmed that the game is fully playable and is currently about to go through extensive bug testing.
"Mr. Kojima of all people is really committed to [the date] because he really hates to disappoint people, and I know he is embarrassed by what happened with the 2007 slip into 2008," said Payton. Some features may be added, but "for the majority of the team, this is the end."
This bodes well for the title coming out during the projected Q2 2008 window by Konami of Japan, and Payton mentioned within the podcast that a near-simultaneous release is planned for the game, with most territories receiving the game within days of each other. Upcoming details on the release date, contents of the game, and other details were not available. Similarly, answering questions about MGS4 going to the Xbox 360 weren't answered in the podcast, although Payton alluded to an "emergence day" similar to that of Gears of War.
We tried to contact Konami of America for comment, but were unable to receive a statement from them at the time this piece was published. Rest assured, though, that we'll have any additional information as soon as it becomes available.

Realy, if it is such a problem for you, it would be worth buying it. But if you dont whant to buy/CAN buy the other systems, than too bad. Releasing miner spin-ofs, or sequals on different consolls just happens. live with it. simple as that. Think your whole problem is still quite silly....
If you can afford other consols, you can, if not, you cant, and have to settle with reading stuff on wiki or somewhere.

I'm a victim to this/a similar problem as well - I never had a PS2 and now that I've got a PS3 I'm rather miffed that they dropped the backwards compatibility. I've missed out on such games as God of War and Kingdom Hearts.
Although one solution that I've yet to try, is simply to install a PS2 emulator on my computer. True, PS2s are cheap as chips now days, but it's another console and another powerpoint and more cables and more mess and more money on games and la dida dida...

To be honest, I've never played any of the street fighters (been more of a tekken person) other that the occasional StreetFighter vs X-Men at the arcade. So I've got much to look forward to.
Although I gotta say I'm much more excited about prototype.
