Hey, ive got one of these for sale, its 100% brand new with the sports pack (5 games).
It was 1 of the last ones an extremely large retailer was getting before xmas (there was someone who heard a rumor that we were getting wii's and waited for 8 hours to get one because he didnt wanna dissapoint his son :o ), I was gonna list it in the forsale section but that says for only omega bits so didnt wanna post it in the wrong suggestion. It will be going on ebay at the weekend but if anyone would like to make me an offer on it before i list it you are more than welcome too via PM. there is a serious shortage of these consoles with even nintendo saying they cant keep up with the demand! its just fortunate for someone that im a playstation man! :y
any questions let me know.

How good do you think the PS3 is compared to the PS2 :-? :-?

Wiiiiiiiiiiiiiis are common in Europe only short in the UK
They are not very powerful and only the Nintendo games are worth getting.
It says a lot that the PS2 gets a lot more usage still

the graphics are noticably better, especially on car games, football games and in particular Resistance Fall Of Man shooting game, i stood in front of a building with a large window and shot at the glass, and the window was breaking in the right places where i shot it, not like older games where the whole lot broke in the same way no matter where abouts you shot it... although i got bored of dying all the time! And i like the whole "menu" style it has to it aswell, i think i need a better TV though now! I do actually think its overpriced, but I bought it because at the time I really wanted it, there's also the factor of it having it's reverse capability with PS2 games meaning i could keep hold of most of the ps2 games i had, it came with 2 games and a DVD (casino royale in this case) and also the fact that it has 60gb storage as opposed to a little 8mb storage card slotted in the front!, not to mention WIRELESS controller!! I've no regrets about shelling £350 for it anyway!
I'd had my ps2 about 5 years and still managed to sell it for only £40 less than i paid for it!
Nintendo Wiiiiiiiiiii's do lack power, and the graphics (i've been told) are nothing too special, but i think people seem to really like the way they're more involved when playing it instead of sat on the couch pressing buttons, my brother said he had a right laugh playing on one somewhere anyway!

We bought a Wii last Christmas and we had such a laugh with friends coming over.It is a real fun console the graphics aren't up to much but it's the fun factor that attracts buyers to this little machine :)
We have had consoles for years and my son is really into gaming too.He got a 360 last Christmas and joined Xbox Live for his birthday which he loves.
A few months after Christmas we noticed that we weren't really playing on the Wii anymore so we decided to sell it on Ebay and we went to Blackpool for a weekend with the proceeds ;)
We then bought a 60GB Playstation 3 and bought and sold quite a few of the games. At the moment the latest one we have is Call of Duty 4 I don't play it ..my son does he is only 12 but he is very good.
I have pre-ordered Drakes Fortune for myself which is released 7/12/07 and my hubby is wating for Resident Evil.
He loved these games on the PS1 and 2 .
I don't think any of the PS3 games have really shown the potential of the console give it a couple of years and it should come into it's own.

Thanks for the run down, I think its a little bit to expensive for me, as i don´t really play that much ;)

Sold my second hand one (5 months old) on ebay last week, extra controller, 5 games.
Sold for an amazing £410, plus £15.00 pp.
Look on there now and second hand ones are going for crazy money.
I now have the other to sell so i will be placing on ebay at the end of the week, there is only 1 game with this one.
:y :y :y :y

i don't object to someone making money out of a shortage, but this is stupid, on ebay they are fetching silly money for the basic package.
I have a figure in my head an won't go above it, lets just say that the ones on Amazon are above that price ;)

If you only want a games console then the PS3 is expensive
If you break it down and compare to an X-box 360 though it is quite cheap
The PS£ is a blueray player which will cost you over £300 pounds onit's own!,It also has an internet browser built in(bit slow though)
built in wireless,video/music streaming from your pc to your tv,and a 60 gb storage capability.
the 360 will cost 100 pound less to buy but wireless adapter is £60 and HD DVD player another£130
If you play online 360 costs £40 per year,PS3 is free but not as good
graphics on both are HD with the PS3's slightly better (you need a HD 1080 tv to get the best out of either)
PS3 comes as a60 or 40 GB version (only 60 gb one is backward compatable with PS2 games)
The Wii is a lot of fun but graphics are not in the same league.
I have all three and use all of them for different things so am totally un-biased
-
i dont think all PS3 consoles are wireless compatible though, i think the wireless cost even more!

I think you are right only 60 gb version is wireless, which makes the 40gb one really uneconomical at only £50 cheaper!!!
-
but mine's the 60gb
have i stupidly obviously got the wireless one?? meaning wireless internet connection???
if so, how do i get it working?!! i had the browser on once when i first bought it and it just said "page cannot be displayed" as i expected it to

Goto Menu/settings/network settings/internet connection and enable it a green light comes on to the right hand side,next to the hdd light(by your 4 usb ports)
did you know you can plug in a keyboard, (or use a bluetooth one) and printers and most bluetooth phone headsets can be used when online gaming
-
I have a Wii at the moment i am looking after it for a mate for acouple of months ::) ::)
i use it with a projector that fills the full wall it is good fun playing with mates but i would not pay the money people are wanting for them as i dont use it enough. i might get one when all the hype dies down and the prices drop, i think there will be loads for sale acouple of months after xmas as people get bored of them really quick
-
Yes I agree
the controller is a novelty at first then gets a bit boring
I like big brain academy and wii play
I like the idea of a projector,I play on a 42" plasma which is good but playing golf on a whole wall :P :P
-
perks of the job so called old projectors going to get binned nothing wrong with them needed a little LCD clean on the blue lcd and that was it both have 2 bulbs with 1,500 hours left on them, but you can pick up projectors really cheap on ebay
-
The only problem is I cannot bring myself to buy old technology so will need a HD compatable one , seen a couple for around £500 :o
