get it at Amazon.com

it's at 60ish USD, and they send it from their warehouse in Miss, Ont so no duty.

Comes to a little less than 80 USD after shipping.

played burnout for 5hrs today..

overall pretty decent game
I'd give it a 8.5/10


fast moving pace game, downside is u are constantly wondering around in the big ass city looking for races, unlike need for speed carbon, u can still cruise around...and just use select option on the map and jump to the race instantly..or restart..but this race if u lose u have to drive all the way back

A lot of times i get lost......map is pretty big, a lot of tricky roads..

but definitely worth the money


Who is looking forward to Devil may CRy?

Im quite looking forward to Dynasty Warrior 6?

Only game I'm looking forward to right now is Street Fighter 4, whenever that comes out.

You guys know if PS3 has anymore heavenly sword types games coming out ? I love those walk around and beat em up style games. It would be nice if they came out with a new final fight, TMNT and maybe even a double dragon game.

As for shooters I like Raiden and R type style games. Hopefully lots of new games come out this year. Xbox360's game selection is killing us

DMC4 is coming February.

Rumor has it that the 360 version has better graphic though.

Yeah I haven't played any DMC games yet but my brother borrwed a few from his friend for the ps2 and they looked pretty good.

As for the graphics looking better on the 360, I've noticed that for a few games as well. Espcially nhl 08. That game is amazing on the 360. I bought it for ps3 and was really dissapointed.

only 720p and 30 fps for the ps3 while the xbox 360 is running at 1080p and 60 fps

I heard that game designers have a harder time making games for the ps3 for some strange reason.

*RUMOR* - not a fact.

Let's wait for the real game to come out before making judgments... Xbox fanboys love to trash PS3 games before they're even out and spread BS rumors.

ps3 looks like fucking piece of shit~~~

u look at the floor, fucking blurry, u look at 360's, u can see the fucking texture..

its kinda lame if developers are still using the same excuse tat they aint familiar with ps3's internal, and can always design a better graphic wise game base on 360~ HELLO!!! it has been fucking out on the market over a year now....jesus christ..

This is total horseshit. This proves nothing. Yes the ps3 is new, and it's hard to work on it because designs thing it's made from Alien parts. This picture shows nothing execpt 360 at still motion and the ps3 when it's blurry *could be some kind of DMC4 effect for that we know*. Trust me I know, look at the Dante, you can see motion lines in his hair and sword.

Do some homework before you post that weaksauce in here:

^^ BTW, at about halfway into the comparison stop at where the weird girl lands on the ground then they show a up close in front of the camera. You can see how much better the self shadowing is on the ps3. For sharpness you have to give that to the 360 though, not but a lot, but a little.

Sorry, but random picture links from random sites just don't do it these days anymore.

I'm waiting for OFFICIAL reviews from credible sites and sources, and that include my own 2 eyes.

and I'll take Mananetwork's opinion over yours anytime of the day. Why? He actually works in the industry, you don't.

Also, if you're familiar with Photoshop, you'd known that it'd be very easy to alter an image to make it less desirable, then call it "a picture from the ____ version of the game, proving that it sucks".

I'm not saying the PS3 ISN'T better or worse than the Xbox version because I haven't seen it at all, but to spread BS like "the PS3 version is worse" based on some BS comparison is just, well, pure BS.

Is NHL 08 worse on the PS3? Yes.
Is Assassin's Creed worse on the PS3? Yes.
Is Call of Duty 4 worse on the PS3? No.
Is Burnout Paradise worse on the PS3? No.
Is DMC 4 worse on the PS3? WE SHALL FIND OUT.

I fucking hate you fucking Xbox fanboys on all these fucking forums spreading fucking BS rumors.




ok I'm done.
