Looking into buying a PS3 basically just for the Blu Ray player. but I do have one question, will it play burned DVD/CD's? Or do you have to chip it like the PS2? I choose the Ps3 over a standard player just because I do like to play Rockband and GH on occasion. But really, if it won't play burned items, it's not worth it to me.

But why you would get a PS3 to play crappy quality DVD's I don't understand...

Soooo...I just bought a PS3 yesterday since, now that the format war is over, I thought I should get a Blu-Ray player.
...seriously, the PS3 exclusive games suck balls...and it doesn't look like it'll get any better until GT5 and MGS4.

Heavenly Sword is an exercise in button mashing. Seriously, I just randomly hacked at the controller and won except for those super annoying missions where you have to somehow guide arrows or cannonballs with the SixAxis.
Drake's Fortune...I sort of saw parts of the game when I was at my buddy's house and it looked pretty gay. Like Tomb Raider but...worse.

Uncharted is good, especially with the combat, system, i actually like the fact that you really have to take cover when ur being shot at.. lol
but other than that, it really depends of how u can justify how much u will pay for the game, i found it really short when i bought it new when it came out
if you can find it used for $30 to $40, then its good, but otherwise, paying full price wont justify the length of the game..

if that wasn't clear, I think he means March 2009. Next march, not this march.

Fighting games are tough to create a good online environment, especially when the hitting mechanism is based on a frame by frame analysis, such as VF.
I will have to wait and see, too little is known right now.
On the other hand, KZ2 looks GREAT, now if only they have improved that crappy AI in KZ1.
