Persuade me...

[porcupineprince]

Just been offered a PS3 off of a mate for £150.

I already own a 360, so i dont NEED the PS3, however, i'm considering it for when GT5 is finally released and for the blu-ray.

Any other reasons why i should get one?

Cheers,

Matt

P.S. The reason 'your 360 will break' is not valid!

Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted 1 & 2 a load more exclusives on the way. It make sense to be a bi-curious gamer.

If you don't take it, tell me where he lives and i'll come and give him cash. Have been toying with the idea too now and if i ever get the opportunity to get one cheaper, i'll do it.

GO ON!!

always better to have the best of both worlds

I do and would not get rid of the PS3, even though I don't use it much.

Gran Turismo?

What other reason do you need?

Ooh, I don't know, let's see, maybe a game that is actually available?

To the OP - get it, for 150 it's a no brainer. Have you seen how shiny they are? Mmmmmmm shiny.

It is; but it's still a good game.

GT5 is probably still a year away at least, by then a brand new PS3 will probably be around £150.

It's going to be closer that a year. I'd bet christmas this year! will prob be announced at the Tokyo Game Show.

This bet, how much are we talking?

I could make a packet here.

That it won't be out this year? I reckon it will.

Preview from OPM...

Kaz said he could release it whenever.

GT5
Motorstorm
More memory
More reliable than a 360
If you have it on show with a hd tv stand it is more pleasant to look at (not that a console needs to look good)
Free online
Blu ray is amazing!
The graphics are a bit better

I think a PS3 for a £150 is pretty good value, you WILL get your moneys worth of gaming.
Hope this helps!

What Kaz says and what Kaz does are two very different things, I'm still reckoning on a March release date for it.

Plus we're talking about a UK release here, even if it appears before Christmas in Japan, I think you're looking at March-May for the UK release.

The thing is, if it is not released before/at the same time as Forza 3(which is set to be released October 27th)

It's game over for GT5 people are already fed up waiting, I am! and to be honest I don't think sony are stupid enough to miss the Christmas rush.

The Game is ready to be released whenever they want.

Nope.

Europe is GT5's biggest market.
