sure :) i thought of this quite a lot of times and my conclusion is to get a ps3. If i get a console it's sure that the new games that come out will be playable on it but if i stay on pc it's not sure if they'll do..and i might have to upgrade my system from time to time. what do you think?

I was a console gamer, and I never plan on going back.

PC all the way.

And new games will always be playable on PCs. Consoles will have to be upgraded every 2 years for $100+.

lol i think you mean pc's have to be upgraded every 2 years xD most consoles , ps3 even "psp" are still having new titles coming out for them..

well i mostly want a console for its multiplayer, sometimes for single player games too.i believe consoles are much better on this :)

You do realize that the reason PCs are upgraded is to run new games at higher settings, right? Consoles do get new games on them, and they have to run them at the lowest settings. The PS3 is 10+ year old hardware. Developers have to cripple the game to get it running on one.

If you kept your 5 year old gaming PC and did not upgrade it, it would still outperform a PS3 for today, tomorrow and eternity to come.

yeah i know. my point of view on this is like .. i don't want to run at the highest graphics , i just want a machine that can run new games and won't have lags.

For a couple of years till i get a job to save money for pc upgrades i'd like to have a console and play on it. Pc is a "beast" on gaming no worries ;)

Wait, you're worried about having to upgrade - with the new PS4 just around the corner...? Even if you don't care, wait until just before/after the launch of the PS4 and save yourself some money.

I am not sure is PS3 now is good decision, all developers are going to migrate to PS4 and amount of games published will have a huge drop...

Oh, please stay at a PC, buy a gamepad or something like that and be Happy... You'll pay around 800 Bucks, have a better graphic and much more features, which will be also much more comfortable for your studies ;)

i second this. PS4 will be out by the end of the year, but i will recommend some games whatever you choose. first of would be the PlayStation exclusives, more specifically any of the collections ( god of War, Ratchet & CLank, Jak & Dexter, Infamous(one of my personal favorites), sly cooper, and killzone) also i HIGHLY recommend the littlebigplanet series its a fun four player platformer with over 7 million user created levels and there is a karting game but for that i would recommend mod nation racers intstead. as for fighting i also recommend PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale its the playstation version of nintendos super smash bros and is lots of fun. also be sure to check out dc universe online since its free on the ps3 as well plus there is Dust 514 which will be free as well.

LBP and LBP2, I am 19 and I adore LBP. I got it with my PS3 and I was like "no way this is gonna suck" but upon playing it I was pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately my WIFI/Bluetooth module died from a lightning strike.
I loooove creating stuff. Gosh have to repair my PS3 just for LBP and Infamous

I'd recommend you just save up for the PS4, you have plenty of time. Unless you are only interested in PS3 titles, then by all means go ahead and get the PS3. Down the road you may regret not saving up for the PS4 though. Like if something is announced/released for the PS4 that you really want to play.

Its acctually not a bad idea. You can get cheap ps 3 games now and after some years when hes through with the games he wants on the ps 3 price of ps 4 will be lower and already some good games will be cheaper :) And probably the lounch bugs of the console will be fixed by that time

No idea if you want console exclusives AND ps3 exclusives or ps3 exclusives.

Uncharted Series, Infamous series(is good I hear.), God of War series collection thing, MGS collection thing(coming our later this year.), Nier(good story meh gameplay), Ratchet and Clank series, and Demon's souls if you are up for a challenge.

Just on the of my head.

The Souls series should be played on the PS3.

-Most Players
-No hackers
-Was made for that system

Though Dark Souls 2 may change this, seeing as (From what I hear.) The PC one will be a lot better and have 60 FPS unlike consoles.

Is buying a PS3 just before the PS4 comes out the best thing? I still feel like the 360 I bought might not have been the best thing to do given that the next Xbox and a rumoured low cost 360 are around the corner.

11 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Sure it is. The next gen consoles are not going to be able to play the current console games, so buying a PS3 or an Xbox 360 isn't a bad idea, if you can get a good offer. Sure you might be able to get it cheaper when the next consoles get out, but that won't be until the end of the year around Christmas, and that is a long time to wait if you want to play games right now.

Sorry but the PS4 will be able to play older titles but in a stream based way:

They haven't given any official information as to when we can expect the current games to be "on the cloud" like that or even what games will be supported when they do start porting older games - it's not that simple to port something and make it compatible with newer hardware and software. Add the time porting takes with the time they have to spend testing a game to make sure there aren't any bugs (and the time they will have to spend fixing mistakes) and the date we will see some personal favourites amongst the selection on their cloud service will take time.

Plus it is more than likely that the games on the cloud will be more expensive when they do get out, than what the market price for a disc version currently is set to.

So sure. We will be able to play older games on the PS4 - eventually- but in regards to OPs situation, waiting for a PS4 when he could spend at least 6-8 months depending on where he live enjoying a PS3 and the current game market is a tad ridiculous.

Little Big Planet 2, Motorstorm Apocalypse and inFamous 2 is getting pulled off soon too - at least I think I read that somewhere on the PS Blog, but I can't remember where or find it. But it would make sense seeing how these games have been a part of the IGC for a long time.

I think I read it in one of the comments for one of the blog posts and I'm not even sure it was a PS+ content blog. But as far as I recall they would get pulled off in June or July. No news about what they will be replaced with though.

The difference in games is mostly due to the rights being different from country to country I guess. But NA has gotten (at least in my opinion) some great games too. I know you got some games I would have loved to play like Soul Calibur, Demon's Souls, Disgea 3 and Spec Ops, just to name a few of the more recent ones.

Well, NA gets the most amazing sales and it gets way better prices on most games. So I guess it balances out.

To actually answer the OP unlike all these other people who are just saying to do something else, ill give you some ps3 only games so that these guys cant just say "go play it on pc"

The Last of Us is coming out in June I believe, and that will be extremely good.
The God of War series is probably the best series ever made, definitely get God of War 1-3 if you haven't already.
If you are into shooters and are sick of CoD, Killzone 2 or 3 are pretty solid shooters.
