Buying a ps3 today..

Is it common for console gamers to refer to inanimate objects as "stupid", which is a level of intelligence?

Back when I played games on consoles, those who played generally exhibited a level of intelligence higher than what would be required to use proper English.

Just an FYI. ;)

im an xboxer myself, but as others have said, cod: mw and mw2 are excellent on both platforms. cod 5 wasn't so great, but nazi zombies mode was really fun for 2 player. the way i see it, little big planet is a must have for anyone with a ps3, as it is one of the more original games ever created. can't help ya out on racing, i'm sold out to forza for life, lol, and thats microsoft exclusive.
 
I'm looking for something that I can play with my girlfriend.

You all can say whatever you want but I like playing Little Big Planet with my girlfriend, its actually pretty addictive.

And I'll second Modern Warfare 2 and Bad Company 2. Both are great games and to be honest I like Modern Warfare 2 better on PS 3.

D*** you, Kurt! How stupid of me. ;)
 
I'm in the same boat actually. I have a PS3, but no games for it. I've been playing most of my stuff on xbox.

I'm looking for something that I can play with my girlfriend.
beer pong? :devil:

I nuke almost every game on the ps3 when i play at my friends house.
Call of duty online is great!!!
depends if you like getting screamed at by high pitched kids when you kill them over and over again...

Okay definitely going to look into modern warfare, seems to the be the most mentioned here so I take that as a pretty good sign. Little big planet, I saw that in the store and it caught my eye so that's another I'll definitely be getting even if I'm the only one that plays it. Thanks!

That's only if you have the headset and play live right? I'm a really sore loser so I'm not sure if playing live is something I should try until I get good at some of those games LOL



Has anyone tried Wolfenstein for ps3? I played the computer game way way WAY back in the day (loved it lol) and I also tried the demo out on ps3 and I liked what little I got to play but I'd still like to know if the entire game is worth it. Thanks!
 
at least you dont hear it while your playing.


No, but they certainly have no problem accidentally hitting the reset button when they start getting spanked.... If only they took school as serious as they do video games.
