Hello everybody, how'd you going? well it looks like my last blog was modded 
, sorry I didn't have the change to reply on your comments, anyway, I'd have question...
Most of you know I've been saving to buy a PS3, so with the lastest price cut I'm just closer to get it, I've saved around US$350 so far, but it's still not enough, you'll see in my country the PS3 slim is around US$450 (fat PS3 around $750-before-, X360 Elite $640 - Arcade $300, Wii $400, PSP3000 $270 and DS$200), so yeah they're expensive in here
, so I hope no expense gets in my way again or else...
***SPOILER***
Anyway I think in a few months I'll buy it
. However, I've seen something interesting, the PS3 Uncharted Bundle is around $500 (just $50 more), it has a 160HD and Dualshock 3, so when the time comes should I go for it, or should I go for the PS3 Slim and buy another game?, I mean, I don't care about BC (I play my PS2 games on my PC now) or the Unix feature (once again, I have a PC for it), if you think I should go for the Slim, then what game should a buy, I need a game that give me a lot of hours of play until my next buy.
FAQ (maybe):
Q: If you call yourself a PC gamer, why don't you upgrade your PC with that money?
A: Well, the current video cards are compatible with DX10, but not with DX11 (windows 7), I don't want to buy a DX10 video card, and then some months after nVidia and ATI release a DX11 video card, and I regret not waiting some more time...
Q: Why don't you buy a X360?
A: I've though about it, really, but the problem is MS doesn't customer support in here, so If the X360 brokes, I'll have to send it to US myself, and that may take a lot of time (AND money), plus as a PC gamer I don't like hardware with issues, so I'll wait until the RROD has a lower percentage
.
Q: Why don't you buy a Wii/DS?
A: eh....ahh, well..... LOOK a fly !!
Q: What about a PSP?
A: I'm not much into portable consoles, I mean I don't even like my laptop, but I may consider buying it after I buy the PS3 due some games I want to play on it

The uncharted bundle is pretty cool....you can't go wrong with that.

The Uncharted Bundle is better..

I saved for almost three years to get my PS3 and am glad I did - it is awesome

Uncharted bundle.

I really like Uncharted and can't wait for its release but if you want a game that'll keep you playing for a long time, buy the GOTY Edition of Fallout 3 which, coincidentally, is out the same day as Uncharted 2. You'd have a great game with all it's patches Uncharted 2's campaign will probably be short like Uncharted, even shorter maybe because of the heavenly graphics they included this time, good thing is that in Uncharted, getting Trophies was a thrill not something you had to bother to do, they were actually fun and time consuming, so Uncharted 2 may actually be long because of good trophies anyway

I have an Elite and I must say it's very reliable compared to my brother Xbox 360 20gb
The only thing that pisses me off about mine is how the NXE dashboard is so damn slow when I'm connected to XBL.
And we have ordered the PS3 Slim
If you want you could check the very good comparison chart on Kotaku (if that helps..)

Other than L2 and R2 feeling like marshmallows on the sixaxis....

Ow man hope u will get PS3 faster, man i am sure u will have tons and tons fun with it when u get it.
Posted Aug 30, 2009 9:39 am PT
I got the Uncharted Bundle its a great bundle and i would get it instead but u gotta get it fast because once the Slim comes out all the fat PS3's will be discontinued that means good buy 160GB PS3
Posted Aug 30, 2009 11:17 am PT

Posted Aug 30, 2009 12:01 pm PT
i don't have a PS3 but I think I'm gonna go for the Uncharted bundle if I were you . As for PC... how do you run PS2 games in it? What emulator? I want to play the games I play back in the phils here! xD

Get the uncharted bundle. You get a little bigger HDD and a game. Good buy.
Could you import a cheaper US one? What country do you live in?

@AbyssD: Yeah, I hope that too, this is the second time I save money for it
@NuKkU: Ok, I'll try to save the money faster so I can get it, can't wait to start playing

@Sonic3456: ok, thanks I'll think about it
@megatonB: thanks, I'll keep it in mind, and yeah I use an emulator, however you need a powerfull PC for it, the emulator is called "PCSX2" I made a blog about it some time ago: http://www.gamespot.com/users/DarkNeoBahamut/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-25652321
@kcwsk8: yes I can import the PS3 from US, but I don't know if the warranty is only applicable is US... but I think is worth to find out

Don't get a PSP.They will soon launch PSP Go,which is horrible and then replace it with PSP 2.Wait for that.As for the PS3,get the cheapest one you can get.If it has a game get that one.If you don't get a bundle,you should get as your first game Oblivion GOTY.It will give you more than 300 hours of gameplay.THe game isn't that new,but you will enjoy it a lot.You could also get MGS4 or GTA 4.Think wisely.Don't fool around with a 360,it's just not worth it
