So yesterday I got the PS3 80GB. I got Warhawk, CoD4, and Motorstorm with it. I couldn't exchange Motorstorm for UT3 like I had wanted to though. So anyway upon taking it out of the box my first thoughts were "Wow this is a slick machine." It felt like a new car in a way. The controller was different than what I was used to on the Wii but it wasn't new since I had a PS2. I got used to the menu and interface pretty quick and like all of the features it offers you.

I went through all the downloads and patches but 2 things concerned me at this point. 1. Upon connecting the PS3 to my router it connected fine but says UPnP is unavailable and my NAT type is 3. This baffled me because I know for certain I have UPnP enabled on my router. I check my router settings and sure enough there it was, enabled. I have yet to see if I have any VC issues but this is quite odd. 2. I don't know if I have enough ventilation space for it. It's between my GC and N64. After playing for like 2 minutes the fans kick into high gear and stay on for as long as I play. The air is pretty hot that comes out. Anyone think this is a problem?

So possible problems aside I really like the PS3 so far. I set up my PSN and got my ID (Duckman5) and hopped into CoD4's campaign. This game simply rocks.Way better than I thought it would be. I liked it so much I didn't even play Warhawk. Online is even better. (Even though I suck at the moment)

So in all I am very pleased with the PS3 so far. I'm enjoying it and if anyone would like to add me feel free.

So...you got the PS3 anyways, huh? Couldn't sell it to me huh? Had to hog all the fun for yourself huh? Eh, it's cool. I've got my eye on a 60GB cause I've got a lot of PS2 titles to get. I want my collection to be ridiculous, you know. Congratulations on the system. I should be joining you on PSN in about 3 months, although I don't know if I'll like any games out for it right now

Nice, nice. The Wii still your main console or does the PS3 wear the pants now?

The Wii still wears the pants now but that's because there is more games I want for it. Maybe that can change. Maybe. Oh and me and Black are going to go on Monday.
