The best thing about that is that it will have cost him a small fortune just to list it with that BIN price. LOL.

Serious

I was once very interested in buying one, now I just dont care about it. If it flops its Sonys own fault.

Yes all of £3.25 as far as i understand, so not likely to break his bank  :mrgreen:

And commission on that will be a fair bit, but we probably not even talking £50

Ive been reading PS3 stuff all day, a lot of sites slagging off the traders who wanted to make a quick profit, lastnight prices might have been low but they seem to be creeping back up again now

But £485 for the setup wasnt it, they will sell just sly of that i reckon on ebay, but tbh i would rather pay the full amount get a receipt from the store than buy off of some dodgy ebay dealer.

Not that i will ever buy, imo consoles are crap after the king of all consoles, the Super Nintendo! :D

heh, i gather one of the local stores for the nationals have a tally next to the phone that they add to depending on what someone asks for.  Oh, and they have 5 or 6 PS3s left im told.

I got mine today with Motorstorm, its alright, probs going to chuck linux on it and stuff.

Ordered Casino Royale on BD today from dvd.co.uk for £12.99 inc del, before you start scratching your heads wondering why I didnt get the free one for registering my ps3, the big weakness that the ps3 had was fixed in firmware 1.54, euro ps3s ship with 1.50, if you want casino royale for free you MUST upgrade to 1.60...

Is that the version where you can get round the hypervisor?

No point in starting a PS3 network ID thread then since it would just be me in it :)

Resistance is very good.  I have had the pleasure of watching my mates play through it until very near the end.  Fortunately I slept through a bit of them playing so I should have a few surprises waiting for me when I start to play it through for myself.

Motorstorm is a blast but the buggys seem very slow compared to how you think they would perform.  The is the game I expected my mates to play the most.

Genji hasnt been touched. :)  I should have F1 in the next few days.

The Xross Bar Interface works very well, however it would be nice if you could hide empty items or at least reorder the items.

Aww, I was wanting to hear your stories of inflicting massive damage on giant enemy crabs.
It's all fun and games until a 200' robot dinosaur shows up and trashes Neo-Tokyo... Again.

I considered getting this but tbh I tire of FPS games very quickly, been there done that, so didnt bother.

I only bothered to get Motorstorm, it plays pretty well, vehicle select screen runs a bit slow for a next gen machine though.

Motorstorm doesnt use the HD as a cache thus load times can be unbareably slow.  F1 came today, but I stuck Resistance on for a good quick blast for an hour.

I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

Heh I impulsively bought one while drunk the night of release, played it a bit the last couple days - tis wank without an hdtv. Took it back to Asda and got a full refund :)
