Posted: 2/24/2006 6:29:22 PM EDT

pretty impressive little toy. Hasn't blown my mind yet though

Anyone here have theirs yet? What games do you recommend?
So far I picked up Dead or Alive 4 and Call of Duty 2

Sony Crapstation 2/3 fans need not reply

I have yet to see one on a store shelf or on EBAY for less than $600 for a premium package

Its GayStation 3, not Crapstation - though thats a pretty good description.

I reccomend Quake 4 and Perfect Dark Zero on top of the games you allready got (Perfect Dark Zero was a letdown, but I still enjoyed it).

Ghost Recon 3 comes out March 7, and Elder Scrolls 4 Oblivion comes out March 21

I'm in a college town myself, which is already an economically-depressed former industrial town before the bottom fell out on American-made goods. I guess Microsoft said fuck it and decided not to bother trying to sell any here

I feel pretty bad, the PC is getting absolutely torched with piracy nowadays. Doesn't really make it worth it to make a game unless it's for a console.

[#16]

roboman I hear ya! I am going to get it for the PC as well , can't beat player made mods! There where about 5000 some player made mods for Morrowind. So I hope to see the same for this one.

The embargo on alot of info will be lifted at Midnight , so be on the look out for new screen shots maybe or more. Plus Pete at Bethesda , said we should know the release date in two weeks. He said that about a week ago I think. So yeah im a nerd for TES.

Edit to say Oblivion will take about 5 gigs of space on the hard drive. So people on torrent will have to wait for a while.....

Midnight tonight?

Is the 3/20 date set in stone or is there any chance it could be bumped up sooner?

I absolutely cannot wait to play this game. I plan to not exist for an entire week after I first get it. Thereafter I will gradually reintroduce myself into society.
