SpawnPoint - Where Game Begins

Yes you'll need an HDMI cable if you're connecting it to an HD ready TV as you don't actually get one in the box :thumbdown:

You'll also probably need to get a DVD remote as trying to watch movies and surf their menu interface with the controller is a bit of a nightmare....you can get one for £10.00

Killzone II is a good game if a bit over hyped when it came out....pick up a copy of Assassins Creed from a bargain bin someplace is AC2 is coming soon and looks great.

You can get Resistance Fall of Man and Resistance 2 cheap now as they've been out for some time......

Wet is a cracking game but, again, is just out so shop around to see how cheap you can get it. Also don't be afraid to buy "pre-owned" games from the usual stores (Are you allowed to name places on here LOL) as most of them are in really good condition.

Hope this helps.

Killzone 2 is worth getting, especially if you're going to play multiplayer online.
Call of duty games are good too, but i'd get the pc versions.
Infamous is entertaining first time round, has no replayability or multiplayer.
Prototype is pretty similar to infamous... don't buy both if you do buy either.
GTA 4.....
Assassins creed but again limited replayability but definitely worth it if you find it in a bargain bin.
Little big planet is supposed to be fun but i haven't played it.
Resistance is ok, but again only really worth it out of the bargain bin.
Gran Turismo 5 will probably be good, except that its not out till december. Equally dirt 2 is a gd option for racing games. oh and do not get gt5 prologue it isnt a complete game if i'm honest.
Any of the Metal gear solid games are worth it.
The rockband/ guitar heroes games are worth it if you get multiple ontrollers and play with other people, they're still fun on single player but no where near as much fun as with friends.
The need for speed games are massively overated and if you actually want a decent racing game go gran turismo or Dirt.
Haze is another game but again only from the bargain bin as its just ur average fps game in many respects.
Fifa games have been steadily improving while the pro evo soccor games have been going down hill. (in my opinion)

Obviously a second controller, personally i'm happy using the remote for dvds so i'd try it myself before buying dvd controller. HDMI cable is essential of HD-TV. If you're planning on going online alot then a wireless headset/mic is worth looking at. If you've got wi-fi don't worry about a cable for connecting to internet as the wireless option works perfectly well on mine.

There are a fair few ps2 games which are really good but i'm not sure whether you ps3 will be backwards compatible, mine isn't but some models are.

I got GT5 Prologue free on download off the PS Network when I bought my PS3....:tt2:

yea im almost 100% sure the ps2 ones will work for ps3 the plug is identical i believe. Ill give it a testing when i can/if i can. Intec G5290 Universal RFU Adapter that is an adapter for all the systems(except wii) to rfu :) Also if you have anything else that has Audio video plugs (the colored ones as i like them being called :p) aslong as they are input ;-) you can connect the ps3 that way. I use my home theater system for that. Although i use the output audio video ones to plug to the tv. But it has the rfu one aswell.

Resident evil 5.

Also, from what i heard, Sony is gonna start releaseing some PS2 games. And there is alot of good games for the PS2.

I now have a shiny new PS3 along with GTA IV, NFS Shift and Pro Evo 2008 (£3 preowned ;)). It's a nice machine, looks good and it pretty quiet. Next job is to get it online.

Mostly been playing GTA IV so far, loving that apart from the dating and man dates it seems to want you to go on all the time. Also one mission seemed to involve signing up for an email account, that was exciting :rolleyes1:

My brother spectacularly failed on a date. He took her to a bar, thought he'd see if he could order drinks, pressed the wrong button and punched the bar. Then a bouncer attacked him so he killed bouncer, went outside and 2 more bouncers attacked so he got in his car, crashed straight into a police car then was dragged out and shot dead.
