Yeah i have to pick up a PS3. Well not so much for the games, but for the Blu-ray player. You figure most blu-ray players fall between 350-599. So i guess buying a PS3 would be killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Plus it would really add to my overall entertainment system :-D.

Yeah COD4 is definitely worth the money. The multiplayer is jaw dropping, not to mention it doesn't get boring. However looks like Battlefield: Bad Company will be a promising game as well.
Somehow i have racked up almost 15000 kills lol. I need to find another hobby for the winter.

At any rate, I think the whole First person shooter thing is getting kind of old.

I gotta kind of disagree with your call on COD4... Don't get me wrong, the single player game was awesome....for the 4 hours it lasts! A complete joke in my opinion. Spending 60 bucks on a game that's over in 4 hours. Second time through, on the harder setting, it took like 5 hours. The multiplayer does kind of make up for that, but multiplayer should be a bonus, not a primary factor. Overall, I had more fun with both Halo and Bioshock.

Yeah well i am a person who isn't a fan of single player games. I pretty much only play games that have competitive online gaming. I think the farthest i got in COD single player was the helicopter extract where the ferris wheel is.
I think the multiplayer on COD crushes all of the competition. Halo 3 = overrated, GOW= horrible online support, COD3 =treyarch sucks and is unfortunate they are making COD5...
There are a lot of promising multiplayers coming out too, like Bad Company, and Turok (who doesn't want to kill someone with a bow and arrow).

I got the PS3 so even if somehow HD-DVD makes a shift (which isnt looking good) I still have a great game system and its no big deal.....
Blu-ray was just a perk to the PS3

yeah turok looks sweet. I remember playing the first couple on the 64 i think it was. The main thing with all multiplayer is that there's just too many dicks online. I like to play by myself. I'm kind of game nerd too though, I like games like Final Fantasy and other RPG's.

Well blu-ray (if you read the news) is pretty much stomping hd-dvd to the ground....they are hanging by a thread and if universal and paramount make a move the war is over, which all it will take is one to move and the other will follow. Blu-ray has Warner Bros, New Line, Lionsgate, HBO, Fox, Disney, and Sony all exclusive now to blu-ray. The only ones HD-DVD has is Paramount and Universal which is not good because they both had a claus if Warner made the switch they can opt out of there contract with HD-DVD and go too....they just haven't done so yet, but everyone feels its coming. Which is great because I want Transformers on Blu-ray damn-it!

PS3 like i said is the only one that is able to be upgraded through software support but seeing how 85% of blu-ray players is in the PS3 they don't really care about the other 15% who will have outdated versions who didn't wait.....
electronics suck these days......no matter what you buy its outdated in a year, well except the ps3 - which will eventually be outdated by the PS4
