Depends on the E3 results, but if the Nintendo is good, I'll go for that.

Yeah, I'll probably buy it.
Always been into Sony/Playsation.
I'll wait and see what Nintendo has to offer before I make a decision.

I have been neglecting my ps2 for the past year, the only thing that brought me back was MGS3.
I hope this doesnt happen with the ps3.
I'll probably see a way to sell my PS2 so I have more money to buy a PS3.
IF i can play my ps2 games on the PS3, that is.

The clip that Neil showed of the new Nintendo had me going. If that had been real then i might have gone for that instead. But seeing as i love my PS2 i will proberly get a PS3.
Off-topic: I saw this area earlier. It said "test" then "E3 2005" i clicked into it then it said about the PS2 and XBOX360. Then it was gone. I'm so lucky.:p

gamestation will sell your ps3 cheaper if you return your ps2.
They did it with the ps1.

My brother's gonna sell his new slimline, at least he says, for the media Playstation 3. After I told him the diffence between the standard and the media station. I won't bother selling my current PS2, though... I couldn't get anything for it if I wanted to. It's model 39001. :p
Undoubtedly, even if it costs a bomb. I'm starting a nice paying Saturday job soon, so the sooner I get that sexy machine the better.

Yeah, I'll probably not sell my PS2, I like collecting my game stations :), and I'll work this summer So I'll probably spend them on a new computer and the PS3.

Better? It's less powerful.
cheaper? How do you know? No price points have been set yet.

I'll be buying a ps3, it'll be able to play ps/ps2/ps1 games and it'll probably make the ps2 games play with improved graphics, it's like the ultimated ego booster, I don't have to worry about how much it costs because I have my looney money.

It will supposedly play PS1 and PS2 discs, via emulation through the CPU.

What do you mean by that? I will have to hook it up to my PC to be able to play them or something?
cyrix
05-16-2005, 11:56 PM
No, technically the PS3 itself won't be able to play ps2 and ps1 games, but it will have an emulator built in it so that it can play them, yes similar to a NES emulator on your PC.
I'm not sure it if this is true, it's just what I read.

Im seeing what comes out first.
If nintendo can secure the major titles (GTA etc..) i'm getting that for sure, if they cant, im getting PS3 and nintendo revolution.
Nintendo for the win.

I think you can exchange it at EBGames. Goto a store located near you, and they give you cash to exchange your console to them, I believe. My friend said you can do that, better not be lying though. :p

Stores like cash converters. I wouldn't though, they seriously undersell you.
