    I have to admit though i now only have a select few games for the PS1 and the PS2 mainly my drivng sims, and the lara croft ones with a choice few others that i used to play hardcore on, but when i met Dave he got me using the PC more so i find it hard to go back to playing the RPG stuff without having a few hours practice first, for some reason i seem to play the RPG and FPS witht he keyboard and mouse rather than the controllers, although Tomb Raider Anniversary is rather entertaining on the Wii.

    well when it comes to FPS games the keyboard and mouse is much more accurate than the controller is. I am still needing to download the new Lara Croft Tomb Raider game off of XBox Live since it is so cheap and apparently really good.

    You can get a mouse and keyboard for the PS3. Takes getting used to but my friend plays all FPS with them.

    Advantage PS3?

    Why:

    -Free Online Gameplay
    -Built in wireless router (only new XBOX has that but you will overpay)
    -Controller already have rechargeable packs built in them -- plug them in USB and recharge .
    -Easily install $80 500gb hard drive in bay. If you need instructions let me know.
    - BluRay
    -Folding@Home
    -Connect Ipod (Microsoft only allows you to connect Zune...wonder why lol)
    - BluRay video game CD's.
    -Linux Install
    -Any BluTooth device connects easily! Connect any mouse and keyboard easily.


    Remember I have a XBOX 360 (elite), PS3, and Wii (black) so I am a Fanboy OF ALL SYSTEMS

    Well a couple things have changed on the PS3. Linux is no longer allowed due to hackers trying to find ways through Linux to crack the system to play bootleg games. Was in an update a few months back. As for the iPod I can connect it much easier with my 360 Elite than I can my PS3 60 GB system. I owned a couple of Wii's in the past but got rid of them both cause I just wasn't feeling the system. Go figure. I do like how you can upgrade the hard drive fairly easily though. I still need to upgrade mine hah. I'm really in need of doing this as my piddly little 60gb just isn't enough :/. While I am a fanboy of all systems I just never really got into the Wii I guess. I do like how they are selling classic games there but I can do that on my phone(a Droid X) with an emulator now. I need to get an adapter for my computer to receive the 360 wireless controller signal so I can just use that controller with the emulators....have thousands of games to play when I do that.

    Let me know if you need some instructions on replacing your PS3 harddrive for a 500gb one. I have the instructions and tips.

    Yeah I dont play my Wii much but its fun for a couple night or whenever your girl wants to play.

    thanks...I know there are instructions all over the place at how to back up the system and swap it out but just haven't had the funds lately. I moved from Pasadena, CA to Godwin, NC(near Fayetteville and Ft Bragg) and have just been going to school so no income kind of puts a damper on buying things.

    Did you get the Final Fantasy Chronicles that had Chrono Trigger with it? If not you should check out Chrono Trigger and it's 13 different endings lol
