PS3 Slim?

[MrSelfDestruct]

I'm torn on the old, fat PS3 and the slim now. They are priced equally now, and I was reading on slickdeals that Best Buy is including MLB 09, InFamous, or Killzone 2 with the purchase of a fatty (YMMV).

The fat one allows you to install Linux as an alternate OS which would be awesome for a media center. Linux would allow .MKV playback, as well as get rid of the 4GB FAT32 restriction that was my main reason for selling it in the first place.

I can't wait until Fable 3 comes out although I haven't even played Fable 2 yet. Is it any good?

Fifa 10 and PES are released in the next month, too!

I was never into Fable 1.. but I love Fable 2. although Oblivion is a lot better, by a long shot.

Oblivion, if Fable was on the ps3 it would just be one less reason to own a 360

ah ok gotcha

wheels you should most definitely get a PS3. we could dominate MW2 or 2k10...

I'm probably going to pick both of those up, we'd have 3 positions filled up in team up for 2k, we need 2 more people! I really suck at call of duty though.

I always felt that the original Fable was much too restrictive. I was thinking of buying Fable 2 yesterday but I was having second thoughts. I'll probably purchase it in the next couple of days.

Oh man I'm SO STOKED about MW2! Thanks for the reminder! I'm not great at it though, but I'm not horrible, I got an almost even K/D ratio though, so I'm not chopped liver. But that would be sweet! I do love the realism of COD games, maybe this new one will have "Iraqi Zombies!!!" lol

Yeah I never could really get into the first Fable, but I always compared it to Morrowind, since I was playing that a lot. But Fable 2 would def be recommended, especially at a bargain price since the game has been around a little while.

Yeah, I was just always put off by the guns though. Does it effect the game if you don't use them?

I only have put in about 5 hours in Fable 2, and there was one mission where I had to use the gun (as a kid) and then as an adult you get a cross bow to use, so it isnt a gun.. but you very well might have to get a gun later in the game, I'm not sure.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

I don't mind the crossbow. I'll still buy it.

Hey wheels if you are serious about purchasing a ps3 i think i would recommend one of the fat ones, yes it takes up as much space as the first xbox did, but i've heard that the slim freezes more, so your call i guess.
