Any PS3 people

Anybody here got a PS3? I just got one. Pretty impressed. Looking for some online players.

Kheldar · Sep 04, 2007, 15:55:24

'fraid not.

could not justify the cost.

some friends keep tellling me to get a 360.

no money or time !

dont even play Wow anymore.

Have to agree with Kheldar. They are just too expensive, and I wouldn't have enough time to spend on it to warrant the purchase.

i only bought a ps2 when they was quite old and cheap and cos we needed a dvd player at the time so it did both jobs !

Ironically thats how we ended up with a PS3.!!

Needed a new dvd player for the lounge! Hehe. The misses fully endorsed it. So given the opportunity I wasnt going to let it pass me by.

I have recently purchased a PS3 but have never (yet) played online games with it.

Scottyboy · Sep 15, 2007, 02:44:47

ah Me too. Ive not ventured there yet.

What games do you like?

come visit ust at ZiiP. www.ziip.co.uk Good bunch of people. But Im looking for some ps3 friends

as I dont have many yet.

Hi Scottyboy, I quite like first person shooters...though I have a heck of a job aiming with the thumb sticks $:-\$

The games I currently have for the PS3 are:
Resistance fall of man
Ghosy Recon Advanced Warfighter 2
Call of Duty 3
Oblivion
Formula One championship edition.

If any of these take your fancy, we'll have to arrange a time and try to join each other.

All the best
Bob

I know what you mean about the thumbsticks. I find fps are best on PC but I did like resisitance fall of man and manage to get used to it a bit. Thats certainly the only one Ive got that you have. Not played online yet so would be good to give it a whirl sometime with you.

Hi I am new here. I have a PS3 and play only online. I am currently having difficulties with Pipex, my ISP, which is the reason for looking at this forum as I am considering changing to IDNet.

I have difficluty both logging in to and staying on the PS3 network, I think due to traffic shaping.

Can you recommend IDNet? I thought I may as well ask the people who play online.

If this post is in the wrong place I apologise.

Welcome to the forum Pozzi, have a welcome karma.

I'll go and find some links to other parts of the forum where we have been asked the same question...

Here's a link to a thread

Malc · Nov 01, 2007, 20:06:25

I have played PC online, yes ID net is highly recommended, no traffic shaping, I've recently transfered from pipex and the difference is unbeliveable.

Pozzi · Nov 02, 2007, 09:57:45

Thanks that's exactly what I wanted to hear, I find Pipex so unhelpful. There's nothing worse than being midway through a twenty minute game and your connection drops.

Kheldar · Nov 02, 2007, 10:02:42

welcome pozzi.

i play cs and tf2 online and dont have any issues with idnet.

my conn is pretty slow thanks to good old bt and my piece of string telephone line yet i can play online FPS no problem and still ping around 30-40.
