I want to play this as well. I think I almost have the wife sold on streaming HD movies from netflix as a reason to buy a PS3.

Three words - Call of Duty

I never played a first person shooter until my neighbor convinced me to try Call of Duty, I have been hooked ever since.

600# to answer your question, yes you are destined for death and suckage, but it is still fun.

If the PS2-as-DVD experience has been ported to the PS3, you don't want to rent many blue-rays for it. The streaming netflix is probably better for that anyway, unless I'm incorrect in thinking its HD.

Also, the PS3 is like a media management thing, so you can easily show photos and slideshows on your widescreen for people. Much better than trying to gather the in-laws around the laptop to see the last round of vacation pics.

ps3 works great as blu-ray player. Get the bluetooth controller for it, just like a vcr remote. using the controller is horrid.

The only reason a man needs to buy a PS3 is he doesn't need a reason. Just do it.

This, except the controller part. It's not horrid just crappy as one would expect it to be. And the money saved can buy a new game.

Also, media streaming from a computer to the ps3 is tight. I use something called TVersity on my computer to serve up all my videos plus streaming shiz from places like Hulu.

Is this game really fucking worth it?

I've heard a lot of hype.

Just make your bedroom a no kids zone and play at night after everybody goes to bed with headphones.

I was raised on video games. Of course, they weren't in our home so it was easier to control access. And games weren't so sex + violence yet (sadly). Can you not control this stuff, get age appropriate games, teach kids quick, good decision making, and choke out hookers in GTA after hours? I mean... I would think a PS3 would be necessary to fatherhood and sanity.

now what's your excuse for being obnoxious?

it's weak that you call us out for being "uneducated". meanwhile, the fact that you're obviously completely incapable of communicating with anything but a profusion of expletives and ten dollar words makes you look like an idiot - out of control of your emotions. even when you have the opportunity to edit yourself.

find a choir to preach to.

can you imagine if lox and all his "leeches" all started posting on the above site and called all the other posters shiteaters? i wonder how long that would last?

LOL.
