Okay I've just bought a PS3....
Hey all,
I just bought a PS3 with Burnout, Ratchet & Clank and Resistance Fall of man. So far have only had a chance to play Burnout but am loving it  Anyway, what kind of cool things should I be doing with my PS3? (I know I need to installing Folding@Home!) Thanks all and happy gaming, Leon |

Re: Okay I've just bought a PS3....
Ahh nice suggestion Mr Hex. Hmmm I wonder whether the PS3 will play ISO films (non copyrighted material) from my NAS drive.
/off to investigate |

Re: Okay I've just bought a PS3....
If your using a Mac, install MediaLink so you can share your media with your PS3.
Install folding@home and join the HEXUS team. My PS3 has been on for about 3 months now! Buy yourself Drakes Fortune and Devil My Cry 4 oh and pre-order GTA4. |

Reasonably.
He was asking before he brought either though  Anyway, I don't want to turn this into a war in the Sony forum, these is enough other people to do that What other games you looking to buy for it mate? Will defo have to have a play on it one of the evenings with a few beers if you want |

Re: Okay I've just bought a PS3....
There's a few decent games available fairly cheap just now if you have a hunt about. Good for building the collection. PC games, PSP games, XBox 360 games and games for GameCube, NDS and PS2 - Cheap video games price comparison is always good for that !
Just snapped up VF5 and Virtua Tennis for round about £15 each, rather good bargains I felt There's plenty on the Store to keep you entertained too, if you haven't already downloaded a multitude of demos |
