I've been waiting for Heavy Rain for years. Real excited about that one. Wont be everyone's thing, see their previous game, Indigo Prophecy. One of my all-time favorites but, it was a love it or hate it deal and Heavy Rain will be in the same mold as far as game play is concerned.
Extremely story based gameplay...basically like you're playing a movie. Lots of people have been calling it an interactive cut scene game. Just to give you an idea.

At the Hooters by my house they're doing an NCAA Tournament. It's free and it runs for 10 weeks. there's like 15 guys in it (double elimination) and it's every Wednesday If you win one week your automatically in the final tournament. If you win it all, you get your choice between a PS3, 360 or a Wii.
It's pretty sweet.

I am an Xbox fanboy fo life but I am considering getting a PS3, the only game I really want to play for it is Drakes Fortune, but I would like to have a Bluray player.

It's totally worth it for the Uncharted series alone. That game just blew me away when I played it. Graphically, it cant be beat on a console...unless we're talking racing games, like Gran Turismo 5, which is breathtaking.

Seriously, the first Drake's Fortune was like a playable movie. It's the best game graphically that I have ever played (I don't play racing games). The second one looks to be even better quality and should be a really interesting storyline, much like the first. Also, God of War series just speaks for itself.
The Bluray player is a great added bonus.

I dont like racing games either but, a buddy of mine had it and let me borrow it. GT5's graphics are just sickening.

I never believed in buying a console just for one game but if you want it for the blu ray too then I say get it as long as you do find value on the purchase.

Speaking of God of War, are they going to make a new one that you know of?

Yea MLB The Show franchise is developed by SCEA. I was surprised too when I found that out.

Real Time Strategy games is one of my favorite genres. Halo Wars could do what Halo did for FPS on consoles.

I just realised that at the PS Store it is possible to go into another section "video" instead of "games". You can rent or buy like 1000 different movies and there is also a television section with a fair amount of shows. i'll probably never use it but I just realised they had it.

I LOVED the demo. Even though it was short. The controls I gotta get used to but it's whatever, game looks like it will be as good as advertised.

Killzone 2 has gotten some ridiculous reviews. So far on metacritic only two of 40 reviews have given it less than 90/100 and 15 reviews have it rated 95/100 or higher. It's a 93 overall (#6 all-time for PS3 games).

I really disliked Killzone 2's cover system. I probably just need more time with it but I don't like having to hold the crouch button next to something.

Yea it just takes some time getting used to. But the graphics, especially with the HUD off, are AMAZING

For anyone interested, the Resident Evil 5 demo is available. I don't know about anyone else, but RE is my favorite game franchise.
