So i just bought a PS3, someone help me with this thing...

Spool · 01-03-2009, 12:37 AM

I just got back from Atlantic City and won a decent amount so i treated myself to something nice...

Bought a PS3 80 gig, the newer model with the 65nm chip, supposedly it runs cooler and faster.

Can i download old school games for it somewhere online? I been searching and came up empty, and if i rented PS3 games from blockbuster, can i copy it onto the HD and play off that? I've upgraded the HD to 500 gig samsung so it should be plenty of space...

I have no game so far, just been loading it up with porn and Family guy DVDs, and just playing around with the web browser...

Whatever you do, don't get World of Warcraft or else your social life will be over.

I'd thought you spend the money on your car, or at least some slores.

to dl old school game, you gotta log onto the psn network. They usually run around 4.99 - 9.99 / game.

Yeah i got to that point, but i don't wanna pay...

With Xbox you can get an emulator and play ALL the old games for free...i was wondering if PS3 had something like that...i enjoy playing classic games more than these new 3D games that spin around and make u dizzy

FALSE. . .Yes you can copy games to your harddrive but you still need the disc to play the game. The only advantage is that load times are reduced (by a fair amount) when you copy games to the harddrive. However, if you copied the game to the harddrive then were some how able to make a legitimate copy of the game disc you'd be good to go.

AW_M3 · 01-03-2009, 04:25 PM

^ what he said is true, or the other way to be able to play a game w/o a disc is to buy it thro the store

Spool · 01-03-2009, 04:35 PM

damn, i think i over rated the PS3

rroof · 01-03-2009, 05:43 PM

Download "everyday shooter" from the PS3 site. $5 and it is a great game with awesome guitar licks/music. My son and I like that simple game as much as any other. Oh, and I (well, kids

) have a Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360 :0

at age 26, i've finally learned self control...in the past i would be up like 5 grand and i'd get greedy and keep trying to win more and then end up losing it all back and some more...now when im up a lot and i feel like im starting to slip, i dip out, go in the room watch some porn, sleep then wake up and go home next day.

if you can't quit while ur ahead ur never gonna be ahead, house always win

Wake27 · 01-03-2009, 06:54 PM

You're gonna have to pay for games unless someone burns them all for you. If you're that upset about it, that's pathetic. But if you have a PS3, you need Socom: Confrontation and MGS4: Guns of the Patriots.

I have ZERO discipline when it comes to cards. . .I keep trying to build on my stack or the chip lead. . .Definitely the hardest part about cards.

yeah man you don't know how many times in the past i've been up at the Casino, and then lose it all back and a lot more. I mean if you stay at the hotel, gamble and win when u first get there, what are you gonna do the rest of the time...u can only jerk off so much before u have to refuel, and im not young anymore, refueling takes time
