Yea. I play for like 5 seconds, then I don't want to play anymore. It's just not the same as old video games. I guess this is a sure sign that I am definitely getting old. I like games like Marion, Tetris, Contra, Zelda.....I know. Lame :D The great thing is that it plays Blue Ray discs. We got this new big ass, bad ass TV and we watched Horton Hears a Who this weekend. I don't even know what they movie was about. I was too awestruck by the hairs on the characters :)

Any suggestions on games I might like? I played Call of Duty, Grid and Force. Force is my favorite so far.

Not sure if it's your genre of interest, but you can always try a fighter like Soul Calibur IV. Could be a good way to break yourself in. :goodjob:

For some reason when we try to get on-line it says we need to DL an update, then we can't DL it So, we are working on that.

Ran,

Game Stop said I might like that game. I'll try it. I like all kinds of genres. Fighting, shooting and racing.

There's an official write-up over at Playstation forums.

Its kind of cliche but when NFS pro street came out at first it was kind of fun. The only thing is that everything is now done on the track it's not like it used to be where everything was street racing.

It think you should try prince of presia, It a little hard and you can't die so you don't feel like a failer.

chances are its more than one update.

a Firmware update for your PS3 and also a game update for a game such as COD4. there was a major update for tha game as well.


you would need to determine which update it is actually.

personally if it was the firmware update i would want to find out the root cause thats keeping me from downloading the sony firmware instead of trying to go around it with the flash drive method.




are you hard wired or wirelsss? if you are wiress try hard wiring just for the time being to get all the updates and then switch back wireless.

They make SNK and Capcom classic games. They have 10-20 little minigames that were older games. Pac-Mac, Street Fighter 2. Stuff like that, they're like $20 buck so check 'em out.

We were able to update the games, but when we tried to get online, it said to update. We are wireless, but we tried to ethernet from one computer to the system :???:

YAY on pacman!

We sold the Wii for the PS3. Dan loves it of course, he is a man. I'll be happy just with the Blue Ray capabilities. I as just trying to be a good woman by getting into the games for him :)

o,ok got ya.........how bout Guitar Hero or Rockband?

SleepingTalon
12-17-2008, 04:30 PM
Don't get her started on Rockband. When Dan called me Saturday morning, I was like "Get Tracy the ION drum kit!" LOL. I'd be over playing with you that day! COD4 is fun Tracy. You just gotta take the time to get used to it. It took me awhile, and I was getting frustrated, but once you get used to it, it's just too much fun to stop playing!

Tracy
12-17-2008, 04:31 PM

Oh yea! That's my shit. I kill it on the drums (an guitar and singing for that matter). We had it with the Wii. We are getting it for PS3, just waiting for it to get to Game Stop.

yea i would think trying to get into First Person Shooters would be hard now,i mean ive been playing them since Doom,but if ur new..i could see it being hard,plus they change alot from game to game.

Vteckidd
12-17-2008, 04:42 PM
I have everygame thats any good. Id recommend Sonic The HEdgehog, thats simple an mario like.

Drakes Fortune Uncharted is a bad ass game, its fun an not too hard.

youll like both of those

Vteckidd
12-17-2008, 04:46 PM
I think you gotta stay away from FPS cause they do take alot of controls and they arent easy to get used to.

GRID (Racing game) is awesome youll like that it has regular racing an drifting, DO NOT WASTE money on Gran Turismo Prlogue i think it sucks.

Little Big Planet is supposed to be off the chain, havent played ith though.

So far my fave games are Resistance 2, Metal Gear Solid 4, Drakes Fortune. Heavenly Sword was a cool game too.

yea Little Big Planet would be good,being its a platformer

Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is good. It's a third person action adventure game.

I have a pretty good knowledge of older games, but I've never heard of Marion. Later, QD.
