I'm still not a fan of the PS3 though, aside from Little Big Planet. Now THAT is an awesome game!

Sorry, but I don't see your library card on the books of Ys.  Now, RETURN THEM TO ME!!!

^ you should play Nier. It is such an awesome and under appreciated game. the game play is a bit repetitive, but the story, and especially the music is some of the best this generation IMO

I enjoyed it so far i just recently finshed dark souls got %100 in it finally,one of the most addictive arpg i've ever played.Btw ever try (3D Dot Game Heroes) ? It takes a retro style of grahpics done in 3d fun stuff there for a PS3 exclusive.

Also i do miss cartridge based console in this day and age.No load times to mess with and far more reliable but i doubt the market would ever return to that.

Well, in a way, portables have kinda returned to carts.  The Vita uses some sort of SD type card, rather then the UMD's that the PSP used.  And yeah, I'm loving my PS3, the Uncharted games are great, 3D Dot Game Heroes, the upcoming Jak & Daxter collection, Red Faction 3 & 4, the 2 downloadable Bionic Commando's, DC Universe Online, the Sly series, the Ratchet & Clank series, War for Cybertron, Batman Arkham series, Borderlands, the InFamous series, the Marvel Ulimate Alliance series, the Spiderman games, the Metal Gear Solid series, Mirror's Edge, Nier, Prototype, Tomb Raider series...probably more I'm forgetting.

Ahhhh yes I remember the days of pulling on the controller and the whole system comes flying off the shelf. Yes your gam would reset but they was made DURABLE. My dad once threwmy NES up against the wall cause I wasn't aloud to play it. The case chipped but it still worked lol.

I wonder if anyone here took a baseball bat to their NES to see how durable it is? :-s

^ i looked it up. its basically what plagued the xbox 360 with the red ring of death. ps3 version is called the yellow light of death. basically the heat sync stopped doing its job, so now there's an issue with the solder on the board. I would call sony and pay for a fix, but i have a Japanese ps3, so they won't touch it, they would want me to send it away to japan for repair. so I;m going to attempt to fix it myself tomorrow. Wish me luck guys

So do you have one of the original PS3 systems... the backwards compatible one? As my buddy had to retired his as the heat was doing a number on his board it seamed like every month. The newer ones are much more durable. So my buddy got a new slim one.. works great but when she heats up sometimes you hear the plastic "pop" expand on the case... there cookers!!!

I have one of the original models, the guy selling it on Ebay said that some of them had power supplies that were prone to overheating, so he replaced those in the ones he was selling and put new thermal paste in etc. I have never had a problem in the 2 years or so I've had it and it's seen a lot of use. The only problem I've had is freezing and some lag on games like Skyrim and Fallout NV, but I'm pretty sure thats the games.

Is this the beginning of the downward spiral culminating in a mental breakdown?  =/
