    That's not the DLC with the Akuma/Ryu stuff, is it?

    Nope it's called something like Part IV I think. Well worth getting considering it's so damn good and the game so cheap.

    I've not played the Street Fighter DLC but heard it's good although it doesn't fit into the story.

    I just got to the bit after the end of the credits. It's hilarious. I won't spoil how bizarre it is :)

    Do Mad Catz usually make decent fight sticks?

    As far as I know they're the top lads for good sticks.

    I really like the colours/presentation of that stick, looks slick.

    TBH Madcatz don't do much. They make a nice shell and then stick premium sanwa parts into it for their top of the range models. Their own parts aren't that great. What makes them good is that even with their low cost models it's extremely easy to mod in high quality parts.

    Kieth Chegwin visits Ocean Software in 1988



    (It's not terribly interesting!)

    What you can't see is Chegwin getting to shag Maggie Philbin and then chugging a bottle of gin... such are the poor production values of the 1980's

    Blindly bid on alot of things last night not expecting to win any of them, and not really caring either way. Ending up winning them all! Damn you ebay, damn you to hell! :(

    Ok I'm on holidays in for a week. Barcelona via Brussels incase youre wondering haha

    But I just won a gaming package off Carling and wondering what I should do. Is the ps3 package the best in terms of worth? And sell it on? Or should I get the wiiu because I don't have one

    What do ye all think?

    PS3 - Arm yourself with a PS+ account, free games, already a well established library of games for it.

    Wii U - No real killer app for this yet, it will come, just not yet.

    I'd say go with the PS3


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,754 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    I would say now's the best time to sell it all and use the funds to pay for the PS4 you'll be wanting come December!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,695 ✭✭✭DinoRex


    The actual launch line up for the PS4 is a little underwhelming though.

    No one could possibly be excited about a new Killzone game.

    Agreed, I'd say value wise & games wise, the PS3 would be the way to go.

    At least you can trade it in if it sucks..

    Eh hello? Get the WiiU, a free one is the only guilt free way to get one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,112 ✭✭✭Danonino.


    What valley said :)

    Unless you plan on buying a WiiU in the future.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,183 ✭✭✭✭Atavan-Halen


    I'd say go for the wii u. With the ps4 coming out loads if people will be selling their ps3's over the coming moths so you should be able to pick one up cheaply enough.

    Placed a pre order for animal crossing today. I'll be heading to get it first thing in the morning. I think the last time I pre ordered a game was for GTA San Andreas.

    Definitely. The new one on the 3DS is supposed to be brilliant and is currently one of the best selling games on the system in Japan with 4m sold so far I think. The game definitely becomes a time sink, making sure your town is weed free and all the residents are happy!
