Would be good if it did though. Better quality on PS3 and 360 wouldn't suffer too much. Prolly best if they developed a PS3 and 360/PC version alongside, but that's not always an option.

That's what I gathered from the E3 2010, when 90% of the developers were running their games on the PS3 for their conferences.

Especially when Gabe Newell said that Portal 2 will be best on the Ps3(out of the consoles, PC version will obviously be the best)

My ps3 ran on two 24inchish CRTV's until the TV in my girlfriend and I's bedroom crapped out. I think I left it on after playing Ps3, and it wouldn't turn on after that. So we go to Best Buy and I convince her that we should get the 37 inch LCD we now have. Mind you it came from the money Financial Aid gave her for school supplies.

A 160GB Ps3 was released today. Same $299 Price tag as the 120GB.

I think I might wait and see if they will bundle a PS3 with Gran Turismo 5.

They will probably release a GT5 bundle.

There will be a Titanium Blue 160gig slim with a titanium blue ps3 controller bundle, but as of yet it's only confirmed for Japan.

There's a chance that my brother and I could switch consoles. Just have to check some things on the 360 when I get it back from repairs.

Would be the cheap way to get a PS3.

A non slim version though.

Might be early one with the backwards compatibility still in place.

Which is only a bonus if you still have PS2 games, of course.

My kids have the slim. It is a wonderful console to be honest. I play Red Dead Redemption on it. Absolutely lovely game. We also play Madden Football that is a blast. True it does not play the PS2 games. That is not to killer for us though.
