Buying PS3 only bc of..... - Blu-ray Forum

Grand Theft Auto 4

I have spent numerous of hours playing the other GTA and i can't wait to get my hands on the 4 installment.

I know i know the PS3 is also a great Blu-Ray player and has cool features.
I already pre-ordered GTAIV and don't even own the PS3 yet.
The only reason i haven't purchased the PS3 is bc of the lack of games. I already have a stand-alone BD player, so there was no real reason to shell out $400 bones for a great gaming machine with no real "got to have" titles.
I can't wait to kill gang members,drive irratically and beat on hookers on my 42in Display.

Anyone else excited as much as i am about GTA4?

The "no games" shtick is old and tired. There are PLENTY of good/great games for the PS3 now. I have several that I would consider "must buys" if you own the system.

As for GTA4, I have always been one of the minority who don't care for the series. I've played all but San Andreas and didn't care for any of them.

Ah, and yet San Andreas was the best of the bunch.

And +1 to the PS3 having a decent library now. People seem to still be living in November 2006. I have more great games than I have time to play, and the AAAA titles haven't even graced the PS3 yet

I agree, there's plenty of enjoyable games on PS3.

Agreed. Uncharted is a must have. RFOM was great. I never owned it, but will buy RFOM 2. Ratchet and Clank was a ton of fun.
There are less games out for the ps3 than the 360.
I would much rather have less games with some gems (ps3), than have to sift through hundreds of mediocre games to find the few great ones (360).
PS3 will bring innovation technologically (Killzone 2, Metal Gear Solid 4) and creatively (LitteBigPlanet) while 360 just brings the same old, same old. I am so glad I don't own one of those.
