@vam...

2nd option..... u can buy games later.....have the best of two worlds...play beyond

 

[spikygv]

i dunno . .the p4 proccy will be a big bottleneck if he gets the 9600GT . and he has to get a good smps run that card . .i dont think that can be managed in 9k .

besides , is ps3 available for 24k ?

 

[Plasma_Snake]

As I see it, Vam man u've got 40 K budget? Well in that you can easily buy a PS3 GTA4 bundle and spend the rest of 13K on upgrading your system coz beleive me you'll be GTA4 for a looooooonnngggg Time. Even if you decide to buy MGS4 then again you'll have almost 10K left to upgrade your system.

rudik bahi,

what is the best ps3 is it 60gb or 80gb? the people who suggested me in this forum said that 60gb has backward computability and 80gb has not got it. More over, we can upgrade the 60gb too with another hard disk. What should i buy.

one more request,

please suggest me 5 good ps3 games. some of the games like heavenly sword, GT5 prologue, godfather the don edition, NFS carbon, pirates of the Caribbean at the worlds end, spider man 3, unreal tournament 3 are available for 1499 only. And games like half life orange box, oblivion 4, Assassins creed, burnout paradise are for 2499. GTA IV, DMC 4, Assasins creed are 2999. please suggest me any five games from this. And fist i will buy any two of them. And i will start to save the moeny for the rest of them.

This question is not only for the rudik bhai all of the readers. Please suggest me.

^Dude the 60GB has been discontinued long back.80GB isn't officially available in India, yet.So the way I see it pick up the GTA IV bundle & get Uncharted Drake's Fortune which will be well worth it.BTW you can add a SATA HDD to the 40GB model too.

As for the games, I would say pick up the GTA 4 bundle pack along with Uncharted Drake's Fortune & Heavenly Sword.The rest of the title you mentioned above aren't much worth it.UT3 would be best played with a keyboard+mouse combo on the PC.Try getting Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction & Resistance Fall Of Man if possible.Pretty good titles.

@Vam
If you don't want to play PS2 games, which I think you won't go for 40GB version and upgrade it if you want to. 60 GB version is available in India and priced at 30K whilst 40GB is for 25K. After official launch, 60GB one would be replaced by 80GB one and only pros its got over 40GB version is:

1. Few extra USB slots
2. Built -in WiFi
3. Bigger Hard Disk
4. Backward compatibility

Check this link for more info about the difference in between the two:
*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Playstation_3
I would suggest the 40GB version mainly for 2 big reasons:

1. For playing PS2 and PS1 games on your PS3, you'll need Original CD/DVD, which I suppose you won't be having.
2. If you go for a PS3 GTA4 bundle which contains a 40GB PS3 and a GTA4 Blu-Ray, it will cost you 27K whilst if you buy both the things it will cost you 28K(25K for 40GB PS3 and 3K for GTA4). Saving is good if you want to upgrade your PC later or buy more games.

As far as games are concerned I would suggest you the games which I would buy coz nobody here want to waste their money on stupid games which almost cost a friggin' Kidney:

1. Burnout Paradise
2. Devil May Cry 4
3. Metal Gear Solid 4

As far as Uncharted is concern I wouldn't go for it cause its as good as a One Night Stand. Go for it only if you are going to upgrade your PC cause both Devil May Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed are available on PC. DMC4's demo has been launched, full game will come soon. PS3's initial launch title didn't impress me either.
I'll be buying PS3 after my exams and will be gunning for GTA4 bundle and 2 extra titles, DMC4 and MGS4. I will like to suggest you to wait as I would for upcoming titles like Tom Clancy's End War, Gran Turismo 5, Resident Evil 5, The Bourne Conspiracy etc. In current title list I've mentioned only those which I found worthy of buying. This worth is on the basis of,Gameplay,Replayability factor,Cost etc.

i think if u r getting few games , its better to get those with online capabilities (multiplayer) so u dont get bored. COD4 rocks - do get it.
also PS3 60gb is out of production.even if u manage to get it somewhere , in case u ever need a replacement , though a very little chance, u will have a lot of problems.so get a 40gb GTA edition

 

[paranj]

40GB + GTA4 rockz.

Get Uncharted Drake's Fortune and MGS4 after its out. I wud suggest Stranglehold. Though many wud not like it , its my personal opinnion.

 

[Plasma_Snake]

@Paranj
BTW just asking, what's up with your Double Standards? Here you say" 40GB + GTA4 rockz" whilst in MAfia 2 thread you say " GTA rot in Hell", is this a M.P.D or what $h1t3 kiddo?

 

[paranj]

^^Ruddick, i am talking abt the bundle and not the game. Look at it from that point of view, he'll get a game + console for 1k less than he wud had to spend! Why do u guys just see an oppurtunity to fight with others? I was advicing him, if he likes he can go and buy whatever he wants but he's asking for advice so m advicing!

 

[Plasma_Snake]

Well I was just asking, No Offense I hope. BTW the GTA4 is gonna look equally SWEET on PC as would Mafia coz unlike consoles in PC one is not bounded with resolution, moreover in PC one can mod the $h1t outta the game and can deploy Hi-Res textutre packs to get the real Visual bliss. Mafia 2 as far as I've seen is gonna be high on gameplay and storyline but not on surrealism as GTA4 has been.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

PlanetM dealer in my town said that he has only ps3 60gb versions. Nothing else not a GTA bundle or some thing else. What should i do. Chennai is 140kms from my town. Do you advice that to go to chennai and buy a gta bundle. if yes, please tell me what's it's rate in chennai.

 

[m-jeri]

^^......Dont buy it.... old sku's..though safe if u want go ahead.....

but costly..try to get the GTA4 bundle ..worth it..

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

It's shocking to see the 60GB versions still existing.If those are the old SKU's which had issues with the blu-ray drive getting major SOD's then I would say chuck it & go for the 40GB one.You would be better off with it.Also from what I heard the software emulation for backward compatibility of PS2 games on the 60GB version is that it's worse than playing on the PS2.

I would suggest the 40GB version mainly for 2 big reasons:

1. For playing PS2 and PS1 games on your PS3, you'll need Original CD/DVD, which I suppose you won't be having

Ahem! The 40GB model doesn't sport backward compatibility with PS2 games.

 

[nish_higher]

60gb is still existing with some dealers which is old stock and should be avoided.the 40gb one is good enough..but it doesnt play PS2 games.

 

[SunnyChahal]

Does the 40 GB PS 3 have Wi-Fi?

 

[Ethan_Hunt]

^Yes it does.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

no body said about the price rates in chennai and where to buy , please i don't know anything about chennai and tamil. And what a worse i don't have any friend living in chennai. But there are some relatives for me in Hyderabad, will buying in chennai would be a good choice than buying in Hyderabad. Please suggest me.

 

[m-jeri]

^^...where do u wanna buy......

Planet M...Croma..Sony world..anything near ya?????
