Hello folks,
I'm considering getting a PS3 to play The Last of Us when it comes out so have a couple of questions:
-What is the best model to buy?
I'm not too fussed on HDD size, just want the most basic model providing they haven't removed anything essential like wifi to keep the cost down.
-Is it safe to buy used?
I see them pop up in the classifieds but since I'm on my 4th 360, I'd be hesistant to buy something without a warranty.
-Following on from the last question, how common is YLOD?
Again, after 4 360s, failure rate is a concern! Do the new models still suffer this?
-What is the closest you can get to the Xbox 360 controller?
It would have to be wireless, have the similar button layout to the 360, decent triggers, good build quality and no input lag. Asking too much? I really don't like the feel or layout of the dual shock but all the 3rd party controllers I've seen look like cheap crap. Any websites sell PS3 pads butchered into a 360 housing?
-What are the must have PS3 exclusives?
I'll still get multi-platform games for 360 but I'm sure there's loads of PS3 only games I'm missing out on. Not a fan of MGS series but I do like the look of Uncharted, Killzone, God of War, inFamous, Resistance and LBP. Lots of cool looking RPGs too. It's only really football, guitar hero style games and party orientated games I tend to avoid, so feel free to list as many or as few as you want. I don't play online either, but I dunno if that's relevant.
Appreciate any help
Cheers,
Lee
