I got mine on Thursday and not stopped playing it over the weekend. It is fantastic, much better than I expected.

The reason there are a lot left is that it is expensive and we are in March.

The launch I went to was a lot busier than the Wii one in December.

I think once the price comes down a bit and word gets round how much of a step up it is then it will start to sell in big numbers.

Yeah the only two decent exclusives!

I've only dipped into Resistance so far but it doesn't seem that special. I have been playing Gears of War for the last week though.

Scored myself one from ebay today, Brand new HK 60gb version with extra controller, COD3, RR7 & Resistance for £420. Much more reasonable price & only 2miles from work so I can pick it up sometime this week. All games/region I wanted too, can't wait to get on Ridge Racer...

The WRC series was from Evolution Studios and I guess Motorstorm took quite a chunk of the workload. Hope a new WRC game is around the corner, it was one of the better looking series on the PS2.

Your missing the point it's a love hate thing, we love to hate the PS3.
And i doubt many will trade the 360 as you think....Mark your words.


On a serious not, i hope it does do well, competition is always healthy. No one wants one company to have a monopoly on the industy, Sony did have for a short while. It's all good for us the consumer

Without a WRC title, the PS3 will stay on the shelf for me.

If C.Mc5 turns out to be good, would prolly get it on the cheaper console (x360).

Are there any other WRC or similar games due on the next-gen consoles?
