What's the best looking game on the PS3 now? My guess is Oblivion. Is there any other? Oh, and has RE4 released for the PS3 yet?

Check out Motorstorm and Full Auto 2, both games look great, Full auto 2 even runs at full 1080P if your TV can handle it. I've got a Motorstorm tournament on Gamespot @ 6pm CT, it can be watched live from their site tonight.

I don't know if they have any plans for that, I think the next RE game for PS3 with be RE5. On another note RE4 for PS2 works just fine on the PS3. As soon as the ver. 2.0 update comes out that all PS2 games and DVD movies will be upscaled to your TV's resolution.

Kickass. Oblivion already looks amazing at 1080i (which is the max resolution my HDTV supports). I guess I'll get MotorStorm & Full Auto 2 then.

When posting info you should always cite where your getting it from, copy and paste a link for example, its like a way of avoiding plagiarism.

It seems that this is just an accessory...not an official upgrade like microsoft did with the 360 Elite in which i dont own as of yet.

And Supra, I have a PS3 with wireless 60G version. I also have a PSP but it does not have the latest update 3.1 software. I cannot connect wirelessly to my home network even though my PS3 can. It is WPA i enter the password and still it wont let me on.

Anyone happen to know the latest game that requires the latest software version so i can upgrade it directly through a game. I tried to do it through my PC and it wont let me because the .psp format is not recognizable. This has been happening since i bought my PSP in DEC and cant seem to connect it to my PS3 yet because i cannot retrieve the most recent PSP software update. If anyone can help it would be AWESOME. I tried downloading to update from my PC to transfer it to my PSP and still no success.

Sad thing is i do IT and cant solve this issue.

What an essay lol!
yes next time i'll do that, i just thought that some poeple may not visit the link so i made it clear that the ps3 is going to be upgraded.

As far as oblivion is concerned it seems like one of the best PS3 games. COD4, GRAW 2, Rainbow six vegas, Madden 08 and if they decide, Splinter Cell: Conviction all seem to be great games that will be out b4 this year is over.

Not sure bout MGS 4, but that im sure will dominate.

Lets not forget GTA4

Ridge Racer 7 is probably one of the worst driving games I've ever played - and it's a shame because I used to love the Ridge Racer series. The physics/mechanics are rediculous. Please download the demo before making a purchase.

Also, if you have a fairly powerful computer Oblivion actually looks better on the PC. Fairly is only a machine with an X1950, equivalent, or faster.

You mean it looks better than in HD 1080i? It doesn't seem to.

OMFG they are making the Ace combat 6 for the XBOX360...Gameinformer, i have a subscription too, they dont say anything about releasing it for the PS3...but as i have said plenty time time will tell IMO.

Ridge racer 7..I cant even speculate, thought Grand Turismo shut them down IMO.

Ima need for speed guy lol even tho i dont own any of the recent games. SOCOM comes out in NOV, GTA4 in OCT, after my b-day

Can somebody explain 2 me what the hype behind oblivion is?

I liked the Ridge Racer games. But as you said, they didnt compare to GT. I always loved NFS as well. I think I am gonna pick up the SOCOM they have out for PSP this weekend.

You can only find out if you play it. Try playing a demo on the PC. It's guaranteed to get you hooked on it.
