check out amazon, I got my HDMI cable for $5PujolJunkie wrote:Probably going to be investing money in a PS3 next week sometime. Plan on picking up BioShock, which is only 19.99 now and hopefully Uncharted 2 is back in stock at work by then. If not, I gotta make a decision. Because I definitely want two games. May go with Ninja Gaiden Sigma or Borderlands, even though I think I'd rather have it for the 360. I'll figure something out.
One turnoff about the PS3 is I have to buy the HDMI separate, which is an extra 50, so I may just end up getting one game and the cables. I can't imagine gaming in a world without HD.
Also, is it lame that one of the sole reasons I want a PS3 is that I'm such a HUGE Final Fantasy fanboy that I'd buy it at this point just for FF 13? Because I'm so hyped for that game I could esplode.

Re: The Video Game Thread
Thanks for all the help (especially Joce!)
I ordered it today from Amazon, and bonus, it went down 5 bucks from like two days ago...so I got it for 35.00 instead of 40.00
Gonna be a few days as I'm cheap and do the super saver shipping, but I'm pretty pumped to see what the big deal is and start playing..

Pick up an HDMI cord online for cheap-as-free. I bought 3 12ft. HDMI for apprx. $25 with shipping.
What are your gamertags? I'm Fugaizi if someone wants to play NHL2010, LBP, and whatever other games I bought but have already forgotten about.
I finished Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, cool game. I am undecided between CoD:MW2 and Uncharted 2.

The reason game systems, printers, speakers, blu-ray players, etc don't come with cables is retailers won't carry products that included. The markup on cables is astronomical.

Uncharted 2 is the best game I've played all year. It's single player campaign blows U1 out of the water. That said, if you want multiplayer I suggest MW2.

BTW...MAG is an open beta until the 10th. I have no idea what I'm doing in that game, but I was killing everything yesterday.

JoD, I have NHL08 and 09 and really love the Be A Pro mode. Any particular reason I should upgrade to NHL10?
