I've been out of the game for a while so to speak and have lost my touch with the latest games and what is good or bad. I'm going to get a PS3 in a couple of weeks and I want to catch up and get the latest on what's going on. Does anyone know a good gaming website? Preferably with info about Wii aswell as I have one of them too, not too bother about xbox 360 as I am selling mine.

Any recommendations would be great.

Cheers.

Keep your 360 - that's my recommendation.

Try 'Metacritic' - pools 125+ reviews onto 1 website and then aggregates the scores. Will save you a lot of reading of individual reviews.

I used to be a Sony Fan but when I saw the Xbox 360 was coming out and that the PS3 was delayed. I thought I'd get one so I got one when they come out. Have had quite a few issues with RROD on my Xbox 360 got pissed off with it. My girlfriend persuaded me to buy a wii and I have been impressed but obviously if you wanna play hardcore games it's xbox or playstation so I guess after playing 360 for quite a few years it's time to go back to Sony smile

Why get rid of anything? Just keep all three, then you can ignore all the silly boys who bleat on about which is best and just enjoy the strengths of each console.

The only reason I got rid of the 360 was because of the RROD. My comment was tongue in cheek after thehawk's response. Both are great ocnsoles and unless you have games running side by side then you won't notice any difference.

I have both, but my PS3 is pretty much only used for Blu-ray playback, and even the novelty of that has worn off because I buy the cheaper DVD version or download stuff to playback on the Apple TV.

Drakes Fortune was one of the best games ever played, but I haven't really seen anything good since, hugely disappointed in Little Big Planet and virtually everything else is cross platform and the 360 has better controllers (IMO). Might give Killzone 2 a go though.

Funnily enough I'm the same but we've switched our lovefilm sub over to bluray so we are still enjoying the HD goodness.

I am however waiting for GT5 to come along so I can plug in my logitech G25 and get driving. If the 360 had support for the logitech G25 I wouldn't even be waiting for that, it would be Forza3.

Get a PS3

The 360 has only got a few games that stay on the 360 and those that do end up coming to the PC smile

PC + PS3 = best combo smile

I have been reading a few game reviews on www.play-mag.co.uk and also been looking on CVG as someone has suggested.

I have seen the killzone 2 80gb PS3 package on amazon I think for £289.99, I've done a quick search online and I think that's the best I can find. Anyone know of any other places/websites/shops or specific deals?
