The Solid Snake Buys a PS3 (and Saves his Sanity) Thread

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Other Stuff Procured: A $60 blue controller (ripoff, probably shouldn't have purchased it, only would use it for 2 player games anyway, regretted it not long after buying it, may decide to return it.)
A $30 controller charging system.
A $20 PS3 DVD-style remote.

Not sure why you bought any of this personally. I can understand maybe buying a 2nd controller, if you intend to game with friends, but surely you can get a cheaper controller than that?? Oh and make sure the controller is an official Sony one. Lesser brands are fairly crap.

The controller charger is utterly pointless, seeing as the console comes with a charging cable anyway.

And the remote... really? Why? Controllers work just as well and don't cost more money. You could get another 2 games for all that stuff.

EDIT; Oh and since you mentioned 2 player games, I submit Resi 5 for your consideration. No wait, hang on, come back, it's actually realy good.... so long as you play with a friend. I've had some good times playing that with a friend of mine on splitscreen and you can really make good use of teamwork to fight your way through the zombie hordes. Fun times.

Also resubmitting God of War 3 and inFamous. Those are both totally great.
