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

One thing on controllers, re: Charging.

The charging USB cable that comes with the PS3 is short as fuck. If you're getting a second controller, this doesn't matter, at all, as you can have one plugged and charging while playing on another and switch every 8-16 hours or whatever stupid time frame it takes them to die. Also, it charges much faster than it burns power, so even with one it's only a mild inconvenience. Within a fifteen minutes to a half hour of 'playing' charging you'll have a good hour or two of charge.

However, it's still pretty annoying if you forget to charge your controller and want to keep the PS3 in a cabinet or anything where you won't want to be pulling it out of.

THUS, I suggest returning the charger and then buying a longer cable.

On games, I'm going to suggest Heavenly Sword, and second most of the other suggestions.

Didn't really like Batman, though. It gets boring/repetitive after awhile, and just kind of seems to drag on forever. Still haven't beaten despite having easy access to it for months now. Just kind of quit after awhile 'cause, meh.
