I know we have quite a few gamer-members on here, and I'm about to get a PS3, I wanted to know if there is a charge to get online with it, to play multi player games, ect. Is it like the x-box that requires you to subscribe to a service, or can you just plug in and go?
Also, the new GTA; is multi-player only available online? -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW! QUOTE (DEATH @ Nov 11, 2008 - 5:40 PM)  Damn D-Man - most impressive. QUOTE (99GT @ Nov 14, 2008 - 4:04 PM) D-Man's post should be a sticky QUOTE (samir0189 @ Nov 4, 2008 - 10:50 AM) LOL, oh boy, you can always count on D-Man for ridiculously hilarious posts. |

QUOTE (Random_Stranger @ Dec 3, 2008 - 4:05 PM) Hey D-Man, can I borrow your thread real quick? Which PS3 plays the earlier PS games? The whole reason why I want to stick with PS is because of my Final Fantasy Collection that I spent so much on trying to recover from the past. I keep hearing 60G PS3 but people tell me all but the 40G. I want to know 100% sure before I leap into getting one, that is the main reason why I haven't gotten one yet. Also, is it true they are region free so you can play imports? QUOTE (Supersprynt @ Dec 3, 2008 - 2:45 PM) Manphibian is right - according to the PS3 website, there is no longer backwards compatibility with PS2 games, but some PS titles are still supported. http://www.us.playstation.com/PS3/Systems/Compare QUOTE Due to the availability of an extensive line-up of PS3™ system titles, the 160GB PS3™ system is not backwards compatible with PlayStation®2 system titles, but does maintain backwards compatibility for some original PlayStation® titles. Due to the availability of an extensive line-up of PS3™ system titles, the 80GB PS3™ system is not backwards compatible with PlayStation®2 system titles, but does maintain backwards compatibility for some original PlayStation® titles. So you'll have to find an older 60gig that will play them. IMO: If you have a PS2 - you don't need backwards compatibility since you have the system. Not to mention, you'll probably never play the PS2 titles anymore. But if you mean go rent a game, copy it onto your HDD and return it, and then be able to play it, no you can't do that. Answered already...
