There was a Kroger where i grew up (West by gosh Virginia!), but we all shopped at the Giant Eagle. The Giant Eagle was actually at the top of a mountain as well, like a nest....kinda ironic...but near everything was near the top of a mountain in West Virginia...I had to go uphill 5 miles to go...

I wanted to mention that i got at EB games a new item. They are clip ons to the L2 and R2 shoulder buttons for the PS3, making them concave, rather than just slope downward. They are only 5 bucks, match the existing plastic exactly, and work great. Below is the URL for more info...

Real Triggers for PS3 This should probably go into a new thread, but i am unsure how to start one. I wanted to mention that i got at EB games a new item. They are clip ons to the L2 and R2 shoulder buttons for the PS3, making them concave, rather than just slope downward. They are only 5 bucks...

Another happy 60gb user. Never had trouble with firmware. Enjoying the full hardware based backward compatibility. (SSX anyone?) Using a proxy to avoid updating firmware...wow! fyi, the used PS3 consoles that have backward compatibility are being sold for more than the new ps3 consoles at...

It is too bad it is a april fools joke. Many people really do want backward compatiblity. (got my BC ps3 4 months before buying a game for it, to get a BC model.) At gamestop, the used BC models cost more the new ps3 models. Sony just doesn't get it. (i.e. i still don't get many ps3 games now...

I actually got hot shots golf open tee for 14.99 at best buy this weekend, as well. It went well with the silver daxter psp bundle that they had discounted to 169.99. Do not know why they discounted it, but it is a new one. (i posted the psp deal at unversal price drops, as i did not know where...

I never had a problem with my 60gb either. It plays all ps2&ps1 games better than the original consoles. (60 fps). I haven't gotten gta4, which is the first game i have heard of that has such issues with the 60gb (and 20gb). Sony never should have discontinued hardware backward compatibility. I...

Thanks for the clarification. I was psyched till i found out it was only xbox. You saved me looking on buy.com fyi, the original blazing angels for ps3 is only 19.99 at EBgames (at least at my local one), but it is the original, with no rumble support. (I'd wait till the 2nd version lowers to...

Me as well. I just didn't get the game, as after reading about the issues, and having a 60gb ps3, i didn't want to risk buying it. so....I offer Road Rash 3d for the ps1 as my nomination for most disappointing game. (yea, i harbor grudges.) the genesis games, and the first game for the ps1...

And i was also thinking the same thing, but since i didn't get the game (i have a 60gb ps3), i didn't think it would be okay to post. So.....I was disappointed with Road Rash 3d, for ps1. (Yea, i really harbor grudges.)

I would rather have the ps3 than xbox version as i would like to play GTA4 on the PS4, eventually. Specifically, microsoft clearly does not believe in backward compatilibity, while the ps3 plays even the original gta games for the ps1 upscaled and at 60FPS, without a hint of slowdown. the...

Flatout 2 for ps2 is pretty good, but is incompatible with currently shipping ps3. it works great on older ps3 (with hardware chip for bc), and is mistaken for a next gen title sometimes.

Yep, i agree. I also have been getting their magazine through this offer since last year, and was wondering how they afford it. (I never expected it to actually work.) Maybe they justify it as a vehicle to get ads to gamers who have income to buy games, like newspapers are trying to do. Or...

Absolutely fantastic. I am not able to hear all the podcasts (not even close, actually), as i only listen to classical music at work (any linguistics distracts me), and i am reading on the bus. (Lots of FREE stuff at your local library, fellow CAGs) I really liked hearing your and wombats...

This is also the main reason i do not like digital distribution. It is good for games smaller than 250mb, but bigger than that, and i don't like it. (i have well over 200 ps2 dvd game based games, and do not want to buy a hd for all that data. Also, as Wombat mentioned in a pod cast, one...
