3 or 360?
With the 'PS3' being launched. I started the 'when shall I go next gen'? cycle again. As with other consoles. The 'PS3' was far too expensive at launch, and again the first games seemed nothing special. I was tempted to stray and go for the cheaper 'X Box 360', which was established, had a large catalogue of games, and even had some budget titles too. In the end I bided my time, and got a '40G PS3' and 3 games in early 2008. 'The games bundle consisted of the crap 'Kane and Lynch', The overated 'Assassins Creed', and the great 'Uncharted Drakes Fortune'. I then got 'FIFA 09' and the dissapointing 'Tomb Raider Underworld' at the end of that year. My gaming was becoming less and less enjoyable, and I thought the enthusiastic bubble had finaly burst. Then in late 2009 came a new gaming buzz all over again. My 'PS3' was now connected to a 'HD' TV,was my 'DVD' and 'Blu Ray' player, and I found some games that I enjoyed. I borrowed the brilliant 'Batman Arkham Asylum', and bought the amazing 'Uncharted 2 Among Thieves'. I also played 'Silent Hill Homecoming' 'Resident Evil 5', and 'Everybodys Golf World Tour', but they were only average. I also borrowed 'Heavy Rain' which was thought was great, and even found a 'First Person' game that I enjoyed, after borrowing 'COD Modern Warfare'. My current 'Arsenal' of games are 'Tiger Woods PGA Tour 11', COD Black Ops', and 'Gran Tourismo 5'. I have to restrict my gaming now, due to the pain incurred from my increasing health problems, but at the end of the day and although restricted, I am still gaming to a degree. Having mentioned before. I have had to give up vertually every hobby I once had due to my deteriorating health. If I ever become completely unable to play games at all, then they might as well give me something to put me out of my misery.
