This list begins and ends with Punch-Out!
Punch-Out! is the ONLY must-buy for me.
The Conduit makes the maybe list.
Until then I will continue with the 360 and patiently wait for a PS3 with MGS4 bundle to reach the sub $200 mark
Nice schedule. A new PS3 will never ever in the life of that console be under $200, guaranteed.
I’m looking forward to punch-out! I dl it onto my wii and play it often.
I just ordered my ps3 for 345 shipped from dell. 20% off code! Sony has come out numerous times saying that they won’t do price cut…
Hi.
You must be new to the wonderful world of technology.
Every product has a life cycle and the PS3 WILL eventually fall to a reasonable price point it way take another year or 2 but as i said, I am happy with a 360, Wii, DS and PC, I can wait.
Sony and Konami need my dollars far more than I need their product.
No Pokemon Platnium? Those games are fun.
That and Chinatown Wars.
yeah, that punch out is about all I’m interested in too lol . I read somewhere that sony is supposed to drop the price of the ps3 in april. I also read that they might be trying to put out a ps3 without blu-ray….. matter of fact It was on loopygadgets.com.
I agree. And honestly, the lowest I EVER see the PS3 going for is about $250 in it’s lifetime. Hey, they’re not cheap to manufacture, and some people want them basically at a giveaway price and it just isn’t gonna happen.
I have a playstation 3 and now i wish i had boughten an xbox so there would be games.
I want more final fantasy… Yum!! Wii remark of ffIV! ^_^
but nvrtheless, I’m down for a couple of the above listed DS games. yum.
Definitely a respectable collection.
I had the “fat” DS but I lost it like a year ago. I’m anticipating the DSi so much. I’m practically twitching.
Why did you wish you bought the 360? There are a lot of good games out. Plus theres A LOT coming this year, 360 is only getting 3 exclusives.
