no i haven't gone online with the PS3 yet. my connection speed isn't that great with my wireless because the router is upstairs

i'll test it out and post my name if it's not all laggy

GTA the only game you have so far?

Yep, it's the only game I have so far, I'm waiting for Gran Turismo 5 now. I still gotta pick up my Sony 32' HDTV L-Series and Sony HDMI cables from Wal-Mart since my bank screwed up last Thursday morning and waiting for them to post my money into my account.

Those cables from walmart and the ones you can find from Amazon for around $5 are no different in terms of quality. Trust me I have throughly compared the two. If your cable is upwards to $100 than yeah there is a difference

Figured I would let you know so that you can save a little cash here

since you bring that up, im looking to buy a couple short HDMI cables, to use for my PS3 and 360 instead of having to unplug the long one from my computer all the time. These one's on ebay, think they would be just as good?

6ft HDMI cable

Meh, I know about the price differences, I just like to brand match products and I am a HUGE Sony supporter. I rather get what I need NOW than worry about shipping and waiting forever for it arrive at my door. I only buy online for things I CANNOT get in stores or something more worthwhile like a game system or computer electronics than some cable.

Oh hellz yez, I've been watching that video over and over for past 2 days now, I just LOVE the visual effects and realism of the car physics. I love the music as well, London Elecktricity. I saw the Forza 3 version...it looks like some teenage douchebag created it on spare time... CRAPTASTIC!

While I admit that the graphics are indeed better on the PS3 version (GT), it just seems like it has taken forever to get from GT4 to GT5. I think it's been something like 5 years. And during the 1 year difference between the 360 release and the PS3 release, I bought a 360 and have been just fine with it.....so right now I don't have the right platform to play GT. With the price drop, I'm considering the purchase of a PS3....but I'll still buy and play Forza 3.

You have to remember one thing about Gran Turismo: Perfection. Polyphony Digital are GOD at taking their time to get EVERYTHING right with exact detail. They don't give a DAMN about Forza, one thing you rarely hear Poly talk about. Turn10 just wants attention so they crank out this "so-called" enthusiast racing game every 2 years or so with craptastic visuals and fewer cars with repetitive tracks and Need For Speed tuning garbage.
