PS3 and me.

Good afternoon peeps, hope your day is treating you well. I recently picked up the Metal Gear Solid PS3 Bundle for you guessed it, MGS4. The Playstation brand and I have a love / hate relationship. In the last Generation of consoles I was clearly an Xbox user, I thought the controller was better (still do) and the games looked much nicer than the PS2 counterpart. My main problem with the PS2 was the controller, I found it really uncomfortable to use. I love FPS games and the PS2 wasn't cutting it, sadly it became my least used console ever. Looking back it bums me out because I missed quite a few good games, the MGS series for example. Fast forward to the current generation, I love my 360. When they announced the PS3 I was stoked, but honestly for the first 2 years there was nothing I was interested in playing. Factor in the lack of rumble, why the hell would I want that? 360 is awesome.

Fast forward again to about 3 weeks ago:

The MGS Bundle was perfect, it had the 80 gig - tricked out PS3, MGS4 and the new Dual Shock 3. I took it out of the box and was shocked at how nice and solid the unit is. Built in Wi-Fi is a nice touch, I have yet to play a Blu-Ray movie - Netflix here I come. Now for the shocking part, I love the Dual Shock. Did they make it larger? It feels great, now with triggers! Too bad MGS4 didn't use them for shooting. I am happy to be part of the Playstation family again, with all the new games coming out (I just bought Resistance) and PSN's future looking bright. I'm stoked.

Who'd a thunk it?
