Looks like I'm gonna get a PS3 on 10th January, so for the freaks that own them, what advice tips would give me (good games etc)
Is it as easy as the 360 to set up internet connection?
What accounts do I need set up to play MGO?
Is the browser any good for web surfing (speed, security etc)?
Hey, that's pretty good - welcome to the PS3 club
. Well, first of all, setting up the internet connection is easy as pie. All you need is broadband connection (wireless or wired), and a Playstation Network account (PSN account) from the Playstation website. Through your PSN account, you'll have an identity for playing online games, and you'll have access to the PSN store.
The browser is only as fast as your wireless access. So, if you have a fast broadband connection, you shouldn't worry about speed. As for security, I'm not so sure. I believe that the PS3 has a built-in firewall (but, don't take my word for it).
As for MGO, I still haven't played it as yet (even though I had MGS 4 since june
).
Now, let's talk about games. Since you're just getting your PS3, I'm going to recommend "Uncharted: Drake's Fortune" as your first game. Drake's Fortune has tremendous replay value, and a fair amount of trophies to collect. Even though the game was released over a year ago, it's still my favorite PS3 game (besides MGS 4).
