This is the best deal buddy. You also get two of my fav games with it. Heavenly sword makes full use of the motion sensor on the Dual shock3 along with great gameplay.
Uncharted taps into all aspects of the PS3 with great gameplay and gorgeous graphics. half the time you would want to just stop and look around.

@Gollum PSN id - silicon_fusion

This week deal on PSN .NFS RIVALS Available in 1899. Just bought..
Go guys hurry up

So today I was playing gta V lonline while my ps3 got stuck at loading, I waited and I wated but the thing was just stuck. So I pressed the PS button and nothing happened. I had to eventually press the power button on the console and the PS3 made 3 quick beeps as it shut down.
The power LED was green when this happened. After I powered it back on there was not error message or file system check message. I loaded the game again and got the same thing again in another loading state online. Now I don't know what's wrong here and so I think I'm gonna give the PS3 a bit of rest and wait till 21 March to get my hands on Infamous Second Son and get along with my PS4.

depends on what size of TV you wish to use.
keep in mind ps3 and xbox games are not interchangeable and game parlous work if you have more multiplayer games.
BTW, ps3 and xbox games are not meant for commercial use, you can go to jail if you are caught.
Minimum term is 3years and I'm not so sure of the amount of fine that you will have to pay.

just bought a ps3, looking for some great RPG's & places where i can buy them in Delhi/Ludhiana??

I suggest gettings PS3 games online on PSn as they are at least INR 500 cheaper
Getting disc based games from online retailers like Failkart and Amazon is better as you get them for a cheaper cost. Retailers wil sell the game for full price even if the game is old.

you can easily find ps3 games at croma, sony showrooms and planetM

yeah PSN is seriously cheap. but digital library doesn't give you the same satisfaction as a shelf full of games!!!! :lol:

i'm also looking for some rare games like - Bayonetta, Valkyria Chronicles, Eternal Sonata do you've any idea where i may find them?

play-asia and amazon.com is the best place for rare games. you can also try bootstrap for used games. nehru place should have a shop or two but i've never seen one there.

I tried Amazon.com, though the game are cheap, I got hit by shipping and import charges.
My purchase of 7k got doubled to 14k (3k shipping and handling and 4k import charges)..

that's way too much bro.
I bought my asuka kazama figurine for a total of 5k, the thing itself was for 3.5k

What I wouldn't I do right now for some foreign cousins...
