Good PS3 Games? And other questions.?

Any

I'm getting a PS3 this month, I'm probably going to get the Black Ops Bundle if they still have them for sale. I love Black Ops, I have a copy for my wii, I'm a big fan of any genre. What are some good games for PS3? And which are good to get to play online with? I was thinking of getting Portal 2, RDR and some others, it really doesn't matter what kind of game 'cause I like them all xD Also is 160 GB big enough to hold game data + DLC + 50 or less songs? I'm not planning to movies or download full games, only thing I'll want to put on my PS3 are the game data and whatever DLC I buy and a few songs maybe, how many games can it hold? Also should I get a gaming headset? I was looking at the P11, it has some good reviews. And should I get a stand? Which way is best to have the PS3, horizontal or vertical? I have carpet flooring so idk if it'll block the vents or something D: Also feel free to give me any other info a new PS3 gamer should know, thank you :D
Also one more questions, should I get a surge protector? I've gotten power surges a few times and it makes my wii not go on for a day or so, not sure if it would fry my PS3 or something D:

Answer
Well my favorite game for PS3 is Uncharted 2: Among Thieves. It's a very, very good third person shooter/adventure game which is a PS3 exclusive. Also Assassins Creed 2 & Brotherhood are epic conspiracy games. AC1 is a bit repetitive though, but if you want to understand the story I suggest you play it first. Also Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a very good first person shooter as an alternative to COD. And one more game I would recommend is GTA IV, one of the best games I have ever played.

Get a gaming headset if you plan on playing online. In games like COD, Battlefield and really any other first person shooters it can often be handy having a mic. I have previously owned the Turtle Beach Ear Force P11 and had no problems over the two years I used it. It is really lightweight and rugged and the sound quality is top notch for a average priced mic. It also features bass boost, independent volume controls and mic monitor, which allows you to hear what you say into your mic.

I have a 120gb Slim PS3 and I think it is great. 120gb should be enough to hold what you have mentioned. It depends on how much space each game takes up if you are wondering how many will fit on the hard drive. I wouldn't bother with a stand though, I think the PS3 runs better in it's original horizontal position. And as for a surge protector, if you have had problems in the past I would recommend one because power surges can stuff up your PS3 big time. Hope I helped :D

I recommend the Samsung Monitors. They are way better than the other brands. Lasts long and the view is awesome. Don't go for others. If you want go for Sony... These are brands that are worth your hard earned money...

How do I find subjective reviews for Internet filtering software?

Need to filter / monitor 4 PCs in my home. When I look up reviews online most of them seem to be more advertising than anything else. I don't know what to trust. Subjective input from those who have used such products would help also.

Answer
Everyone has their fav, but as too how reliable that fav is??? It is entirely subjective to how a person uses a pc. A gamer will not like Nortons or any of the other resource hogs because they need speed & the hogs are using those resources by scanning & watching everything.

A typical surfer won't notice the slow down, though the typical user needs a program that does the work for them because the typical user won't remember to scan every week or update or keep on top of keeping the pc clean of other misc stuff. So the typical user could have the best software protection in the world & it won't mean anything if the user doesn't have it set up to automatically do everything.

Still others go to every questionable site they can find & can have all the very best protection & they will still get nailed by nasties. Build a better mousetrap concept...

So it is very subjective to use. What you need is objective facts. Perhaps the most objective is consumer reports. They did a test of all the majors recently in Sept.

I also like pc magazine. Yes, they are corp & do like to make a $. But if their info is not consistantly reliable they won't be making any more $ off magazine sales or advertising because the won't have any credibility left. So I believe that their info to be reliable despite the ads.

So it comes down to how much you want to spend. You can spend $$$$ & not lift a finger once it's set up, & you need to pony up some more $$$$ for relicensing. Or you can go the free route & spend a bit of time updating and running the software. There are many great reliable free products out there. Either way, you still need a layered approach to computer protection. Virus protection, firewall, spyware detection, adware protection & then a product that will catch trojans & other little nasties. Because no one product does it all despite their claims.

Whatever you do, keep your ms os's up to date & get rid of IE & put Firefox on as a browser. Not using MS will solve alot of problems.

What would you recommend for a fantastic Gaming Computer?

Jordan G

My budget would be $1500 to $1600. I am planning on getting one custom built. So I'm looking for part recommendations, monitor recommendations, etc...

-Currently I want to play Warhammer Online at max settings.
-I would like a computer that will be able to handle any games (Particularly MMO's) that will come out in the foreseeable future perfectly.

Thank you so much for your help! Simply put I want a kick a$$ computer that will laugh at anything thrown at (within my budget lol). Thanks!

Answer
If you want Kick A@SS, then look at the new Intel i7 CPU and and an ASUS Rampage II extreme motherboard:

Motherboard:

http://usa.asus.com/products.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=2619&l1=3&l2=179&l3=815&l4=0

This is one honkin' mobo! Expensive! Around $450 but you get EVERYTHING.

CPU:

http://www.intel.com/consumer/game/index.htm?iid=gg_play+home_game

This takes you to the Intel Gamer site, but the most cost effective CPU right now is the i7 920 for around $330.

The motherboard can run EITHER SLI or Crossfire which means you can go nVidia OR ATI, at your pleasure. I would recommend ATI's Radeon HD 4850 card @ $179 each which is far more cost effective than the nVidia GTX 280 or GTX 295 cards which are over twice as expensive each. This way, you get great game play at a VERY effective cost. If you want, you can up the ante a little bit and got with Radeon HD 4870 in Crossfire mode, each card is about $330.

I would just rely on standard motherboard sound, but if you just have to have it, buy a XI-FI card. I think its a waste myself, but that is my opinion.

This motherboard takes up to 24 Gigs of RAM, so if you wanted to be very hot, you could go 12 Gigs (two Tri-channel pairs) for 12 Gigs of RAM. Make sure you read the specs carefully to understand which memory is best. You might want to download the motherboard manual before making any decisions, and look up the latest BIOS update and see what problems the board has been patched for. Of course it will be the problem of the person who puts it together for you to get it all working right.

I would also look at getting a couple of Western Digital Velociraptor 10,000 RPM hard disks.

I would go with an ANTEC or Corsair PSU, at least 800 Watts and make sure that the PSU is SLI or Crossfire CERTIFIED!

Finally, I think a CD/DVD +/- Writer, I prefer Pioneer brand myself, very steady, never had one burn out on me - and or LiteON, is the other one I like.

Take a look at the NEW, ANTEC 900 II, for a case.

And you can get a 24" LCD now for as low as $259 - Isaw one the other day in my local newspaper at Fry's on sale for $259 - do not know the brand.

You might have to increase your budget a smidge to fit all this in, but if you want that kick ass computer, this is what you will decide to do.
