It's an end of an era for Playstation 3 consoles. Japan have confirmed the final consoles have been built and shipped and no further production will take place. This will filter through to EU and NA in due course. 11 years shelf life is pretty darn good in this market, I don't think the latest consoles will last that long. I didn't play one growing up, I was purely xbox 360 until i came here and got a pre-owned version. I never thought it cut the mustard against the powerful xbox 360 at the time.

Dean was a old forum member also known as Zake_Dizzle and he was in our clan B4B on PS3. I loved his music posts and gaming with him was always good fun. I never thought i'd live to see one of us pass away. This really has me heartbroken.

Hey guys, This thread is for our usual banter. Enjoy! Xbox 360, PC, PS3, PS4, & Xbox One (if there is any), [|FG|] members all welcome.

Tomorrow Ghosts comes out, if you would like to let people know when you're getting on for the PS3 let us know here. I won't be on until tomorrow night if anything.

So with this gaming coming out soon, who is pre-ordering and what console? I'm going to place my pre-order for the PS3. I have JollyGrnGiant (Matthew) who some may know of him, he is also getting it for PS3. So will there be anyone else getting it on PS3?

Ashley Johnson voiced the role of Ellie in The Last of Us video game. The film, announced in March, is still early in development, and the actress is yet to sign on to the role. Sam Raimi, the director of the original Evil Dead and Spider-Man trilogies, is set to produce. Naughty Dog's creative director and writer Neil Druckmann will pen the script. The script will have some changes from the game's story. Initially Druckmann wanted the film to have a different ending, but Raimi convinced the writer otherwise. According to Druckmann, Naughty Dog has final approval on both the casting and directing of the film. The news comes shortly after the announcement of a release date for the Uncharted film, another adaptation of a Naughty Dog game. http://www.polygon.com/2014/7/25/5937609/the-last-of-us-movie-announced

Do you think it would be possible, and easy to put Dualshock3 sticks into a Dualshock4? After having a shitty time on ghosts I decided to fire up the ps3 and black ops 2 to see if I really was this shit, turns out I was very good having not used a ps3 in months, it just felt right, so I'm going to try switching aim and shoot back around to ps3 style and in thinking of modding my controller... I think I have a problem with the sticks on ps4... I prefer the smoothness of the rounded surface... So do you think I could swap the sticks over? Has anyone else had their controllers apart yet? (A long shot I know) I'm a bit wary of ruining a brand new £60 controller...

Does your headset work on the PS4? I have a Turtlebeach PX3 and can only hear static from other players, I have tried searching youtube but what they suggest to fix, dosent work. the best I have got is very quiet game audio which cuts out whenever some mic static comes through... I wont be very happy should I have to buy a new 1... why couldn't they have just had the component cable in the back of ps4 like ps3?

New PS3 patch (1.04) for Ghosts today. No details of changes yet. Please post when you find out what it is

So I made a crew for the forum. Forever Gaming was taken, obviously. I picked "4Ever Gaming". To my knowledge, it's a invite only group so i'm sure we'll figure out how this works as we go. Crews won't really come into play until Oct. 1st when Online is here. But figured we'd get this out of the way. EDIT: Edited the title to include PS3, as I don't think you can cross platform this. http://rsg.ms/1doS9Si

So how about a thread where we can post short funnies of GTA? They can be yours or they can be clips you've seen on YouTube, just post and be happy

installed the new patch, friends list has gone quick search of psn forums suggests that its a GTA5 problem, and signing in and out a few times seems to fix it. worked for me anyone else have this problem?

So who's looking forward to this then? Have a trailer: ------ Personally, I'm not too bothered, but if they manage to bring the same level of gameplay back as GT3, then I'll be all over this. GT5 was a massive disappointment for me, probably because it was delay after delay, only to be handed a game that felt unfinished, with only a percentage of the cars being premium, the sounds were crap, to name but a few things. I'm fairly certain that this was mainly because we spent years building up hype whilst they tweaked and tuned, only for someone in their PR department to pull the plug and tell Polyphony to release it fast. Due to that, things that were still in the works were rushed off and we got a disappointing game as a result. This is also the 15th anniversary game of Gran Turismo. How the years have flown by, it seems like just a couple of years ago that I sat in awe looking at those square wheels on the original Playstation. Make it a good one Polyphony, and more importantly, make it on time. GT6 is for the PS3.

just seen that its a free download at the moment, 20 quid to non PS+ members

So I wanted to make a thread to talk about BF4. Everytime I see more videos on this game it makes me want it even more. But only on the PS4, of course. I just watched some sniping gameplay and the map looks great with the weather and all!

This may have been asked and answered before. If so, I'm sorry for not searching hard enough but can you help with the following questions If I buy a PS4 and link it to my PSN account can I still use my PS3 on that account (not at the same time)? If so, specifically on CoD:Ghosts would my stats, weapon unlocks, etc. update between machines? I'm thinking if I do buy a PS4 I want to keep the PS3 for gaming with friends who don't update. I realise I would have to get two copies of the game

How will you remember this generation of gaming consoles?
