Looking to buy a PS3. Want Rock Band 1 & 2, 2 Guitars, and Call of Duty World at War. Help!!?

May be...
  • I am in the market to have the following.

    80 gig PS3 that plays PS2 games

    Rock Band 1 and 2 (discs)

    2 Wireless Guitars that work on the Rock Band(s) and Guitar Hero games

    Drum Set

    Mic

    2 Dual Shock Controllers

    Call of Duty 4 or World at War



    So, I know this is going to get expensive so I dont want to make any mistakes in what I buy and what is compatable with what. Any help would be appreciated!! Looking to find the best way to buy (bundles, etc) all these items!
  • Okay I will answer where to find each item and the approximate price.

    The 80 zgigabite PS3 is easy to find... unless you want one that is compatible with PS2 games. The reason? None, Sony just stopped making Playstation 3's with PS2 playuback playability. Now for me this is no big deal. But for you it may be really important, if so then you have to buy from ebay or a similar site. Now, I'm not a big fan of ebay, but if you want any system with Playstation 2 playback power, then thats the only option. If you would be okay with no Playstation 2 playback then try any near by store that sells games (gamestop,target,walmart,best buy, etc.). The system will cost 400 dollars. Now this may seem like a lot but it is actually worth it! I own every major console, and this is the best! If you buy from ebay type in "Motorstorm Bundle". Type this in because the only 80 gig. PS3 with PS2 playback is the one that shipped with the motorstorm game. (It's a good game too). I suggest buying new from ebay.



    Now for Rock Band and Guitar Hero. Which is better? Rock Band (1 and 2), trust me I own both Guitar Hero World Tour and Rock Band 1 and 2. Now if you want to buy both games, then buy the Guitar Hero World Your Bundle pack with Guitar, Mic, Drums, and Game. This will cost about 180 dollars. They can be bought at any game seller. Next, buy 1 Rock Band Guitar and both the game disks (or which ever oone you want), the reason is because Guitar Hero World Tour instruments work with Rock Band (1 and 2). This will cost about 100 bucks. This will give you Rock Band 1 and 2, Guitar Hero World Tour, 2 guitars, a mic, and drums.



    If you are not intrested in Guitar Hero WOrld Tour, then get just the Rock Band 2 bundle pack for 180 dollars. This comes with a guitar, the disk, a mic, and drums. Then buy another guitar.



    The two controllers- one controller comes with the PS3, and is a dualshock. The other controller isn't bundled with anything so you have to buy a new one for about 50 dollars. They are found almost anywhere.



    To get either Call of Duty's try to shop at best buy because they have their games for 10 dollars cheaper if you buy it new. World at War is 50 and Modern Warfare is 40 dollars. These games are not avalible in any bundles.



    In all this is a great purchase and I tried to give you the best avalible bundles, the hardest thing to get will be a PS3 with backwards playability for the PS2. If you forget about the PS2 playback then everything can be found for around 680 dollars. (wow) This is a great system and enjoy the purchase.
  • I can't tell you much about games and controllers since I am not a gamer. I can tell you this,because I sell the systems, that if you are buying brand new, the new 80 gig is NOT backwards compatible. The original 60 and 80 gigs were. But since the release of the new 160 gig the new 80 gigs are not able to play the PS2 games!
  • GO TO WWW.EBAY.COM PROBABLY MIGHT BE EXPENSIVE BUT ITS WORTH IT I RATHER GET AN XBOX360 INSTEAD
