View Full Version : Hi, Papa Johns? I'd like a PS3 with pepperoni and extra cheese

Yes, you can now order a pizza directly from your PS3 so you don't have to get off your lazy butt and interrupt your RB gaming session! :)

Now if we could just teach our dogs how to open the door and pay the pizza guy...
That reminds me of a joke:
Q: How do you get a guitarist off your front porch?
A: Pay him for the pizza.

It's not done from the store. It's done from the browser. Try actually reading the page I linked, it says that on the very first line ;)
I would totally do this.

Papa Johns are in like 3 states I think... Michigan is one. They have underrated pizza.
Also, I felt the same when they showed Sonic commercials around here when there wasn't one even in the state... now I think there are 2.

Papa John's is the second best pizza, just behind Pizza Hut's pan pizza. I can order Domino's through my TiVo (PUKE) or I can order Papa John's from my PS3 now? EXCELLENT! :D

It's okay, you're not missing out on much. The crust is nasty which is quite a deal breaker for me. Also they throw in those peppers in the box, so your pizza tastes and smells like peppers.

1) Pan crust FTW.

My only real beef with Papa Johns is that their founder is a Ball State alum, but everyone makes mistakes, no? :)

Hmm...This might have tipped me from buying 360 to buying PS3 if I had to upgrade from the Wii. Full selection RBN and no wait for new song release vs. pizza while I'm in the game (?)...it's a no-brainer. :)
I already order Papa John's because of that deal with the 25 cent large cheese pizza with a menu price 2-topping. And since extra cheese can count toward that, I'm good to go. People who eat anything on pizza besides pepperoni and cheese are not from this planet.
Yeah, Pizza Hut Pan and Stuffed Crust (not Stuffed Crust Pan, though) are better, but not $9 better for two pizzas ($15.16 for my typical Papa John's order vs $24 and change for my typical Pizza Hut order). Little Caesar's went down the toilet when they made everything Hot-N-Ready. I hate those so much I started an online petition: http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/nohotnready/ and Domino's is just meh.

No way. The crust is amazing when you use the garlic butter with it. I still think Pizza Hut's pan crust is better (breadsticks anyone?), but Papa John's is a very good alternative since Pizza Hut doesn't deliver to my house.

And truth be told, some of the best food in the country comes from restaurants that look like crap. Dreamland Ribs in Tuscaloosa, for example, is literally a shack, but has some of the best ribs you will EVER eat.

No, you’ve mistaken my post as purely humor. (Curse my sarcasm!)
I understand mom and pop restaurants have the best food, I’ve got nothing against hole in the wall restaurants.
But the local Pizza huts are roach motels. Couple that with the diaper clad babies, covered in pizza sauce, that have been turned loose by their excessively pizza enriched mothers… and all I have to say is no thank you.

And what does that have to do with ordering pizza? If you're getting it delivered, does it matter what the families are doing in the restaurant? I mean, if your local franchise makes crappy pizza, then ok. But if it's just the people in the restaurant you don't like, your point is... pointless.

Everybody has different tastes in pizza, it seems like. My personal favorite around here is a local place, not even one of the chains (they only have two locations); some people love it, some people absolutely hate it, even among my circle of friends.

Haha, we're exact opposites. I think Domino's tastes like greasy cardboard, while Pizza Hut is little slices of heaven.
We disagree.

Definitely. My favorite pizza ever I can no longer have. It was up in TN and it was AMAZING. Unfortunately, there's no great little pizzerias anymore in my home town. The only one (Mando's) had amazing pizza, lasagna, and spaghetti, but closed down a while back for some reason :(

You can access the XMB while playing a game. During a song in RB2 it actually pauses the game. However if you choose to open the internet browser it will require you to close the game.

I personally can't stand any of the "fast food" pizza places. I think they pretty much all taste terrible. I'm a big fan of small mom & pop shops for my pizza, or local Italian restaurants. They tend to focus more on local products (cheeses, sauce ingredients, meats, etc.) which only goes back into your community and ultimately makes it taste a 1,000 times better. At least, to me.
That being said, Pizzeria Regina in Boston is to frickin' die for.

I'm well aware of that. That was my intention for pointing out that it said system browser, and not web browser. If it's in the XMB, it may not require you to exit the game. From a usability standpoint, I don't see why they would purposefully make it so that you DO have to exit the game. It just doesn't make sense.

When people in your area can't get a phone order right half the time, online ordering is a godsend.
Not to mention I pay for darn near everything with a debit card, and there are some things (the card number, for instance) I would rather not be sharing over the phone with whatever aspiring felon happens to be answering phones that evening :)
