Prae and Ploid, I am going to try to set up my ps3 for net use tomorrow. Mostly I'm on FFXI so I haven't rly set it up.

Prae we shall play some Resistance against one another. It shall be pwn, though I haven't played in like 3 months so take it easy on me :>

[Praetor]

lol - i usually play on the weekends. I have FF at my house and the PS3 at the GFs house.

MGS4 will hopefully, as did SoL, reform this type of shooting game. I was largely unimpressed with Snake Eater. Having to crawl around so goddamn much and change camo was neat at first, but then it quickly became an annoyance. Also finding food was retarded. I also remember failing miserably at that one part where you are floating down the river because I didn't know I could check my inventory at the end for like the first 5 times I beat the level. I can't wait for this shit to come out, and I'll be fkn first in line to get it when it does. Does anyone know the setting yet? A city setting would prolly be the most pwn of all :>

I've been thinking about buying the new PSP and now that you can use remote play to connect PSP to PS3, but I was wondering if a UK PSP will work with a US PS3? Because I'm not paying $1000 for a PS3 and that's the price in UK.

About the PSP is actually cheaper to buy it in EB or Gamestop and send it to the UK for like $15, only thing is that it will be gay paying $15 and wait like 1 week everytime I want to buy a game.

PSP games are region free, the movies aren't.

[Knyght]

PS3 Touch Sense rumble sixaxis controller:

"Big shocker at today's Electronic Arts pre Tokyo Game Show press event. While playing a demo of Burnout Paradise, we felt something that we never thought we'd feel from a PS3 controller -- shake!"

http://ps3.ign.com/articles/821/821010p1.html

During the Uncharted gametrailers footage a help menu pops up showing the analog.

Why is it that when help pops up, the analog stick icon shows a very small, sharper stick than we have now? omg

What do you think?

Personally I don't care for rumble but I guess it's interesting, and use up even more power from the battery heh /off.

I don't have time to look for xbox and wii stuff. You guys do that. I'm still looking for ps3 stuff for personal reasons as always.

PSP games are region free, the movies aren't.

U serious? But how come PS2/PS3 games are not region free for the NTSC/PAL thing

[Risbyn]

I'm not sure why Gilean, but I have an original Japanese PSP when it first came out and I can play EU/NA/JP games on it np. Same with my wife's NA PSP.

[Gilean]

Oh fuck! Then I should buy somehow the FFVII PSP bundle limited edition just for japan.

[Ploid]

PS3 games are region if you play on hdtv. Won't have to worry about ntsc and pal. lolStandard def

[Ploid]

A game that looks like FFXI for PS3. Has ridill attacks and weaponskill looking combos you do (air juggle and such). Graphics looks super.

Download, or just watch the stream.

For xbox 360 there is some new footage and info floating around for Lost Odyssey. 4 disks makes it seem like a epic game (ff7 good times).

Finally got a HDTV a few days ago. Getting ready for the stream of fall and winter games (half life orange box, rachet and clank future, uncharted for me). I had a time trying to calibrate my tv to my liking (bright, contrast, sharpness). I thought it would be hard to physically set up, and I would have to pay a load of money to get everything connected (hdmi box thingy that cost like $300 to split audio and hdmi video) but all I needed was a HDMI cable which I got for free hah (getting sound cables after I get 5.1/7.1 for mgs4. TV has optical out sound port). At first I wasn't sure I liked it for games (oblivion's AA (ie jaggies) come out of the woodwork. Standard definition tv hides the jaggies), but after playing other better made games on it I can't go back. Resistance looks like a champ. The image quality is very nice (insomniac are pretty skilled), but oh man Heavenly Sword blew me away in HD... just insane. Cant wait to play more games now.

FFXI PS2 sux in HD on ps3. It looks like when I take those screenshots. Regular tv makes it look so good. Also it don't fill the screen, I hate the black borders on the side more than letterboxed borders.

viva la HD gaming!

where did u steal dat 1 frum?

[Lolmy]

What do you say when you see your TV floating in the air in the middle of the night?

Is my house haunted???

[Ploid]

where did u steal dat 1 frum?

Funny you mentioned that safer. I got a 10% employee discount by getting a person that worked in the store to use his card for me. Saved a lot of cash. Could get a game with the money I saved. I'm always going to bribe a employee to let me use his/her card when I buy something expensive like this in best buy or something. Free money is always good.

Edit; Amy I'll change my sig but I've been too lazy to open photoshop to make the new ones.

I'll be in sky soon, gotta make some burgers. Will be fast.

[Aemora]

SAN D'ORIA LOL!

[Yorke]
