I got a 20gb all black launch ps3, still got no probs. I got the home beta a while back and it's still gay...if I wanted to play pool and shit I'd load up my wii, but it's a cool concept, I guess.
Man I aint got shit for impressive trophies, I mean a shitload of bronze/silver on LBP/mirrors edge/wipeout/PoP, but definately no platinum yet. I tried getting all the trophies on wipeout and just said fuckit it's way too time consuming.

don't try to act like the defective rates of the 360 is approaching any number near a comparable one to ps3 failures.
xbox 360 failure rate is estimated to be like 25-33% whereas i've never seen an estimate of ps3 failure rate be more than 1-2%
if any other product had a quarter of the units stop working people would stop buying it, no matter if it was replaced for free or not. If my 360 goes out on me again now that it's out of warranty theres no way in hell that i'm buying another one

PLAYSTATION®HOME BETA SERVICE WILL BECOME AVAILABLE TO ALL PLAYSTATION®3 USERS ON DECEMBER 11
Highly Anticipated Service Open For All PLAYSTATION 3 Users
Tokyo, Foster City, London, December 10, 2008 – Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCE) today announced that its highly anticipated PlayStation®Home Beta service for PLAYSTATION®3 (PS3™) will become available for all PS3 users around the world *1 on December 11, 2008. Following the successful completion of the closed beta service, PlayStation Home’s open beta service will continue to evolve with new features and functionality.
PlayStation Home is a ground-breaking 3D social gaming community available on PS3 that allows users to interact, communicate and share gaming experiences. By leveraging the power of PS3, PlayStation Home delivers overwhelming visual graphics and rich gaming social experiences only possible on the PS3 platform. Within PlayStation Home, users can create and customize their own unique avatars and explore the virtual community in real time where they can communicate freely through text or voice chat. PlayStation Home users will not only be able to enjoy variety of entertainment content such as mini-games, videos and special events along with their friends, but will also be able to create their own community by using the “Club*2” feature to create clubs with other PlayStation Home users who share the same interests. PlayStation Home also allows groups of users to launch directly into their favourite online games together from PlayStation Home.
PlayStation Home, available as a free download*3 starting December 11, will launch directly from the PlayStation Home icon on the PlayStation®Network column of XMB™ (XrossMediaBar) on PS3. Users will be able to experience basic features and services of PlayStation Home, free of charge*4. PlayStation Home will allow open interaction among users, business partners, Kotaku press releases and SCE, and will evolve with additional features including dedicated game spaces, special events and exclusive themed items, to further enrich the entertainment experience on the PS3 platform.
“PlayStation Home is truly a promising network community service on the PlayStation platform, made possible with the powerful combination of PS3's overwhelming computational power and PlayStation Network that covers many countries around the globe,” said Kazuo Hirai, President and Group CEO, SCE. “We are committed to providing PS3 users with exciting gaming experiences with PlayStation Home and together with our partners and users, expand the new world of interactive entertainment as we move forward.”
For users accessing PlayStation Home in the Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) regions, themed virtual environments will be available to explore. Starting with a themed Far Cry 2 space, PlayStation Home will offer game inspired environments that allow people to discuss the specific games, plan strategies and access content and clues that will enhance the gaming experience. The number of gaming environments such as this will regularly increase, with spaces for Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune™, Warhawk™, Motorstorm and SOCOM following very soon. SCEE is working with leading publishers such as: Electronic Arts, UBISOFT, Midway, Sega and Atari to create engaging environments that will provide users with an on-going gaming experience.
“We are very excited to be bringing PlayStation Home to Europe and the PAL territories, offering users an interactive, social, gaming experience,” said Daniel Hill, Home Service Manager, SCEE. “PlayStation Home is unique to anything else in the gaming world and by partnering with both global and regional gaming and non-gaming brands, we are able to offer exciting and entertaining content that will enhance the PlayStation experience.”
SCEE today also announced the first partnerships with some of the world’s most respected lifestyle brands for the Open Beta. Fashion leader Diesel, contemporary furniture designers Ligne Roset, energy drink Red Bull, film studio Paramount Pictures and video content providers Hexus TV and Eurogamer are the first on board. They will offer resident’s virtual clothing for their avatar, virtual furniture for their PlayStation Home apartments, exclusive video content and a virtual flying challenge: the Red Bull Air Race.
Visitors and residents will be able to explore PlayStation Home with their avatar character and, thanks to Diesel, avatars can look great from the start with Diesel offering the latest men’s and women’s designer avatar clothing, with items ranging from free of charge to €1.50. So for those visiting PlayStation Home, they can dress their avatars in the latest jeans and jacket prior to getting out and about.
On the home front, PlayStation®Home gives everyone their own apartment to spend time in and entertain friends - who will now be able relax on exclusive Ligne Roset furniture. At the virtual store, people will be able to choose from a selection of the most popular Ligne Roset designs, including the iconic Togo and Facett upholstery collections. It will be possible to personalise furniture by selecting from a wide selection of fabrics and leathers allowing a unique and individual look. This is an opportunity to get acquainted with Ligne Roset’s cutting edge designs created by some of Europe’s most talented designers.
As the very first consumer brand space, Red Bull has created the Red Bull Island where visitors to the Island can interact and take part in many of Red Bull’s unique events. Initially there will be the opportunity to get inside the cockpit of a Red Bull Air Race plane and compete against the PlayStation community. The real-world Red Bull Air Race World Championship has become a global phenomenon in just four years, attracting millions of spectators. Now those spectators can leave the stands, become a pilot and tackle the Red Bull Island course themselves. The Red Bull Island will continue to expand, adding new and exciting content in early 2009.
Taking full advantage of the PlayStation Home Theatre, SCEE has partnered with various content providers to enhance the cinematic experience. Offering a wide range of content, the PlayStation Home Theatre will provide lifestyle technology programming from Hexus TV, gaming content from Eurogamer and exclusive film content from Paramount Pictures. Starting with the release of the highly anticipated film, Watchmen, Paramount Pictures International will use PlayStation®Home to promote its latest films. Initially, PlayStation®Home residents will be able to view an exclusive video greeting from Watchmen Director Zack Snyder as well as the latest Watchmen trailer. A selection of virtual Watchmen merchandise e.g. T-Shirts with the smiley face logo, Doomsday clocks and character statues, will also be available in the New Year, ahead of an exclusive Q & A event where cast and filmmakers will meet selected press and competition winners fans within the Watchmen themed environment.
PlayStation Home is exclusive to PS3, free to download and easy to join. It’s the ultimate online community – a place where you can meet friends, try the latest games, hear new music, watch videos, relax in the apartment of your dreams and much, much more. With more and more spaces being created and partners like Diesel, Ligne Roset and Red Bull coming on board, the PlayStation Home experience is just getting started.
SCE will vigorously promote the expansion of the world of PS3 by introducing new services that will open up new possibilities and enjoyment in interactive entertainment.
*1 PlayStation Home will not be available in some regions.
*2 To be a “Clubhouse” owner, user will need to buy the entitlement to run the club.
*3 When the service is available, PlayStation Home icon will appear after booting/ re-booting the PS3 system. To enjoy PlayStation Home, users will need broadband network connection and PlayStation Network account in addition to the PS3 system.
*4 Some content and services are charged.

i'm sure it'll be a work in progress throughout the rest of the ps3's life. I'd imagine that this generation is all leading up to playstation 4 where they have a better version of home/online presence and have learned from their mistakes.
and blu-ray drives won't be so ass-rapingly expensive then as well

I got a BDRE drive for $250 over 6 months ago, and it came with 2 sony brand BDRE discs that I have reused dozens of times. Only shit that's expensive are the BDR discs for single time uses, but that will fall soon considering Bluray is now the only HD disc in current production.

Yeah dude this seems like the coolest shit since you can play anything xvid/divx/vob/m2ts

No shit. All you can really do is decorate a room and play pool/bowling with people and single player games that are equivalent to games on a blackberry (brickbreaker/some ice game/Crappy version of monochrome). I haven't been on Home for months.

yeah, NOW they aren't quite as expensive. I'm talking about at launch of the ps3 when it was $600 dollars and regular stand alone blu-ray players were about $1000. If playstation 3 launched at $400 it would be in a LOT better shape than it would be today
so by the time another playstation will come out (which i'd assume will be 2011-2012 ish) not only will blu-ray drives be super cheap, but the cell chip will be super cheap as well. Supposedly they designed the cell to be used in tandem with more cell chips so add two more cell's to a playstation 3 and bam you have a 3x more powerful playstation. An example of this theory is Gran Turismo 5 Prologue Running At 240 FPS , 3840x2160 Resolution by using 4 regular playstation 3's (http://kotaku.com/5093592/gran-turismo-5-prologue-running-at-240-fps--3840x2160-resolution)

I put a preorder on it like 3 months ago, not knowing the release date, It comes out Oct 09.

nope it's like gears of war in the jungle but instead of aliens you're shooting various minority pirates. throw in a LITTLE bit of exploration and a LITTLE bit of easy puzzle solving and that's uncharted
plus it has, like, the best console graphics ever. the animations are amazing and the voice acting/facial animations are some of the best out there that at this point, and was only beaten by metal gear or MAYBE heavenly sword in my opinion

According to Meant to be Seen, "the world's first and only stereoscopic 3D Certification and Advocacy group," Sony "fully intends" on supporting 3D stereoscope technology next year. What does mean? It means the PS3 will be able to render an image which will appear to be 3D using special glasses. This kind of technology is most commonly found in movie theaters that present 3D movies.
3D stereoscopic technology will be implemented in both movies and games, according to MtbS. A simple firmware update is all that's needed to make this incredible tech possible on the PS3. In fact, the firmware update "may be unique to Sony PS3 versus the other console solutions." Intriguing.
A video explaining the technology can be seen after the break.
[Thanks, Heavytoka!]

wii remotes use infrared.
I meant the connection between the wiimote and the wii (activation/registration of controller) is all done with bluetooth. That's why you can hook a wiimote up to your computer with a bluetooth dongle
then why can't you use universal remotes with the wii boris

Apparently, EA released a game with an "easter-egg" function for the wii that was compatible with it, but I never saw any results.

Man you have no idea how much I'd hyped up this game up in my head as to how awesome and fun it would be. I absolutely loved the demo, but it was the complete opposite once I actually got my hands on the full version. I think maybe with more time to work on the combat system it would have been more enjoyable, but the controls were just way too clunky with regards to fending off guards. I forced myself to finish it, but I don't think I'd ever play it again. Sorry for dishing out a plate of harshbrowns on it, but that is one of the most unenjoyable gaming experiences of my life. I still do enjoy the demo though.
Furious Law
01-29-2009, 08:30 AM
The combat was crap, I'll agree.
I got lost in the Time Trials though, and though it sounds like the thought of even feeding that disc to your PS3/360 turns your stomach, you may want to give that a shot. There's no combat. I can't even begin to estimate how many times I tried to make that bugged jump to get three stars on "The Office." I found it really addicting and the ability to download ghost data and run along side it is phenomonal.

just be careful with the screws, they are really really tiny and supposedly strip very easily. I actually went to sears and bought a tiny screw driver so it was no issue at all, but if you took a normal driver to it you may have issues

now i haven't played it yet so I can't judge it on my own, but to my understanding this was a deliberate choice to make it control like this. The "sluggishness" is supposedly meant to convey a real sense of weight in both the players actions and the weight of holding a gun. So you can't jump over and over and over like in call of duty or be some ridiculous super soldier who can turn on a dime and whatnot.
i'm sure it's something you'll get used to. I'm looking forward to trying it out, but then again i didn't really think that the last one was quite as bad as everyone made it out to be, it was much more limited by the platform that it was released on than anything.

Played through the demo, graphics are pretty impressive, AI seems to be pretty good, but its fairly short so hard to get a good gauge on it. Reviews so far have said that the single player is going to be pretty short, so this may be a rental but it will probably be a pretty amazing once through.

oh and they're adding multiplayer, how fucking cool does this mode sound: (http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3171671)
a "Pitch Black" mode that puts players in an arena that's, well, pitch black. One character will play as Riddick himself, who can see in the dark, moves more quickly than other players, and uses a blade. The other players have guns and flashlights, but are severely hampered by the lack of visibility. If a player manages to kill Riddick, they become Riddick for the next round.

I haven't played that killzone demo, do I still have to do that "I live in EU, here's my address" bullshit, to get it?

Yeah only way to get it is to setup a European PSN account, which takes like 3 minutes to do. Just set your region to UK and then enter a hotel address from somewhere in London and you are good to go.

I'm still heartbroken at how much I hate the resident evil 5 demo. I loved resident evil 2 and 4, but man, even with a couple more passes on those controls and the gameplay, i couldnt muster up any love for it. It's far too outdated and backwards to really enjoy.
Also, Dai, you are the ultimate Skate 2 cockblocker. Every time I owned one of the spots in the game it gloated your higher score to me.

yeah i played the resident evil demo twice and i said fuck that
to be honest, EA of all people made a better horror game controls with dead space. Those controls are perfect for this sort of a game and if they just copped it completely the resident evil demo would have been sooooo much more fun
making something difficult because of a cumbersome control scheme is creating bullshit challenge that is a sign of a lazy developer who 1. doesn't want to move towards the future 2. is to lazy to make better enemy AI rather than just throw a whole bunch of shit on screen and have a control scheme that says "you deal with it"
and for the record resident evil 4 is one of my favorite games ever. The demo for resident evil 5 just seemed so cheap to me, and representative of my least favorite part of resident evil 4 (the escorting the presidents daughter bullshit except now she has a gun and hogs the ammo/health packs)

It's still just a demo though, so lets hope they see all the feedback.

a demo for a game that comes out a month later? they don't have any time to change anything really unless they are going to patch it later with an update. I'd imagine it went gold probably around the same time that the demo was released

so I've been playing Rock Band 2 and I just dont see why its supposedly so much better than GHWT? I mean I like that you go to different cities and can get buses and planes and hire people and shit but the actual strumming mechanics/songplay...meh.

Charts, on disc song selection, and DLC.

can you expand on that a little for me? I'm trying to get the full experience before I decide on keeping it or sending it back. When you say charts, first thing I think of is the song rating system but I'm not sure if thats what you mean. Def dont know what "on disc song selection" is. I do agree that the DLC completely blows away GHWT though. I forgot to mention that before.

The note charts for the songs are challenging but aren't so overly complicated like GH where it just takes the fun out of playing the song.
The on disc song selection I'm referring to is comparing the on disc songs of RB against GH. There are maybe 3 or 4 songs that GH has that I wish were in RB but aside from that the rest are shit or repeats of what is already on RB.
Since Neversoft has taken over the GH franchise I have lost interest with each release. I'll still play them here and there on a rare occasion if the mood strikes me to play Hot For Teacher, but aside from that it usually just sits around collecting dust. I'm definitely going to be renting GH games from this point forward, I don't think I could ever bring myself to buy another one unless they turn it around.

Good stuff, Noleman, thanks. Hot for Teacher is the first song that came to mind when you mentioned some songs not on RB. So fun to play.

Yeah, that and Satch Boogie are pretty much the only reason I still own GHWT.

I was thinking they could get away with the majority of comic book related games too, most of those had games come out w/ or before the movie.

back to resident evil, my only real problem is they seem to have lifted all the weak sound effect from res evil 4 and just used them. that pistol sounds weak as fuck.
