I picked it up last night. I have to say it is a beautiful game, but the controls take a lot of getting used to. The default button layout sucks and you have to tweak the sensitivity in order to make it more playable. Nevertheless its a good game, just not the end all be all shooter as some people are making it out to be. Oh and the one gun and pistol limitation sucks balls.

I've been playing Killzone 2 on the second most hard setting and its been a long, long process. Fighting that ATAC on the roof took me about an hour to finally get it right.

Everything action in this game is so slow and deliberate, which makes it more challenging, but I don't find it very realistic. Its too hard to keep a bead on the enemies when they are running. Otherwise its solid.

PS3 owners of Resident Evil 5 will find a special surprise waiting for them when comparing their Trophy info with friends. Capcom has (accidentally?) revealed information about the game's upcoming DLC through newly uploaded Trophies. The DLC appears to introduce a number of new online modes: Slayers, Survivors, Team Slayers, Team Survivors and Versus. It's not exactly clear what these modes entail, but they appear to be competitive modes. "Team Survivors" gives us hope that Capcom is working on a co-operative mode inspired by Resident Evil Outbreak Left 4 Dead.

Dude, i've been trying to get ahold of your aussie ass for like 3 days now. I sent you a PM on PSN and here. Anyway, I just got done beating it for the 2nd time, now i'm on 4-2 on veteran. I could beat it today/tomorrow for sure, then we can do a run through co op if you want. I got the gatling gun, it's pretty gay. The longbow is pretty cool once you get used to it, but the 2 things that take the cake are the 500mag and the triple barrel shotgun. I got the mag maxed out with inf ammo, working on the shotty now. Hit me up on AIM or PSN. My s/n is the same on everything.

I'm torn. Advent children just came out in JP on the 16th, and it comes with a playable demo of FFXIII (that is playable on any PS3). American release isn't until June and there will be no demo. Granted, there's really no point in owning both, but the JP version is about $70 shipped as where the US will be around half that.

Human Resources
04-19-2009, 12:37 PM
I'm sure Square Enix will find some other game to throw the FFXIII demo in once they get it localized (PS3 version of Last Remnant, perhaps?) -- From the videos, the battle system looks like something I'd need to see in English.

dalb3
04-19-2009, 01:43 PM
Yeah, I feel you about the fight system being in Japanese, but at the same time it's almost like a collectors issue. They have already made all the ones referred to as "first run" and once they're gone, they're gone. So part of me wants it for that.

But then again, who collects demos. Hopefully a 1080p rip of AC hits the net before June. Fuck it, I'll wait it out.

Sam From Salem
04-19-2009, 11:18 PM
does the fan wind up real loud before it powers itself down? mine would do it for a split second before powering off. this was due to overheating and i had to exchange it (it happened right out of the box). is yours one of the original 60 or 20 gig systems?

Optimus Fag
04-19-2009, 11:25 PM
the fan doesnt turn on, so maybe its fucked and its over heating. its a 40gig, about 16 months old. i know sooooooooooooooooo many people with ps3s, and of course mine has to be the one that fucks up. and its up to a 4 week wait for a repair. christ, there goes my life for a month. im playing a bluray on it now to see if that turns it off, cause its fine if its just sitting there doing nothing.


also, did any of you guys get silent hill? it only just got released here, censored of course, so im gonna import a copy when i have the cash. but is it worth it? im a huge fan but that last one kinda sucked.

That's definitely the issue. The fan should ALWAYS be on, but during games that require alot of processing power; i.e. bioshock, re5, COD, you should actually blatantly hear the fan kick into high gear.

well that is australian dollars if that makes you feel any better - it's only like 100-150 american dollars if sony has to fix it out of warranty

plus the failure rates for PS3's are ridiculously lower than the 360's so you're either going for scenario A - where most likely around 25-30% of all 360's break and you'll most likely have them fix it for free OR B - somewhere around 5% if that of PS3's break

Yeah dude It actually displays in full 1080p, no upscaling, no 720p. It looks fucking great, and if you got 5.1 hooked up to it the big daddy/bouncer/rosie's sound like a mix between death/cows. The sheer vibration of them shakes my coffee table, which definitely enhances the gaming experience.

Yeah, I know what you mean. It really doesn't matter 9 times out of 10, and the eye can't see a difference unless you're playing on a 40"+ and sitting rather close to it, like a foot or so away. I have a 42" and when playing bioshock I'm right up on that TV, and it looks so fucking smooth.

Not like http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y218/JennV1988/Two/DSCN2739.jpg or anything, but pretty godamn close.

sorry to burst your bubble dude but bioshock for PS3 is not native 1080p. It is 720p which is then upscaled to 1080p

there are very few PS3 native 1080p games (even MGS was natively sub-720p and gran turismo is more than 720 but less than 1080. Wipeout HD is native 1080p)

"Here is the official thread about the PS3 visuals:
http://forums.2kgames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=23044

I'm not sure where Picolo is getting his information from, but the PS3 native resolution appears to be 720P. As the official answer explains, the PS3 port has a slight "blur filter" applied to smooth out the framerates, so it may appear a bit softer in some areas. Perhaps you are mistaking this softness for a 680P native resolution?

To balance this out, more detail has been added to some of the textures, giving the PS3 port a nicer appearance in some areas compared to the 360 version.

You also get the exclusive Survivor Mode level of difficulty (which the 360 and PC do not have).

You also get access to exclusive Challenge Rooms which will be available next month as downloadable content (no details yet on pricing).

Finally, 28 professional game reviewers on Metacritic have given the PS3 version of BioShock an average score of 95/100! Does that sound like "not a good port at all" to you? "

flipp jacksOWNED

anyway, is this just ps3 related or does the 360 version have native 1080p for bioshock?

it's modern technology related. PS3 has a good 2-3x more native 1080p games than the 360 has. The issue is that these are basically 2-3 year old computers at this point and for the most part the technology just isn't there to pump out full 1920x1080 and still be able to move at 30-60 frames per second. Unless you're talking an xbox live arcade/PSN game or something that is relatively simple (ie tennis games, basketball games etc. where there isn't that much that needs to be rendered as opposed to something like killzone) you can't keep the framerate up. So generally what happens is there is a compromise between having a good framerate and a high resolution.

Which is how it should be because you'll notice frame rate differences FAAAAAAR sooner than you'll notice that the image is actually only 1280x1080p vs. full hd 1920x1080p as in gran turismo's case.

I'm pretty stoked for Muramasa Demon Blade. Odin Sphere was right up there with God Hand in the "great PS2 games that nobody played" category.

completely wrong.

xseed, who is well known in bringing over imports are publishing arc rise fantasia and little kings story (coming out june 23rd in the U.S). they were publishing muramasa as well, but lost the rights to ignition but are still releasing the game in september.

the conduit and punch out are obvious.

i dont know about tales of grace and there is a good chance monster hunter tri is coming over since its been released on the psp.

fucking big daddy's. seriously. such a pain in my balls. the first one, i actually killed with nothing but my wrench because it got stuck on the stairs. i should have got a trophy just for that.

do i have to get the bioshock dlc to be able to get the platinum trophy? also, what if you had the platinum trophy before they released the dlc, do they take it away?

DLC trophies dont count towards platinum, only the trophies it originally comes with. i have platinum in both bioshock, resident evil 5 and burnout but still only like 90 something % of the trophies.

Fucking awesome. I think all I have to do in order to get the re5 platinum is to actually beat it on the hardest difficulty. I have to beat the jill/whesker fight and the fight with the huge manjini. Can't do it by myself, and my friends suck at this game in comparison to these scenes. That's it, everything else is already beat. HELP ME GOZ, HELP ME!! How about, when I message you, you respond, eh?

goz, how hard is survivor mode in bioshock? im finishing the game on medium now, is it too big of a jump to go right to survivor for the plat trophy? i hear the first two stages are fucking brutal but get better once you get more plasmids and better weapons.

also, im saving all the little sisters on my medium run, how much more adam do you get when you harvest those little bitches?

Sony is preparing to launch VidZone, a free music video streaming service that will exclusively hit the PlayStation 3 this Summer. It'll be integrated into the XMB menu and will allegedly feature thousands of videos that won't cost a single thin dime to watch.

The bigwigs in charge claim that VidZone is "backed by several Major record labels as well as thousands of Independent labels", and will be available in the music section of the PS3's XMB menu. Users will be able to compile and save their own video library, which will feature custom playlists that can be stopped, skipped and rewound at leisure. PSP owners will be able to create these playlists on their handhelds as well, which will then be streamed on the PS3.

VidZone CTO Michael Russo says that VidZone will be "one of the world's largest collection of music videos, allowing consumers to stream what they want, when they want it."

In a late-game move Sony announced today they've acquired the publishing rights to Ghostbusters: The Video Game in Europe all Australia. This will make the title a PlayStation exclusive for the near future in those territories with other platforms getting the release "later this year." As it stands now the PS2 and PS3 versions of the game are set for a June 19 release to coincide with the 25th anniversary release of the original movie on Blu-Ray. A PSP version will follow in the Fall.


This doesn't effect NA versions of the game as of now, but that could change.

oh hey guys guess what?

well last night i was loading gta4 and it turned itself off. i almost head butted the tv. it did turn back on, but i freaked out and turned it off and went to bed.

just got up now and turned it on, and after like 5 minutes it turned off again. wasnt even playing anything. and of course, when i went to start it, YLOD. complete fucking bullshit.

the dudes that fixed it gave a 3 month warranty but they're obviously fucking useless, i dont think i can be fucked to send it away again. im thinking new console, but im fucking broke and wont be able to afford one for ages. and i was at 997 trophies this time, soooooo close to 1000. fuck this sucks. i take back anything i ever said about xboxs.

05-06-2009, 06:03 PM
That sucks bad, dude. This is the first case I've heard of this happening. Sounds like the console is just fucked, and it's best to start over. Yeah, I guess at least with Xbox consoles you KNOW they are going to fuck up from day one, but with PS3's you expect them to last forever.

Genuinly sorry to hear about that. See if they will refund (doubtfull) or cover shipping costs to and from, for them to look at it again. Couldn't hurt, worse comes to worse you'll be right back to where you started: with a fucked PS3.

Yeah, when machines/consoles don't have moving parts, that tends to help out alot as far as no wear-and-tear goes. My Atari2600 still works, too. What about how everyone used to blow in the cartridges every time, regardless of them needing it and we all had that one friend saying, "Dude that's bad for it!!!" Who's laughing now, playing Joust on a flatscreen? Not me...that's who, but I could! OH, I'M GONNA!!!!

all good guys. fortunately, it was a "lightning strike" which caused it to blow up, so goz gets a brand new ps3 through insurance. which also means i get a new free dualshock i can sell, an 80gb hard drive i can sell, and still got my old broken console to sell. things didnt work out so bad.

Infamous review
http://ps3.ign.com/articles/981/981734p1.html
9.5 Presentation
This city is alive and you'll feel like you're a critical part of it from start to finish. The easy to upgrade powers, story-expanding Dead Drops, and more wrap you up in the experience.

8.5 Graphics
The city looks great with its destroyed buildings and people dying in the streets. Cole's powers dazzle at times, but there is some pop-in, repetitive environments, and framerate dips.

8.5 Sound
The soundtrack is great, the ambient noise of the city makes you feel like you're there, and the sound effects are solid. Still, why is Cole's voice soooo gravely?

9.0 Gameplay
Cole's powers are stunning and fun, but the real joy is zipping around the city and unraveling the story. I could've gone for a few more enemy types and better Stunt explanations.

9.5 Lasting Appeal
It took me about 25 hours to go through both storylines, but I've put in a total of 30 hours searching for Blast Shards and my Platinum Trophy. All that, and this still isn't old.

9.2 Outstanding
