Oh man, heavenly sword is so rad.
Looks incredible, feels amazing and I can't wait.

Also I rented Transformers and played it for about 15 minutes before I almost threw it in the garbage.
It is one of the worst games I've ever played.

Filler Inc.

I have one, but no PSN name yet.

IpseDixit

Joke option buy a PS3, and extra controllers, and an HDTV, and a house is welcome.

#pipe

I run mine through a home theatre projector and it looked pretty shit.
then I got component cables and it looks so sexy oh my gosh.

The HS demo is so short, but so much fun.

#pipe

also I am so sad that my guitars don't work.
I went to play some John the Fisherman last night and it wouldn't run the guitars properly, even with the adapter thing I bought and I almost cried.

Warhawk lands on Tuesday.

Oh man Warhawk.

Warhawk is gonna be great.

You guys, Warhawk.

Uh has anyone played it? (beta...)

#pipe

What's warhawk

it sounds like a futuristic, high tech, intelligent helicoptor that fights crime with the help of an idealistic rookie cop.

This would make a great game

IpseDixit

That's why I still have my PS2, guitar hero and all the saves on my memory cards.

Orikaeshigitae

i have a ps3

i am a fag

also, my psn name is orikae

but i am not on usually since i cannot afford buying games for both the ps3 and the pc

jwalk

PS3, $499 (20gb)
extra controller $50
fucking PS2 memory card reader $15
BT remote $25
160GB hd $100
ultra-sexy BT keyboard uhh $165 *cough* but oh man is it sexy
BT headset $75

T = uh $930

thanks a lot Sony now I'm sucking dicks in the Olive Garden etc etc..

IpseDixit

Warhawk looks fun, but my internet connection is so unstable I don't know if I'll get it. It'll be going blazing fast, then all of a sudden its slower than 56k.

Orikaeshigitae

165?

jwalk

Orikaeshigitae

that is a nice keyboard

but not two hundred dollars nice

i thought my keyboard was expensive and it was less than half what yours cost

jwalk

Warhawk is Warhawk

$60 for the Blu-ray version, comes with a BT headset (Jabra).

Or $40 for the PSN download version.

are you using a wireless network

Wireless ISP to a wireless router, wirelessly to the PS3.

Yah it's kind of unstable.

Also whenever the PS3 logs on to the PS Network it causes my AIM to disconnect.

i dunno i had that problem with my internets and it just turned out my NETGEAR wireless card was shitty

jwalk

I'm using about 25 feet of cat6, 100base, to my Linksys router. Works great. I have the 20gb so no wi-fi, not like I'd use it anyway. Wired is sooo much better for games.

Also using WMP11 media sharing to share music, videos, etc... from 2 different PCs in the house.

My PSN ID is "Walk2k" but my friends list is almost full (f'ing 50 limit) so don't expect a lot of adds unless you play Rainbow 6 Vegas or Warhawk.

Wren

cocks?

IpseDixit

I'd probably need around 30-40 feet of ethernet cable to get from my router to my PS3 plus I'd have to drill a couple of holes in the cieling. I might just do that since it is slightly faster and more stable than wireless.

jwalk

Yeah when I moved into my new house I first planned to put the PC upstairs in the spare bedroom, and I would have to drill holes for the ethernet, etc... but then I was like "wtf I don't wanna go upstairs to use the computer" so I put it in the living room. Bonus is I can watch TV while on the computer.

IpseDixit

Well the PS3 and the router are on the same floor, but there's a hallway and a couple of walls seperating them, so the cable would have to go up and over, down into my closet, snake around the room, to the PS3.

jwalk

Well, you can run that with cat6, which is cheap and good to 200 feet or so?

Or another idea is, if there is a phone plug and/or cable tv (if you use DSL/cable for internet) in the room where the PS3 is, put the router there, and use wireless for the PC instead.

Zoolander

man that bioshock, its so awesome, right guys

Zephyr

i think you hit the wrong thread

or maybe

the right one

jwalk

I DL it 2 days ago, haven't touched it.

Probably play some tonite.

Bogey

Me am Bogestrom.

#pipe

Dudes I read the FAQ and I'm totally picking up warhawk.

Also I am terrible at setting up networks and was having enough trouble doing so with a hardline that I gave up and went back to wireless.

Defender

When MGS4 comes out I am likely going to have to get one. Hopefully at Christmas there will be another price drop. Then it will be relatively painless.

Wren

I hope you get tentacle raped by that tentacle guy

jwalk

The 20gb was on blowout $399 at my EBstop when I was there a couple weeks ago.

That's a chick. Do you ever pay attention to anything? I mean, why bother watching the trailer if you're not even looking?

I watched the shaky cam video that was released before the direct feed one. it had a small resolution and terrible picture quality. I did not see any boobs anywhere

I still hate buying large single player games on steam. its not like Im saving any money. its like they save a bunch of money and pass the savings onto not me. lame

Defender

But you don't have to go to a store, so that's nice.

More importantly, the low-cost delivery may not pass savings to you, but it may enable more indie developers to get games out there, which may greatly improve the pool of games that you can play.

Wren

I don't know, the bigger games are getting and with my connection not getting any faster, it'll get to the point where I might as well go to the store.

and I have no problem with it being great for indie gamers. thats totally cool. I mean, I haven't played any indie games besides free mods for games, but plenty of other people seem to like them.

its just like, at least charge 5 dollars less maybe, you huge money hungry corporations you?

jwalk

I saved a couple nickels not having to pay sales tax, anyway.

Of course it means the schools can't run the heat in the winter, but fuck em. Toughen up them kids, I say.

jwalk

bloody fucking hell I have that classic bug where it fucks with my desktop's gamma after quitting a game.

what the hell is wrong with nvidia... every card and every driver of their's that I've used in the last 8-9 goddamn years gets this bug.... christ fix it already. have to f'ing reboot to fix it.. no amount of fucking with the color controls gets it back to normal...
