PS3 Usernames? Options

[j0e_p3t]

to me... the mgs series has always felt like a movie where i have control over the main character. so the cutscenes can be pretty lengthy but are necessary for the story. plus they're not all talk and really awesome to watch. i don't know the actual lengths of each of the cutscenes, but i think i remember reading in a review that the longest one is like 30 mins? i don't know if i've seen that one yet cuz that last thing i look at is the clock when i'm playing this game. next thing i know, half the day has gone by.

i finished mgs4. awesome game. the final boss fight with liquid was pretty freakin sweet. and the boss fight with vamp was fun too. i wasted so much ammo and health before i figured out how to kill him. and the boss fight with screaming mantis was a lot like fighting psycho mantis from mgs1... except no controller port to switch and what-not so you also have to think about that fight. now i just gotta play it a hundred more times before i get tired of it. and not to mention online. definitely the game the ps3 was made for.

[manphibian]

Cool.

I'm not getting MGS yet though, i'm waiting till i have enough time to play it through.


Next up for me is the Olympics game It actually looks awesome!

I've been waiting for this since track and field in the 80's

[RickJamesBish]

Same as here! Glad to see there's more people playing PS3 than 360 here...I guess Celica owners just think alike in greatness lol

[stetsonaw]

[manphibian]

i'll have to find you when you are on!
edit: this is such crap!! sony took update 2.4 down, apparently because some idiots don't know how to let the installer finish, it's turning their machines into paperweights, so sony is "fixing" it.

[manphibian]

I really get tired of the idiots on the PS forums, they all seem fully retarded and all they do is complain. They demand in-game xmb for a year, then when it comes, all they do is complain about it before they've even used it!!!


Not sure what the deal is with the trophies thing, apparently most released games can be patched to work with them.... not many yet though.

I installed it fine yesterday and then used the machine for hours, no problems. in-game xmb works with everything i tried, all seems good to me

[stetsonaw]

those fanboys are hilarious, i was prolly looking at the same forum. it's a frickin gaming system lol. those kids, i mean people (cuz sadly a lot of those "fanboys" are middle aged) need to get lives, or celicas

[stetsonaw]

anyone got madden 09 yet?

[Supersprynt]

Yeah, it's hard. I'm 0-4 online, but 2 losses are because of my lousy network connection.

[stetsonaw]

so apparently there isn't trophy support, or voice chat (for madden or ncaa for that matter), so i sold mine and picked it up for 360, which obviously has achievements... sad because it would only take sony like half a day to program them in a patch (they said that, not me).

[Supersprynt]

There's always updates.

I never understood the use of achievements or trophies, whats the point? Just self satisfaction?

[j0e_p3t]

yeah, i never saw the big deal with the trophy update. i guess it just gives people bragging rights or what-not.

[stetsonaw]

eh, gives me something else to work for besides just beating the game... adds another challenge.
