I'm listening to the sounds of the game I'm beta-testing at work next to me.

Spookymuffin said:

Dude, when you said you work for a game company, I thought you meant GAME (store).

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

Well that's just stupid. Who wants to work in that shithole?

I get insider knowledge.

Spookymuffin said:

What tid-bits have you got for me today?

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

That Sony news I posted today is fresh.

Plus the PS3's graphics card has been underclocked because it was causing problems. Yet another downer from Sony.

On the plus side, Nintendo are solidly on target with the Wii - I'm sitting next to a Wiimote right now.

Spookymuffin said:

GOD DAMN! I want RED STEEL!!!!

So, is Linux going to be pre-installed on the PS3? Will there be anyway of "modding" (I seriously don't know what the fuck I'm talking about) the PS3 via Linux?

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

The PS3 runs an updated version of the PSP's operating system. Ugly as fuck as far as I can tell. Modding will be a nightmare since the second you plug your ps3 into an internet connection it will upgrade the OS to the latest (and therefore less-moddable)version automatically. Knowing Sony "bugfixes" (read: Stop-people-playing-illegal-game-fixes) will be out all the time, just like with the PSP.

Spookymuffin said:

So, in your opinion, should I

a: get a PS3

b: upgrade my sound system and be content with my 360 and possibly get Wii?

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

B - all the way with no doubts. Look at the PS3's launch lineup and see if there are any games you truely feel you must get that are totally exclusive to the PS3. I guarentee you'll at most find 1. Perhaps 0.



I mentioned it above, but did you know that 90% of demos for PS3 games are running on Xbox360s because people can't get them running on PS3s.

Spookymuffin said:

Okay, I'll wait (for a very long time) until there's a PS3 price drop. If however, PS3 lives up to the hype, I will make a hungry dog jerk you off

GaryTheNoTrashCougar said:

I do hope the PS3 is good. But it won't be any good for bordering-on-illegal stuff.

It's definitely the sexiest.

wait a minute!!!
are you trying to tell us the PS3 is going to be a big bucket of shite?

muirdo said:

Maybe not a big bucket, but certainly a bucket.

We have a 360 down in the living room with about 12 games, I think. Deadrising was definitely my fiance's favorite of the ones we own or have rented. I'm partial to sports games, myself. Or, you know, button-mashers.

The Wii should be cool....

Spookymuffin said:

Ur sitting next to a Wii-mote??!!

what game are u invloved in??!

Arrrggghhh!! damnit i know you 'wont be able to say'...

And yes the PS3 is turing into quite the stinky pile o'...

Seems like this is make or break for Sony.

Well, I won't be buying a PS3 if I can't head down to Phanthip and buy 3 games for $5. There's no way I can afford to pay for the genuine thing, especially after getting used to buy every game I want for 3 years and even games I'm not sure I want (I'm talking to you, Terminator 3, you utter pile of steaming crap you).

Y did you buy that game??? Didn't you see the warning on the front? Its called the Atari logo...

xperience319 said:

Did they make the 'Driver' games too though? They weren't too bad. Basically, between my friend and I, we've bought far too many ps2 games over the last couple of years. Some real crap, but for the price it's worth taking the chance just in case a game is actually quite good. I do check 'em out on Gamespot and 1up too, of course.

Fauxie said:

Well if mediocre is your thing...go for it...Atari/Activision/EA/THQ must you!

xperience319 said:

Hey, I like EA. I love the Tiger Woods series.

Oh but which one?

Soo many exciting innovative entries into this franchise! How to choose!

Tiger Woods '99
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2000
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2001
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2002
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2004
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2005
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2006
Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007

xperience319 said:

Sure, EA love to milk a successful franchise, but for me buying copies it's ok. I like 2005 and so naturally bought 2006, which hadn't changed much, but was slightly better. For me, it's perfect. Same with Fight Night and to a lesser extent the NBA games. If I had to pay full price I wouldn't buy the new one each year because they don't change that much, I agree.

STUNNING GAG!

Just finished Quake 4.

Spookymuffin,

What are you working on for wii!??? Please tell Me!!

I only play mario games with my mates these days (or sometimes, my dad bless him)


Mario tennis for the n64. Ahhh, not thats a good 2-4 player game.

Since the night days ago when I bought the system and the game, I haven't used it.

I keep waiting for a day where I have alot of time on my hands and I feel really good to try to tackel that game.

Plus the same day I went to the used video game store and picked up a used copy of O-B-1 Kanobie from the starwars game series for the regular xbox. I'm a real bitch for StarWars Games.
