Now that Best Buy has figured out that 39.99 is a bit too generous for the Warhawk bundle, I will be getting Warhawk and Puzzle Fighter tonight off PSN when I get home.
 
Whats with them dumping all the HS unlockables onto the psn?I know they want to promote it but seems weird. Damn I'm really feeling a game dry spell, I need new blood. Maybe some online tekken 5 will help.

Wowhawk?
 
Wait, wait, wait, fucking wait. Is Puzzle Fighter not being put up on the EU store this week?

If not, could I buy the US one without any problems?

I take it you too opted out of getting Warhawk?

edit: son of a... :lol
 
How about they unlock my fucking copy of Warhawk so I can play it per system and not per account.

Oh yeah, some demos too, please. :lol
 
does it bother anyone else that downloads don't continue while you're watching a DVD/BRD?


I wonder if this is something that can be fixed with a firmware?

It can be fixed, and I'm almost positive it will.
 
BobTheFork said:
LOL...wait were you serious? I can't tell in print





ok kidding, but I didn't like wowhawk (was in beta) and I'd rather have my 40 bux I think I've decided.

:O:O:O:O:O:O
Are you Kittonwy?

*raise hand*

Right here. I'd love to watch a movie or something while I wait for the stuff to download.

didn't hate it, but after all the disconnects the beta was bombed with I kind of lost interest and didn't play once they fixed it. I'd really like to know what all the balancing issues were because they needed to change up alot of damages I felt. I think I'm just sticking to resistance for my multiplayer fix untill TF2 comes out

Not kittonwy XD but i'm upset with his ban and I'm keeping the avatar warm until he gets back

I think it's a result of an earlier fix. Back when playback on DVDs and BD movies would have the odd hiccup, a half second freeze that was (I believe) related to the network card accessing PSN. To stop the freezes they just made it so you unlogged from PSN totally so they could shut off the network adapter during optical media playback.

In a perfect world I hope they fix it so that you no longer get logged out when watching movies. It would also be neat if your friends could see that you're either watching videos or listening to mp3s when you're on, ppl must wonder why my PS3 is on for a few hours doing nothing every night when I'm watching encoded movies or listening to podcasts. ;)


EDIT: why was kittonwy banned? I looked at his last half dozen posts and didn't see any epic meltdowns or anything, what caught him the banstick?

I liked it, even with the freezes, but I think the beta might have been enough for me. With UT3 so close and all...

He got banned?!? WHY???

He threw out a bunch of PC gaming stereotypes in the vicinity of a moderator that fancies PC gaming quite a bit.

You fail.

i dont have the link handy, its his last comment the NCsoft ps3 thread. Its really a not a post worth getting banned for, and certainly not for 5 days, but it was edited and I wasn't in the thread so i don't know the whole story.


EDIT: uh ^^^ hey jackass, did they change it and make it a different game after the disconnect problem? no? then the game I played and got bored with was still WarHawk?

I barely played the beta because I was so pissed off with it, even bored at times - the actual game is a ton better. Everything that I had a problem with in terms of balance was fixed, and there were even some unexpected graphical updates here and there. I honestly think it feels like a whole different game as I've actually enjoyed every minute spent with it so far. Unless 3rd-person isn't your thing, I highly suggest you give the game another chance - everything just feels so polished.

One thing I suggest is that you buy the BD version if you have anyone else in the house that wants to play on their own account off your system - still haven't gotten a response from my email, but the PSN version limits you per account rather than per system.

Whatever. They did change it, but it's quite obvious some people(i.e. you) can't take jokes, so good day.

I thought about it, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to chance the 40 bux trying the game out again. Also, I think right now I don't have the time for another dedicated multiplayer game. I still play resistance so much, and school as started again. If I wanted to give WH and time it deserves I don't know where I'd get the time.
 
Tekken 5 Online TODAY or no sale! Sept is going to be a wallet-breaking month.
 
Whats wrong? Release the GOD DAMNED Ratchet demo NOW or face my fury.

Yeah, that's understandable - if I still played Resistance, (I think I play once every month now :lol) I'd be in the exact same situation.

I scrapped my purchase of Madden, so I had to spend the money somewhere. :lol

Thats a good man. It looks like the bottleneck of games is spreading out with some delays so I might have more money to toss around. I do want another good MP game and if I don't like what I hear about TF I may still get WH.
 
BobTheFork said:
no way to tell its a joke, and it is you BTW so what should i have thought
I was going to write "YOU FAIL!!11!1!!!" in order to try to put context and try to say "Hey, I'm just fucking around" but I thought that might come off as too agressive. Obviously, the other way didn't work either. Sorry.

I think someone called Madman should be forced to add "!!11!1!!!" to everything, but that's just me.

ARRRRRG I know I know. I'm so broke : ( besides that: I really don't want too many shooters so i'm trying to figure out which I want and which I don't. I'm grabbing HL2, killzone2, stangleHold, maybe haze. I've played all the Unreal tourney games and I love them to death. In this case its more of a "I dont want to play it if I can't go hardcore and destroy everyone" kind of thing, and I'm not sure I have the time anymore. I'm totally against KeyMouse support too (everyone should be forced to use the same controls) If they have a giant Bathroom level, I WILL BUY IT IN SECONDS.
 
Its already past the usual time when they put stuff up on the Euro Store so its safe to raise the pitchforks once again and RIOT
 
FIFA 08 Demo next week? Sweet :D Need me a taste of some next gen football.

Would also like to see SKATE and Stranglehold too.
 
*lowers pitchfork*

they better give euro land spf, i put 55€ in my PSN wallet for Wowhawk and super puzzle, they have no reason to not do it.

No, something will go up. Those times are approximations. Sometimes Europe's content doesn't come until the same time as the US store. Sometimes it comes earlier.

It's still 5PM GMT unless you live in Britain where it's 6PM BST.
