The Official PS3 thread

so i picked up a used dualshock 2 at gamestop yesterday. they are in clear bags so I was able to find one that was SCPH - 10010 H. I brought it home, cleaned the shit out of it (dirty motherfuckers) and…the circle button doesnt work. :bluu:

^and you were saying Stu?

I hate used systems except for my DC refurbished.

I bought it in 2000 and I still play marvel on it today.

no one has an answer to my ps1 to psp L2 R2 button question? i might just have to buy something blind hoping there is a way to use those buttons haha.

im outi

Picked up Vanquish for $35 at Kmart.

the excess shoulder buttons are mapped to the joystick i think, left is the l and right is the r if i recall or somethign along those lines its a pain in the ass, so if you pickin a game that has l2 and r2 BEWARRRER, some dude actually added small buttons to the shoulders of his psp and wired it so it would work but that is mad work

This post = truth.

Lords of Shadow

Spoiler

Ending the game with a fist fight with Satan >>>>> anything GoW could come up with. And GoW has some crazy stuff in it so that’s saying a lot.

So I went and bought Tomb Raider Underworld from the PS Store (gonna wait on Guardian of Light 'til a price drop or the online patch goes live). Never finished it the first time I had it. Dunno why it’s $5 less than on the Xbox Marketplace…maybe because it doesn’t have any free or paid DLC available for it.

I normally wouldn’t bother swapping my Sengoku Basara/Uncharted 2 discs out for TR, but the simple convenience of being able to instantly switch back & forth between two full-fledged games means I’ll give TR another go.

EDIT: If SSF4 was available for download I’d probably play it a lot more :lol:

fuckin hell, what happens when you clipp the wings of a valkyrie from macross and put it on a race track?

Uh…a 20-foot-deep trench dug down the center of the length of the track?

I don’t think I have the patience for the trials. God damn. Some are really brain dead, but others just seem really fucking annoying.

I’m on the last level. Really enjoyed it. I feel like the game comes full circle. At first I was like “Why the fuck am I running through all these places? I want the fucking castle god damnit” and knowing what the ending is, it all becomes clear. I’ve actually enjoyed the game more because I know what the end actually is. It strikes me as a bit tragic. Much more effective than the stuff in GoW since Kratos’ motivation was great in the first game, but after that it was really just “RAAAAARGH I"M ANGRY”.

They could, but they won’t, because they can resell HD remix shit. And it’s stupid as fuck. There’s still no god damn reason to remove backwards compatability except they can make money reselling PS2 games are HD remix editions.

The PS2 with component cables hooked up to an HDTV looks horrendous. At least with a BC PS2 they clean it up a bit. That’s still my main beef. I have a ps2 but it sure as shit isn’t hooked up to my 55 inch because the games look like shit on a PS2, but look pretty good on my BC PS3. When it dies I doubt I"ll get another. I’ll probably just go buy a dedicated blu ray player. That shit has irritated me since Sony did it.

Just saw Bayonetta at my local Blockbuster pre-owned for $15. Should I pull the trigger on that? Did they ever fix the framerate issues on the PS3 version of that game?

they released a patch for the PS3 bayonetta which fixed all the slow load times and frame rate issues.

Sounds like a pick up to me. That was the only issue that made me apprehensive. Thankies.

Get it. Game was awesome (and as already stated, they did fix the game breaking frame rate issues in PS3).

I find it really stupid how someone can dismiss features of a game just because you’re not pushing a button. It’s all part of a package that adds to the experience. That includes music, graphics, cut scenes, story, characters, environment & ethos etc.

What the fuck does this even mean? Have you figured out how magnets work yet?
P. Gorath is bitching about a controller cause some grimy motherfuckers turned in a broke controller. (Which I’m helping him out by giving him my spare DS2) Not the system.

The only PS2’s I’ve had have been used and I’ve never had issues with them. And I’ve had about 6 PS2’s now.
Quit being some paranoid, cheap fuck and just buy a used PS2.

Uuuggghhh.

Anyways. A friend of mine got me Lost Planet 1 and 2, Resonance of Fate and Eternal Sonata for my birthday. (though its not till the 22nd.). And when I get paid I’m going to hit up amazons B2G1 sale.

Thinking right now
Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions
Smackdown vs. RAW 11
Transformers War for Cybertron (I know multiplayer is dead. Don’t care since I don’t have real internet and can’t get on PSN)

I may switch out SvR11 for Castlevania or Enslaved though. I can’t really decide.

b2g1free video game sale on Amazon. Good chance to pick up RB3, Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, and another game for a decent price.

Assuming they’re still going to focus more on third-person shooting than dodging & item conservation, this could be a turn for the best. But good god, why Slant Six? Even Socom fans don’t really like them :stuck_out_tongue:

omg if you don’t know who slant six is and what they did to socom you would be even more enraged than the whole dmc thing. this is terrible :shake:
