Posted February 17, 2009 Let's just get that straight before people start thinking I'm a nerdy b*stard Oh... I always thought smack talk relative to computer games was, for lack of a better word, sad. Being the best out of a lot of my friends and being relatively lame playing online I can happily say it is way more fun killing a good person a couple of times, than trashing everyone pretty much with ease. Then again, I only play online in a team. I never really got all out deathmatch. Just doesn't seem fun trying to kill everyone. I like covering people, I suppose.

Unless someones knows better? Didn't realise Bomberman was this week. Noby Noby Boy is not for me, don't like the art style and it's brand of mucking around and not doing a lot doesn't attract me in the same way as other games.

Posted February 17, 2009 I could be wrong. I hope Bomberman is this month. I have held out on buying the Wii one apart from the one on VC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 17, 2009 Are there any PS3 games that play in 1080p yet? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_full_HD_1080P_PS3_games Not really sure how accurate that list is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2009 Hmm weird because on the back of the MGS4 box it says 720p. When I tried it it didn't do 1080 so that list is probably wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2009 For people with GTA PS3 is it normal to get a black screen before the artwork when you load the game up for about 15seconds? I had a small problem with the Killzone 2 demo last night too as when everyone spoke it was out of sync with the subtitles. I'm just wondering if there is a problem with my new HDD. Thanks.

Posted February 17, 2009 I'm not sure if this is what you're talking about but anyway - A few months back when my HDD was playing up (data corrupting/installs not working etc) when I loaded a game after the initial PS3 logo it took quite a while for a game to load up and get to the starting screen. After a short while of this my HDD had to be restored after other issues. The main lesson I learned was to not turn off the PS3 via the power switch on the back, but the LED one at the front because apparently what I was doing actually damages the HDD whereas turning it off at the front allows the PS3 to finish whatever it is doing.

Posted February 17, 2009 Nah thats not quite what i mean. What I'm talking about is when you load up GTA after the Rockstar logos come up there is a black screen for about 15 seconds then the artwork for the game shows up as it loads. I can't remember seeing a black screen like that when i played it at my mates, unless it's something to do with a patch. If anyone has GTA would they try it and let me know what happens?

Posted February 17, 2009 If it was a patch it would of been the trophy patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2009 Back of the box means nothing. Thats just what TV modes the game supports. Not what the game will run in. Hope that makes sense. The actual games run in varying resolutions. Many PSN games tend to be 1080p. Some retail games do like Ridge Racer 7(1080p @ 60 fps) or have parts that are 1080p. 720p is dominant though. 1080p upscaling is fine in PS3 but on 360 it causes framerate loss. On the PS3 just set whatever your TV supports and the game will pick the best setting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 17, 2009 So I just got a Playstation Eye, mainly for the Burnout Trophy. But I am now discovering other bits and pieces you can do with it. The free software you can download is pretty good, with various special effects videos you can make and store its definately fun for an hour or so. I also downloaded something called Aqua Vita from the Store, its basically an interactive screen saver. An Aquarium with Coral and Marine fish that you can feed by 'sprinkling' food at the top of the tank. Also, when you approach the TV, the fish will swim up to the glass to greet you:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2009 I love when Playstation Eye is used but it is criminally underused. I wish Sony would sort it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 17, 2009 Yeh, the new DLC is so gud.. o whats that? playstation? ill leave Sry for being a dick, but this deserves an in yo face moment I don't actually care. GTA IV is nearly a year old and for me is no longer relevant as a game I completed it ages ago and with plenty of other new games out I don't have any interest in playing some episodic content.

Posted February 17, 2009 1080p upscaling is fine in PS3 but on 360 it causes framerate loss. On the PS3 just set whatever your TV supports and the game will pick the best setting. PS1/2 games are upscaled, PS3 games run at their native resolution and their in game engines throw out whatever they want. The PS3 does not have a hardware scaler chip, it can only run at what the developer tells it to. The 360 has a dedicated scaler chip, it gets whatever resolution you throw at it and it upscales it to what you want the output to be, this usually doesn't make an ounce of difference as most games are 720p. This is why developers like Bungie can make Halo 3 run at 640p and then the 360 takes care of the upscaling to 720p/1080i/1080p. There is no frame rate loss from this, no calculations are taking place, its simply scaling. There is no proof that using a 1080p signal from a game that runs in 720p causes frame rate issues.
