MATtheHAT Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 I saw one of the side missions that they showed as an exclusive at Gametrailers. Looked pretty poor if I'm being honest, then again it was ruined by developer narration that spoiled what was going to happen seconds before he did it. AI made an abysmal showing. Is that the one where he poisons the guard who then kills the target? If so thats an early E3 build and has apparently been polished up for a 9/10 review in OXM.
dwarf Posted November 15, 2009 Posted November 15, 2009 No it's where he has to get to treasure chests that are being 'protected' by guards. He manages to get to the chests by making them run after a bunch of random hooligans as well as just jumping behind them and taking the goods without them batting an eyelid. The other was the smokebomb technique which admittedly looks cool.
flameboy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Anyone else having a problem syncing trophies? I want to sync my Uncharted platinum. Yeah keep getting an error when I go to do it.
Daft Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 No, the spelling of favorite in this headline is not a typo – just the way those in Europe tend to spell the word. Free online streaming service TVCatchup is currently available to anyone in the UK with an Adobe Flash 10 Player. So it would naturally include our favourite console, the PlayStation 3, right? Yes, but there is one caveat – you must reside in the UK for the service to work properly. This is a legal issue, so it is unlikely to change anytime soon, but to those users across the pond, we say happy viewing! http://playstationlifestyle.net/2009/11/16/catchup-on-your-favourite-tv-shows-on-your-favourite-console/ http://community.eu.playstation.com/playstationeu/board/message?board.id=62&message.id=1084675 I'm not too sure how useful this is since you can only watch live TV from what I can tell. Unless I'm missing something.
Rowan Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Been using TVCatchup for a long while, it's a great website with streams high quality even when viewed through the PS3. Very handy for people for students at uni to view on their monitors etc if they dont have a TV or TV license. Also some channels which arn't on Freeview such as More4+1 & Men & Motors.

Unless I'm missing something. Hmm quite useful actually. Despite owning a HDTV in my room I have no way of recieving digital because am in a poor reception area. We don't have an aerial either due to cable downstairs, so perhaps this could be good for watching tv in bed!

Still need license as with all these services...
Rowan Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah my bad, you do need a TV license. Don't know why I said you didnt:hmm: Anyone used their PS2 controller on their PS3, thinking of getting one of these adapters as a cheap solution to having to buy another Dualshock 3. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130329647356
dazzybee Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Didn't know BRAID was coming to PS3 -AWESOME!! When's it out? Live TV through PS3?! Sounds good.
Emasher Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 I'm not sure if the release dates are international, but its already out on the US store, I bought it the other day. anyway: BF:BC2 Beta European Giveaway: http://babelfish.yahoo.com/translate_url?doit=done&tt=url&intl=1&fr=bf-home&trurl=http%3A%2F%2Fstore.4players.de%2F2.0%2F4players.php%2Fproduktinfo%2F9979%2FBattlefield_Bad_Company_2_Beta-Key_PS3.html&lp=de_en&btnTrUrl=Translate
That Guy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah keep getting an error when I go to do it. Me too. It hasn't worked for a couple of days now.
flameboy Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah Braid isn't out on EU store yet...heard it would be costing £7.99 not sure how accurate that is...I've got the lower spec version on my netbook got it when it was on sale on Steam and played it a bit but didn't see what all the fuss was.
dwarf Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah. Might be a problem if you want to do a trade in for a new copy of AC2. You'll get more money if you do it for Cex vouchers and they'll be redundant until they have the game in stock next week. You could just accept the cash amount and go to game but then that's probably too much hassle. Btw I'm now contemplating buying AC2. It's the imminent pre-release anticipation disease that I caught off you.
Daft Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Yeah, I'll just do the cash thing. It says I'll get £26 on their website and I'm not going to get any more use out of Uncharted. I've been waiting for ACII ever since the last one ended. I'd play the first one again if I hadn't accidentally deleted my save.
Emasher Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Has anyone seemed to have lost all their online stats for Battlefield Bad Company?
Gizmo Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Damn, I'm gonna have to dodge this thread now. I was supposed to be getting this straight away but can't Christmas it is I guess.

Wesley Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 So I finally picked up a PS3 yesterday with MW2. Can anyone recommend some good titles that are incredibly cheap online?
Pit-Jr Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I recommend Elefunk, its a fiver. Keep an eye out, PSN slashes prices on older games frequently. I also recommend Warhawk but i dont know if people still play it online
flameboy Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 So I finally picked up a PS3 yesterday with MW2. Can anyone recommend some good titles that are incredibly cheap online? Do you mean cheap disk games? Theres loads...Rachet and Clank Tools of Destruction. Play also do platinum games from £10
dwarf Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I have too much respect for my friends, for myself even, to post trophy and game updates on my FB. I won't be bothering. I'd rather they just gave more freedom in how we manage our friends list and let us edit our profile stuff a bit more, incl. ability to choose which trophies you display on the ID etc.

I dunno its nice to see peoples more recent trophies etc...
dwarf Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Actually to be fair there are quite a lot of people on my FB friends list that don't deserve respect, namely X-factor fans, that probably should be subjected to constant trophy status updates. The sods.
flameboy Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 I'd quite like being able to have my profile card show up on facebook and auto update, like you can on xbox...there is one but you have to update it manually...
