dwarf Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Just be careful when using the triggers. If you press down the triggers slightly at the start of a turn, you can then get a feel of how much more you need to press them to get the correct level of turn. Get to the opening of the corner, start turning and hold the trigger inward a bit, and then just tilt the analogue as far as it goes and use solely the trigger to adjust for the rest of the turn (apex onwards). That's probably too confusing but I think that's how I do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Nah, that was clear. I'll give it a go next time I'm on. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 If you've got a right-hand turn it helps to point your craft left slightly before you take it, makes it less likely you'll scrape the wall you're turning towards and it gives you more time to figure out how much air-brake you want. You get familiar with turns in Wipeout so that eventually you won't have to figure out how much you're applying the air brake. (All the advice I've given is trademark of Dwarf Gourami inc., a formula you cannot get anywhere else. Deathjamm fucking loved it, and you will follow.)

Emasher Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Yep Current Gen lol. It's 3mths old & thats the only problem. Just wondered if Drakes fortune was well known for being buggy ?? It only does it now & again but when it does it takes ages & a lot of restarts to get through it especially during the early chapters. It hasn't done it since i posted on here lol. I have no experience with Sony's customer service, but I'd imagine it can't hurt to call them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Well Drake's fortune is known to be buggy. A whole firmware patch (not solely for this game) had to be release once, which fixed it. However, subsequent updates may have undone this work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gio001 Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Cheers all. Think it's just the game that was buggy. First few levels were a nightmare but it's been fine since, fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/108/1084010p1.html Kind of annoyed that 3D ready TVs hadn't come out at the time when I bought mine last year. I really think 3D HD gaming could be absolutely brilliant, but I'm not splashing out on a new set. It's like I've been unfortunate to marginally miss the last major update televisions have been getting recently :/ Motorstorm in 3D... That would be amazing, I'm surprised there isn't much buzz about console gaming in proper three dimensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daft Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Like most technologies you probably don't want the first generation. I'll give it two years at least, I reckon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwarf Posted April 15, 2010 Share Posted April 15, 2010 Yeah I guess. I still feel like this has happened too soon after my purchase though. Obviously I bloody enjoy having an HDTV now but why didn't they put this awesome feature in sooner?! It obviously has to be pretty damn cool at this stage by now anyway. Bastards!

Emasher Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 I figure by the time my monitor is in need of replacing, there will probably be a 1080p 3D 22" one for around $199. I purchased my current one long enough ago that I don't feel I should have waited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cube Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 With 3D you really need to wait for one format to triumph. There's just too many different formats at the moment. Different screens, different glasses and all sorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Choze Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 (edited) It will take a while for 3d tv's to take off. Sony actually have their top end already supporting it once updates come(Panasonic dont ). But no one sees 3d as being mainstream for a year or two at least. Bear in mind its taken HDTV's years to get in as normal. With 3D you really need to wait for one format to triumph. There's just too many different formats at the moment. Different screens, different glasses and all sorts. There arent any formats to worry about as the Blu Ray group chose their spec. So all the TV manufacturers are basing their tv's around this. The idea is that it works on any kind of display device. Edited April 17, 2010 by Choze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choze Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Any new display devices that is. Yeah. Didnt mean compatible with old screens. Like the Hd thing this will mean a premium at first. So for some a cheaper non 3d tv might be smarter right now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emasher Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 The thing you have to remember, is even though Reald3d (SP) is going to be the standard for Blu-ray, and most 3D displays, its possible that the technology becomes obsolete within a few years.

Afew years is a bit optimistic. Its tied to Blu Ray and cinemas so i expect it will last until Blu Ray gets replaced at least. But you never know. Is Avatar Blu Ray coming out in 3d?

Emasher Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 Avatar is nearly pointless without 3D, as there are far better movies that tell the same story. Not to mention its the movie that's being used to sell the new generation of 3D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
