Guest Jordan Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Disgaea 3 announced for an August release on the PS3 over in yankee land. Oh god, Dom's gunna cum.
Guest Stefkov Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Just for the hell of it, only a 'mock up' though.
Domstercool Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 DISGAEA 3 YES YES YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS !!!!!
Guest Stefkov Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Er, look up. Just for the hell of it ..............
S.C.G Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 *Strokes his full on USA 60GB hard drive PS3* Ah running any PS2 game is fantastic, upscaled too! *Is playing Wild Arms 5* I'm actually considering going this route too now, I had a look around and might be able to get one for a good price, is it all USA 60GB's that are full backwards compatible though? Also I read that it's completely region free (for PS3 and PS2 games I assume and not Bluray films) and that you can use a UK power supply with it so no need for a step-down converter. If all these things are true then are there any downsides to getting a USA PS3? O.o cos I can't see any atm lol.
ReZourceman Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Oh god, Dom's gunna cum. Hey! Ive fallen in love with Disgaea now too.... .....YESYESYESYES YYYEEEESSSSS!!!!!!!
flameboy Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Well some great Home news surfaced; There's been a lot of Home news recently, which is fine by us. We're happy to learn anything that makes the service appear to be more than just a Second Life clone. If what Kotaku says is true, then Home will be much, much more than that. Their sources have revealed to them exactly what Insomniac, Naughty Dog and Incognito have planned for Home integration and it sounds totally awesome. Both Uncharted and Resistance will allow you to explore empty levels from the game as your Home avatar (hopefully, with your friends - that would make it extra cool). Resistance will also have a game-space in which we'll be able to explore unseen areas of the game as well as listen to extra content from the game in the form of "intercepted radio transmissions" which will expand on the storyline. Uncharted is pegged to have a Contra-style 2D side-scrolling shooter based on the game, available in its gamespace. Warhawk, on the other hand, will feature full game launching from within Home and a "war room" which will allow players to draw out battle plans on a virtual sandbox map of the level. If this all comes true, then Home will be even better than we ever imagined. Sony is apparently using these games to show third parties and other developers the potential of the service. Let's keep our fingers crossed that this will all come true Personally think the service is improving all the time with the drip feed of info and whilst it may be little more than a Second Life clone it will be a worthy distraction. http://www.ps3fanboy.com/

Dont know about PS2 Blu-ray isnt region free, but I have read that some work and some dont Im using a UK power cord and its fine And the only place I can see US PS3's for sale is VGP and DVDBOXOFFICE but there only 40GB
Domstercool Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Only the PS3 games are region free, the PS2 side is still only able to play US game if you get a US PS3.
Guest Jordan Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Yup... thats true. Same with Blu Ray movies and DVD's. You can only play the games/movies from the region you bought the console from.
S.C.G Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Ah cool thanks m_fergy, Dom, Jordan I think I'll still go for it if I can get hold of one, because for PS3 games clearly it's good as can get US versions earlier, PS2 games... I don't want to play a huge amount of them but I think a lot of NTSC games tend to be even cheaper than PAL? I may also at some point wish to pick up one or two NTSC only games so thats cool, Blu Ray... I don't watch a huge amount of films atm at all so thats not so bad, could get some releases earlier and again slightly older films will no doubt be cheaper. Other than that I think I'll be good to go, unless theres anything I need to know about stuff in the settings menus that I would need to change etc due ot it being an import, I would assume they are largely the same though regardless of region. Assuming I get it, I'll want to pick up MGS4 in March? (I heard that was the US release date, unless I'm wrong?) I guess the best place to get that from would be VGplanet, play-asia etc?
Guest Jordan Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Assuming I get it, I'll want to pick up MGS4 in March? (I heard that was the US release date, unless I'm wrong?) I guess the best place to get that from would be VGplanet, play-asia etc? June 11th, world wide. Oh and you'de need a different power cable.
Domstercool Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 US PS2 Games are always 60hz, so you never get boarders, and of course if you are an RPG fan, you get all those ones that never come to Europe.
Guest Jordan Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Yeah but you're missing the point. RPG's are generally cliché and terrible... generally speaking. Even you have to admit theres a jack load of clone RPG's out there. Even Lost Oddessy for its story telling (which, to be honest, i can't be doing with reams of text half the time) is very much just an NES FF game with a coat of paint.
S.C.G Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 ah I assumed that June 11th was just for Europe and that US would get it months before due to Europe getting shafted on a release date yet again. But either way June 11th is cool, gives me time to actually get the machine. and hmm yes thats another plus about the PS2 games as I hate borders, as for RPG's hmm there may be a couple, if there were any US exclusives in the Tales of... series then definitely.
ReZourceman Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Is there a reason Disgaea 2 isnt coming to PSP? Its extremely annoying that I may have to buy a PS2 just to play it! Booo! And I agree with Jordan. I love decent RPGs but fuck some are so cloney, samey and dont bring anything interesting or new to the table. Or are too long and not involving, and no pay off. And too much text for a SUPER standard story.
