Dante Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 SIREN: Blood Curse -- PSN (Available Summer 2008 / Not Yet Rated) Released in twelve downloadable episodes, SIREN: Blood Curse delivers a haunting and horrifying story exclusively to PS3. Set in the Japanese village of Hanuda, an American TV crew has arrived to research and film an expose on the legend of a "vanished village." Controlling seven different playable characters, the player must discover the mystery behind the curse that grips the eerie village of Hanuda. The unique "sight jack" system allows the player to see from the point of view of the Shibito, or living dead, to avoid their detection or watch as they close in on the crew. Intense graphics, realistic character animation, and a gritty film-like graphical presentation add to the horror of SIREN: Blood Curse.
Domo Kun Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Has anyone got Haze then? Is the actual game better than the demo?
Hero-of-Time Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Has anyone got Haze then? Is the actual game better than the demo? Its not out til next Friday. Im still not sure whether I will pick it up.
Domo Kun Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Oh so it is, however- http://www.play.com/Games/PlayStation3/4-/1022791/Haze/Product.html I saw that and assumed it was out now. If anyone wants their copy of Haze early it may be worth a try... I'm going to wait for some reviews before I consider this game.

I'm quite tempted but like you said I'm going to wait for some reviews.
Hero-of-Time Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Everyone interested in Little Big Planet, Killzone 2 and Resistance 2 should head over to IGN and read their impressions. I cant post the links as im on the PS3 but they are REALLY impressed by all 3 titles. The online mode on Resistance sounds AMAZING.

Hero-of-Time Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Nice one Daft. Over at kotaku they are giving alot of praise to PixelJunk Eden, never played any of the PixelJunk games but it does look interesting.
Daft Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 IGN also have a MotorStorm and Eden Hands on. MotorStorm: Pacific Rift PixelJunk Eden Looks like Sony are on a roll. All these games can consider themselves bought.
Choze Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 LittleBigPlanet ad Motorstorm 2 just never fail to put a smile on my face. Good news its 4 player splitscreen online. Should be a rule!
flameboy Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 There are loads of videos of the pompey celebrations etc... on youtube I want to put onto a dvd/cd to then watch on my PS3 whats they easiest way to do it?
Guest Jordan Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Memory stick Or if you're fancy, stream them off a network via ethernet cable. Random fact: Haze, is barely HD. It runs at 576p. No shit. Its not like theres much "nice"ness about it.

Its not like theres much "nice"ness about it. should have made it clearer, what programs/sites can I use that will generate movies I can play on the PS3...

Guest Jordan Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Ohhhhhhhh i see. Right, well. PS3 plays .avi (divx and xvid [although xvid is pretty sketchy on support]) so most of the things you'll get online already come in these formats and will not need any encoding (the correct term to use >:3) to run. Just stick 'em on a memory stick/memory card (if your PS3 has the slots) and your PS3 will pick them up and put them under Videos and tell you if they will play or not. Simple as. Caris, it was only just on Kotaku... what can i do?
Daft Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 No Haze review up with less than a week to go; this game is crap me thinks. Been playing Disgaea 3 all this morning. Pretty fun. Never played a Disgaea game before.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 It got 34/40 in Famitsu and 9/10 in PSM Italy. I don't get why people seem so determined to hate Haze, it's not like Free Radical are new to the genre or anything. It should be a really good game.
Chuck Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Go to Windows Media player>library options>media sharing. Enable to 360 or PS3. Change the source on your 360(X) or connect to media server on PS3 to stream videos.

I want this to be good, MGS4 is taking too long to come out. I'll hold my breath until Eurogamer and GameSpot give their verdicts. A 7/10 from Eurogamer would make me seriously consider it.
LegoMan1031 Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 I haven't 4GB to install Haze! Oh dear, well if this keeps up i'll run out of room and have to fund a new HDD. With this and metal gear my free space will quickly disappear...

What about youtube videos that I would like to keep/compile a dvd what would I have to use so I can download and encode the youtube videos so I can play them on my PS3 and possibily other dvd players...
Chuck Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 I dont know a whole lot about that. All Iknow is that if it is in a format it likes it will play it.
khilafah Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 Has anyone got Haze then? Is the actual game better than the demo? go and read IGN review.. 4.5/10. It's rubbish.. 4.5 Presentation A bland story with weak characters and simplistic commentaries on serious topics, Haze is a generic tale at best about war. 4.0 Graphics Tons of visual issues abound within the game, from texture tears and non-descript environments to pop-in and odd animation problems. 5.0 Sound Dialogue is hokey and repetitive regardless of what side you're on. Sound effects are good, but that's not enough to make you turn the volume up once you've hit mute. 4.5 Gameplay A creative concept hampered by gimmicks, a weak story and poor AI, Haze is a disappointment from a developer well versed in shooter mechanics. 4.5 Lasting Appeal Two player split-screen and four player co-op helps put a minor spin on the campaign, but it won't extend the replayability of the game much. Nor will multiplayer modes and its useless merit system. 4.5 Poor OVERALL (out of 10 / not an average) I have heard GamesTM have scored it 4/10 also. Not sure how true that is..
