flameboy Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 BUMPAGE!!! Right lets going this going! We have a growing PS3 community let's have some gaming nights. We can either give nights themes or put specific games on certain nights...Its never really kicked off before but lets hope it does now!
Cookyman Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Damn you beat me to it Flamey! I propose a Battlefied night - if we played together with mics it would be cool. So if you haven't got one yet - get a fucking headset!
dwarf Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 I will join you later maybe, got to watch footy and my Jabra is dead from ages ago however.

So if you haven't got one yet - get a fucking headset! LOL! Yeah Battlefield Night would be awesome! I'm a lot more free now..changed jobs at work so work a lot more sociable hours! Also I picked up a new official sony headset before I went to SA not managed to use it yet!
Cookyman Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 I even think a Fat Princess night would be good if we were all mic'd up and worked as a team. Also I picked up a new official sony headset before I went to SA not managed to use it yet! Nice one - use it mate it's awesome! To really see how good it is try SOCOM with it - about 90% of players have mics so there is chatter going on all the time.

MATtheHAT Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) Definitely up for some Battlefield action, I love playing as a sniper in that game. I don't get as many kills as I do with an SMG, but I have a lot more fun doing it. I think most people have KZ2 as well....... EDIT: Also, for those that have W@W, Nazi Zombies is fuckin class with a few mates. Edited September 9, 2009 by MATtheHAT
Cookyman Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 EDIT: Also, for those that have W@W, Nazi Zombies is fuckin class with a few mates. Oh yeah - I'm not a huge fan of the single player COD W@W but have to admit - Nazi Zombies is fucking brilliant fun!
flameboy Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Ok so lets have it like this; Monday Night; Tuesday Night: Wednesday Night: Thursday Night: Friday Night: Saturday AM Saturday PM Sunday AM Sunday PM Not sure if its a bit much offering different stuff for AM and PM on weekends? How about we establish what the BIG games are that clearly deserve a night of their own. So far we have: Battlefield 1943 (multiplayer shooter of the moment?) Burnout Paradise (online with Cookyman, Tegg and Mike were the goodtimes...who was it who had that idiot american friend who was showing off his bitching rides one night and we were just talking to him and ripping him and he didn't realise?) LBP (perhaps could come under a social night? include likes of Buzz and even Home meets?) How about a PSN night? The somewhat more disposable nature of PSN titles means we can get through them at a fair few pace. I'm gonna pop the details up on my blog as well may bring the odd new person...

How about we establish what the BIG games are that clearly deserve a night of their own. So far we have: Battlefield 1943 (multiplayer shooter of the moment?) Change it to Killzone as more people have that IMO (well I don't have Battlefield and dont want it :P Burnout Paradise (online with Cookyman, Tegg and Mike were the goodtimes...who was it who had that idiot american friend who was showing off his bitching rides one night and we were just talking to him and ripping him and he didn't realise?) The person with the friend was cookyman. One of the people taking the piss was me...one of the people whom you forgot also attended most burnout nights LBP (perhaps could come under a social night? include likes of Buzz and even Home meets?) How about a PSN night? The somewhat more disposable nature of PSN titles means we can get through them at a fair few pace. I'm gonna pop the details up on my blog as well may bring the odd new person... Just my two cents.
flameboy Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) Just my two cents. LOL sorry to offend! Now I remember wasn't you I sent a message to via XMB and then you cracked up laughing cos said something like "what a twat"...Incidentally I still have a ton of freeburn challenges to do as am on a new save... Also get what your saying about KZ2 but was thinking of keeping it fresh with whats new etc...so in a month or 2 it will be MW2... I guess perhaps we find out when most people are free find out which games are most popular and then put them on the nights most people are around....and scale it that way...so the least busy night will be me and zerolaff playing MK vs DC online as we are the only 2 who own it...

MATtheHAT Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Just my two cents. Don't you play BlazBlue anymore? Or did I scare you off with my insane Noel Vermillion skillz?
chrizkerr2 Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 I'd be interested in attending, since I really haven't played anyone from n-e online at all. Give Burnout Paradise! Since I still don't understand how to play that online >.<
Deathjam Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Don't you play BlazBlue anymore? Or did I scare you off with my insane Noel Vermillion skillz? Partly that yeah. But it's also to do with me getting games after blaz that I wanted to play. And then I hardly have any time during the week days. But next week I have the whole week off from work and have no plans outdoors so a lot of gaming should be done
LegoMan1031 Posted September 9, 2009 Author Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) Burnout, killzone 2, fat princess, wipeout HD, LBP. They be the games i would be interested in playing online, with headset of course!! and in the case of burnout, PS eye also! I work shifts and vary between evenings and days so i would have to see what i can play week by week kinda thing. Edited September 9, 2009 by Mike1988uk Noticed a spelling error...
dwarf Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Me and Cooky had a good ol' bash on Worms with the headsets a long time ago, a week or so after release with someone called Broxi or summut. Other than that there hasn't been great online moments, a few KZ2 things with everyone, mostly Choze (telling me how lag works and how it wasn't the game's fault ) and then the odd joining here or there but haven't really got to know the personalities on here. I look at the games coming out in the next 6 months or so and they are primarily single player experiences. This year I think Tekken 6 could be great for online especially with the new 3D co-op missions, and I think I'd prefer Bad Company 2 to MW2. Gravity Crash on PSN could be good, creating and sharing levels etc. It's not like there's a lack of choice, it's just a question of the quantity of members and the availability of each person.
Cookyman Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Who wants to play some Uncharted 2 Beta tonight at 9?
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Same, no headset unfortunately, but will be on for a while probs.
MATtheHAT Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Good games there fella's. A particular highlight for me was kicking Cookyman off a ledge as he was climbing up, getting an extremely amusing kill.
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah I did that a couple of times to him. Choze is a sneaky bastard though!
LegoMan1031 Posted September 16, 2009 Author Posted September 16, 2009 *grumbles some more about missing out on the beta key*
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Ya know I wouldn't say you're missing out on too much. I mean it's nice to be able to get a glimpse of the thing but the fact is that Uncharted doesn't convert to multiplayer fun. I'd almost go as far to say that it might detract from the single player experience, because it's better when it's just Drake exploring the land finding cool things and taking on a bunch of people, instead of everyone being thrown into a level with the same abilities as Drake just shooting each other. Kinda wish hey hadn't included it, makes it feel... Less special?
MATtheHAT Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Agreed. I'm not really into the competitive multiplayer on this game. I love the co-op though. IMO I think they should have left out the whole deathmatch thing alltogether, and made a deep co-op game in the same vein as Resident Evil 5.
dwarf Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 Yeah because the co-op feels very right. People vs bots in linear levels is so much better than people vs people in a map. Co-op gives you a feeling of purpose and it's just fun. I think in many ways that 3rd person games are poor at making the transition to online battles. Socom and this both have very noticeable drawbacks.
