I'm having fun with Battlefield: Bad Company 2 at the moment.

However, my enjoyment is being somewhat overshadowed by shitty team-mates. If anyone on NG plays in groups of decent players, I'd be interested.

Also, I finally got the "Dentist" trophy - YAY FOR ME!

PSN is dobermanVII, btw.

I also play quite a bit. I can play as anything rather well, but I tend to play as recon to mostly be annoying and shoot choppers down with the M95.

The other day I got a marksman headshot on someone that was driving a Vodnik at full chat, was pretty awesome. And I'm like a final boss when I'm a chopper gunner :3

LOLNOFUCKYOU.

I've done that a few times, I like shooting the pilots in helicopters though so that I can piss them off. Funny thing is, the chopper gunner doesn't decide to switch to the pilots seat half the time, which gives me an LOLMFAOROFLNOU.

What is FirstPlay?

At 5/20/10 12:59 PM, doberman7 wrote: What is FirstPlay?

A weekly feature that has previews and reviews of the latest games, a what's hot on PSN section, a screenshot gallery of upcoming games and exclusive DLC. All for 99p. And you can only get it in the UK so hahaha, ha. Also, Lucy Porter the narrator has the prettiest voice ever.

Went to Preston today. First stop was GAME, got Split/Second. Went to another place to sell some Blu Rays. Went back to GAME to get Red Dead, sold out. Tried the other GAME, sold out as well. Went to HMV for it, sold out. Went to gamestation, they had a load of cases so I thought I was in business, sold out.

Because of this I was all like RAGGGEEEEEE so as I about to give up I went to the place where I sold my Blu Rays and they had 3 copies left. The moral of this story is that preordering is for chumps kids.

Red Dead Redemption is a dick.

You have to unlock your exclusive DLC.

God of War 3 is ace :D. I had to pause at the Aphrodite bit cause I feel it may get too sexy and my tea was due to be deliverered.

It is a very sexy scene

It's a wonderful game though, I really need to platinum it

Platinum-ed that shit about a month ago. I must say getting the trophies were fun in a weird way.

Think my PS3 is on the way out. It's whirring really fucking loud. Like, Xbox 360 loud.

Maybe it's just the high-heat fan setting. Once your PS3 is on for a long time or in a really hot environment, the second speed for the fan comes on and it sounds pretty loud.

If that's not it, you definitely should get it checked out.

I suspect it's the heat at the moment.

Your PS3's fan is going pretty fast to keep temps low. I wish this heat will end soon. I'm only up now because I can't get to sleep.

This was definitely part of my last post.

To be honest, I'm not going to be using the 3D feature as I don't have a 3D TV, nor plan on getting one soon, jetpacks are now going on at least 2 years old (3rd Warhawk pack), and I hope to god that they would add more weapons.

As for the story, it sounds exactly like KZ2 right now. What I want to see more from the story is a bit of humanization of the Helghast. Make them less evil; the ISA is invading their home planet and mercilessly slaughtering everyone. Why not make everything a bit more gray instead of black and white?

My fat PS3 started doing that. Was getting worried which I why got a Slim when I did. Was lucky to get it with 2 free games as well. GAME gave me £150 for the fat which was really good considering I'd had it for 2 and a bit years.

Nearly 30% into RDR, really enjoying it now. Horseshoes is boring as hell.

But if the both factions are in a sort of grey area, they'll have to add some colour to the actual levels.
A gritty shooter that ISN'T grey and bland?
Your insane.

I'm going to start forgetting about my problems with being anal with trophies. I'm sort of wasting my lovefilm account by spending ages trying to plat ridiculously difficult online trophies games so I'm just going to start not bothering. Theres lots of stuff I could be doing instead. So fuck GTA, fuck Fifa World Cup, fuck Skate 2 and fuck World at War.

Plus I can't get Grand Theft Pony if I have GoW2 and Fifa out :P.

WaW is doable, it merely requires a LOT of patience and bravery to get through veteran.

I've got all but two of the original trophies, just need to zeros one (which I was close to doing but stopped trying because of Heavy Rain or FFXIII came out or something) and that Co-Op online one.

Do you not have to do all the DLC ones? And sod paying money for the maps.

---

COD 2 was worse on veteran. If you go back out of a house to cover or whatever, all the enemies inside respawn.

I ended up clearing most buildings by filling them with smoke and then charging around gunbutting anyone I came across.

---

I've been playing UC2 online lately, if anyone wants to party up its Redkiller73. I also don't know if clan tags actually do anything but mine is of course NG.

http://blog.eu.playstation.com/2010/05/2 6/heads-up-playstation-store-update-26th -may-2010/

Nothing particularly interesting except Final Fantasy IX. I was almost sure we wouldn't see that this week because the American store update didn't have it.

---

Red Dead Redemption is the only game in ages I actually have to pull myself away from. I'd play it all day if I didn't force myself to stop.

Hey everyone. Some of you might remember me by Hollow-Ichigo-777. I made a new account because I had a major personality shift (aka I stopped acting like such a baby dick and got a life) like 10 months ago and I didn't feel like changing my profile, deleting my old posts and blah blah blah. Mostly it was because I just didn't like my old username, lol. Anywho I'm still on PSN a lot and just to throw it out again, my PSNID is Gran-Turismo-Man. I'm online almost every day for at least a few hours, whether it being I just turned on the PS3 to answer a message or two and then left it to shoot my electricity bill through the roof or I'm actually playing a game.

If you're going to add me with intention of playing a few games online, I'll say this right now: If you really want to play with me online consistently, you'll achieve that best by having BlazBlue Calamity Trigger (or Continuum Shift when it comes out), Armored Core For Answer, Metal Gear Solid 4, or Demon's Souls because those are the only games I actually pick up and play for consistent periods of time without being bored into leaving these days, lol. If I get a wired connection going again, I'll start using Ad Hoc Party and I'll play with anyone that has Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, God Eater, or Guilty Gear XX Accent Core Plus.

With that all said, it's good to be back on NG again! :D
