Title: I got a PS3
Post by: Cools! on Sunday, November 29, 2009, 12:39:35 AM
Yeah me!

Took some time, but I finally picked up a new console. I picked up InFamous, Uncharted 2 and LittleBigPlanet for the rest of the family. Pretty sweet so far, really digging the graphics.

Oh  yeah, look for my old nickname: coolman0stress.

Cheers!

Your concerns now deal with choosing the appropriate expression in LBP. I prefer looks of exteme worry in peaceful situations and extreme happiness in stressful situations. All while wearing a Mexican fiesta outfit, of course. Keep the fuckers guessing. You understand.

Glad to see you got one. I love the damn thing.

It seems more and more people are getting PS3s, and a whole bunch of us originally had 360s and have given up on it. 

Anyway, I'm 'MrJiPPi' on PSN.

Quemaqua.  I'll bet you couldn't have guessed.  Welcome to the club!

Somebody named Zietown on PSN added me.  Is that anyone on here?

Xessive is Xietoun.  Close enough, I think.

Yep, that's me :D

My Xbox is Xietoun and my PSN is Zietoun (would have gotten the same for both but neither was available on the respective services). I put "Xessive" in my profile comment so people would know it's me :)

Awesome. I play Little Big Planet from time to time online, but most of my online PS3 playing consists of BlazBlue. My PSN ID is TheOtherBelmont.

Oh cool, more ID tags to add, I had wondered what a lot of yours were, never could find a thread that had them, and was to lazy to make one.

Mine is PyroMenace naturally.

I'll add all of you guys next time I log on.

I'm enjoying the games I picked up so far. InFamous was pretty good. Kind of wish it was longer and had a tad bit more to do in the city. I also found the ending pretty boring and too much of a cop-out. I like cliffhangers, but it just felt rushed.

Uncharted 2 = pretty graphics and the action sequences are pretty bad ass, a couple of very memorable moments. Great dialogue, I actually *like* the characters for a change. Very well done story for a "game". My mom actually watched me play it at one point and enjoyed it as a "movie"! She kept asking me when I was "playing" cause she it looked so seamless.

Multiplayer is fun as well, but after a few sessions you wake up and remember that it's still a console game. The maps are small, predictable, the ducking mechanism gets in the way (you stick to the wrong places all the time) and the leveling/badges system results in very unbalanced games. Basically, if you don't have a certain combination of badges you don't really stand a chance against higher level players. A headshot isn't really a headshot. You also tend to spawn BEHIND the enemy line during team games so it's all to easy to get spawn killed. Co-op missions are lots of fun though.

LittleBigPlanet is surprisingly fun. I picked it up so my folks had something "easy" to play. We've been playing it together over the last week and it's been a blast. The little sackguys are fun to smack around.

'round here, we like to call them PSTriple's.  It'd be in your best interest to remember that son.

Or to some it's the "trey".
