I think he's talking about a MGS4 "substance"

I think he's talking about a MGS4 "substance"

But substance isn't really considered a remake, from my knowledge it's basically the same looking game with a bunch of extras, but nothing significant like a remake.

 

[theeboredone]

Well, when he referred to "redoings" of MGS2 and 3, I wasn't sure if he was referring to the ones coming out in the collection or the substance ones.

Substance ones. The collection is basically HD-fying them.

Just a heads up for PS3 owners:

You can get a key for the Uncharted 3 Beta now from IGN.

Oh yeah, I love it when F8AL announces free stuff.

 

[theeboredone]

Like I would become a premium member...Anyone know if we can easily cancel after the trial?

 

[OmegaXXII]

By any chance did you have a PSN account before the hack?

If yes then you can get a 1 month free that's part of the Sony's Welcome Back packageBthat was offered earlier this month, but I think the deadline for the free stuff is near.

I try my best. :3

Yes. Don't think there's any way they can force you to renew if you don't give them your CC info.

I believe he's talking about the 30 day IGN trial for an Uncharted 3 beta code? Not PSN+? (May be wrong on this.)

Actually you are correct, for some reason I thought he was talking about the downloads

 

[theeboredone]

Can't get around the IGN page without having to give my credit card number -.-

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

UC3 beta is up.

Assuming all of you have PSPlus, then just search "Uncharted 3 Beta" in the store.

I'm already downloading.

 

[theeboredone]

Is the beta the multiplayer mode or the actual single player?

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

Multiplayer.

 

[F8AL]

Oh.

Multiplayer. Demos are generally for single player.

 

[Ryu Shimazu]

Is psn down for anyone? It won't let me sign in...and doesn't explain why at all.. it justs has "Suggested actions" highlighted.

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

Nah, but the Uncharted 3 Beta keeps crashing. The bits of gameplay I get are exciting though.

 

[theeboredone]

Probably because it's being flooded and downloaded at the moment.

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

I'm signing in fine, and the UC3 beta connects every time, unlike the KZ3 one. Guess Naughty Dog saw that coming.

But does the beta slow down the PS3 for anyone? Me, it dips to about 10 FPS and causes the rest of the PS3 to do so too. Sometimes it even freezes my PS3.

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

Mines is fine. D/L took longer than I though. As mentioned a lot of people are probably all downloading at once.

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

No, really. The UC3 beta slows down my PS3 and when it does that, EVERYTHING runs at only around 10 FPS. Honestly, what's wrong? Anyone else experiencing this?

 

[OmegaXXII]

Hmm.. I actually started my download last night, when I signed in I had minor problems, had to exit a couple of times before I could get it to start, once I started downloading it for me it was 25FPS, it took a while but it seems to have successfully downloaded

 

[theeboredone]

I gave in. Not big on FPS games...but it's Uncharted.

Wow, they have Rival Schools avatars at the PSN store? Legit.

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

I haven't once changed my avatar since I made my PSN. Back then they really lacked decent avatars...

 

[theeboredone]

Yeah, mine is still a monkey from Ape Escape.

Yep, I suck at multiplayer FPS games. I don't know if it's the stages, but it's really hard to camp and be a sniper.

And while I have not played much CoD, Halo, etc...the running does feel a bit too slow.

I forgot how hard it was to climb...thank you Infamous.

One match, I was a lv 3 with some other lv3s and we got paired up against a bunch of lv 10+s...wtf?!

The airship stage is really fun.

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

I'm pulling 15+ kills every game and dying very rarely.

 

[theeboredone]

Yeah, I just don't play fps games...not my genre...hence why I could care less about the multi-player component of this game.

My strengths lie in action, platforming, and to a certain extent, fighters.

And omg at those kids talking and whining throughout the entire game. No one wants to hear what you guys are gonna do to spend the afternoon, and then later yelling at your mom abotu what you're doing.

Thank goodness for mute button.

 

[SupaSairentoZ7℠]

Honestly hearing kids yelling at their moms on who they are talking to or what they doing is funny to a extent since you usually can hear the arguments clearly. Heck on other games random disconnects because they were told to turn the game off or their parents probably pulled the cord on them.

 

[theeboredone]

I can see that...but I dunno...to me it's just annoying =/. Either I want people talking strategy (lawlz) or nothing at all.

Nothing at all....

Nothing at all...

Stupid Sexy Flanders.

 

[SonicBOOM XS]

I once got teamed with guys less than Level 10 against guys who were Level 15+. And it was in the middle of a match.

I was surprised when I managed a 1-1 KDR. XD

Anyone want to play Coop?

PSN 'Welcome Back' program extended to July 5; THIS IS IT, DO IT NOW!

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/07/04/psn-welcome-back-program-extended-to-july-5-this-is-it-do-it/

Sony has wisely avoided getting into a semantics argument about the definition of "through" by stating a clear conclusion to the Welcome Back package: 9AM Pacific on July 5th. That gives procrastinators another day to do everything else but download their free games.

To all the procrastinators out there, Sony listened to your complaints!

 

[OmegaXXII]

Why post it now? It's just one day lol...

 

[F8AL]

They decided on this last night and I read it this morning...

 

[OmegaXXII]

It just goes to show how Sony can could screw up things in an instant as well. :/

 

[Fuelbi]

That's ridiculous it only takes 5 minutes to purchase the things itself. If you REALLY didn't have time to download stuff, then purchasing them would've been sufficient enough until you could actually download them later.

And this was a whole month. If you didn't have 5 spare minutes in a month then you suck

 

[theeboredone]

Uncharted Beta...my motivation to get PSN+

 

[GunmasterLombardi]

Uncharted Beta...my motivation to get PSN+

You didn't buy Infamous 2?!

 

[theeboredone]

I didn't know there was any relation between Infamous 2 and PSN+...

 

[pickle962]

Not to mention Sony's welcome back program contains Infamous 1 FOR FREE!!!!

 

[theeboredone]

I think you guys are getting the free games mixed up with PSN+...which is/was required to get the Uncharted Beta early.
