NEXT GEN CONSOLES

[rhysieg]

So basically Horde from Gears of War 2?

That's not a bad thing, BTW.

[WS_Jack_III]

yes sad, but im very proud of them.

and in quick reply to everything:

uncharted is ace, and the bit in question is indeed a touch scary

mirrors edge is good, but tough, i gave up as i was crap.

the best gaming noise is levelling up on battlefield 1943.

also naughty dog has revealed a new mode for uncharted 2, its called goldrush, you basically play co-op to retrieve treasure over rounds. each round the enemies get harder, you just have to survive and get as much treasure as possible.

[rhysieg]

haha i hope to be on the same level as sad as you soon haha

can i ask what this battlefield 1943 is?

[Langdale Wolf]

I've completed Uncharted!!

Amazing game - absolutely loved it. A solid 9/10 from me - full 2-player co-op would have earned it a 10. Otherwise, very hard to fault it.

Now to go back a few pages and read those spoilers!!

nah never. Am i missing out?

[rhysieg]

I think I must be the only person in the world that doesn't give a f**k about call of duty, or any of it's countless spinoffs.

[WS_Jack_III]

i hate cod5 with a passion. cod4 is fecking brilliant, and since cod6 is a follow up to 4 i can only assume good things. even though they are trying to rip us off.

[rhysieg]

and yet you sat through what could be the hardest game to platinum and did it.

I stated before that i don't very much like cod5 online but i didn't really like anything about it. cod4 was just refreshing for me. i was sick of the WW2 FPS that i had been playing over the years.

[Langdale Wolf]

I much preferred COD 4, but I'm a bit perplexed as to why you hate WaW so much?

If it's just because of veteran mode, then that counts as self infliction. I only did Semper Fi on Veteran, then thought 'f**k this' and went back to multiplayer.

Map wise, COD 4 is definitely better (the campaign is incomparable - 4 was infinitely better - did you see the pun in that sentence?).

All WaW has over COD 4 is a few extra perks (the revive option on last stand is excellent) which admittedly hardly warrants a brand new game. WaW is great, it's just not as good as COD 4.

But how f**king sweet does MW2 look? I may have to pre-order it, something I've never done before. I know play.com usually send brand new games out a day or so before release.

[Jaybles]

I have not owned any of the call of duty series.

Played them plenty of times round mates and when they bring the game round mine.

Enjoy it enough but i seem to have no drive to buy it.

Started playing both of the campaigns but i just got bored and put on something else.

All i seem to play at the moment are PSN titles. Wipeout being my fav.

Looking forward to uncharted 2, but the main title i am looking forward to is final fantasy.

That will not change unless someone releases a monkey island/grim fandango/broken sword type game.

The world needs more of those

I'm fairly sure I'm the only one on here who gets excited about Rock Band DLC, but they really are outdoing themselves in terms of bands I like!

Following on from last weeks Rancid pack (containing "Last one to die", "Time Bomb" and "Ruby Soho") This week they've added a Blink 182 pack ("Down", "Feelin This" and "The Rock Show") AND a Weezer pack ("My Name is Jonas", "Pork and Beans" and "Undone: The Sweater Song")

Good times

I have a question for any techies out there.

I'm getting a new TV this weekend so will FINALLY join the HD age, and want to connect both my consoles to it.

I know I need to order a HDMI lead for my PS3, but do I need one for my 360 as well? I have the VGA lead for the 360 that says has HD input, but is there a difference in quality between a HDMI lead and a VGA?

I know HDMI leads only cost about £2 from Amazon so it's not much bother to simply order 2.

Anyone know what I'm babbling about?

[Leprekorn]

How old is your 360?

[What??? No beer???????]

If your 360 has a hdmi out on it and your tv has enough hdmi ins on it you might as well go for it. I dont think there's any real difference in quality between vga and hmdi although the vga lead on my 360 restricts the resolutions I can use which is weird.

If you do have a HDMi port go that route other wise use component

the first episode of tales of monkey island came out this month.

only for PC and Wii though.

...PC (on steam) gets a few episodic point and click adventures; there was new sam and max episodes, and now wallace and gromit.

eta: didn't realise but same producer does all of them.
