The Playstation 3 is IDENTITY THEFT

why

bc when I gave my hard drive an upgrayedd last year I lost all my saves and was A Very Sad Jamescobo

that's avoidable u know just back it up

u can copy them to a thumb drive, which would be like, a one-time payment of $5 instead of $10/mo

I did a full backup to a thumb drive before making the switch and then when I plugged it back in to restore everything it said the file was corrupt.

also cloud saves would let you go over to other ppls houses and load up your saves on their PS3s without having to bring over the aforementioned thumb drive

also thumbdrives ain't baller

u love clouds

it's true, thumbdrives AINT baller

new board description imo

Anyone with Modnation Racers who wants some free DLC? I don't know what it is, but Joystiq emailed me a couple of download voucher codes and seeing as how I don't know anyone with the game I figured I'd ask around ILG.

Yeah I'll take it, thanks!

OK, I'll get it mailed out as soon as I'm done with work. Apparently it's good for an extra character that's not available on PSN (no idea if that means "yet" or if it's OMG EXCLUSIVE or whatever).

Got the email, thanks for that.

Pleasure doing business with you. Just out of curiosity (my copy hasn't arrived yet and probably won't for another week or so)- how many of the user-created tracks are just enormous dicks?

huh? all of them!

xp - hack promptly negated by mandatory system update

Seems to be more and more evidence popping up for that HD ICO/Shadow of the Colossus re-release. Makes a guy want to buy a PS3!

CraigG - what do you mean by evidence? they officially announced it yesterday onstage at TGS.

hmmm... i gotta sneaking suspicion that they're going to do that re-release as CraigG says

Last Guardian trailer - apparently they're aiming for Christmas 2011

Ha, I hadn't seen the TGS stuff. Had just heard about it popping up on a couple of retailers listings a couple of days prior to TGS. Also, in my defence, news of it's release was announced yesterday UK time, not Wednesday :P

The Playstation 3 is currently a game system that I bought this evening on my way home from work! No games yet, but I'm ready to embrace all the PS3 exclusives I've missed over the last few years of just having an XBox 360.

I'd recommend starting with Pixel Junk Monsters and Pixel Junk Shooter and getting copies of Valkyria Chronicles (only about 20 bucks) and Demons Souls (only about 30)

Wipeout HD

fuck pixeljunk shooter

im gonna destroy it

Ooh. Valkyria Chronicles looks good, never even heard of it. Looks like it'll be reminiscent of Ring of Red. Demon Souls looks good too, but the Gamespot review using terms like "Brutally difficult boss fights" makes me think it wont be one for me! Will definitely check it out if it's on the cheap though. Planning on getting the staples; Uncharted 1/2, MGS, etc, too.
Still can't believe new consoles don't come with HDMI cables. Dark ages, etc.

btw I cannot stress enough how vital it is that you get WipeoutHD

I only have a wee 1080p TV (23"), while the bigger TV in the house is only 720p. Will my mind still be blown by Wipeout HD?

let me put it this way:

http://leadgraffiti.com/users_images/portfolio/poster-hell-yes-800.jpg

i have a 720p 26" toshiba and wipeout HD is the tits

My 23" monitor doesn't support HDCP, so the PS3 wont display to it :( Fortunately I have the other TV to use, but I'm pretty disappointed. Bought Resistance 2 and Valkyria Chonicles for a total of £20 on my way home to give me something to play. Both are good, but I suspect Resistance 2 needs the full 1080p to live up to it's hype...

Resistance 2 needs to be a better game to live up to it's hype.

what inputs does it have
im sure u could figure out something

It's just got DVI and VGA, but apparently to use the DVI it would still need to support HDCP, and I don't think there's a VGA option for PS3? Either way, I can't see any way out of it but to buy a 40" TV.

fwiw that I always the correct answer

er, is

1080p, well very few ps3 games actually are in 1080p and Resistance certainly isn't - it's simply upscaled on a 1080p tv - so it's going to look (basically) exactly the same as on a 720p tv (the games native resolution is 720p). Many ps3 games (and 360 games) actually run at a lower resolution than 720p

The Playstation 3 is currently a game system which will not be getting LBP2 until next January :(

as an aside, it looks like next January's going to be super-loaded again - what the hell is everyone trying to avoid this year, Black Ops?
