GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

Hey all

I was just in the mood for making a blog so here it is.

Recently I have been feeling blue about my lack of Playstation 3 useage, however I feel things will turn around for it.

For instance, I am now enjoying Uncharted 2 multiplayer beta, competative I still don't find hugely great, but the co-op is quite good. I can see myself using that to get higher level to unlock more perks to use that will lead to an improved competative online experience. That and the awesome single player on the first game has got my interest very much raised for the new game.

Also, some of you on the UK board will know I am interested in importing some Playstation 3 games. I have never done this before so am looking for any sites that are good with delivery times so any suggestions?

I am hoping to pick up:

BlazBlue - Sounds a promissing fighting game, something I am not hugely experienced of or into but this has something about it I want to try.

Demon Souls - A title I had no interest in until the hype started around it. It seems to be reviewing very well and I could see myself playing a nice RPG as I have completed Fallout 3 and Fable II so another game thats reasonable lengthed would be taken aboard well from myself.

Railfan - I love trains and video games. Being a bit of a nerd also got me into Train Simulator on PC so this game looks awesome for me to get into.

Other games I am interested in currently:

Forza Motorsport 3 - Looks very impresive from a quick look video on a rival web site. I am going to try the demo again (unless I deleted it which is a strong possibility)

Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 - Keeps sounding better and better, and after a friend showed me a funny video of players having a laugh on there it has inspired me further.

Outside of gaming, I have been mainly watching The Simpsons and Futurama after having got a couple of seasons of them.

Anyway, that is all.

"Fry, what in Sega Gensis happend to you?"

Haven't touched my PS3 in ages, but I will get to it, probably before Thanksgiving here in the US. I had always wondered about Railfan because I remember when I heard the CAGcast (Cheap Ass Gamer Podcast), Cheapy D (One of the two hosts), would often talk about that one since he also likes train sims. If you're gonna get Demon Souls, just be aware as I hear it's a really, really, really, really difficult game. I think I'd get Forza 3, and just not play the second, since that one has uneven achievements in terms of numbers.

Yeah, Futurama! Which Simpsons season? I only have 1-9.

@Zeromus1337 - I got season 8, "Brother from another series" was the selling point as well as the price. I also have seasons 2 and 3. Futurama was season 4.

I don't own a PS3, but I'd like to get my hands on one.

I've only heard positive feedback from Blazblue, not sure if it is worth importing though.

i think uncharted 2 looks awesome. but the 360 also has a new game called Halo 3 ODST which is very good. i have been playing it alot and i like it. lots of fun. as far as those new games you mentioned, i want forza 3 and MW2. i think those will be good games. i also want brutal legend. and who doesn't? if you like jack black and heavy metal music you will love this game!

Yeah, the PS3 is looking sweeter and sweeter with each passing day. And Modern Warfare 2 is gonna be awesome!

I saw Forza Motorsport 3 available for pre-order not long ago, but I have decided to wait till it's half price or something similar, because the first one, and the PGR games, seem to go down in price very quickly.

I game on my PS3 nightly. I'm picking Brutal Legends up in about 1 hour, after my shower (I didn't sleep. Too excited.)

As for Futurama, "What if...that thing I said?". One of my favorite lines.

WARNING: Demon's Souls is not a nice RPG at all... LOL - it's brutally hard and quite unforgiving, but it is also beautiful, and very addictive, so I'd still recommend it, but then again, i'm also a bit of a masochist LOL

Get LBP.... i'm telling you, it's a freakin blast and it's SOOOOOOOO CUTE!!!! I never thought i'd get into it but it's really quite adorable, and very fun.

There are no excuses if u have been thinking to get a PS3 and have been delaying it because there arent exclusives then you cant use that anymore THIS IS THE TIME TO GET A PS3!!

@macrules_640 - yeah its a nice console.
@loopy_101 - Yeah I am thinking that now myself, I may not bother importing it as its still expensive with the likes of Forza 3 and more out soon.
@skyyfox1 - Yeah ODST I have already, it is a good game but I dont know if I can truthfully say its as good as Halo 3/Uncharted 1 to be honest. Brutal Legend I had some interest in but really I am not sure about getting it for a bit, maybe when I find there is nothing new out I want then I may punt on that.
@Shiggums - Its a nice machine, although I don't use it that often if I am honest.
@kingkilla3 - Maybe, I can see your point. I am thinking this may be the game I get next pay day as I quite like the look of the limited edition.
@BessenStock - Which episode is that from? Brutal Ledgend does look cool but I am going to wait and see as Uncharted 2 is out the same day and I know which of those two I will more likely get on with.
@SymonDezyn - Maybe I will skip Demon Souls, its expensive to import and the more I hear about the difficulty, the more offputting it sounds. I hate it that some games dont have a save as you are playing feature as I cant spend hours doing levels some days so essentially if a game is not 20 minutes for a level or saving during the game like Gears of War I tend to not play it as much as I get fed up of having to grind to a save point.
@NuKku - I own a PS3 already lol.

It's from Anthology of Interest II, I believe. Professor makes a What-If machine that tells you your dreams and you have to ask the machine a question like "What if I was a giant?". Fry says something like. "Well, I'm really good at video games. I used to play them all the time. It would be cool if the world we live in was a video game." then the Professor says "Can you put that in the form of a sentence?" and then Fry replies "What if.... that thing I said?". As for Brutal, I'm almost done with it. The reason I picked BL over Uncharted 2 (I beat the 2nd one 2 times in a row, loved it) is because it will literally sit on my shelf next week if I get it. Borderland comes out on the 20th and that game is going to consume me if it's anything like I'm imagining. Fallout 3 with co-op and a level cap of 80. What can go wrong?

o i know i was talking about everyone in general
Posted Oct 14, 2009 6:48 pm PT
@BessenStock - ah yes, thats a great episode. I am quite a fan of all the characters, although Hermies lines tend to stick out some what. "Sweet honey bee of infinite". Borderlands does indeed look quite good.
@NuKku - Oh right, did you get Uncharted 2 by the way?
Posted Oct 15, 2009 2:14 pm PT
no not yet
Posted Oct 15, 2009 4:11 pm PT
I'm the opposite. Haven't touched my 360 since I got my PS3. I keep it around for all the XBLA titles I have and for the random exclusive title I feel I have to play, but the last one I ever did was Lost Odyssey. *shrugs* It currently lives at my folks house. My father really likes Ace Combat, and a few other games I bought for him. At least it's getting usage now.
