agreed ->
Seems it already took place last week, but you'll only see "SEN" at logins. Everything else on the PS3 appears to retain "PSN".

Twisted Metal is finally released! Seems to be selling out at stores, but for anyone lucky or those who preordered, please add your PSN to this spreadsheet if you want to play online with goons! I made this for the Twisted Metal thread, and hopefully will play with some of you tonight and in the future.

There is also this PS3 Goons Database. It needs a little updating, but I think it's a good tool: http://www.klaver.co.uk/ps3goons/.

That's the message you get if you type a password with special characters. It doesn't use your SA login info. You need to create an account first, and the passwords don't allow special characters.

Well, it is a database of goons. :downsrim:

I kind of want to post any of my thoughts at all on Final Fantasy 13-2 but I can't seem to dredge any up. It's like I start playing it and can play it for long periods, but the moment I put it down it's made so little of an impression on me that all my thoughts just fly off like beautiful doves or something. It's not that it's dull, it's that it has so little impact - the plot's so inane that my brain shuts down, while the combat's good but never really has the oomph behind it to feel satisfying.

The game is a lot less linear, though, I'll give it that... now if only it actually bothered to check what you've done, then I'd be happy. I went and found Snowe early, only to have my characters turn around later and wonder where he'd gone and what he was doing. Not to mention I had two-three entries in my datalog telling me the exact same thing.

Shank 2 is an amazing game and the co-op survival mode is loving incredible. Probably one of the best downloadable games released on consoles thus far and if you have friends to play with it's an absolute blast. Can't praise the game highly enough.

Edit: Also SamBishop if you see this, do you know if the Wipeout 2048 Vita content will be coming to the PS3 version as DLC or not? I think you said a while back that Sony Liverpool said yes in an interview, but I've got a feeling that they've changed their minds? God I'd love more Wipeout on PS3.

Man, PSN+ got 6 free games this week. This makes me think that Sony did something horrible that they're not telling us about and are trying to make up for it.

I haven't seen PSN+ get so many freebies at once in a long time. It was enough for me at least to pony up for a 3-month card after being away from it for so long.

Far Cry 2 for free is already great enough IMO, the rest is just icing on the cake.

Sorry, guy.
Dag, the Mass Effect 3 demo (at least in in-game cutscenes) is the jankiest piece of poo poo I've seen in a while. Running at like 15fps, people popping in a second after a camera change. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. But drat...

Wipeout 2048 has all unique tracks, right? Or at least, none that are in Wipeout HD? That would make it rather difficult to play cross-platform multiplayer.

Not if HD got them as DLC, which is what he's asking. Which is what I THOUGHT they said a long time ago too. If they didn't, color me (and quite a few people) as misunderstanding.

That's what I'm saying. If they don't come to HD as DLC, then there's no possiblity of cross-platform multiplayer, which is troubling, considering that they rather blatantly promtoted that.

It's gotta be, they said Revelations was the last Ezio and Altair game. Whether they go with Desmond as the playable character or choose another ancestor, I dunno.

Pretty sure it's going to be another ancestor. I think the historical fiction is what draws most people in, since Desmond has the character depth of a post-it note.

It has all the Wipeout HD tracks, along with about 8 new ones as far as I know (combined with new ships and such). The cross-platform multiplayer has always shown Wipeout HD tracks, rather than any of the brand new 2048 tracks. I have a feeling that the cross-platform play is solely for the old Wipeout HD tracks, which is a really screwy half-assed way of doing things in my opinion but I can't say I'm terrinly surprised, just disappointed that the PS3 version probably won't ever see this new content.

Do you guys think they might ever do modern day free roaming in Assassins Creed? I don't find it the old timey stuff very interesting, although I know others do, but do you think they'll ever do a game set in the present day, with you parkouring about in cities or such?

Seconded. I paid $10 for this when it came out a few years, and I've been playing it almost every day since. For such a underrated game, it's managed to keep a constant online community as well.
