    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    You can test the weapons in the single player campaign.. Had the most annoying game ever last night. I was dominating a FFA on WMD and got to 10-0 easily only to lose connection. My Killstreak record is 13 and I reckon I would have beaten it the way I was playing.. GODAMIT connection loss sucks.

    Final Fantasy VII Advent Children on PSP is pretty good. Prequel to FF7..

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    M16 to level 14 then for me, the FAMAS is the way to go. I only use the AK74U on close quarter maps and even then, generally stick with the FAMAS.

    Fallout New Vegas: Impressions Inside!

    Black Ops should be called Crack Ops. Too difficult to stop playing, especially now my friends are all online. I keep finding myself wide awake at 2AM saying ''Just. one.. more... game.'' o_O I guess that is what a crack addiction is like. :hmm: Hopefully I will get round to playing through...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    To be honest, I use last stand a lot and as much as it may piss others off, I love getting a killstreak from being downed and I love keeping my killstreak going upon being revived. If you play 2 player split screen with both players having last stand it is brilliant. I will admit it can be...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I'm officially addicted to gambling - sticks and stones is pretty much the only Blops i have played over the last week or so. What a game! Soo many tomohawk kills from downtown! My best record so far is 9 tomohawks and 8 sticks in 1 round, but it is getting a lot harder now i am playing for big...

    Final Fantasy 13

    10-2 on your list!? You taking the piss? That game was TOTAL WANK. Should never be mentioned ever again. FF VIII was my favourite and also the 1st I played. I loved 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12. Never played 11. 13 IMO was poor. Piss poor compared to 12, which I thought was fantastic. 10-2 and 13 are the...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I went into a gun game lobby on my PS3 last night. Went to the level loading screen where it said awaiting challenge... 1.. 2... 3... It got all the way to ..108 before returning to the lobby screen and disconnecting me... Very frustrating. Got up to 7 kills in a row on TDM and got...

    I hope that is the case, because if not I am considering throwing my toys out the pram, shelving Blops and then doing some real time search and destroy on Treyarch HQ. That is if I can get in the lobby.. :D

    EA announces new SSX game. SSX fans vomit.

    Don't know what they were thinking the game designers. I would personally like to see more of the same SSX that I knew and loved, maybe with bigger, more accessible mountains. However, I will hold my judgement until I see some gameplay footage. If the gameplay is still as awesome as I remember...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Being consistent with the right weaponry actually will make a better player. Getting plenty of practise with one weapon will ensure you have better odds winning in a 1 on 1 with someone who is using a weapon not practised with as much. Therefore, by using statistically the best weapon...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    The G11 is my new gun of choice with the low power scope as attachment. Fantastic rate of fire and effective at short and medium range, which is where I like it. Finished a few games last night with awesome K : D ratios using the G11. Not sure I want to prestige yet!

    Advice with DNS errors needed

    Scottmac, you were spot on.. Downloaded Netstumbler and changed my router's channel to 6 as there was next to no traffic on that channel and a few other users on the channel I was using previously. I played on the PS3 online for a good few hours last night with no sign in problems and no sign of...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I was not ignoring your response, which was accurate and did explin well why experience did not lead to success. I was simply stating that it is a huge fail to release a game of this magnitude and totally balls up the multiplayer (biggest) aspect of it.. :return facepalm to sender:

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I just wish they had put their all into the PS3 update... No party and slow/faulty matchmaking = Not much fun. I must admit, I didn't own MW2 on release, so can't comment on the lobby/party problems that were around then, but it is total BS to say Treyarch are not to blame as they can't copy...

    Advice with DNS errors needed

    Many thanks for the much needed advise. A couple of return points. Signal strength is shown at 100% (only 1 wall between the router and the PS3). Also, I have a 4.5 meg download and 550Kbps Upload. I only use one of my devices on the network at a time, so I don't think my netbook and PS3...

    Advice with DNS errors needed

    I need some advice - I have had my PS3 for years and I have used it on several different ISPs over this time and not had many issues. I have moved onto BT (British Telecom) as my ISP and they have provided me with a BT Home Hub. I don't recall having this problem immediately, but over the last...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    PS3 gamer - WTF is with the party/lobby/matchmaking in this game? I have never had problems with MW2 and rarely played without my buddies alongside me, but in Blops I have yet to get into a game with my party. I can join/be added fine, but then when the party joins a game I get booted out...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I hope that it is just the initial numbers of players causing the party/lobby problems, but I still think the in-game friends menu is a pita. Why does it not show if there is space to join the lobby? Instead you have to attempt to join, usually only to be told lobby is full. MW2 had it much...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    PS3 seems to have terrible party problems and I keep losing connection with lobbies. Driving me mad... I would say it is my connection that is causing the problem, but MW2 never had any of these issues for me. I have to say, I like the multiplayer gameplay, but they reeeally need to fix these...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    Sniper rifles were a bit good in MW2, but I disagree with Kabob. The snipers will come, it is just a bit early and no-one knows the best sniper positions yet. I was playing on the snowy multiplayer map on Demolition and found a real treat of a spot near the mountain pass. Racked up 6 kills as...

    Call of Duty: Black Ops

    I have always been reluctant to remove stopping power from my classes when playing MW2. I just don't like the thought that someone with the same weapon as me has an advantage in a 50:50 situation. I in the last couple of months moved to hardcore moshpit, which I find soo much better than...

    10 years ago...came out the PS2.

    The PS2 was truly awesome. There were some truly EPIC games on that console. Some of my fondest memories surround Friday nights gone by, playing Timesplitters over many beers with my best mate, who was always difficult to beat.

    PS3's Move is a roaring success - 2.5 million units in one month

    I kind of agree, but my main point of contention is the price to the consumer, which is astronomical. If I was inclined to go with Move, I would buy both controllers and the gun attachment, which would cost me over £100... That's before I actually have the games to use them with. I can't get my...
