Official PlayStation 3 Thread 3: Rise of the Machines

it does.

I found the manual!

I've read that the headset doesn't work, if your router's settings are NAT 3. Has Sony fixed that problem?

ive had nat 3 and all my headsets have worked fine. remember that most PS3 games are PTT (push to talk), cap thought his headset was broken in warhawk until he figured that one out.

you also need to sync it with your ps3 and make sure you set the input outputs on voice communication to the headset.

I finally took some time to address my PS3's slow downloads. It turns out that setting a static IP and placing it in a DMZ makes a world of difference. My UPnP is enabled as well, and my NAT is open, but those were already set that way.

I went ahead and set my PS3 to a static IP. The R&D demo loaded within 15 minutes. Thx for the headsup.

Everyday Shooter is awesome but it really needs 360 degree shooting instead of 8-way. Still should be a definite purchase for anyone that likes the genre.

R&C is confirmed as a never purchase but that's a damned nice graphics engine. LOL @ ripping off Sonic Adventure 2 yet having no sense of speed whatsoever.

Sony's decision-making process explained.

a) that was dumb

and

b) phil harrison has nothing to do with hardware decisions of the platform, none of the comic applies to him.

This would normally be confirmed as a "never purchase" for me as well. I never got into any of the other Ratchet and Clank games, but admittedly I never really gave them a shot passed the first level.

Plus, I've been surprised by some of the games I've enjoyed on the PS3 so far. I didn't think there was any way in hell I would end up liking Resistance, and I found it to be more than fun enough to play all the way through. So, I decided I'll give another Insomniac game a try, and I pre-ordered Ratchet...In other words, I need as many games as possible to justify that $600 price tag

I just couldn't get into the R&C demo. I was bored the whole way through.

like i said more R&C, it does it for you or it doesnt.

Simpsons > R&C on my purchase list. That demo was great.

I actually enjoyed the R&C demo, and I've never been a big series fan. I think it was the disco-ball gun that won me over. You just can't go wrong tossing a grenade into a troop of line-dancing robots.
