back on topic..

Is Motorstorm ever going to get a 2-player mode? I picked up a 2nd controller so my kids could play before realizing it was single player only.

I'm 1 hour and 20 minutes into Uncharted and it says I'm 20% done. Ouch. I really like it so far though.

Ratchet was my other option, so of course I'm second guessing my decision to go with Uncharted now.

My PSN id is Xenomorph74. Lt Ripley was already taken. I want to nuke them from orbit.

The only games I have are GHIII and Rock Band (Just bought it today).

Patiently awaiting Gran Turismo.

Edit: I forgot that I got the Motor Storm PS3 bundle, but I haven't opened the game yet.

The way it reads is that you were buying them cheap at GS and returning them sans receipt for full price credit at BB.

can add me to the list too if ya want: illini420
Been playing a bunch of Call of Duty 4 online lately, awesome game. should hold me over until GTA4, unless they delay it again.

also, is the motorstorm 2-track download on sale this week? I thought is was previously more than $2.99

Anyone get it yet? Is it worth $2.99?

I tried to buy it but it was wanting me to add at least $5 to my "wallet" before purchasing. Last year when I bought Flow I was able to just pay the price of the download. Is this new policy or is there a trick to get around it?

Thank you in advance!!

Yep, blockbuster. I did the same thing, although not on that scale. These are all trade ins, not returns without a receipt. I traded in Darkness, which I got free with Bioshock before Christmas, for $32. A Wii Donkey Kong game, free with Tomb Raider from Amazon for $30. Snagged some of the $9 clearance PS3 games at Circuit City, traded them in for $20+. Forza/MUA used at GS is $20, trades in for $32. Etc etc etc. It takes some time, research, and footwork, but it was fun and a great deal.

Ahh, that's where the lines are crossed. Sorry for the mix up.

BB = Best Buy
BBV = Blockbuster Video

Add me too: KJK

Had one since launch, just not using it much. I did however beat Heavenly Sword last night. Good game, just not much replay value though. I want to fire up RFOM again soon, anyone know if you can do co-op online?

Add me to the PSN list as well: shiv2099

Been very happy with the PS3 so far, aside from issues with PS2 game peripherals not working with the PS3, even with the adapters out there (GH and Taiko being the main ones).

How are the PS EYE Games on PSN? I'm tempted to get the EYE camera, and some of those screensaver games seem neat to just leave on...like the fish tank one.

They're cool screen savers, the actual games (theres two) are lame.

Yeah, the blurb game is a bit hard to control IMO, but it was fairly fun for the first 10 minutes or so. Considering the games are shared among my brother and friends (up to six), they are cheap! Well, i'm the one paying all the time though

I'm in love with Blast Factor... I like it better than Everyday Shooter and Stardust HD. Well, for one thing, i love the watery feature (pushing the enemies to one side).

When using a PS3 to stream MP3's from a PC, is there a way to quickly have it just play all of an artists songs? Can you also set it to randomize? A few times when I've streamed stuff I've looked for either of those options but haven't found either. When I pick "All Artists" then pick one, it then goes to all their albums instead of all the songs like the 360 does .

Since I don't understand the Versus title, I'll just say bring on Final Fantasy VII Versus VI.

Versus XIII is an Action-RPG from the creators of Kingdom Hearts.

Here are two new real-time screenshots:
