Re: Return of the Weekly Rotating Games Night (PS3)
I played it when it first came out. It was ok - if you could get used to the controls. Anyone have any idea how to speed up the Metal Gear update?

Re: Return of the Weekly Rotating Games Night (PS3)
If you mean what I think you mean, that's just silly. Warhawk and BFBC2 are standout multiplayer experiences, and Transformers felt bland and generic.
Stick with Uncharted 2 for this type of game IMO. It's much more solid all around.
It's not super twitchy. It has customizable classes. Controls are responsive and fairly intuitive. I've played a handful of matches and nothing really feels overpowered. Good and a nice change of pace but not great. I'd say I got my money's worth for under $20.

My copy of BFBC2 arrives on Wednesday. My wife isn't going to be happy with you guys and your bad influence...

I meant controls and gameplay.

Anyone have any requests for next week? I guess there wasn't much interest in MW2 last night ran into a couple of guys i played CoD4 with for a handful of matches then joined up with Origami and nic44. I miss tactical knives/commando douchbaggery. Good times.

I don't even think the file was that large just the connection to the server was crap.

I don't know how active the online community is especially w/ KZ3 coming out. It's nothing we haven't seen in any other game. All the maps are dark and gritty. The controls are sluggish compared to CoD and BFBC2. I don't know if anyone else has it. I was thinking about it for $11 too - just to have it.

I don't know that I would ever play it. I've had Resistance 2 since the summer sale at Gamestop and I've only ever updated and bought a DLC pack but not tried it. I don't bother with the single player generally as my game time is relatively limited and I really enjoy MP.

I have Killzone 2. Single player alone is worth $11, imo. I can't speak for the MP because I've never tried it, but I'd be down for a weekly thing if other people picked it up. According to reviews, the online part is supposed to be it's strong point.

Wind knocked my power out last night. Sorry I missed it, Cruz.
I have about 350 hours clocked in Metal Gear Online. It was pretty much my only game for 2+ years and I loved it. Not many maps, but it is a lot of fun if you enjoy stealth games.

I wouldn't mind getting together and checking out Onslaught mode in BFBC2 sometime. Just need 4 players to commit.

I don't know if I pushed enough for it or if the interest isn't there. I may push next week for it before the new map packs hit.
you, me and nic have it - maybe we can get it going soon. 2 weeks from now? or sooner?

If anyone is interested I threw Killzone 3 up on next Wednesday for the early adopters / renters to try out the multiplayer.

Re: Return of the Weekly Rotating Games Night (PS3)
I've just picked up BFBC2, have MGS4, CoD:BO, Burnout, Uncharted 2, Red Dead Redemption, and Little Big Planet.
I'll try to make any night where those games are on the calendar-- though I've been a bit inconsistent lately because I've been pulling some long hours while trying to get a new job.

Itching to play some Burnout.
