Thanks for the alert, Lauguu! I'm gonna go watch it in a minute!

BTW, on an unrelated note, my 360 came back from Microsoft today!!! :) It was picked up, repaired, and shipped back to me in less than a fortnight! That's a bloody record (note, it came from Frankfurt, Germany)! :D

Your order has been dispatched.

Will it get here today???? No sign of my DualShock 3 yet :/

:D

not a chance matey! :p

gameplay reported mine dispatched at 8:30 this morning, it'll have actually gone out last night if I'm lucky, but I'll def get it for tomorrow.

Would anyone be up for a few MGO Matches this weekend ?

I'll give it a go.

I'll be out fri or sat night, or maybe both. Probably just one of the nights though.

I don't think I'll be able to get MGS4 on release.

I can afford it, I guess. But I don't think I'll be able to make ends meet this month if I get it! Haha.

Damn. I shouldntve bought that iPod Nano 8G for my friend. :D

Just completed MGS2 about 10 minutes ago ... let's see if I can start and complete MGS3 by tomorrow!

I'll be impressed if you do! MGS3 is a whole different game compared to the others. It's also the longest in the entire series (in my opinion). If you've played it before, you'll probably know what to to when you come across the end if you didn't kill him earlier! Simply change the date on your PS2 clock about a week forward, then play the game, and he has died of old age! :D

Guys, remember to keep using spoiler tags in the coming days, i wont be able to play it but i will still check this topic, so be nice... im picking up my copy tomorrow but wont be able to play it till next week, damn family obligations :(

Are those Gioteck triggers? Are they good? I might get some for my controller.

I think so, yeah. Got them off of a magazine ages ago. Great improvement for driving games (though still not as good as the 360 pad)

gawd imo that's ugly with bright colours and dark buttons/sticks look ugly :\

I was debating on whether or not to get a black one (ruled silver out straight away) I quite like the contrasting colours.

I'll probably end up modding it with some blue LED's too.

Am i the only one who bought a black DS3? The console is black so a black DS3 makes sense and its cheaper.

I like the fact that it's different, for a start I know which one to grab out of the box at a glance.

Not sure how much cheaper a black one would have been, I got this for ?33.96 delivered.

I must say, I'm not that impressed with the rumble though, I was just playing the GRiD demo, and it's really weak compared to GRiD on the 360:((

    • So, recently, I saw on the news (yes, on this website) that Samsung is introducing features where it can provide education using AI-powered sets, and because of this, I got concerned about whether the AI gives out wrong info during education sessions, causing controversies in the process. What are your thoughts on this? 
    • TCL's Bang & Olufsen soundbar is 40% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The TCL Design Series A65K is currently $299.99, down from $499.99. That's 40% off and $200 saved on a soundbar tuned by Bang & Olufsen, which is not a combination you'd normally expect at this price point (purchase link below). Bang & Olufsen doesn't typically show up in the sub-$500 category. The Danish audio brand is known for speakers that cost several times more, so having their acoustic tuning on a $300 soundbar is very appealing. TCL handles the hardware, B&O handles the sound engineering, and the result is what the company calls "accessible luxury." Still, accessible luxury isn’t full-fledged luxury, so don’t expect wonders. But this is a decent soundbar, nevertheless. The A65K is a true 3.1.2 channel system with nine physical drivers, including genuine up-firing height speakers for Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Many soundbars at this price simulate overhead effects through virtual processing, rather than actual hardware. So, you’re getting the real deal. The design is unusually slim for a system with Atmos compatibility. The bar is just under 2 inches deep and should fit beneath most TV screens. The wireless subwoofer is also compact at roughly 14 x 14 x 5 inches. Total output is 460W, and you can connect to the soundbar via HDMI eARC, Bluetooth 5.3, or USB. There are also eight sound modes through the TCL Home app and an AI calibration capability. Although it’s worth mentioning that AI capabilities in most of these devices are inconsistent, to say the least, and that shouldn’t be the biggest selling point. Still, at $299.99, the A65K is a strong buy for anyone who wants a soundbar that sounds and looks noticeably better than what this price range usually offers. And the Bang & Olufsen branding surely sounds nice - pun intended.
