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:((

    • Linux 7.2's first release candidate gets off to a good start by Paul Hill Credit: Larry Ewing It has been a few weeks since the release of Linux 7.1, and in that time, the Linux 7.2 merge window has been open, where developers can submit their features and patches ready for the upcoming release. That window is now shut, and the release candidate phase has begun so that new features can be tested and further fixes applied. According to the founder of Linux, Linus Torvalds, this week’s release candidate looks “reasonably normal”. Although we are super early in the release candidates, this is a good sign as it makes it more likely that an eighth release candidate will not be needed. Torvalds even mentioned that the update’s stats are only larger than they really are because there was another AMD header drop with a third of the patch just being AMD GPU register definitions, which aren’t big changes but make the code contributed look larger overall. In addition to this, he noted that just over half the patch is drivers, even when excluding the AMD register dump. The rest of the changes are spread out over architecture updates, tooling, documentation, and core kernel updates. In the next week, Torvalds says that he will be chilling out, taking the week “mostly off”. Despite this, he will be reading emails and keeping up with things, so if he is slow responding, now you know why. He said he is hoping for a calm week, but we will just have to see if the second release candidate is actually like that. We should expect seven or eight release candidates before Linux 7.2 is released, so expect it around the end of August. If you missed it a few weeks ago, be sure to check out our coverage of Linux 7.1's release.

    • Never used the G7 Pro, but I've never had a good experience with that style of d-pad and fighting games.
    • And I just bought a seat cushion for my mesh chair. The chair feels nice but the first time I sat in it with boxers, I realized I don't like the feel of mesh on my legs. 😂
