Play.com dispatched my order yesterday at 12:41pm. It arrived at my door about 10minutes ago. Now thats service!. Now i've got to wait until tonight to play it... Damn'd work.

Contemplating taking tomorrow or Friday off to play it tbh.

Still, one day early. not bad! I remember (all those years ago) I pre-ordered Grand Theft Auto 3 from play, and it turned up a day or two early. And I got it for ?20 when it was ?35 in Game.

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

I bought the white one myself to make it easier to distinguish the dualshock from the non dualshock.

That and it matches my 3 360 controllers.

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

You're right .. no way am I going to be able to complete it by tomorrow, god dammit! Looks like I won't be starting MGS4 till Sunday/Monday. :cry:

Also yes - I know about the tricks to kill the End. However when I first played it I didn't know - took me about 45 minutes to kill that sly devil!

Actually i have a couple of friends just like you, its a shame because the old games were/are awesome.

Thought the experience of playing them now is not as good as if you had played them when they were originally released.

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 :(

That demo really isn't the best way to showcase the rumble in the DS3. There are other demo's/games that are far better.

The full GRID game rumble support is much better.

Thanks for the info, but as I have GRiD for the 360 and a wireless wheel, I won't be getting it for the PS3.

I'm off to look for a list of rumble enabled games

Well for me, I have a friend who was obsessed with these games, and his apartment was the apartment we all used to hang out at, sleep over a lot because we were drunk, and one summer he went on a MG bonanza and just kept playing all of the games over and over and over and over, so I almost feel like I have played them myself.

Sweet, i need to dig out my bluetooth headset that ive never used.

Same here. Finally have a use for it (well MGO as well).

Lol!

Me too, I played MGS2 for a bit, but never really got on with it. Probably due to my age back then.

I've loved the look of MGS4 so far and intend to buy it along with a PS3.

My Amazon order got dispatched today, I should get it tomorrow :p

I bought MGS3 last year but I really couldn't get into it. I really didn't like the whole "Bandage your arm/legs" thing but I'll probably go back and play it after I finish MGS4.

The codec thing via bluetooth sounds really cool, I need to buy myself one >.<

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By excalpius · Posted

      Stop asking people that. It's a "No True Scotsman" argument in that you are attempting to discredit the opinions of a person by Attacking the Messenger. The reason that these are logical fallacies is the TRUTH is based on facts as supported by evidence. Nothing else. So, always debate the facts with evidence to reach the truth. Once you learn to do this, you'll be able to recognize when people are fearmongering and lying to you for their own selfish ends.

      It doesn't matter if you didn't directly hear it from person X or Y. Every one of your statements comes straight from the racist, skinhead, anti-immigrant, be afraid of everything, "they are all taking our jobs", etc. etc. mouthpieces. That's where Farag and Putin heard it from too...and used it against the UK. So, while you keep disavowing the people who publicly peddled that position, you keep proving over and over again that those lies influenced you into being tricked when the Brexit vote came around too. In fact, your final sentence makes it crystal clear that it was the racist/anti-immigrant lies you fell and voted for, since you stated that you didn't have an issue with the economic trade issues with the EU. Ahem. To be clear, all of these LIES are EONS old, mate. They are the same fearmongering lies peddled to the same ignorant, gullible cowards by the same charlatans, snake-oil salesmen, and would be demagogues who've been doing this since caveman Ugh lied about his slightly different neighbor in order to steal his land. And, finally, you answered your own previous question. The reason that the EU isn't clamoring to bring the UK back is that they have had enough of people who would rather shoot themselves in the foot than get over their "insecurity issues". It's the same reason the entire world is moving away from the USA as fast as it can...
