.KICK Posted June 4, 2010 Author Share Posted June 4, 2010 ?24.99 at Play for PS3/360 version. Activision are aggressively undercutting the opposition it appears. Yup, go go go. Awesome price for an awesome game. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfaaqua Posted June 4, 2010 Share Posted June 4, 2010 Been playing this since yesterday on the PC, runs smooth as butter What the ****? Smooth as butter? You have got to be kicking me...... Retail version sucks. I mean it really sucks. Very choppy, a sound glitch that sounds weird, when powerups hit the game looks like a slideshow, random crashes, etc..... Now Update 2 is a WHOLE nother thing.........Very smooth, that ****ing annoying sound glitch has gone away, powerup hits look great, and the game plays out how it is suppose to..... The only thing is that the random crashes are still there but alot less than the retail version. Update your game to the latest update. You wont regret it.

Sikh Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 And you got the controller to work how? The only supported controller is the Xbox 360 one.... Nope. As most people think but dont know, if you get the RIGHT CONTROLLER, you can make it work. Logitech introduced Logitech Gaming Profiler in 05 I believe. Included with most gamepads they offer(i think), the software allows you to map keys to each button. So basically, I went to Keyboard layout 1(wasd,etc) and then selected it. Then closed game, loaded up blur.exe in my profiler and started mapping buttons. R1 =s W, L1 = S, etc. One I do all this, profiler is automatically saved everytime I make a change, but just incase, I always run the game through the profiler. Now, after this my controller controls the game. Ive done this for EVERY GAME I PLAY that i used my gamepad for. I never bothered actually changing the game settings as thats a bitch and pointless when I can create a new profile, map some keys, and done.

Xerxes Posted June 5, 2010 Share Posted June 5, 2010 Picked up Blur on PS3 today, it's awesome :D the AI sure is aggressive though! even if I wanted too I can't play it online as it insists the Blur servers are not available :/ I'm not too bothered though, I prefer offline single player anyway.

DrunknMunky Veteran Posted June 6, 2010 Veteran Share Posted June 6, 2010 ^ first 50 units only apparently & shortly after they tweeted it they said there was only a few left. Worth trying though, but they never update the prices til they are back in the offices on Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.KICK Posted June 6, 2010 Author Share Posted June 6, 2010 Yeah, they did say first 50 units only but its worth a try anyhow. If anyone wants it on PS3, ShopTo has lowered the price. Blur (PS3) ?24.85 @ ShopTo.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigitalE Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 So which has better online play at the moment, 360 or PS3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookie Posted June 17, 2010 Share Posted June 17, 2010 360. The PS3 community is dead apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalE Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Well, I've discovered that online play is absolutely ridiculous.. I'm in first and have a nice lead, then I get hit by 18 shunts or bolts at the same time... I wreck, and drop back to dead last. The same guy wins every single time and I finish last. Yeah, this happens every race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
