I'm surprisingly tempted by Red Dead Redemption, yet I know hardly anything about. I'm not sure I'd even like it, especially if it's anything like GTA IV.

Have a look at reviews and videos, It has had stellar reviews from all sites, and looks a damn sight different (and better) from GTA. Very different gameplay.

PS3 version (looks fine to me), some guy just farting around in free roam multiplayer with one of his buddies. They mostly seem to be checking out the physics. Shooting a guy's horse in the head while he's riding it looks super fun. I'm going to do this to people a lot, but from afar with my sniper. That'll be annoying as hell for whoever's on the receiving end SmilieSmilie

Been mucking around in modnations and i'm enjoyable the quirky style and map building. it's like trackmania for PS3. I highly recommend to everyone

Killzone 3, believe Simes - 21/05/10

Those of you who got ModNation Racers, Sony have probably sent the code for Sackboy to the email address you use for PSN.

Just a heads up~

Even though LKR played his copy on my PS3, I don't seem to have a code. So maybe Sony only send the code to the email of the first console that particular disc was used with?

PS. I just realised I could sign in to the (superior) US PSN website with my PSN? Wat.

Nice, now I can use the US version of the PSN portable ID for my sig ;D Cheers.

Edit: Can't use the exact HTML from the website they give you though - the sig shows up in the preview, but doesn't actually stay there after saving it. Had to take the image URL and just use that instead. Don't know how to remove the border around it now either :/

< img border='none' src=''/ >

Use that, put the url of the image between the '' and then take away the spaces from the brackets.

I might check out the site a bit later myself. Would be cool to find a sig that doesn't take up much space like my GamerCard.

So yeah, since LKR is such a nice guy (and for some reason didn't want to play as Sackboy) he gave his code to me Smilie now I have to get it so it doesn't go to waste!

Can you buy PSone Classics from the US store when logged in using your Euro PSN account? Smilie

Is the idea you're getting at there to be able to play the true 60Hz PSone classics over their 50Hz counterparts?

Gonna try fixing my sig now, SuperLink, thanks.

Edit: No border! Smilie Thanks, SL.

Nah, I'm not bothered about playing 60hz games. 50hz never bothered me back in the PS1 days so I don't notice a difference.

I just want to get the Tomb Raider games which have been on the US PSstore since last September. Eidos have told me they submitted the games to Sony Europe but for some reason, Sony have yet to put the games up. Yet Sony have told me it's up to the publishers to get their games on. Someone's lying to me. Smilie

Weren't Eidos bought by Square? That might have affected it somehow

Cubed3 Member

Finally got to the huge open planet that is Gran Pulse on FF13. As great as it is to get away from the extremely linear part of the game, I'm now overwhelmed by the number of directions and tasks I can take. Smilie

Square bought Eidos in early 2009. Since the Tomb Raider's got put up on the US store after that, I'm guessing that's not the problem.

Oh cool, someone's still playing FF13 - it's not just me then XD

Regarding FF9 - it's only just come out on Japan's PS Store this week. A North American release date is still to be confirmed, so I don't expect us to get it any time soon.

On the 19th May, a rep from Sony Europe had this to say when asked about FF9 on the Euro PSN.

As for FFIX, I’ll only say this, it’s okay to start getting excited. Smilie

Im guessing that means we won't have long to wait so the same probably applies to the US aswell. Smilie

ModeratorStaff Member

Blimey, didn't expect that. In the past we've had to wait a while after Japan. Could be sooner than we think then =]

Yeh i'm part of the crew still mucking around in Gran Pulse, still developing each role crystal

ModeratorStaff Member

Wikipedia says the NA release for FFIX is June 15th, and I'm not sure what the source is but for those keeping a track of Sony's blogs it shouldn't be too hard to find.

If that's true then that's under a month after the Japanese release! Hopefully us in Europe won't have to wait much longer either, I'm ecstatic about finally being able to own FFIX Smilie

new LBP level cant wait

Up & Away In Sky Town 2
by: Jump_Button

Any one who played Up & Away In Sky Town should have a idea what this is about. The idea is the player holding on to a balloon to sail across the sky, they are parts where you have to let go.

Hope you find it a light hearted level and dont feel the need to rush. Sky Town levels are special to me and couln't help myself, and i hope you enjoy it.

pics allways make it look bad

Red Dead Redemption Digital Foundry Face-Off.

For those who want it in short, it turned out like this:

- 360 version runs native at 720p, PS3 at 640p.
- 360 version has denser brush in the wilderness.
- 360's LOD has further distance.
- Indoor lighting more complex on PS3, with light streaming in through windows and open doors (both completely absent on 360).
- Framerate sturdier on 360, less so on PS3.
- Slight screen-tear on 360 (very slight, and mostly confined to cut-scenes), none whatsoever on PS3.

And that's about it. Kinda disappointing, but I'm sure R* did their best. I'm not a proponent of the "they're lazy developers!" whenever the PS3 version of anything comes short of the mark. R* are certainly not lazy developers, their tech is very impressive.

I assume that this particular engine and what they're trying to do with it just doesn't suit the PS3 as well as the 360. It's still amazing on PS3, and I'd urge those with the choice to make the same choice I did; Get it for the console which has your most-valued friends list. The online is fantastic in this (better than GTA IV).

I'm loving the game. Been playing nothing else since it arrived on Thursday morning. Literally haven't touched any of my other games at all. Went on an epic hunting session with my mate Josh. We killed the legendary bear Brumas!
