It's really fun, and has endless potential as people get really good at creating levels. If you have a friend who used to play games back in the day, but doesn't anymore, this will bring them back.

avoid Time Crisis 4 man..........

the game is buggy and the guncon is unresponsive........

look at all the reviews, time crisis titles for the ps2 did a better job....there is an fps mode and even thats clunky i heard..

and Socom.. give socom some time. it has alot of potential once they resolve the server issues

anyone picked up Facry 2 yet? im more curiouse to its online multiplayer and map editor..

Call Sony, get a request for service number, then call up MTC in Coquitlam and drop it off, pick it up in a week

with 1 yr of purchase + proof of purchase = free

otherwise 100+

the problem is from a dead BD unit FYI

Yep, I had the exact same problem and my unit was 2 months out of warranty, got dinged for $189.xx

Sony sends you a 'coffin' (box) for you to send your PS3 out with Purolator if you don't want to go out to Coquitlam

Hey at least you had a good run for 14 months

I sent mine in 1 month after purchase, a SECOND time for loud fan and not reading disc earlier this month.

Seriously WTF with next gen console? my 360 rrod'ed on me once as well

What happened to quality control?

^^the coffin box is addressed to Ont, so it will cost you additional 3+5 days back and forth for not driving to Coquitlam

Mine was sent to Coquitlam, I sent mine out last Thursday and they received it the next day. All service completed today

...But it does take a day or two (maybe three?) to receive the coffin though

...And Sony claims the PS3 has a less than 1% failure rate?

these BD failures seem pretty common

I dunno about that, i liked the Midnight Club 2 on PS2 and beat the computer all the time. I just got this today and it's not that bad. Kinda different setup with this new one, but in my opinion it's an ok game and I'll probably keep this one till i finish it.

ps3 failure rates is close to 3-4%..rumor has it that these dead BD drives are actually dust particles dirtying up the lens.

So it's a bad design

at least it's still better than xbox and their ~30% failure rate.

I've reached the one year mark few weeks ago..gotta hold my breathe now

dub.g...i hear the socom scope is really bugged..is this true? I'm getting mine via mail on monday.

i havent tried sniping in the game yet because im one of the unfortunate fucks who can barely get more than 3 minutes of gaming on any server until either the game freezes on me or i get booted back on the xmb...

the servers are much more stable than the first 3 days of launch.. its just that the problem with majority of the ppl playing socom right now are the freezing issues during game chat, or anything random actually..

the patch should be coming out soon, hope this weekend...

from what i read on official forums regarding the scoping issues

if you crouch down to the ground and try to use the scope to snipe, ur view is still in 3rd person but set in FPS.. basically its like u get pulled back from the sight behind ur guy in 3rd person, and aiming at something is completely off..

I have had my 20gb PS3 since launch and it has been working like a champ (Knock on wood). Only thing I have done to it is upgrade the hard drive to 140gb.
