Anything with "book ends" like "xX_[insert name]_Xx" or multiple Z's on the end such as "SkillzZzZzZz"

Who made X's and Z's so cool, huh?

Otherwise "CorridorsOfTime" and "HallofMirrors" made me laugh. A bit cheesey and not at all profound, which is probably what they intended, but each to their own I guess.

Hi, not sure if this was because you have a Clan, or are looking to start one. But if you (or anyone) just want to join one let me know - our clan is "4star", we are level 5 already and have our own Title and Clan Emblem. We don't mind if you're good or not, so long as you can work as a team! If you want an invite post your PSN ID here or on the Comments section of our Clan page in CoD Elite! Thanks

Ya i know about the component cables will not be usable to watch Blu-Ray movies(for less piracy) but im pretty sure you can still play games with component cables, because you cant pirate games by recording the gameplay.

Not on the new PS3s as they won't have the component connector at the back! :(

darn really? i thought just for blu-ray you needed HDMI cables, meh i only have 1 HD tv and its in the main room so only play time would be in the morning and at night, well now i might not get one.( I already had a 80Gb but it got YLOD 2 days ago and repair/refurb is $202, so im hoping for the price drop to be maybe $229)

I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure. I'm gonna buy a new Slim before the 'K' series comes out just in case!

The price for PS3s in the UK are due to drop in October down to around £180.00 - for the 'K' series I think. (And probably due to the run up to Christmas).

The 'K' series will no longer support component cables, only HDMI - I think this is something to do with Blu-Ray Player rules, and it means you won't be able to record in HD from your PS3 as I don't think there is currenly an HDMI recorder available - at least not for a reasonable price.

[QUOTE="ACx7"]This topic was not about Call of Duty. This topic was about Battlefield. God forbid you people defend Battlefield without putting down CoD.blueboxdoctor

Agreed.

This thread is mainly going to attract BF fans to oppose the comment that it could be overrated. Most people who don't like it won't have played it for long, and as such probably won't bother giving their oppinion.

I really think it has become cool to hate CoD, and it seems some BF fans have to slate CoD to justify their preference to BF - not sure why! I prefer MW but do not slate BF, it's just not for me. And most people who hate CoD are because they aren't very good and get frustrated playing it. There are some unbalanced elements in MW2 but they can usually be countered by another weapon, or peak. And it's not like everyone can't chose the same weapons, you may just have to change your setup to counter someone if it helps you to win the game. If you aren't prepared to change your approach in different games then you clearly have the wrong tactics.

This is pretty much what it's turned into. However, when you're playing MW@ and the opposing team ends up calling in an airstrike, having a plane in the air shooting everyone with a machine gun, a helicopter doing the same, and having people noobtubing it up the game can get rather annoying. Granted, this usually isn't the case, but I can see if this is happened the majority of the time someone played MW2 then it can basically just turn you off the game. I'm a fan of BC2 and MW2 online mainly because they're meant to play differently than each other.

Like I said before, BF isn't overrated, it's just the COD haters falling back on it as their reason that COD is horrible to them. I think BF3 and MW3 will both get between an 8.5 and a 9 (at least on GS). Sure, MW3 has the preorders rolling in, but from what I can tell that's only because so many people preferred MW2 of BO (which I've yet to play) and want more of what they liked from that game. Not to mention MW and COD in general has some of the greatest video game marketing this gen. So basically, it's the BF elitists that just like to talk up BF, which doesn't mean it's a bad game or anything, it's just more the fanboys that are annoying. Actually, BC2 has had the most gamebreaking problem for me this gen, and that is the servers which kick me off after 3.5 minutes every single online game, so I can no longer play online (DICE better fix this for BF3, afterall, it's supposed to be COD's main competition).

All good points - nice to see someone else who is open-minded, and approached the subject without bias! :)

It has to be the EXACT same size physically as the current hard drive. Some new 2.5" laptop hard drives are thicker, so be careful. Amazon and Play usually state whether it is PS3 compatible these days.

I chose a Seagate as these are what the fat PS3s came with, and the Slims come with Toshiba hard drives. If Sony chose these they should be good!

Also, I wouldnt' go for 7200 over 5400, as PS3s have overheating problems anyway and it makes little, if any, difference to loading times.

[QUOTE="Console_Gamer93"]

Yes especially now that its cool to hate on CoD and more specifically MW3.

Dogwax

cool or not doesnt stop COD been rubbish drivel my 5 year old daughter could make a better game.

Then why doesn't she make one? Silly, pointless, unconstructive comments like this should be removed. Sales prove IW must have done something right with MW2, and Treyarch/Activision with other CoD titles. They're not without fault, but they are far from "rubbish".
