PS3

Ahh sorry to hear Mess, we’ve had that recently in our family as well, but it must be tough to happen around Christmas 🙁

To get back to a cheerier subject though, belated happy birthday to you (old bastard 😛 )

That will change I think when you see this …

What do you think, look good?

That looks interesting Steve, but there’s so much that they would need to get right to make that work on that scale, so I don’t think I’ll be rushing out to get a PS3 based on their ambition. Large scale games like that tend to become too realistic for me, in that you spend most of the game crawling about on your belly just to avoid being hit within the first few seconds after spawning. There also tends to be less room for individual skill due to the hugh amounts of spam you have to fight through. Keeping everyone interested in the objectives will also be a challenge, as it is even on small scale games. WW2 online does something similiar though, and it tends to work, but I’m not sure whether they all play on the one server, and it’s organised a lot differently. It will be interesting to see what becomes of this though.

Joint Operations was shit!
