Yeah, I get that, UGA. I've seen plenty of phased roll-outs. The thing I guess that's surprising me about that is I can't figure out why it was effectively a state-by-state rollout. I imagine they must have regional re-directs or something like that ... just confusing, is all.Quote:

IS the playstation home worth creating/ ( is it free regardless? ) the only thing I may buy is extra teambuilder slots haha
but I like the idea of the avatar and stuff as long I dont have to pay for it in the future haha
in other words - will playstation home always be free ?
yes, i've logged in as of now
To my knowledge, PS Home is free and likely always will be free, though it doesn't have anything to do with buying TeamBuilder slots. Those are sold in the PS Store.Quote:

Ram, your question doesn't make sense. What does your TV have to do with the size of ... anything?
Jeff, you shouldn't leave open ended questions like this laying around the forums :DQuote:

I use Tritton AX Pro's and they are terrific. I'm not a sound snob or anything like that, they get the job done for me. On Black Ops I can hear where people are coming from just by listening for voices, reloads, foot steps, pulling the pin on a grenade, and shots. Also when it comes the faint sounds...I can hear sounds that were never there...like the crackling of a fire in the background while I'm running. Also when a chopper comes I can pretty much close my eyes and then when I open them my guns pointed at the chopper...if that's good enough direction quality. You have to set them up a little though, the basic settings out of the box suck and are not good. I got my bass and rear speaker turned up a little more for Black Ops games because I like foot steps behind me to be louder so I can turn quicker and notice it.
Overall if you don't wanna spend almost 250$ I'd just buy the AX Pro's for 150$. They are good quality to me, I enjoy watching movies with them on and everything. The best part about headsets is everyone else in the house or neighbors hear nothing really unless they are close...but on the inside you're getting blasted away by explosions and everything else haha.
UPDATE MORE STUFF: Only warning about these Surround Sound headsets is all the wires... There is only one wire leading to the headset, but there is a lot more on the box. The AX Pro's use a sound box that you can increase the sound area(How far you pick up sounds from) and you can make volume changes. The awesome thing about all that is once u get it set up you probably won't have to touch it again. Put some zip ties on it and clean it up.... The headset has an inline controller that you can adjust FRONT/LEFT/RIGHT/REAR/BASS volume and the Chat volume without having to make a move while you're gaming. The AX Pro's use an Optical Wire to plug into the PS3.
So I am now in New Orleans and have hooked up the PS3. It immediately said download System Update so I am doing that. Hoping to have some PSN but not holding my breath.
I'm connected in MS so should be no prob.
This might be the first thread to make 10k views in the Other Video Games section....thanks to the PSN going down :D
It's probably been good for traffic on a bunch of sites lol.Quote:

If you've been keeping score, we've missed out on three regularly scheduled PlayStation Store updates since the service went down last month, preventing users from downloading items like the already long-delayed PSN RTS Under Siege. There's a lot of content to get caught up on -- and to get us there, the storefront will receive updates "multiple times per week once commerce functionality is restored," according to the latest PlayStation Blog FAQ.
"We will update the PlayStation.Blog with information on timing of the Store restoration," adds the FAQ, "as well as the full list of new content as each publish occurs." If you're the type who likes to spend exorbitant sums of money on each batch of PSN additions, you might want to steel yourself for the oncoming deluge.

Unfortunately I have every game they mention for PS3....
But 60 days free PS+ is good.
I don't have Super Stardust HD or Wipeout HD + Fury so looks like those two will be my choices. I will say that the movie rental weekend will be nice, so long as I'm around that weekend.
I don't have any of those games. I don't know what I want to get.
