PS3 Fanboy

Wow... just wow. Seriously? "An underwhelming update?" This is one of the best updates ever!

GT5!
Warhawk expansion!
Eight songs for Rock Band! half of them @ a buck each, one of them free! Good songs too, unlike the previous few updates (thrash metal, grateful dead, etc. = all crap)

The Warhawk expansion is frickin awesome. I still don't like the new store though. It's wayyy slower than the old one.

GT5 Prologue - half a game - at full retail price. I'd rather buy it in the store, IF I liked realistic driving simulators, which I don't. But even still, I'd rather have physical media which I can re-sell if I don't like it or stop playing it.

Warhawk update - great for people who have Warhawk. I'd consider buying Warhawk if it had a single-player campaign, but since the whole point of it is multiplayer-only, it's not for me. Sure, the addon is great for Warhawk fans.

USEAPQZ demo - sucks, I'm sorry, but it does. I'm grateful for that - saves me $60. Not that I'd have bought it to begin with, but now it's definite.

Rock Band content - yes, the songs that we would have got over the past two weeks like the 360 users did. What's revolutionary about that? Stay Alive is free, you're right. And if you read my post, I said that was good, and the only thing I was interested in. The other songs, I don't know or don't care about. Unlike most people, I don't buy EVERY Rock Band track just because it's there. I buy ones that I'm interested in playing.

If we had received all of this content divided over the past three weeks, you can bet your ass that many more people than just myself would be bitching about it. And in fact, I wasn't even bitching, I just said I was underwhelmed. I figured that for three weeks' worth of content, we'd get a new smaller PSN game, in the $10 range, maybe a demo of Viking or something,

Actually, there were some updates on Tuesday:

Lair update - wow, the game is playable now! Several months late.

Super Stardust HD Solo - worth the money, I bought it. I love it.

PSP owners have more reason to complain though. After all that time, we got only two videos - of a PS3 game. Wow.

Don't get me wrong, please. I'm not bitching about it. I just mentioned that I'm underwhelmed. If you're not, then it's because you are starved for Rock Band tracks, or you have and like Warhawk. There's nothing wrong with either view.

"On April 15th for Xbox 360 and April 24th for Playstation 3 (since their submission office has been closed for two weeks and we couldn't send them the files) , we will be releasing Mötley Crüe's new single 'Saints of Los Angeles'".

To PS3 Fanboy: April 24th is when 'Saints of Los Angeles' comes out.

YES! I am ACHING to get my grubby hands on PJM:E!

"Simple Man" rocks my socks, but that new Crüe song BLOWS!

"..and a fix for DTS-MA HD"

What's wrong with it? The 2.30 firmware was supposed to enable it.

@ Popfrogs.

DTS HD MA is enabled so to speak, a vast majority of films will work with DTS MA on PS3 now... but people are having problems with Blu Ray films, mainly from New Line. The PS3 is saying it is 7.1 surround sound but the speakers are actually on 5.1 and the rear two are not working.

The problem is with the PS3 dts-MA decoder itself. Some New Line discs such as Pan's Labyrinth uses the rear surrounds using the new DTS-HD Multiple Speaker Playback Configuration labels. The PS3 DTS HD MA decoder does not support this.

The PS3 decoder doesn't know what to do with the DTS-HD Multiple Speaker Playback Configuration labels, hence the loss of the rear two speakers, downgrading it to 5.1. The PS3 recognizes them as 7.1 channels and reports that on its display. But, it doesn't put them into the PCM channels to be transmitted. So, the data arriving at the AVR (surround sound system )is only 5.1.

This only really effects New Line films and it can be fixed by a firmware update. However we need to make Sony aware of the problem. To the majority of people it may not bother them, 5.1 surround is still impressive.

But if you have a 7.1 AVR try Shoot em Up or Pan's to see what I mean, your rear two speakers shouldn't be working.

Its a little confusing but thats as simple as I can explain it, I recommend checking out AVSFORUMS PS3 FIRMWARE 2.3 OFFICIAL THREAD, for more info.

The Surprise was from Konami, not Sony. It was some free Beta codes for US players who did not pre-order MGS4

I feel your pain, I however didn't buy Omega Dawn and look forward to buying them both. However now I have to add more funds, I'm $1 shy on my Wallet.

Yeah... feeling more like "Operation Hosed Over" or better yet, "Operation Cornholed", for supporting the game expansions when they came out.

WTF?

I'm sad.

Games go down in price, get use to it.

I am a big supporter of this game. I feel the same way. I am way pissed off right now, but would be stoked if i hadn't already bought one.

Screw Warhawk. The fact you can't use the Dropship and APC on the same map is complete garbage. That was the only reason I was going to buy Broken Mirror. But now I have to pick between playing a map with dropships or playing with APCs is stupid. I paid $10 for Dropships to be replaced by APCs for another $10.

Im done with Warhawk. Complete garbage.

GTA is 11 days away.
