My headset finally arrived today. At last, what, 9 days it took from the UK? Longest I've ever waited for a package. :?

 

SVER > all others.

 

Really? Free shipping options on sites often say 4-10 days, and while I've got quite a few 4 days from order I've also got quite a few 10 business days after order.

Just found all the dew tour videos on the US PSN store.

 

Got 21 of the BMX ones in my download queue.

So don't let anyone tell you you're not worth the earth,

These streets are your streets, this turf is your turf,

Don't let anyone tell you that you've got to give in,

Cos you can make a difference, you can change everything,

Just let your dreams be your pilot, your imagination your fuel,

Tear up the book and write your own damn rules,

Use all that heart, hope and soul that you've got,

And the love and the rage that you feel in your gut,

And realise that the other world that you're always looking for,

Lies right here in front of us, just outside this door,

And it's up to you to go out there and paint the canvas,

After all, you were put on the earth to do this,

So shine your light so bright that all can see,

Take pride in being whoever the [bleep] you want to be.

I joined a new clan on SVER, "Professionals", their clan tag being [PRO]. And I must say, it makes MAG 1,000 times better. The communication, the teamwork, the slaughtering... :thumbup: And the fact that the leader of PRO is great at directing the whole platoon is insane. Game of sabotage with them, first. He began the game with playing the banjo to make the announcement that we leave A & B for Raven to get and we'll all camp at C and destroy them from there. Much more enjoyable! Much more XP! And much more...Duck hunting!

 

There's a video of the duck hunting but it contains some language inappropriate for here so I shall not link.

Got Heavy Rain today. Will give my final thought once I beat it either today or tomorrow.

Also bought it today. Amazing game, the demo was what pushed me to get it.

 

Edit: Carl, you betrayed me, I'm all on my lonesome with Raven. Not that I play MAG anymore.

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

You chose the weaker side! I used my foresight to realise Raven in the long-run would be a complete waste, and I'm glad I did switch back then. :P

 

Note: "Duck Hunting" consists of gunning the paratroopers down before they reach the ground themselves. Great fun.

What do the contract rewards do in MAG? It seems SVER has one for each mode, but I can't figure out what they do...

Never forget. ~creeper face w/single tear~

 

DO YOU HEAR THE VOICES TOO?!?!

They give a bonus to the faction. Like a 10% XP boost or less time needed to make an airstike.

 

Got to lvl 15 today in MAG. Had my best round ever too. 37 kills, 4 deaths. Leveled from 13 to 15 in one match. :D

Just beat Heavy Rain. It took about nine hours.

 

This is a game that is definately not for everyone. It is pretty slow, and takes quite a while to get anywhere. The characters are amazing, the use of live action to create the action makes it just so much more great, the big reveal of who the origami killer is shocked me. The use of frantic button mashing and such showed the frantic state of characters, and really made this game just so much more amazing. Some hiccups with sound were spread out throughout the game and it froze on me twice. Overall though, I had so much fun and thought the story was so fascinatingly complex.I think this is going to be one of those games that nobody played, but helped change the face of gaming.

Is the bonus permanent?

I think it is temporary.

Avoid turning you PS3 on if it's a pre-slim model. They seem to be buggered with the change of date.

What, the date? Mine won't log on to the PSN. <_<

Many believe that the 1980 eruption of Mt. Saint Helens was a catostrophic geological event, in reality it was the day that Jimi Hendrix returned to Earth from the next world and actually stood up next to a mountain and chopped it down with the edge of his hand.

I didn't have any problems when I downloaded the God of War III demo some hours ago.

That is because you either have a playstation 3 slim or one of the 30% or so unaffected by the glitch in the old model.

The firmware problem is generated because the old version of playstation 3 (the 60gb and some 80gb/40gb) had their inner clock/calender set to today being 29/2-2010.

Seeing as that date doesn't exist the playstation reset itself to a earlier date. In my case 1/1-2000

 

This bug caused all online content like trophies, dlc, and other downloaded games not working.

I can also report that any game that has trophy support doesn't even work to play offline because the game can't register the trophy system and therefor it shuts off.

Sometimes if you also try to start a game with trophy support (in my case Borderlands) all trophies will disappear in your trophy list. But don't worry, the trophies are bound to your psn acc and you shouldn't be affected.

 

Well, if anyone have any other questions I might be able to answer them.

You can do anything that isn't affected by trophies (mw2 multiplayer splitscreen)

As you may be aware, some customers have been unable to connect to the PlayStation Network today. This problem affects the models other than the new slim PS3.

 

We believe we have identified that this problem is being caused by a bug in the clock functionality incorporated in the system.

 

Errors include:

 

  • The date of the PS3 system may be re-set to Jan 1, 2000.When the user tries to sign in to the PlayStation Network, the following
    message appears on the screen; “An error has occurred. You have been
    signed out of PlayStation Network (8001050F)”.When the user tries to launch a game, the following error message appears
    on the screen and the trophy data may disappear; “Failed to install
    trophies. Please exit your game.”
  • When the user tries to set the time and date of the system via the
    Internet, the following message appears on the screen; “The current date
    and time could not be obtained. (8001050F)”
  • Users are not able to play back certain rental video downloaded from the
    PlayStation Store before the expiration date.

We hope to resolve this problem within the next 24 hours. In the meantime, if you have a model other than the new slim PS3, we advise that you do not use your PS3 system, as doing so may result in errors in some functionality, such as recording obtained trophies, and not being able to restore certain data.

 

As mentioned above, please be advised that the new slim PS3 is not affected with this error. We are doing our best to resolve the issue and do apologize for any inconvenience caused.

 

 

tl;dr

 

• don't turn on your PS3 if it's the chunky version

 

• don't bother trying to sign into PSN because you won't be able to

 

• the bug appears to be a problem with the internal clock.
