Guess what? You wont see anything fancy from me this week. "And why is that son?" Well I've bought this game with some dude blowing his brains out on the cover. I need to hurry and get back to it. I've also been teasing some of you about a really awesome FNF post. It's turning out to be amazingly big and too much for FNF. Keep an eye out for it in the coming weeks, it's going to be rather cool. Sully approves, that's all I can say at the moment. Now where were we?

This one is for you Shipero. Enjoy it!







8PM EST: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Host: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole)

Moose wants to punch you in the face and you want to punch old man Jimbo in his face. C'mon admit it. I would totally join but Borderlands, yeah, that's it.




9PM EDT: BlazBlue Host: JackofNoTrades(PSN: JackofNoTrades85)

Jack wants to know if you're interested in [b]Tekken 6[/i]. He's gonna pick it up next week if you want we can change BlazBlue with Tekken 6 or host them both or whatever you crazy fighting game lovers want. But for now you can beat Jack up in BlazBlue. Do it!




10PM EST: Uncharted 2 Hosts: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole) and FalconReaper (PSN: FalconReaper). Possible other Backup Hosts:InfraredChimera (PSN: InfraredChimera) barcaxavi06 (PSN: barcaxavi06)

I can't even begin to describe the awesomeness of this game. I think Corak's PSN comment should be sufficient: "Holy Mother Uncharted". Join pretty much every goddamn PS3 owner on the planet and have a great night!




12AM EDT: Socom: Confrontation Host: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole) or y0j1mb0 (PSN: k0wb0y-b33b0p)

Join up with Moose, Jimbo, Pikeman and others to snipe, shoot, stab everyone who tries to harm any Dtoider.



SPECIAL ENTRY



This game is great. That's all you need to know. It's is going to be quite hard to organize anything here because of the way the game is set-up. There is a thread about who wants to play with who and stuff. It is called: Borderlands Squads or whatever you want to call it Check it out if you want. I've decided on my squad so you can stop sending me money and naked pics of your sister and mum.


Have fun tonight with all those new kick-ass games! It's truly a good year to be a gamer.

Yours,

Takeshi

Captain Lou Albano July 29, 1933 – October 14, 2009

There isn't much info.

Let's all do the Mario one more time. I think Captain Lou will watch us from somewhere and love it...

The PSP®go is out. I've heard it's so awesomely powerfull it can actually play PS3 games. Might be a rumor though . Follow me to see if we can play FNF on the Go tonight.

Oh yeah, these guys think is such a bad ass hand-held they wrote a song about it. I think they bought 3 in one go (yes is just made that joke). Because the song is called Go Go Go!






8PM EDT: BlazBlue Host: JackofNoTrades(PSN: JackofNoTrades85)

Well, I guess you could play it if you have enough fingers to spare. Free cramps included but no problems here.




9PM EDT: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Host: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole)

As you can see it's totally playable... If you choose Serv-Bot... Don't select any other characters... and play it in single player. Yup, you're good to go because Serv-Bot is all you need.




10PM EDT: Killzone 2 Host: Elsa (PSN: Elsa)

No worries here. We're just gonna play Killzone: Liberation. Which is a zillion times better than Killzone 2 anyway. There is only one server still active up so you have to be quick about it. I'll be playing this all by myself because the servers are region locked. That's why Elsa is hosting for all you Americans and I'm making her a sandwich.

Oh yeah, the password is 'TOID' in all-caps.




11PM EDT: King of Fighters XII Host: JackofNoTrades(PSN: JackofNoTrades85)

You might have to put your PSP down and stand half a mile away but I can totally see the outlines of Terry. Or is it Athena? No, no. It's Shen Woo. Yup, totally. So this means it closely resembles it's PS3 counterpart so you'll feel right at home here.




11PM EDT: Resistance 2 Host: Clockwork-Zombie(PSN: Clockwork-Zombie)

It's time for a golden oldie. You can probably find a used UMD in the bargain bins somewhere. So no probl... Fuck. No UMD is no Resistance 2 then. Sorry about that. Let's just forget about this and play the next game then.




12AM EDT: Socom: Confrontation Host: y0j1mb0 (PSN: k0wb0y-b33b0p)

Oh dammit. By the time we get to play Socom the battery is sucked dry, out of juice and all other words you Americans use. We completely forgot our chargers and Sony, cheap they are, didn't include and extra batter. Socom = Nocom tonight.



There you have it. We're totally gonna play about one and a half game tonight. It's gonna rock! Leave your PSN behind and maybe we can get our PSP's online. If everything fails, I'm playing Uno on my PS3, just send me a message. Use Skype to send that message because the PSN is free but laggy as hell.

Have fun tonight with your new purchase!

Yours,

Takeshi

(Obviously a short-blog. You weren't expecting me to write a novel about a firmware update now did you?)

Just mere minutes ago Sony release the new 3.01 Firmware. I've downloaded and installed it. And that about all I can say because I don't know what the changes are.

For those who are about to get into cardiac arrest: Fear not the nice gray friendlist is still in tact. And the bigger fonts too. In fact there aren't any changes we can see. Which can only mean Uncharted: Drakes Fortune is now playable for everybody. At least that's what I'm guessing. I myself didn't have any issues with the game. So maybe the ones that had problems can enlighten us if the game now runs as smooth as before.

Now while you're updating your PS3 I want to ask you something. Can you tell me what feature you would like to see in the next Firmware? Try to keep things a bit sane will you? We all know people really enjoy typing that "those guys over at Sony are a bunch of fags". But then in all-caps and with more grammar errors. But I'm just curious about your ideas and most of all why you would love that feature.

Forgot somethin: I personally would like to see two things.

1. I would love to be able to have full control over all the features on the XMB while in a video-chat. For those that never use it, you can't look at your trophies for instance. It's great to discuss the trophies in a chat room. "How did you get that one?" "How many more trophies do you need in that particular game?" etc.

2. I would also love to have full in-game XMB while playing PS1 and PS2 games and while watching a DVD or Blu-ray. Right now if you're playing a PS1 game you will remain logged in and can receive messages and sorts but you have to quit the game to read and reply them. This is obviously a bit harder to implement but it would make the PS3 much friendlier in use.

That's all I really want. I give the PS3 a 9.5 now. If it had those functions it would get a round and sold 10.


EDIT: Sony updated their blog and it says:

"Hi everyone, PS3 system software update 3.01 is now available for download. This is an optional update that improves system stability during use of some PlayStation 3 format software."

So yeah, that's Uncharted for you.

Ladies and Gentlemen, it's Saturday again. Which means we get together to play one single kick-ass shooter for the whole night. Or at least for a long time. Last week we had a blast playing Resistance 2 CO-OP. Which also means SNS was a success. This week we're gonna check if Warhawk is still the great shooter we all know (spoiler: it is!).


WARHAWK

Game name: Dtoid-SNS Password: TOID Time: 9:30 EST Host: Elsa (PSN: Elsa)


I'm going to mold SNS into something a bit different next week. Maybe let people vote whatever Shooter they really want to play on Saturday. Because honestly I don't really know who will play with us tonight. And I certainly don't want to be the guy who decides what we're gonna play and cram a game down everybody's throat. But I know out of experience that people are a bit lazy and rather want to see someone else create something and decide for them.

There are a couple of other things too. I know a few people would rather play on Sunday. Elsa is always having romantic dinners with an Old Snake look-a-like. Shipero is usually doing something else and I don't really care but I have to stay up 'till 9 am two days in a row rendering my well earned weekend almost completely useless (meaning I can't play on Sundays).

Now I need to shave my head and face because I look like a Gibbon. So if I don't show up at 9, I might have drowned myself in my imaginary bathtub.

Dtoid, get your games on! But most of all have fun!

(p.s. I couldn't create a theme for this week because I kind of did that yesterday already. I got a great idea for next week so keep your eyes peeled).

The Magical Mystery Tour is hoping to take you away. Hoping to take you away now. The Magical Mystery Tour. Roll up, roll up for the Mystery Tour. (Roll up) and that's an invitation. Roll up for the Mystery Tour. (Roll up) to make a reservation. Roll up for the Mystery Tour. The Magical Mystery Tour is coming to take you away. Coming to take you away. The Magical Mystery Tour is dying to take you away. Dying to take you away - take you today.






8PM EST: BlazBlue Host: JackofNoTrades (PSN: JackofNoTrades85)

Let me take you down, 'Cos I'm going to Strawberry Fields. Nothing is real. And nothing to get hungabout. Strawberry Fields forever.




9PM EST: Marvel vs. Capcom 2 Host: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole)

And our friends are all aboard, Many more of them live next door, And the band begins to play. We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine, We all live in a yellow submarine, Yellow submarine, yellow submarine.




10PM EST: Killzone 2 Host: Takeshi (PSN: JohanHin)

See how they run. Like pigs from a gun. See how they fly. I'm crying. Sitting on a cornflake - waiting for the van to come.




11PM EDT: Fat Princess Host: Patman (PSN: Patmann2009)

Hello little girl, hello little girl, hello little girl. When I see you everyday, I say: mm mm hello little girl. When you're passing on your way. I say: mm mm hello little girl. When I see you passing by, I cry mm mm hello little girl. When I try to catch your eye,
I cry mm mm hello little girl.




12AM EST: Socom: Confrontation Host: Santanaclaus89 (PSN: Moosehole)

We go wherever we want to, do what we like to do. We don't have time to get restless, There's always something new.
