Hear that? It's the collective whining and disappointment of the many Sony gamers who were less than enthusiastic about Sony's "big reveal" regarding
SOCOM 4. They wanted
Killzone 3,
Infamous 2, that new
Starhawk game, maybe the
Twisted Metal reboot that may get done if Jaffe wasn't busy blogging his opinion about every other game that he's not involved in, or that game,y'know the one YOU want instead with the thingies and bells and whistles that are sure to revolutionize games forever.
Know what? I get the feeling that whatever would of been announced, it would of been the same story. Unless they announced a new
Jumping Flash (That shit would of been HOT). But here's the thing, all those titles mentioned are in the works. They are coming. Not only that but
The Last Guardian is around the corner too. I don't know about ya'll but man it is an awesome time to be a gamer. Especially a Sony gamer. They're finally getting their heads out of their asses and giving us the games/brands that made us fall in love with them way back with the PS1/PS2. They're actually advertising. For the 1st time I see more Sony commercials on TV than Microsoft ones. Why if I would squint my eyes and let myself be delusional, I might think that Sony is back in form again, like they used to be back in their heyday.
So what am I trying to say here? That being a patient gamer is rewarded? That Sony is the cat's meow again? That that game you wanted instead to be revealed is coming? Nope. I just wanted to simply say:
Fuck Yes,
SOCOM 4 baby! I couldn't be more elated. Now lets play some games brothers and sisters.
It begins with...
[Time:7pm EST til when the cows come home. ( That's a long time folks! )- Host: Qraze PSN Tag:qraze ]
White Knight Chronicles. The proilific Dtoider Qraze ( #1_in_the_HOOD_G! ) debuts as a FNF host. He's been burning the midnight oil on WKC and he's offered to be your guide in the the online shenanigans.Got this game and haven't taken it online yet? You're doing yourself a disservice then. Join Qraze and more in a myriad of adventures all for honor, justice and the eradication of the evil that plagues the land. Or for the murdering of innocent creatures small and large not bothering anybody, just to satisfy our penchant for loot. There are two ways of looking at it, pick which one suits and fuels the swinging of your blade. Being that this is 4 players online, if by chance we get more people interested we shall create additional rooms. Just remember that you have to unlock 'Geonet' first to participate. To do so if you haven't, after the real 'intro' to the game subsides, go to the town you started at and look for a dwarfish bunny dude by one of the entrances, he'll sell you a deed to a land ( essentially your online hub ) and off you go to marvel at my bearded character and Moose's wicked axe combos. Those interested leave your PSN tag below and we'll send you a "Geonet" friend request as well as all pertinent info to join us.
After this is...
[ Time:8PM EDT: Uncharted 2: Among Thieves Host: SantanaClaus (PSN: Moosehole) ]
The new map pack DLC is HOT, I tell you, HOT. Join Moose and myself as we play Survivor on the new maps trying very hard not to kill each other with grenades. If you still haven't played Uncharted2's co op modes online, you are missing out.
[Time:9pm EST - Host: Nexus PSN Tag:Nexus ]
Borderlands. Its strange how this game STILL remains kick ass. And the new DLC is awesome. If you picked it up like we did, why not join Nex as he frags, loots, and tries to take out that dude above. He may need a lil' helping hand though. That's where you come in. Any volunteers? Leave your PSN tag below and he will sent an invite to your inbox.
Then its on to...
[Time:10pm EST - Host: Takeshi ]
Say what you want about glitches, Activision, and their servers but there's one thing that this game has in spades that most don't. it's FUN to play with others. Period. Join us as we wreck it up and unlock even more guns and tags to sport.
And finally to close the night:
[Time:12pm EST - Host: Me ( k0wb0y-b33b0p ) and Moosehole ]
And back full circle to the game that never gets old. SOCOM. No respawns. No Bazookas. No bullshit. Just you in the trenches with your fellow Dtoider by your side trying to do the only thing we know how to do...dominate. If you got a copy of this game and haven't played it with us yet, you're missing out brother.
One more thing to MAG players, I'm sure some Dtoiders, like Elsa will be playing it, just let us know in the comments below if you're one of them so like-minded gamers will join or extend an invite to you.
And yet one other thing. That new Resident Evil 5 DLC is awesome ( and hard as balls ). If there are any Dtoiders who want to roll with that let us know in the comments and we'll oblige as well.
The games are set, the times solidified. All that's left is...Who's with us? Leave your PSN tag below and let us know.
Start time will officially be 7pm pacific, 9pm central, 10pm eastern ... though we may well be on before that. The squad holds 8 people and it's first come, first serve... though it's also easy enough to get a second squad of people going.
There's a SVER and Valor Dtoid clan too (I think), though I'm not sure who the clan leaders are.
also, i need some dtoiders in wkcg i'm gr9 and just rebirthed, but i needs materials, i can not get enough of this game. i think its awesome and if a rpg is crap, i won't and can't finish it. i've already beat this one twice! (second playthrough loot is incredible). i've put in 165 hours so far, with many many more to go.
Lvl 33 Bow user - Done one playthrough. If we're playing with lower level players, I might not be the greatest partner. There would be not much XP gain for anybody. I still wanna play though.
I'm not sure if I can make it tonight for MW2. I'm feeling rather ill since yesterday. We'll see what happens but we might have to find a reserve host in advance. Not that it is hard to find each other in MW2.
Not surprised about the announcement, not disappointed either. But I would love to get some Killzone 3 info. There. That's basically it.
Its going to happen SOON. I'm glad you said SF2 as well. I like SF4 a LOT but lets be real here...SF2 is the best. Yeah, I went there.
... any chance of a different night for WKC? (maybe Wednesdays or something? I'd like to try the online but Fridays are usually the only night we get a full clan squad going for MAG).
My PSN is 'SM4RT1N0'(Last one the number 0), if you dont mind playing with a silent bloke hit me up
Trust me, I'd much rather play SF2 than SF4. The online lobby system (as well as being a better game) easily makes up for any shortcomings that the game has.
Let's hope my M.A.S.K. bedsheets will cure me.
Have a good one tonight everybody.
