The Arcade Random Thoughts Thread

I'm pretty sure that kinda of stuff tied to your profile.

Maybe they happen to be on the PS3, but I know every time I've done away with game data or just not brought it along on a console swap on the Xbox, those MP stats were gone.

Got my brand spanking new PS3, such a sexy piece of hardware. :wub:

Currently downloading all of the stuff I had on my PSN account while I gotta go to work.

Went to Target after Best buy had closed and they PM Resistance 3 for $10.....thought that was low enough price for me to pick it up. Still need to get R2.

 

[Twigg4075]

R3 is a really good game and has co-op too.

 

[j.hen]

The downloading has concluded, Now I just need to decide which game shall be the first to be played on the new system. Looking like it's going to be Arkham City.

So, I recently started listening to the Radio Radar podcast, which is I guess an extension of Talk Radar and Games Radar. I think the Talk Radar podcast dies and several slinter podcasts started in it's place including Radio Radar, Vidjagames Aocalypse, Cape Crisis and a few others. I've been really enjoying them. They actually talk about games, unlike the Bombcast, and they play more than just PC and 360.

I just listened to episode 34 and about halfway through they started talking about how now it seems like the cool thing to do now is to hate M$ (after reading a listener email). They mentioned that last gen everyone hated Sony because they were on top but since M$ is on top in NA this gen they are the cool company to hate. But it was funny because Hollander Cooper went on to sum up why he believes that is and it was exactly what I've been saying for years. He said early on it was M$ touting "Xbox Live is the best. We have the best Netflix app. Look at all the great Indie titles you can play on XBLA." Now Netflix on Xbox is fucked and almsot unusable, they almost seem to go out of their way to fuck over Indie developers on their platform and they've just been using their own hubris and flexing their muscles instead of actually doing anything to nake things better for the consumer. Whereas Sony has went in the complete opposite direction by severely improving their online network to where it is on par with Live, offers free games and crazy discounts with their paid service and has been throwing money at Indie developers and welcoming them with open arms.

I remembered I was sent a beta code for Marvel Heroes. I played a bit tonite and I like it. It is basically Diablo but with Marvel Heroes. The interfaces is really simple and easy to use and it is fun to play. I look forward to it. Best thing is it is free to play and they dont ruin the game with reminding you to buy stuff.

Did I miss something about Netflix? I use it every other night, and haven't had and glaring issues.

An update capped it at 720p on the 360 a while ago, and it just so happens that MS' own Zune is the only service on their console that streams 1080p content anymore.

Only games I have for PSP are Square Enix games, and you don't seem like the type for those.

So I'm downstairs in my room smoking a bowl about to start up InFAMOUS 2 when I hear my roommates up stairs cheering "WEI SHEN! WEI SHEN!" and hysterically laughing, I go upstairs (bowl in tow) to find this:

I lol'd, think Shen sounds better than Steely Dan though :dunno:

I downloaded that Motorcross Madness game from Live. Its decent. Worth its 10 bucks. I like it. Handling's good, speed is good, a good spirit all around.
