the reviewer's only major gripes are short game length, and sometimes-repetitive (but nonetheless admittedly satisfying) game-play.

The rest came across as nothing but high-praise all across the board. So I don't understand the sub-eight overall score.

All I know is that I was on the fence of purchasing this title, but after seeing that review, it's got me really enticed to want to play it. While watching that video, I couldn't help but keep thinking that Heave...

I can't agree...at one point I noticed that you'd managed to rack up a pretty decent amount of points.

Well, maybe it's just 'cause I made you look good. Believe it or not, it was my first ever CTF event EVER (for ANY video game). For some reason, I've always stuck to free-for-all deathmatches.

But after last night, that's going to change...CTF was a TOTAL blast!!!

Pleasant surprise seeing you jump in nonetheless...hopefully we'll hook up again s...

Uh, yeah...that sums it up pretty accurately.

Oh God, I'm hurting for some sleep...

Now I'm NEVER gonna get any sleep now that I can drag my next-gen titles to the comfort of my own bed.

I smell Sony being subject to a class-action lawsuit for causing severe sleep-deprivation, nationwide divorces, and massive job dismissals.

Hmmm...Could Sony's current crown jewel potentially act as a root-cause for our next global depression???...

Uh, but until then, I'll continue to accept those delicious updates with a kick of the heels and a ...

But last night I had a Hell of a time trying to log into the Warhawk server (about an hour!!!)...and the trouble started IMMEDIATELY after my upgrade to 1.93.

Prior to that, the game had been running absolutely glitch-free...oh wait. Not true:

Despite my hours upon hours of ranked gameplay, every single one of my stats remain at zero.

Hopefully, I won't get the same login problem later tonight.

Sorry, but I haven't yet delved into that universe, despite my best intentions to do so.

A quick search on the TVersity website, queried some Linux-related forum hits which may help get you going:

I wish Dusty and the gang would take a more punitive approach to those who abuse the system.

Oh well. Majority rules, I guess. If the site's deemed to be ruled by trigger-happy contributors stricken with illiteracy, then so be it.

"Stop censoring the news. This is not duplicate. It states more ifo than wikepedia article. that is just part of this article. "

You're absolutely, positively, undoubtedly, correct...which is why I included MULTIPLE links of already-posted stories.

But I now prefer to use TVersity exclusively.

Not only is it absolutely free, but converts and streams virtually any format that your PC supports to your PS3 ON THE FLY.

Although I've had some occasional bug issues with DivX (c'mon Sony, just give us a codec already, will ya!?!?), it's an overall rather rock-solid media server.

Note that in order to ensure that TVersity supports all preferred codecs, it's recommended that you install (the also free...

is the most accurate thing I've read about the format wars yet.

Many of us within these threads are able to distinguish the two formats. But try to have an decent conversation about the subject with one of your non-tech-savvy friends/family members/associates.

Chances are they'll reply with a blank, dumbfounded stare.

Other than we gamers, early adopters, pioneers, or those who have a vested interest in it, most everyone either doesn't care - or i...

I haven't noticed any...other than the hours the game has been magically and effortlessly sucking from my life, not to mention getting my ass repeatedly handed to me on a platter.

...Friggin' "Lock-on"...arrghh!! ! ;)

I got tired yesterday of waiting for my Bestbuy.ca order from last Sunday(!) to be fulfilled.

So I printed out a copy of BB's web page advertising the WH bundle for a cool CN$39, headed over to my local Future Shop, and got a price match for the last two remaining of the rapidly-depleting Warhawk bundles (one for my beloved Bro-in-law).

Although it's currently sitting in my system, installed and ready to go, I've yet to play my first game.

Great, great post!

Now if only others would take it to heart.

Bubbles for your fantastic blurb.

until picking Daxter up for my PSP. Matter of fact, I just finally finished it no more than two nights ago.

Such an excellent, FUN game! (well, except for the overly-abrupt ending).

A PS3 version of the game would be very welcomed as a result.

Sounds good, bud.

Strange...considering the event, I had this eerie feeling akin to being the only one a room, and talking to only myself.

Nice to know there are still others around!

...well, at least until their download and installation completes, that is. :(

...Uh, hello???

This reminds me of those certain bitter times in childhood, where you're forced to just stand by empty-handed, and watch that annoying kid next door flaunt the Mr. Softee ice cream cone he was just unjustifiably rewarded...and you weren't.

I suppose that my pre-ordering, and painfully enduring of snail-mail postal shipment, for my headset-bundled copy is the caveat of the sweet CN$40 steal-of-a-price that I paid for the game at Bestbuy.ca.

However, when I do rece...

I just ordered mine no more than five minutes ago.

I happened to check out the website only out of curiosity, to confirm their release date, as well as to check out their price.

I did a double-take upon seeing the price. But after immediately checking out Future Shop and US's Gamestop, I knew that this was a steal (probably as a result of a critical pricing error on BB's part.)

I rushed to tell my Bro-in-law about it...hopefully he'll nab a copy f...

Just tonight I received my latest edition of PSM, and man, do they ever flaunt Unreal Tournament 3.

Up until now, I've been really excited for this game, and was remotely considering UT3.

But now, after having just reading PSM's uber-hyped-up preview (24 maps, FULL robust single-player campaign!), I'm more than 'remotely' considering UT3.

What to do, what to do!

I agree. I don't remember it being difficult, although I do remember that it took me a damn long time to figure out how to kill them. Just kept swinging back-and-forth for what seemed like an eternity without inflicting any significant damage.

What did find to be a biatch-and-a-half, was big that big, giant, blubbery sister of Medusa.

Hee hee, my poor, twelve-year-old cousin is STILL stuck at that part...I'm talking since the game's release back in March.
