SOCOM pissed me off after I got booted because I didn't die and I rescued the people lol.

I'm curious as to you's guy's impressions of the beta so far. I've never played the series myself, yet I know the games have an incredibly hardcore fanbase. I think the closest thing I have gotten to something like SOCOM is probably MGO...

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I prefer mgo, the controls are really better for mgo I think.

Graphics are pretty normal, nothing spectacular.

They seriously need better server or change the way it handle, because waiting 20min to get into a game is really not acceptable...

The game is more tactical I think than MGO, some will like it more, others will prefer the mgo style...

I didn't play much because it just take too long to manage to get into a game... so that's pretty much all I have to say for now...

Be thankful you've managed to get into a game at all. I've tried a couple of times now with no success. Apparently a patch was due to hit last night along with some new servers, so I might give it another go. However, if it is still hard to get into then I'll be deleting the download and SOCOM will be confirmed in my mind as something I have no interest in.

I'm really glad I'm not the only one experiencing connection problems, Omagnus. Still unsuccessful here as well.

What the FUCK is with this stuff, lately. At least this is a beta, where problems are expected, but still.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I guess the SOCOM folks figured that Call of Menus 4 was really successful, so it would be a good game to model their pre-game online experience after.

Well, to be fair, MGO was no walk in the park when it was in beta. From what I remember, Warhawk was pretty bad as well - that game froze mid game everytime you booted it up.

I mean, this is precisely what betas are meant for - working out the conks so that they are ready to go come release. These server stability issues shouldn't be a reflection of what you can expect to experience when the final game hits retail.

And in USA land it's 20 funbucks, just so you all know.

Can't wait, shitting pants. It'll be nice to have a racer we can do friend matches in, eh Omagnus? Especially after that GT5P fuckup. And all the other co-op disasters on the 360.

Watch it not work for us.

I have been waiting on WipeoutHD ever since Skills linked me to it months ago.

BRING IT ON.

It looks sweet
By 'sweet' did you mean 'boring as hell'? It gives you the weather and some news. If the PS3's browser wasn't a piece of arse that might be semi-worthwhile, but really, I can check both things without having to wait for my PS3 to load and then to load that application. Don't get me wrong, it's free and looks pretty well presented, but I just don't really give a damn and wish Sony were spending their time on getting things I care about into the interface and XMB rather than dicking about with making a pretty, spinny globe that has weather icons on.

Yeah, of course you can get the news without turning on your PlayStation. I meant 'looks sweet' as in 'easy on the eyes' and as a good upgrade of Folding@Home (since now you can keep it in the background and glance at the news every once in a while, instead of looking at wiggling proteins).

Oh, Wipeout HD is coming out that soon? I downloaded the demo of that Fatal Inertia EX game since it sounded similar, but it was pretty meh. I will definitely get in on some wipeout action though.

Edit: While I'm here, what are the "must have" games at this point? I bought the 80 gig non-BC model, and also picked up MotorStorm and Soul Calibur IV. I kind of suddenly shifted gears into the PS3 scene from the Wii, so I don't know what all is happenin' with the PS3. Oh, and I also bought Bionic Commando: Rearmed and Strikers 1942 HD off of PSN.

I know it's ancient, but if anyone wants to race in MotorStorm I would totally be up for that. I need to fuel my off-road racing addiction until Pacific Rift comes out.

"Must have" games, eh. Well, I dunno about that, sometimes people tell me that I "must have" certain games which turn out to be boring as hell. But I guess you can't do anything wrong with blockbuster games like GTA IV or Metal Gear Solid 4.

I'm not going to tell you 'must have' games, because that is going to be entirely up to you and your preferences. What I will say, is it's worth checking out some of the following games, and seeing if there you're kind of thing:
- Assassin's Creed
- Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
- GTA IV
- Metal Gear Solid 4
- Race Driver: GRID
- Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction
- Rock Band / Rock Band 2
- Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
- Warhawk

Some upcoming titles to keep an eye on:
- Fallout 3
- LittleBigPlanet
- Resistence 2
- Valkryia Chronicles

Also, yes, WipEout HD should be landing tomorrow.

I believe the Playstation store updates at 5 PM EST, although I could be mistaken. I remember having to wait until then for Siren to become available for download.
