Harimau's been like that for a while. Since Pure at least. It's been made somewhat obselete by other teams, but it's hardly an incapable craft. It's not enough of a change in stats to say it could be a handicap, since at those minor differences, you won't really notice the performance hit.

One of us needs to get off our lazy asses and make a thread for this game.

I nominate Omagnus since he has pretty pics.

Just curious. Are people jumping around from team to team, or have loyalties already been drawn? Since Skills has so many loyalty points with Assegai, and most of Omagnus' photo mode pics have been of EG-X, I just have to wonder.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It's probably easiest to pick a team who's craft handles in a way you like. Some of the loyalty rewards come at certain total amounts and some come at certain amounts for certain teams.

I find it easiest to stick with one craft and learn it's intricaces. Bouncing around as the situation and track calls for it is not a bad idea either, although the learning curve there would be considerably higher.

Hmm... ok. I've been using AG Systems a lot, but I recently found I had to step up to one of the more difficult but faster craft (Auricom, I think) in order to get a gold on a time trial in the Frenzy campaign.

I wish my PS3 would work but I recently erased all my data trying to back it up. I have the box, but all the good data recovery software is on Windows, and my Windows partition recently broke. So I need to reinstall it over the weekend so I can ship out my PS3 to Sony. I don't even know if they'll FIX it.

This is really tough.

Maybe I shouldn't really play Wipeout online with you guys anymore. I don't want to embarass you any further. This level of rape might lead to post traumatic stress disorder, and maybe even suicide.

I can at least use my newbness as an excuse. Karasu, on the other hand...

(though I have no place to talk, since he could still easily hand me my ass as well)

That was definitely awesome, though. Despite the fact that I sucked balls, I still had a lot of fun with it. We need to get a full on, eight player GFF race up in this bitch NOW.

just got the game, took a bit to download >_>
Tried the first level really quick and found it fun, although I haven't played wipeout since ps1 on a demo so knocking on the walls was a normal.
would have loved to play online but i didn't have the energy since I seem to have caught a virus ~_~
Maybe this weekend

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

Ok, made a thread:
http://www.gamingforce.org/forums/vi...tml#post648030

Do we want another one in the multiplayer arena, or will that one suffice for now?

Anyway to make my PS3 Compatible?

Hello all,

So I went and bought a PS3 - but didn't realize that they ended the backwards compatabilityness of it... ugh - is there anyway to make it compatable to play ps2 games?

Oddly enough, you can still play PS1 games on them. Go Figure.

Wiki's got a chart of which are and are not PS2 backwards compatible. I think the last backwards compatible one to hit the market was the Metal Gear 4 bundle.

Edit @ Chato: The new ones have a different/better fan? I never heard anything about that.

How ya doing, buddy?

Sorry. I heard something about the new models having a stronger fan that can blow out dust or something and that the 20/60 models don't.

Other than that, Anyone here upgrade ? Not so fancy I hear.. Good thing though is that SF4 is gonna have the PS3home feature.

PS3 Recovery Menu in FW 2.5:

To go into this mode you need at least firmware 2.50 and do the following:

-Place your PS3 in STANDBY mode
-If it goes into the video reset setting then you messed up, and do it again till you hear a double beep.

Well the video feature is going to have an option to browse through chapters of movies recorded into your harddrive which is what i wanted for quite sometime since the psp has had this for the longest time already. Other than that, it says that there is a power save feature to turn off your controller or console after a certain amount of idle time, and BD/DVD options are going to be renamed into Video options.
Nothing too grand, downloading it now anyways

holy crap your right chato, used to be that I had to download the videos from gamtrailer in order to watch them but now I can just stream them. It's about fucking time they updated the flash player.
Also I just noticed that it shows the amount of time a person has been offline, so I guess I'll remove some random people to who added me outside these forums just to keep track of the people who do sign in. Now if only we could categorize our friends list.

Yeah, the update upgraded the flash player, lets you see how long it's been since your friends have been online, and upgraded the trophy system (from what I can tell, it tells you how much more percentage away from the next level you are, and when you get a trophy, the actual trophy icon is displayed next to the image denoting what type of trophy it is (bronze, silver, gold or platinum) and the accompanying text), among other things.

There's also the option to do sequential playback of videos. Eg. you can have play an entire folder of trailers/vids, instead of playing one then closing it and opening the next. The option to replay for videos appears to be new too.

So I got my PS3 back. Brand new unit.

Downloaded a bunch of games and played a couple hours of Resistance.

Then it started doing the same shit to me again.

This is a really sick joke.

Oh man, the game console gods do not smile upon you, Ultima. That totally sucks.
Sorry. I heard something about the new models having a stronger fan that can blow out dust or something and that the 20/60 models don't.
Huh, maybe that's true. My friend has a backwards compatible 80 gig, and he says it gets pretty warm. I've got a new 80 gig (never had a PS2, so no PS2 games to play on it anyway) and mine stays cool to the touch even after marathon gaming for hours.
