[TheTwelve]

Considering all the talk about Home, Life with Playstation, etc...kinda disappointed but...

I'll TAKE IT!!!!

12

[Overr8ed]

o_o thats alot of new stuff!

[newneto]

I am in Uruguay now. I will get Warhawk as soon I arrive back in Rio on Saturday. Let´s see what is next...

[Homicide]

Getting the Warhawk expansion. I want more trophies.

[MikeGdaGod]

just got my 80gb Metal Gear bundle and now i have dl all my demos and games all over again. but at least i'm back!

PSN: MikeG115

[HipHopGamerShowFan]

SC4 Demo, nice, I'm gonna play it right with the Dualshock 3 d-pad =)

[Dyingduck]

I cannot wait for the Warhawk expansions and SCIV Demo + those trailers

Updates for PS3 ONLY HAHA dumb Xbots left in the dust again

[CViper]

would love to see that heavy rain trailer in HD :\

[sajj316]

Its on the European PS Store. Its absolutely beautiful!

[sajj316]

yes!!!!!!!!!! and 1080p too!!!!!

[CViper]

aggghghgghggghghgghghghg!!!!!!

few more hours at work :(

[ChefDejon]

No Life With Playstation...

[Overr8ed]

did they say it would be Via Store update? or Firmware?

[akaFullMetal]

lots of content, seems to be a usual thing lately for the psn, this is just great, lets play some warhawk

[tangerine]

Come on socom beta! Lets go!

[crimsonfox]

man...i still havent sent my ps3 to get fixed...im trying to get out this stupid stripped screw so i can back up my crap man...me and some friends have made videos that i really dont wanna lose man....i miss my warhawk

imagine warhawk had a kid named "mike wawk" haha say it fast

[acetw1n]

I have pics and music I want saved, is there a way to retrive data when you send them in to be fixed?

[wAtdaFck]

How about you guys back up your data with an HDD or Flash Drive via the USB ports?

[Kami]

get an external hdd and copy your things in it and backup your ps3 data.

[ThatArtGuy]

You're supposed to remove the hard drive when you send it in, aren't you?

[TOSgamer]

Then go get needle nose pliers and just clamp on to the side of the stripped screw and remove it that way.

6.1 If your PS3 still turns on then connect an external drive and select back up utility from the system settings menu.

6.4 No they usually expect you to include the hard drive. The ps3 won't function without it.

I just sent mine in for a dead blu-ray drive and should be getting it back next week.

[DTClown]

Back in High School, (late 80's ...geesh!) I had a classmate named Mike Hawk. ABSOLUTE TRUTH! Our Algebra I teacher did roll call and missed why everyone was cracking up, so he repeated Mike's full name again. After the second time, he got a perplexed look on his face and referred to him as Michale or Mr. Hawk from that moment on. Classic.

[PSWe60]

probably trying to make up for the fact that there's no Life With PlayStation.

[TheExecutive]

no life with playstation?

no extended HOME beta?

On another note: The Last Guy= WIN.

This is a great update but it could have been epic.

[dro]

comepare that to the EU store... :( i know, im so happy i have both EU/AMERICAN STORE !!!!!

[Owner360-PS3]

i wanted Life with PS dammit :(

[SmokingMonkey]

<<<<<level 5 with 100 plus trophies!!!

I love the custom soundtracks, for WARHAWK. Some games shouldn't be played with CS, like Uncharted or MGS4(1st playthru) but a game like WARHAWK or SOCOM warrants Metallica to be played in the background.

good update, should i go NHL 09 or NHL 2K9? let's try em both out!

[okcomputer]

I didn't even know what life with playstation was until i saw everyone in the thread asking about it. Now that i've looked it up I really want it.. umm thanks a lot guys.

[ATLRoAcH]

...will more than likely be in a Firmware update, not in a Store update. Just like Folding@Home was. I understand they said it would be here in August and that's why people are expecting it but I don't know why people think it's going to be in a PlayStation Store update. It will be in a Firmware update. Hopefully we will have it next week. We usually don't have Firmware updates at the end of the week so I'm betting on early September.

[DrPirate]

Honest question, why do people care so much about Life with Playstation.

It does absolutely nothing game related, and I get my weather and news from my HTC Phone....

[ATLRoAcH]

It's a new feature so of course it's more than welcome. I do a lot of Folding@Home so I like it because I can Fold and do all the news and weather and all that at the same time. I also think it's really cool that you see the weather happening on the globe in Life with PlayStation. If there's a hurricane, you can see it on the globe. That's cool. That's why I'm looking forward to it. I'm not in no big hurry for it though. That's why you won't see me saying "where's Life with PlayStation?" on every site and Blog. I have games to play. I'm in no hurry. We'll get it.

[DrPirate]

Good answer ATLRoach, that's absolutely the answer I was looking for.

Thanks alot, bubbles.

[CR7JUVE1897]

Its new, Its free, and its something Microsoft doesn't have.

Yet.

[ATLRoAcH]

No problem. It was a good question. I'll return the bubble favor. :)

[dro]

true say,when i first heard about it i was like "ok"!!! cool feature but i dont see my self using it as much :/

bubbles up for being honest!!!

[DrPirate]

Well, I don't wanna piss on anyone's parade.

If they are genuinely excited, I want to be too, hopefully someone can pinpoint what's so incredibly special about it.

Again, I don't want to be the buzzkill, I just don't understand the wave of disappointment.

[Smoothlikeme]

NHL 09 demo = yay

[boodybandit]

EA might finally be over the hurdle with Madden and now NHL 09 playing so smooth. 3rd year was the charm with the 360 and EA (60fps) and it looks to be the same with the PS3 now.

I played the demo for 2 hours straight. NHL is my favorite sports title. NHL 2K9 i really good this year as well. I am getting both.

BTW anyone know what is up with NHL 2K9 and EA 09 coming out first on PSN?

[IzKyD1331]

come on sony, theres only like 3 more days of august left, when you guys said end of august for extended home beta and life with playstation, I didnt think you meant the last possible second lol

but I cant complain, last guy, SC4 demo and warhawk

[psnSkareFace]

europe gets feck all compared 2 usa

[NanoGeekTech]

Maybe it was off the EU PSN.....but I have had NHL09 for at least a week..

I was expecting Life with Playstation...but hey there next week...and the week after that..

[boodybandit]

that you downloaded last week?

[Sir_Ken_Kutaragi]

QUANTUM OF SOLACE continues the high octane adventures of Sir Ken Kutaragi...
(My Names Kutaragi, Sir Ken Kutaragi, Licence to Kill...
Other Companies Consoles!!!) ;-D

[thereapersson]

Oh well, still looks like a good update. Besides, I haven't been on any of my consoles in a little while (namely my PS3), so I am kind of backlogged with all the new stuff they've been releasing over the PSN.

lol, I never thought i'd see the day where I would say that. Usually i'm so up on things I manage to see everything there is to see with each update.

[Zydake]

The new warhawk booster pack is the shiit nice PS Store update

Question.
Can you fly the icarus with the flag?
