7 Weeks to kill

Archive: 34 posts


Hey guys I just looked at the calendar and if the Oct 21st release date is legit(for US and Canada anyways... Sorry for you guys from europe ) we have exactly 7 weeks to kill before LBP is in our hands.

I was just wondering what games you guys are going to play to make the wait feel a little shorter. Right now I'm looking forward to NHL 09 and Rock Band 2 which our coming out in the next 2 weeks. NHL 09 should kill a significant time for me anyways with the 6 on 6 Online leagues that should take sports video game trash talking to a whole new level lol.

What are you guys looking forward to get pre-LBP?

7 weeks. OH SHI-

Seriously, I never realised it was that long. I definitely need to buy a new game then. Hmm... I really have no idea.

I mean, I can't think of any killer apps that are coming out before LittleBigPlanet which is a letdown to say the least. Anyone got any suggestions? I might possibly buy SW:TFU...

I have 8 weeks.. Europe sucks much?

I'm getting Star Wars, then Fallout.. They should keep me fairly occupied, although September is gonna fly by.. I have geogoraphy coursework to do, which'll take about 20 hours, I have my Duke Of Edinburgh expedition which eliminates one weekend aswell, so I just have to deal with october lol.

I was hyped for Star Wars but then I played the demo lol. It was pretty cool dont get me wrong it just feels too much like Ninja Gaiden just nowhere near as intense lol. Although thats just a matter of preference though, I know a few guys who hate the insane difficulty of Ninja Gaiden. I dont blame them either cuz theres points in that game where its just brutal but I'm a sucker for a good challenge.

And I could be wrong but i thought Fallout was slated to come out on Oct 30th... Let me know if I'm wrong cuz thats a definate pickup for me too.

Well I am going to be getting Star Wars, and I will tell how much I love it. I think the demo does not show everythign you can do in the game and we have to remember demo's are never a great way to find out about a game.2008-09-02 21:42:00

I'm heading for military rehearsal excercises tomorrow. Yay, 9 days in the wilderness, pretending to shoot down planes.

Well, it's one way of killing time.

I've decided to get some golden guns in COD 4. Aiming for the AK and the UZI I'm sure that should keep me occupied for 8 weeks.2008-09-03 20:55:00

oh... SNAP!!!!!! My PS3 don't plays Blu-Ray-CDs anymore!!!!! Now I cant play PS3-Games!!!! It's terrible!!! And Sony really needs long to send back their items... and I got a 60GB, this needs even longer

Now it's more difficult to kill the 7 1/2 weeks (EU) I've got to wait

Oh man, unlucky!! :O

NEVER TURN OUR PS3 OFF ABRUPTLY (By the plug/ switch at the back) WHILST PLAYING A BLU-RAY DISC(Movie)

Can't say that this is what caused it, but its a leading contributor in most cases.

Also - My PS3 fairly recently stopped ejecting the disc when I touch the button (Could be due to my PS3 skin but it did used to work) now I have to do it by the remote control all the time..

my 60gig is still going fairly strong though, hang in there buddy!

Good luck with that, tell us how it went. Tell us if it is all we expected and more or just a lame attempt of greatness. XD

It only took about 2 days actually.

But I didn't transfer my HDD (which sucked) so it might take longer if you do that.

Epic Failz

Not worth my monies, until I get a better computer, or it's released on console.
