    Edit: it would really help if we could communicate somehow. I have multiple 'microphones' for the PS3, but I'm guessing y'all don't. Is your computer near where you play your PS3? Do you have a microphone for your computer? Failing that, we could all just go into a chat room somewhere and type it out :P

    Edit Edit: Actually, there's a chat room built-in to the PS3. If you have a USB keyboard with a long enough cable, that could work too. If we don't do voice communication.
    Those were some fun games, even with moments where I apparently dropped about a hundred IQ points and rolled right off a cliff. I definitely enjoyed making it past level 5 on co-op though. Can't tell you the number of people I've been paired with who do nothing but run off on their own and die.

    Unfortunately, my computer is about 50-70 feet from my PS3. I don't have a mic that really works with the PS3 either. I have the one that came with Warhawk and the old PS2 Socom mic (which I believe should work) but never really managed to get them working. I'll give it a shot tomorrow I guess and see if I can get one working. Unfortunately I don't have the cash to go out and buy a USB mic right now. My keyboard also isn't USB since it just came with an old computer and never got used until I moved out since we had one already so PS3 chat is out.

    And about that video you posted, I've never run into anything that bad in game but I guess I just wasn't looking. I've seen plenty of ledges on walls that looked grabable but weren't, but nothing that blatantly wrong. I'd be tempted to say it's an error that slipped through testing myself.

    I beat it and the final lines of this game were hilarious.

    I'm going multiplayer now. I have a mic but I rarely use it because random people aren't exactly nice. I'd probly use it with any of you. If anyone wants to bother to add me I'm NoctilucaPlus but I'm not very good at this game even on Easy. You'll end up saving me more than shooting and get pissed :desu: So beware if you ever do. I only ever do the co-op stuff too. I am the ultimate killjoy.

    Yeah you have to be careful with the mics. I overheard a kid and another guy one time on multiplayer talking. The guy was asking the child what city he lioves, what school he goes to and what grade he lives in. The kid actually told him everything too and he was actually 13, which I would have thought he would've known better than that.

    I messaged him and told him that wasn't too smart and he just sent me this. o:

    Yeah the game's a lot more interesting with mics. multiplayer matches are boring without them and co-op objective is just plain epic and hard.

    Yeah, using mics is kind of essential. I have a bluetooth one around here somewhere which Ill look for. I'm really digging the co-op missions, seeing as they are pretty long and have a decent challenge. The rest of the multiplayer seems pretty standard.

    There is also something a little off with the controls which I can't place my finger on. Some of the platforming is a little awkward.

    The platforming *is* awkward. That's a complaint I had :P all those times both Dreddz and I fell to our death was because of weird jumps and stuff. I think the two of us collided in mid-air at one point and fell into a bottomles pit

    I've had my share of flailing about. Drake doesn't have much... snap to his movements. It all feels slippery or something. I couldn't think of a better word for it .

    I had my first instance of accidentally hitting a button in years last night. Nothing like scratching an itch then accidentally hitting L2 while putting my hand back on the controller, blowing myself and one team mate up with a grenade at the start of a deathmatch round to get things off on the right foot.

    Guy probably thought I was either an idiot or an ass and I wouldn't blame him in the slightest to be honest.

    I don't know. I just think you guys sucjk no offense. I made it there no problem and watched y'all fall to your death twice. It look like you were trying to make jump all the way from the top to the bottom. and I had to kill all those guards by myself lol.

    Just finished the campaign. Stellar all round. Really have to give props to Naughty Dog for what they managed to pull off in this game. They are truly blurring the line between cinematics and gameplay. The very last interactive sequence in the game was absolutely outstanding. How they managed to get this game looking this good with no installation and have no loading screens whatsoever is beyond me. They put nearly every other developer to shame.

    Highlight for me was probably the ice cavern. Not a particulary interesting chapter for most of the time but the scenerary just blew my mind.

    Man the co-op where you need to get the treasure from point A to point B is smurfing hard XD And long too. So far Objective is by far the most fun I've had. Need more money! Compulsion! The Fal is my favorite machine gun. Pressing in the right stick can give good headshot opportunities.

    Gold Rush is hard. I can handle survival if I hole up somewhere where I can watch all of the entrances and have a quick escape route (making the Sanctuary my favourite for it), but I just can't seem to get past level 6 or 7 in Gold Rush. Even going along paths where enemies don't tend to go I find I'll run into someone with a shotgun or the Gau-19 by level 6 or so and then it's just a pain. It's even worse when my teammates are random dudes who insist on running off on their own rather than helping to cap the treasure.

    And it seems that my lack of luck with explosives was continuing yesterday. As if blowing myself up with an RPG on the last round of a Survival game wasn't bad enough, a few games later my cat rubbed against the L2 button and made me throw a grenade at the wall in front of me. It's one thing to accidentally blow myself up, but now even my cat is out to get me.

    Have yet to get this game. Definitely my number one most wanted (number two is Metroid Prime Trilogy). I played the multiplayer beta, and I was impressed. Can't wait. Sorry 'bout short choppy sentences. The enviroments look stunning, and I'm really excited about the stealth system (Sly and Metal Gear Solid are among my favorite game series). Also, Sully's one of my favorite video game characters, so that's one more reason to love this game.

    So what's the deal. Are we getting an EoFF game night in a private match or not?
