Mine's [PM Me for it]
My Xbox live subscription just got renewed but I've been having some connectivity issues as of late. I'm hoping to have it all sorted by the time Black Ops arrives

Yeah I'd be keen on a session of C.O.T.D. I'm hoping no later then a week for it to arrive. Quite frankly it'll be good to play with someone local because its always hard trying to play with friends overseas because the difference in timezones makes it a bitch to get on when everyone else is.
Those headsets can be a bit of a pain in the arse. I thought I'd struck gold with the headset I bought not too long ago because it had a speaker for each ear. Its practical if you don't want to make a lot of noise but to get it to work you have to actually hook it up to the back of the TV and its just a pain in the arse to connect and disconnect it each time you want to use it. Biggest waste of $60.

yeah timezones are a pain!
and that headset sounds very annoying, i have a wireless one and i constantly have to charge it, i've misplaced the cable though so i gotta find that, the problem with that though is that when you need to charge it you cant use it at the same time

Sweet. Black Ops finally arrived  and I've got it hooked up to the ADSL instead of the wireless so hopefully Lag will be a non-issue. |

Any decent online games on the PS3 that aren't on the Xbox?

Yeah there are a lot! If we're talking ones that don't appear on both consoles (like Call of Duty or Red Dead Redemption) there are games like the Killzone series (awesome first person shooters) LittleBigPlanet (might sound silly, but it's an amazing platformer that has a wealth of user generated levels, some of them perfectly recreating classic games!), the Uncharted series (part 2 has online mulitplayer and so will the upcoming part 3... but it's an AMAZING single player game too) and more. And then there are games like God of War 3, Infamous (and the upcoming Infamous 2 which has an online mode) and Metal Gear Solid 4, among many others.
I don't get into the whole console wars thing. Gaming is gaming, and every system has it's awesome games. I have a Wii too, and I love any games put out by Nintendo (Mario, Metroid, Zelda, etc.).

Yeah I don't understand why some people get their panties in a bunch over different consoles either. The final goal is to have fun anyway so what does it matter which machine you do it on.
I had initially planned to get a PS3 because I had grown fond of my old PS2 and was used to the PS controller; but I met some friends online who had XBOX systems and that persuaded me to look beyond the brand since I wanted to join them online. Seemed only natural and I haven't regretted that decision.

Ok I've seen a pretty sweet deal on a 160GB PS3 under $300 (cheapest I've seen it anywhere) so I'm thinking of grabbing one before the deal runs out. Are there any PS3 games you guys play online much? |

I haven't been online as much lately, but I do get on frequently and play games like COD or NHL and stuff like that. Thinking I'll skip MW3 and get Battlefield 3 instead.

Turns out I was a little too late. They had run out of the 160GB PS3's.  They said they were going to order more, but I have no idea how long that'll take. All my buddies on Xbox seem to be favouring the Battlefield series too. They say compared to COD: MW the online play is far more enjoyable and less arcade like. |
