PS3....meh
Fernando Rocker @ Apr 17th 2008 10:36AM
I second that...
Ninjakamster @ Apr 17th 2008 10:47AM
Wait wait wait, your response to the PS3 is only "meh" now Fernando? Wow, you've really toned down on the PS3 hating haven't you. From full blown loathing to indifferene, what a fall from grace....

Ok children, get off Joystiq and Myspace and get back to class.
el serpiente @ Apr 17th 2008 11:06AM
All pumped up for 'We Cheer!' fernanny?
Shmil @ Apr 17th 2008 12:07PM
@el serpiente
try to stay on topic. If you dislike Fernando's troll like statements the only way to fight it is by ignoring. You are only lowering yourself to troll like level to make fun of him. You are no better than any other hated troll on joystiq.
On topic: These maps need more blackout

"I second that..."
Of course you do Fernando; I've come to expect the lack of original thought in your posts.
el serpiente @ Apr 17th 2008 12:40PM
Are YOU pumped up for 'We Cheer', Shmil?

OOOOOHHHHHHHKKKKAAAAAAAYYYYYYY
WWWWWHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It is pretty pathetic that I have to throw in a disclaimer because of all of the PC whineboys on this blog.
jaredgood1 @ Apr 17th 2008 10:42AM
Much like the only reason I picked up COD, I'll probably only download this to shut my friends up.
343 Guilty Fart @ Apr 17th 2008 12:30PM
You too, huh?
jaredgood1 @ Apr 17th 2008 1:09PM
Yep. It's not that I think it's a bad game (for a console FPS, it's pretty damn good), but every time I play it I just look over at my copy of Warhawk and think how much more fun I'd be having dropping a cluster bomb on a jeep with a flag runner in it or blasting a Nemesis out of the sky with a missile turret or throwing a landmine on a passing enemy tank, etc.
343 Guilty Fart @ Apr 17th 2008 2:01PM
I feel the same way, only I look over at Halo. The main thing I'm enjoying about CoD4 is the leveling-up-my-dude part, but I'm not enjoying the actual combat/gameplay part.
Alex @ Apr 17th 2008 3:04PM
It really isn't that good is it?
(Agreeing with jaregood1)
I traded it in for Burnout Paradise...Whenever I say that I usually get looks of disgust.
rc @ Apr 17th 2008 10:45AM
Too little too late. 5 days before GTA IV= no buy for me. Hope the money MS paid them to delay it on PS3 will make up for all the money they will miss out on downloads. Oh and nobody cares what you think Fernando, you turd.
Matt B @ Apr 17th 2008 3:05PM
I second that.
Brucie B @ Apr 17th 2008 10:45AM
Great Maps my PS3 Friends!
Too Bad you had to wait for them...
j.howlett @ Apr 17th 2008 10:46AM
when is the GOTY edition droping for PS3?
Phranctoast @ Apr 17th 2008 10:51AM
Same day, or that Tuesday I believe.
j.howlett @ Apr 17th 2008 10:55AM
thanks, i heard it comes with a code for this map pack
xFenixKnightx @ Apr 17th 2008 10:47AM
Those old maps? Pfft! I keed, they are awesome and very beautiful at that. Worth every bit of $10.00 indeed. Creek is huge, broadcast is very well laid out and Chinatown is crazy. Killhouse is playable on Free-for-all and it gets insane!
Kevin @ Apr 17th 2008 11:04AM
Chinatown sucks balls.
PojoMofo @ Apr 17th 2008 11:26AM
For $5 dollars, they love you long time...
xFenixKnightx @ Apr 17th 2008 11:26AM
Im not gonna lie I hated it at first too. But now I have that map down and know all the ins and outs so Im really diggin it now. I love how the streets have that wet (just finished raining) look to them. It looks great.
Phranctoast @ Apr 17th 2008 12:20PM
Chinatown is a remake of another map from COD. forget the name. They basic layout is exactly the same but they changed it to look like Chinatown.
xFenixKnightx @ Apr 17th 2008 1:02PM
I beleive its Carenton from part 2 but I never really got into COD2's online so I never got familiar with that map.
JoSav @ Apr 17th 2008 10:56AM
Omg thats old , owned , i already enjoyed them on XBox Live , looks like PS3 is always late , late late late.
el serpiente @ Apr 17th 2008 12:43PM
At least it doesn't break, break, break.
PojoMofo @ Apr 17th 2008 11:10AM
Does every fucking thread really need to turn into console warz!!!!!!!!! Fucking pathetic!!!!
That being said, BLLLLLUUUUUUUUUURRRAAAAYYYYY FTW!!!!!
Sidebuster @ Apr 17th 2008 11:14AM
So... can I get them for the PC?
dave Nichols @ Apr 17th 2008 11:46AM
...And a week later for the UK... too little too late. GTA4, please, take my money.
ThePremierAssassin @ Apr 17th 2008 11:59AM
Well I've been enjoying them on LIVE for a cool week or so now so this isn't really all that special...
TOO BAD SO SAD pos3...
Ninjakamster @ Apr 17th 2008 12:16PM
Did your 360 RROD ThePremierAssassin?
You'd think with all the game the 360 has, you'd be too busy playing them instead of bashing the PS3 for some odd reason. You have a 360, your happy with it, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't be an immature prick and go out and bash another console, I'd just enjoy mine.
Hell, you'd think it'd be PS3 fanboys bashing other consoles here since our console has no games and we watched all the Blu-Ray movies.
ThePremierAssassin @ Apr 17th 2008 12:22PM
Daytime: School/Work/Joystiq
Nightime/LateNite: 360/Wii/Joystiq/Food (in that order sometimes)
Any other questions pos3 fanboy?
Ninjakamster @ Apr 17th 2008 12:29PM
Yeah, why are you still using the default Mario avatar, your so boring, man, your a boring person, booooorrrrriiinnnggg!
Oh wait, and does bashing the PS3 make you feel better? Seriously, I see no point. If I had a 360 and/or Wii, I'd just be playing them happily, ignoring the PS3, saying nothing good nor bad.
Now if PS3 was the only console this gen, THEN I may act like you, but otherwise, you got the competition, your very happy with it, so why do the bashing? Doesn't do a bit of good. Just makes you look immature.
ThePremierAssassin @ Apr 17th 2008 12:31PM
I actually did try to change my avatar...not sure why it didn't work...
I'm gonna go try again. Is there like a size limit or anything that I should be aware of?
cc123 @ Apr 17th 2008 2:03PM
"Is there like a size limit or anything that I should be aware of?"
I believe there is a minimum IQ required to change your avatar. Judging by your other posts you probably don't meet this requirement.
Tranando @ Apr 17th 2008 2:26PM
a week is alot shorter than it takes for your shi tty console to get fixed every other month.
Microsoft are playing dirty here, and paying off companies to delay PS3 maps and such.. Sound desperate to me...
Alex @ Apr 17th 2008 3:12PM
Tranando,
no, they are released on Xbox first because the maps will have been developed and designed on a computer (Most likely Windows) and therefore it will be easier to recode the maps to run smoothly on the 360 because it is more like a PC than the PS3. (Doesn't it run on a simplified version of Windows anyway?) As the PS3 gets more used, more things will come out at the same time because developers will be getting used to coding for the alien PS3 system.
So quit the 'MS are playing dirty' thing and just shut up or put up. Simple.
Phranctoast @ Apr 17th 2008 12:25PM
wahhh wahhhh. Why are all the Sony fanboys picking on me? All I said was POS3. I'm neutral...really...
Just summed up your next 5 posts.
ThePremierAssassin @ Apr 17th 2008 12:29PM
Naw....I admit what I said was probably bothersome to you ps3 fanboys...
So what? Its a fact. 36o owners got this earlier than ps3 owners.
Its a fact that I'm enjoying the new maps. Feel free to cry and whine and come up with a retort. I've said all I have to say in this thread.
Ninjakamster @ Apr 17th 2008 12:31PM
Your enjoying the maps so much you take the time to go out and bash the PS3? Um....ok.
Phranctoast @ Apr 17th 2008 12:37PM
I summed up 1. Im sure you have another 4 in you.
You act like you're five. first, its haha..i have it before you do, followed by...Im done with this topic because I'm the internet winner of the world.
How old are you really? You cant be in college.
I never get tired of calling you out.
borland502 (SDF - Macross Ring) @ Apr 17th 2008 12:47PM
"So what? Its a fact. 36o owners got this earlier than ps3 owners."
Just one question for you buddy. Have you ever been irritated at PS3 fans quoting poor 360 build quality? That's a fact too, but many seem to get a little ruffled at unprovoked statements of that fact.
Enjoy your CoD4 levels, and if you're going to state facts with a little trollish flair, have the balls to not feign surprise at the reactions. Even Fernando doesn't sink that low anymore (much).
ThePremierAssassin @ Apr 17th 2008 4:02PM
"I never get tired of calling you out"
How exactly did you call me out? All you did is make a false prediction and try to make me feel bad about y statements.
?????
el serpiente @ Apr 17th 2008 5:01PM
Premier, it's good to know when you got pwned. You have received a beating. Gracefully walk away, and salvage what little remains of your dignity and pride.
Tim The Enchanter @ Apr 17th 2008 1:33PM
You know, if we really want them to stop bashing the Ps3, we shouldnt be bashing the 360 in retaliation. Just sayin'.
Both consoles have their merits, but flamming fanboys who bash other consoles in threads that don't concern them have none.
Ninjakamster @ Apr 17th 2008 2:00PM
I dunno, I'm seeing 360 fanboys starting the attack first with PS3 guys retorting as I did earlier here. I think it used to be PS3 fanboys but now they have become quiet, 360 fanboys though are getting more annoying and arrogant.
dark_inchworm @ Apr 17th 2008 2:30PM
Fanboys in general are annoying and arrogant. Don't pin it on any particular system. Fuck each and every one of those people.
Tim The Enchanter @ Apr 17th 2008 2:38PM
Exactly. I mean, either way, if we complain about it and then retaliate in the same way, we're on the same level.
I own a 360, I love it. I love the PS3 just as much but for different reasons. I don't bash either because it's childish, no matter who started it. And I get tired of reading half-witted retorts back and forth. I just want good discussion on both ends.
Why can't we just all get along? Won't anyone think of the CHILDREN?!?! lulz
