Playstation Network - General Discussion Thread

Ignore me.

^ Why we like you XX

[ChrisF]

It's for your own good!

[huxley]

lol....

[merf]

not seen anybody discuss it but I nabbed that sixaxis controlled skiiing game yesterday

not many courses and bit rough round the edges graphically but the control works really well tiliting to steer your skier.

not sure its worth a fiver but we had a fun hour or so racing each other best ghost times.

[ChrisF]

It was discussed, and then clearly swept under the carpet. I think the general concensus was that it was rubbish. "Controlworks really well" was not something that was mentioned though. Quite the opposite infact

[JP]

The controls worked perfectly...

...as long as the course didn't involve going down hill or corners. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the two included courses involved a bit of both.

I belive that future courses will be released which include neither of those things to the extent that the game does at the moment!

The upcoming download involves a level where you stand in the snow and say things like "Aaw, look at the view...lovely".

The game will then be called "Don't Go!! No Sports!! Stand!!"




True story...

[merf]

ha ha, just shows how a view can be untainted by the poisonous thoughts of forums !

we really enjoyed playing it and had no probs getting round bends at all if you read the instructions.

at a fiver its a tad toppy but if it had been £2-£3 would be fine.

I think that the main problems I had was getting stuck behind stuff far too often.

I do think that they are releasing extra levels for it sometime. I do feel that it really needed polishing up quite a bit though as it didn't feel finished to me.

Have you downloaded the 2.01 update? I've had this problem intermittently since 2.0, but 2.01 is apparently up now hopefully that's fixed it?

[JP]

Just been playing G-Police!

Still hoping that this will get a PS3 update sometime, maybe when Wipeout HD is out.

It doesn't seem as difficult as it used to. I think it may just be because when it was launched the two stick flying thing was fairly new but it's old news now really.

I think this is the first 2 disc download on the PSN too? When you press the home button it gives you the option to switch discs.

I really can't wait until next month when Kula World is released. That's an instant buy for me as soon as it's up.

Don't know why I get these emails, maybe it's because I signed up to the Store on my PC or because I opted in on the PS3?

Either way, it's good news!!!
