Well that's it then… England reinstated as the greatest football team in the world
Looks like it'll be up to the Germans (after their through beating Ghana) to put a “fly in your ointment”

What was the meltdown? Was it a few days ago, because I couldn't log on to this site for more than 5 seconds.
That's 5sec more than me, lol… Couldn't get on for a couple of days
Pretty much a couple days just after E3 and i couldn't even moan about Sony… But yes, that's what i refer to as “the meltdown”
.I remember sometime from the past Admin mentoning that the server is also used for something to do with the world cup… I can only think it was something to do with that??
Well my E3 this year can be summed up by the fact i almost pre-ordered a X-Box 360 'S' Version…
Not good!! Sony better their sh!t out soon…
I don't care what the fanboy's think but Microsoft brought the goods at this years E3, listening to what people want…
I don't have time to play two consoles… I don't even play my Ps3 as much, and with all my mates already on x-box and the reasons to switch are mounting up. I still feel that I'm in the same place as i was when i started with my Ps3 3 years ago… Why are Sony looking towards 3D when they can't even get simple chat settings sorted.
TBH the only thing making me stick with Sony for the time being is the time, money and effort I've put into Ps3… And the people I've met… Sony need to get back to basics and sort their service out. This new X-Box 'S' is very, very appealing to people frustrated with the PSN!
Date – 29th June
Price – €14.99 / £11.99 for 90 days and €49.99 / £39.99 for a whole year.
**The thing about the 3 free months was a bit of a sham really. From what i gather there was rumor that everyone would get a free trial… No. Anyone in the US buying a year will get 15months for the price of 12. Anyone buying a year in Eu will get a DL version of LBP for free. **
“Free” content will only be available as you are subscribed to PSN+, meaning it's more like a rental service. Also, free game credits, don't stack – If one month you don't want any of the free games offered, you lose the credit. There's also no inclusion of free movie rentals.
The only things i think you do get to keep if you don't re-subscribe are the avatars and themes you get. And the copy of LBP if you go for the year. I think it's stupid they didn't wait until LBP2… They would have sold the service by the bucket load if they had.
I'm 100% not getting this crap!! Nothing that i want is included, I'd rather continue to pay and keep the few games i buy i year. Auto-Update, you want me to pay for that Sony?? WTF? Minis and classics don't have trophy support, will trophy whore's care about these free games?
If you've already bought a lot of games etc. from the store this service loses it's value even more. Cross-game chat, mentioned on the Playstationplus website itself, has vanished.It also mentions that with the free 1-hour trial, all tophies and unlocks you gained will be given back with purchase of the full game. Does this mean that at the end of subscription your trophies will vanish along with your games? I guess we'll find out next year, lol… When will Sony give us stuff we want
You should read through the comments on the links provided… They should answer all your questions but here is some info anyway. It's easy to be confused about this because there has been a lot of diff. info given, as official info.

£40 a year for what is effectivly a rental service – No thanks.
@ kog – I can't seem to find a UK version anywhere… And trust me I've looked, lol… There's also gonna be a trophy for “Harcore aka RPG mode”- Gold i'd imagine
I could only find a listing on Amazon(dot)com, but the DVD wouldn't be PAL 🙁 The thing to remember though is the game ain't out for about 5 months yet, so the CE won't be available for pre-order until they start producing them. I'm guessing September or something?
Also, if you ain't getting the CE (shame on you) there are diff. game unlocks depending on where you pre-order.

Whenever i get any worthwhile new info I'll post it here
A collectors edition has been announced by Bethesda, here is what your getting…
- Seven “Lucky 7″ poker chips, each chip representing one of the major casinos along the main strip and around the Mojave dunes.
- A “Lucky 38″ chip (made to look like a Platinum coated quest item found in game).
- A themed deck of playing cards, featuring lots of character art from the game. There's also a rule-set for a game called 'Caravan'. A completely new game created for New Vegas, also featuring in the game itself.
- The hardback graphic novel “All Roads” which acts as a prequel to the game (It's written by some of the folks at Dark Horse comics).
- A making of DVD with stacks of behind the scenes footage and new interviews from Obsidian and Bethesda.

Nothing as cool as the pip-boy Bobblehead, but I'll still be getting this… I think this game is gonna be what everyone wanted Fallout 3 to be, and were disappointed it wasn't. The team behind it has had more time to work with the Ps3 and say they've sorted a lot of the “bugs”.
Larry Liberty (Lead Producer)
The engine itself was first used in Oblivion first, then moved over to Fallout, so i don't think the engine was made to be a Ps3 engine from the beginning. It has been a challenge, but it works well now, especially with the new libraries that help to enhance performance. (PSM3 mag.)
With the addition of…
Weapon upgrades; Three per weapon, cannot be removed and reused, and apparently having a noticeable change to the look of the weapon… Along with all “special weapons” looking diff. to the standard version and some having a special V.A.T.S attack.
The Reputation status; No more skipping time a few days and going back to a town you “accidentally” shot someone in the back of the head, lol. You will actually have to work to get back into NPC's ”good books”
Less browns, more greens… New and tougher enemies… More “interactive” locations… Gambling… A Better story (hopefully) – Your a Courier, shot twice in the head and left to die at the side of the road… I can think of at least a dozen questions to ask just from that short sentence.
And oh yeah, “Hardcore Mode” – Firstly, kog, are you kidding me man? One thing i didn't like about fallout, besides all the lag/bugs/problems, is how it didn't really feel that RPG'ish… I didn't really feel a connection with the char. as such… All i had to do was push a button to heal occasionally.
Bethesda should have called it “RPG mode” – Having to eat/drink/sleep, for me, will make me “feel” much more like I am the char. Having to manage my ammo/food/misc. weight will add to the realism of the Fallout world. For me, in a RPG weight is something i manage closely anyway, so in Fallout 3 I always had masses of empty space. I think a few of the ideas were brought to light through people modding the game, and it's pretty cool of them to factor those elements into the game.
It might make it a fraction harder but not overall.
Hardcore mode will be awesome!! As will the game!!
I can't wait for this, i put so much time into Fallout 3… I'm so hyped for this game, more than words could express, so i won't try…
