IMO, the PS3 Media Server is a lot smoother while playing videos. PlayOn is cool too though, I haven't dropped the $30 on it yet though.

goes up to $40 Feb 1st as it will be in official release then.

CBS full screen streaming is great on PlayOn as well.

Killzone 2 just got a 9.4 from ign
http://uk.ps3.ign.com/articles/949/949161p1.html
I'm kinda shocked it didn't get a 10 for graphics.. this is easily the best looking console game to date... but not a system seller

Here is the summary:

9.5 Presentation
Everything from the first entrance onto the battlefield to the last cutscene creates a hectic, fun and fast-paced thrill ride through a warzone where each step you take could be your last.
9.5 Graphics
Phenomenal visuals prove that Guerrilla either met or surpassed that infamous E3 trailer. Some technical issues hold it back from being a completely flawless masterpiece.
9.0 Sound
7.1 channel sound captures every nuance of the battlefield from gunshots to screams along with a great soundtrack. Weakly delivered, curse-filled dialogue (sans Brian Cox) could've been done better.
9.0 Gameplay
You'll have to get used to the firearms as well as the AI on both sides. More turret and vehicle sections would've been great, but outside of that, the single-player campaign is fun to play through.
9.5 Lasting Appeal
Multiplayer is extremely deep and has the added bonus of an offline skirmish mode. This is where you'll spend the majority of your time once the credits roll.
9.4
Outstanding OVERALL
(out of 10 / not an average)

Not bad for KZ2. I dont know if i am going to pick it up. I want too, but SF4 is a bigger priority for me. Plus i have to buy a damned arcade stick for it.

88TG88 · 01-30-2009, 07:23 PM

I got WaW, I suck at it.

Does anyone know if you can hook 2 PS3s up to the same router and have them both work fine online?

I tried this once at a buddies house, and we could only get 1 PS3 to be NAT Type 2, while the other one was always NAT Type 3. However, we've had difficulty in the past hooking these 2 particular PS3s up while trying to play online...for some reason we could never be in the same party in COD4.

Anyways, I am moving in with 2 people, 1 of which has a PS3. He currently never goes online, but I am going to be buying a Wireless Router for the new place.

Do you think we will both be able to have full online capabilities from this one router?

aturnis · 02-02-2009, 11:52 AM

Plug one in with an Ethernet cable. Should solve the problem.

**mikeyis4dcats.** · 02-02-2009, 01:06 PM

I tried PS3 Media Server, but it was slow and buggy for me. I'll keep using Tversity.

I was in the PlayOn Beta, but I'm gonna hold out and see if Sony enables a better browser that will work with Hulu.

Well the one we were trying to use was not a Wireless router, they were both plugged in w/ an Ethernet cord.

The new one will be wireless.

Once you get wireless hooked up, do one hard-line, and one wireless. I'd think it should work.

I disagree, until they greatly expand their library.

I signed up for Netflix and when I saw their "Play Now" selection, I cancelled.

I agree it needs more movies but it works for me as they have movies I would like to see and they also have a ton of kids movies which is great for my situation.

Not to call you out on your age or anything, but I just find those movies old and lame. They were probably good movies in your day, but I just cant get interested in them.

Out of all the movies they had, I think I found about 10 that I wanted to watch.

I'm so offended.

Heh. Actually, one of the things I love is the TV series they have there. I will be watching a ton of Simon and Simon. Magnum as well.

Just finished watching American Carol this afternoon. Not great but it made me laugh. Glad I got to see it.
