first initial, second initial, first four letters of my last name and it is supposed to be pronounced swoll like ripped because thats kind of a nickname of mine and my football number at the end.
2's a good number
im number 2 for my footy team although i should be 3 (left back).
i have no idea what you're talking about lol. i mean american football… should've said that sorry
lol thats not football. I mean how often does your feet even touch the ball? Shouldn't even be classed as a sport ! Did you ever play Donkey before, American Football is kinda similar but instead of letters for dropping it you get points for catching it ! WOW, look at me i caught a ball with one hand wooo wooo………spiiiikkke! – onlly jokin :)!
I play football originally number 3 then moved to 11 swapping with 7 every so often.

No. We were playing the same game, you're just a blind half-minded CoD fanboy.
its probably just coz your $hit the reason why you dont like it :/, seen what your like before wouldnt be suprised.
and cmon, you need better insults then that boyyy !
that wasn't an insult knoxie, that was a fact about you.
SP – Short, Story Sucks, Barley Fun
Spec Ops – the most frustrating shit ever
MP – Campers, Shotgun is the new MP40, Killstreaks like Chopper Gunner and AC130 are gay
lol someone is secretly a NOOB
but any way if u need help with spec-ops i''ll help help you as they are really fun to play with ANOTHER PLAYER
I completely agree with the last part Spec Ops for me made it the most fun, and you have to get a friend to do it with you otherwise you would get pi$$ed off pretty fast!
ecurryMemberMW2 is awesomeness guys seriously. could play it over and over again but looking forward to BC2 i loved the online in the first one. a friend of mine just got the plat and took him 28,000 kills and 11 months to the day to get the bronze “I am Bad Company” trophy and he is probably the best MP i have ever seen. I hope this one wont be as hard!
ecurryMemberits has happened at least once every other game in offline mode. The ball was actually placed a half yard into my own half even the red line shows me in my half in the replay. Women programmers dont even know the offside rule
ecurryMemberI only go for platinums i enjoy and the easiest plat i have is Tiger Woods 10. It takes about 2-3 weeks because of limitations on prize money but the offline trophies are v easy and online pretty easy too. Trophies are only silver and gold too something like 12 silver and 7 gold!
ecurryMemberno i am afraid nice writing is gone 🙁 all it has it PS3 wrote on it in black, the same logo they changed on games when they start up
ecurryMemberyeah i got the MW2 prestige, i am kinda sorry i did for financial reasons but i am also glad i have them for immature reasons 🙂 With the sterling prices you really do get ripped off, we work out cheaper in Ireland and our interest rate is higher too! I wouldn't pay full whack normally unless its a game that has an online timescale that is limited, but in general the games have come down over here. Curency conversion is very poorly done i think!
ecurryMemberI don't know if the slim is necessarily better than the previous models. I think it is a cheaper version in order for Sony to start making money again, but maybe they learned from there previous mistakes and fixed the overheating issues and saved money by using cheaper components, time will tell. Cosmetically it is no where near as nice as the original 60GB model, it cant stand vertically, the touch buttons are now mechanical, casing has a Matt finish now and no longer semi-translucent, PS logo does not move, 2 USB ports, no SD card support (i have never used that anyway) and it doesn't look as tough and modern anymore
EDIT
I was just wondering if anyone has ever tried using a USB hub on the slim PS3, if there is any issues with drivers etc., i have never tried one out but could probably do with it. I dont have one as my
PC has 13 USB ports 🙂 but i used to have my controller cable, camera, keyboard and flash memory stick in the Original PS3 but the slim only has 2 ports now I have to constantly plug stuff IO all the time, very irritating!ecurryMemberyeah i agree it is definitely not worth it. Now microsoft are introducing the pay to play online feature to PC games which has really pi$$ed of my housemate He has a silver membership live account to play a windows live game Warhammer something… but MP access has been deactivated unless he purchases a gold membership account lol Microsoft are ruining the concept of gaming, but it is kind of funny to watch him fret over it!!!

Don't worry, i like a friendly debate also… The BBC i-player was given out in an official FW update… It has it's own column and i can launch it straight from the XMB without going through the web browser… You can also now get it for the Wii…
And with rumors of LoveFilm and sky having talks with SONY is very interesting… It seems you get screwed for staying in Ireland man..
Wow that is something i never heard of being introduced as a FW update, it really surprises me i have been saying for a long time it is not something i can ever see happening for legal reasons, but i have been proven wrong. That really pi$$es me off now that you can get this in the UK and we can't. Ireland really sux, it is such a backwards country.
So backwards in fact that my hometown in the countryside the residents there (aka the furniture) are petitioning against the introduction of Broadband in case they cook like they were in a Microwave. WTF!!!!!!! I hate this country some times. It's as if nothing exists outside of this country!!!!! aaarrgggh Everything i hate about this country is highlighted even more so. Its official guys Broadband is the devil and cooks you from the inside out – dial up is the way forward over here, lets bring back the wind up radio and Betmax tapes while we're at it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man i wish we had the iPlayer that would be awesome. Sorry for wronging you on the iPlayer, I have been pwned

4 of my favorite videos by Remi Gaillard. Its in french but its a video
I seen some of his before. Very gifted footballer 🙂
ecurryMemberlol yeah good point on the offline multiplayer “days when you needed real friends…” N64 Goldeneye is probably the most fun i have had in MP , ever! And yes Command and conquer is not suitable for consoles with controllers rather than keyboards, just my opinion, it for me becomes more irritating than anything else, We are able to use a USB mouse and keyboard with the PS3 so why not use it for games too! it would probably make it easier and more appealing to play RTS games.
Yes you can get a full HD resolution on a pc with the right TV(1920×1080) whether the PC can handle it and make the most of it is another story
ecurryMemberI completely agree, modding a PS3 is a cardinal sin and not worth it. I have yet to see it in action but have never heard of it working before now. I cannot see the appeal of doing it tbh Silly silly people. If it ain't broke don't fix it!
MP may not work with PSN on modded PS3's but if they do mod the PS3 I am sure the cracked games will have there own virus ridden servers to suit online!
I found games to be coming down in price more recently though, most new release's here are now 45 – 50 euro compared to 60-70 euro on release! £60 seems like a lot though i wouldn't pay it!
ecurryMemberPS Welcome to APT Doc-b it is good to have new members with good opinions here.
I can see your point i am not being argumentative and apologies if i come across so. I just like to have a debate about stuff sometimes and by no means am i saying you are wrong just that i see it differently. The bbc iplayer yes you can do it yourself as you are in Scotland in the UK. I stream media form the internet from time to time on my PS3 but i cannot get BBC iPlayer to work here in Ireland, to watch F1 races and discussions mainly and for legal restrictions they will not update the console for it. I know there is the possiblilty of using proxy servers but i don't like using them!
Firmware updates are majorly developed to be similar in all regions and so I cannot see an update rolling out from Sony to add BBC iPlayer specifically for UK residents as it would cost too much hassle legally and pi$$ off everyone else in EU.
Social networking has taken the world by storm it is enormous mainly due to Facebook, I am not a social networking fan at all and therefore have no interest in Home as i see it as an interactive social network. But the figures are there to show that social networking is a large part of peoples lives nowadays (sadly ) and therefore i can see the appeal of this as part of the PS3 network.
If we didn't float Sony's bank balance we would not have what we have today and the future of Playstation would come under threat. They (Sony) are not as stable as they make themselves out to be and i can see the PS3 lasting until 2016 at the earliest before we see the next generation of gaming consoles. The profits from the PS2 are still far superior to PS3 profits. And so i can understand why they roll out so many purchasable modifications, I like personalising consoles PC's etc so this work for me and I would say the majority of people would be the same but I understand it is not what everyone wants. If you want it you buy it if you don't you wont.
There are updates that i would like that haven't happened yet – mainly the music in background option while gaming other than that i think Sony are doing a brilliant job of maintaining the consoles appeal
ecurryMemberI have not seen any slim consoles experiencing YLOD. Majority of YLOD consoles are the original 60GB model, but more recently i have seen some of the 2nd generation of PS3's (40GB and 80 GB) have suffered the same fate
The HDD does not make a difference contrary to popular belief. It is mainly caused by poorly programmed games or games that push the console to its limits, which causes serious overheating.
Whether the console is standing upright or flat also makes no difference.
There is usually a warning when it is about to happen:
- Abnormal fan speed / noise.
- Game freezing, requiring a forced shutdown.
- Very hot air constantly blowing from the console.
Preventative action can be taken:
- Store PS3 in the open, not in TV units etc.
- clean PS3 of any dust, internally (without removing the clamps holding the fan and CPU in place) – simply blowing should clear the troublesome dirt.
- If any symptoms occur turn off the console immediately and leave for the rest of the day to cool down, then back up any data required just in case
The YLOD is in place of the Green and Red lights that appear on the power switch you will also hear the fan blowing really hard and a quick double beep. I dont think it will definitely happen to the majority of gamers i have seen original consoles played more frequently and still maintain a clean bill of health.
Don't worry about it happening to you too much or it will ruin your gaming experience! It may never happen, who knows
