Showtime mode? If so, I've not done one yet. I didn't like crash mode in the others either, so I'm glad it's gone.

No, Stunts. Stunts and Showtime are two totally different things (Stunts are Green markers).

I've noticed a slight drop in frame there, not a GREAT lot, but certainly a lot more noticable, especially in the heart of the city where the central area is with all the screens and billboards.

That is what Gamespot and 1up said, certainly nothing major or to be worried about.

A lot of people on ps3 sending me invites. Anyone fancy getting 6 or 8 of us together and trying the online challenges? I will send some invites out in a bit after I finish 1 or 2 events.

I'm up for that mate, just give me 10mins to sort something on XMB so I can actually hear people....

It seems online isn't working on the 360 right now.

/sigh

Doug · 27 Jan 2008 at 19:28

The dilema: Buy it on 360 and have no-one to play with; or buy a PS3 and have loads of people to play with...

Hmmm...

Inazuma · 27 Jan 2008 at 19:32

Funds incoming for this game soon

(Unless I spend it on DMC4)
So prepare for some point bashing RP

Just out of interest, I just tried the 360 demo of Paradise City, after playing the PS3 version.

Can't see any difference between them really.
Honestly, the only thing I could see different, was that the text and map icons were lightly sharper on the PS3, which I'd simply put down to the difference of HDMI over component.

Even then, not a massive difference, I only noticed as the text and icons are small, so could tell they weren't quite as sharp.

The game itself though, looks and feels exactly the same on both

I did try to press right to go online on the 360, but my silver membership moaned that I didn't have the right privileges.

An excellent title on both systems

Huh, what about us, the OcUK 360 Crew ?

Marky · 27 Jan 2008 at 19:47

I couldn't see the difference between the 360 and PS3 versions - I'll be getting the 360 one though, due to archivements and people to play with

I have noticed many people seem to use Mics on this game, unlike any other game I've played online.

PS3 online that is.

I have 0 friends. XD

I haven't been on my PS3 much lately due to TF2 on PC, but getting back into the PS3 somewhat now. :cool:

My PSN is LukeManity, but am I right in thinking I can't change that due to Warhawk being 1 use only or so?

I hate that name!

Yes, Warhawk can only be played with the account that purchased it. (The downlodable version)

Just setup another PSN account with a different name. Leave your original one in place just for Warhawk.

Margaret · 27 Jan 2008 at 20:12

Ahhhh I'll just stick with it, I wouldn't mind the name if I had a capital N, looks cool that way.

Really sorry but I still can't hear you on Mic rp2000, I have literally tried everything, put all voice volumes on max etc.

It's OK apart from general hints, I was just cursing when some people decide to take me down whilst I am trying to pick a challenge!!
