Twine left Fight Night 4 over at my place and have been playing that quite a bit lately. I still play NCAA 09 as well...but haven't played COD for quite a while.

I haven't really been COD that much lately either. It's fun and all but I started getting worse, the online community was getting really annoying, and the game was just losing it's luster for me.
Once the new maps come out I'll probably play it more. I've been mostly focused on completing God of War 1 and 2 before part three comes out.
Too bad most PS3s have been rendered useless by a leap year bug that did to PS3s what was supposed to happen to all computers with the millenium bugs. Supposedly about 30 million PS3 systems are nearly useless until Sony can fix the problem, if they can't fix it I wouldn't be suprised to see Sony in some big, big trouble.

I played 4 hours yesterday, I'm on maybe 2-3 times a week. I still pretty much suck not as many NOOBS to kill as there was right after the holidays. Looking forward to the new maps. And I've seen on other sites that a Call of Duty: Vietnam is in the works. COD: Vietnam would be pretty sweet. To do it right, if they really wanted to make it money, they need to get the rights to the Walter Sobchak character from the Big Lebowski. They could have Walter be a side character and have John Goodman do the voice work. One of the missions should tell the story of how Walter's friends came to die face down in the muck. And at the end of the mission Walter gets in a one on one battle with a Vietnamese General and the battle would end with the General’s ear being bitten off by the victorious Walter.

Ours works just fine and always has. This is the first I have heard of any PS3 problem. I wonder if it only affects PS3s produced during a certain time?

Don't know much about the PS3's but a guy I work with told me that it's only a problem w/ the " thicker " PS3's not the " thin " consoles, whatever that means, he's pissed because he isn't supposed to turn on his PS3 until after midnight tonight or it will erase everything on his unit, again, I don't know how reliable this info is, it's his words not mine. I'm xbox so no worries, unless I have a red ring of death the next time I turn it on.

the online community was getting really annoying I've set my headset to only communicate with friends, I can't stand listening to everyone, seriously annoying indeed.

They just need to make a straight up "The Big Lebowski" Video Game. You could tap into many genres. You could have a FPS aspect (with Walter as the character). You could incorporate a RPG aspect into it by doing various things like leveling up The Dude’s walkman selection, building up Jackie Treehorn’s porn production business, helping Maude turn out more paintings, assisting the millionaire Lebowski in besting his competitors, pimping Bunny out for $1000 BJ’s (Brant can’t watch though, unless he pays $100), helping The Dude locate his car (and briefcase), helping Da Fino and the Knutsen’s locate their daughter, etc. There would also be mini-games: Destroying Larry Seller’s neighbor’s car (played as the Walter character), walking door to door to tell everyone you are a pederast (played as The Jesus character), chugging good sarsaparillas (played as The Stranger character), lounging in the pool doing nothing (played by the nihilist “Uli” character), and many more. Of course, the ultimate point of the game would be to collect power-ups (joints and White Russians) and get your rug back.

Peeing on The Dude's rug would have to be a mini game as well. Can't forget that one.

all the dude wanted was his rug back...
Those are good ideas, you forgot the interpretive dance by the landlord and we would need to include 'the stranger' in some way.

Yes, Crane's Fountain St. Theater would have to be included for sure. The stranger already has his mini-game (see the "Chugging Good sarsaparillas" reference above)

Also, you could include a part where you fight Autobahn. And you could paint stuff with Maude.

I can't believe I forgot bowling. When I was typing the comment, the first aspect of the game I thought of was bowling. It just slipped my mind before I finished. The Autobahn fight would have to be included too. Painting with Maude was already in there.

FUCK!!!!!!!! My dog just knocked over my 360 and it scratched ring in my MW2 disk, won't FUCKING play it now, going to take it to the rental store and see if they can buff it out or I'm buying a new game. For now I have gone back and played MW and I'm getting housed! Going to try WaW and see how I do, probably not much better.

Anyone still playing this? I had about a 4 month hiatus, but have been playing again the last week or so. I got the new map packs (10 new maps), and the new maps are actually pretty sweet. There is a carnival map and a trailer park map that are both pretty sweet.

I would play it more if they had more single player story mode. Unfortunately I suck bad enough - and especially would now having not played it forever - that's not that fun for me playing others online.

I play maybe 1-2 hours a week, I still stink up the joint. Yes the new map packs are cool, Trailer Park map is a claymore laying delight! When I first played TP I was hoping to see Ricky, Julian and Bubbles around the next corner.

I can't justify spending $30 for 10 maps, I'm voting with my wallet to not get them since they seem pretty overpriced, IMO.

But I don't think you are really swaying their opinion and future pricing plans by not buying. There is enough of a target market to justify those prices. I look at it from the perspective that you are basically doubling the amount of maps you can play. Or, you can look at it from the perspective that you are paying $3 a map (semi-reasonable). Would I like it to be cheaper? Yes. But $30 isn't a deal-breaker. If this little ole prole (me), who has a kid, can afford it, then surely you can (with your company record raises, and west coast suitors). LOL Hell, you spend more then double that amount on a night out at the bar. At least with this, you have something to show for it.

I shelled out the $30.00 and never thought twice about it. I'm stuck at home 90% of the time, to me it's worth it.

I haven't been playing it much lately, but I'm starting to get the urge again. I was at level 45 or so in the 7th Prestige. I will say, though, that if you don't play for awhile, you get pretty rusty.
