My local Best Buy store is opening at 10pm on Monday for a typical American build up to the release time, including a tournament to win a free game :thumbs up: that's where i'll be
Not even gonna be queuing with the other reprobates on Monday night. Waiting to get it on Tuesday when trading in Battlefield 3 piece of trash.
A.:thumbs up:
Hmm, played a few maps and am disappointed, it's just MW2 with new maps and better menus, I never liked MW2.
I'll likely go back to Black Ops
i got it a midnight last night i think the game is better than mw2 better graphics better weapons and way better sound. add me up highlander1730 on ps3
way better that MW 2 the gun sounds are amazeing. the graphics are better. i have not played it online yet but will soon.
add me highlander1730 on psn
i picked up the game at midnight i live in a small town but they opend just for MW 3 and i have never seen our wee blockbuster shop so bize not even in summer dureing the day.
I never done the 12ocklock walk of shame this year, done it for black ops.
Going to pick one up at lunch time, sprint up the road and put the wain to bed pronto!
played my last game of Black Ops last night, box never to be opened again.
Got mine just a few minutes ago. Have to wait until I finish work until I get to play it though. Found this and thought it was funny:

Decided not to bother getting at midnight. I figured sleep was more valuable to me. :D
Getting it today though. Got 9 games to trade in for it.
So I'll be on tonight but not until I get home from work about 10.30pm.

^^^^^^What he said. :lol: 'Cept, I've no bairn to put to bed. :lol:
Oh, and for the sake of site tidiness, I'll close this thread as we have a dedicated COD thread which is stickied to this forum anyway. Hope you don't mind Mark.
A.:thumbs up:
Yep, apart from the fact the noob tubers never learn :lol:
I forgot to take BF3 back to trade in, i'll likely be on at your time cause i'll give it more than a few games before i decide
All round i agree the graphics are better than MW2, but, it feels like you're in a cartoon like environment, exactly like MW2, i can't describe it any better than that.
Black Ops, lag and server issues aside gave a better "feel" of being in the game, just my opinion though :wink:
Just picked up my copy, i've not done much online gaming for a while, but with the 'dark nights' upon us i thought I would give this a bash. I can't remember my PS3 name, but will post it when I find it out :)
You'll have to tell us what you think of it....
I have got it but like Andy won't be on till late :( had a few games this morning tho :) it ok do far we will see
But the camping had allready started :(
IF IN DOUBT FLAT OUT :)
Critics reviews vs User reviews, looks like its taking a bashing!
If its plays well and is fun then I'd be happy....

Played a fair few games today.
The main thing that hosed me off persists in this game, namely the lag issues.
I can accept that a lot of people are trying the game so, this will be my last day of play, will try again in a week if still the same ill be trading it in.
Took ages for some of us to get hooked up into a party and then it was a nightmare trying to play any games
yep not overly impressed will give it a few days or so and see how i get on
I liked it but the lag was the issue for me. Though every Call of Duty has suffered on the first few days due to the number of people playing. I remember World at war, you couldn't even get online. MW2 was also laggy. I have no memory of Black Ops. Ususally within a week or two things start to run fine.
Sorry Gismo, I tried saying bye last night as I needed to go but I don't think you could hear me. Didn;t want you to think I just left without a Cheerio :smilewinkgrin:
I was playing last night for about an hour and a half and I have to say I liked it. Gismo and I had connection problems which is frustrating, but perhaps not unexpected on the first full day of release. Once Gismo left and I was on my own I had no connection problems at all.
I didn't find the camping was any worse than MW2 or BO. One of the maps in particular lends itself to lots of camping and that was frustrating, until I though 'the hell with them, if you can't beat them, join them'.
Certainly, so far I prefer it to black ops. Looking forward to getting my rankings up and getting more guns, add-ons etc.
If the lag problem is still there for Gismo I can only imagine how frustrating that must be. But give it a while and see if it settles down. Also, you should try MW2 or something like that, because if you are still getting a lag on that game - when you can only assume most folk will now be on BO or MW3 - the problem may not be with PSN, it may be your own line. :idunno:
A.:D
We were both getting lag last night. I'd most certainly put that down to the vast amount of people playing on day of release.
I'd still think it's down to the PSN or the COD servers in general when we've played. Just due to the fact that when Gismo hosts a private match we get lower connection speeds and lag. When one of us hosts then it's reversed. Must be the distance from which we're playing at that's causing it. Setting up a VPN may solve the problem for private games but hell if I know how to do that.
Gismo has been nice enough to join us and put up with the lag rather than make us all suffer so he can get a good game. Just a shame we can't all get it running without lag at the same time.
I played for a while lastnight but my broadband is shocking and I got fed up with it.
Today my connection has improved and so has my play, at the moment I still preffer the old game but I think it will be good when you know the maps better and can sort out the campers.
I have now got revenge on, this directs you to the last person that killed you so you can get even.
Playing today, its ok but im sure will be more fun with friends and a bit of banter too.
I now have my NAT type set to OPEN
i will be on soon for a few :)
Since most folks will be on MW3 I'll play again for the banter
I will be on tonight.....PS3 name is MrPot007 :D
Sorry folks, logged off in disgust, went and put fertilizer on the lawns, went back on MW2 and just don't like it.
Same game play as MW2 and I hated that.
1st game back on Black Ops, joint high kill ratio and enjoyed it much more.
The game play suits my style so I'll be sticking to thst
First night playing online and it was really laggy - probably my poor internet to be honest though.
Started the Campaign instead and once that is finished I think I will trade it in and get Battlefield
i will be on all day today and go online with it for the first time too online name highlander1730
I wont be on tonight guys, working till 11pm tonight :sad: Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..................... ......
Game update required tonight guys. Only 21mb though so, no biggie.
