Yea,

Supposlly, Europe get the beta w/o preorder. So it should be as simple as making a UK account. You still have to make a Konami ID.

Should be good then, I've never played a metal gear solid, but I know how good they supposedly are, I made a UK account yesterday.

Only 12 more days until GTA4 comes out!!! :)

From what I have ready, just make a UK PSN account, then make a US Konami ID, and you should be able to play in the beta.

Maybe Sunday sometime.


@everyone else,
I think tomorrow you can download MGO without code from Europe? Not sure though, just read something on IGN.

My only bloody problem with racing online is that I work shift work, (in the life of a nurse, shift work is a major curse), 2.45-10.00 PM. I went shopping last night and bought myself a Hyperdrive Racing frame which allows me to mount my G25 Racing wheel and pedals to it. It came with a bonus seat cover too, bloody excellent and very comfortable, it can also be adjusted for any size, I'm 6' and my youngest daughter who is 12 and a bit of a short-arse can also sit comfortably in it. Its also grouse for using it with F1 Championship Edition. The only small prob I have with the frame is that it doesn't have anywhere to mount the 6 speed/triptronic gear shift which is a separate unit to the wheel so at the moment, until I work out the best way to mount it, I'll have to settle for changing gears with the wheel paddles:confused:

Yeah maybe build a post for the shifter out of wood and stick it in a small wood box filled with cement to hold it in place. something like that donno gotta take a crap!

Ive yet to make a psn acount, but I just got GT5 Prologue today!

I'm sure I'll work something out, I'm pretty handy with that sort of thing, I was actually a boilermaker/welder back in the late 70's early 80's, trouble is I don't own a freakin welder, that'd solve my problems. And Josh, sorry but I can't race right now, too much shit to do before I go to work. I'll jump on the forum 2morrow between 3.30 and 4.00 PM cause I'm workin an early 2morrow an shoulld be rarin 2 go by the arvo.:banghead:

G'day Rhino, it seems that the PS3 online gaming system just matches you up with anyone that it thinks is at the same skill level, I'm probably wrong, but I've noticed you can have a friends list although I've noticed nothing that allows players to pick and choose who they compete against. It would be very interesting to know if its possible cause thats one of the great aspects of on line gaming with the PC. I wonder if Sony themselves would be able to give you any answers?

well i guess it is a question on how the playstation network handles internet gaming. when warhawk came out they had setup a massive server wrack of PS3s. so im not sure if you need something like that to handle a dedicated server. or is it that if i "host" a game it actually starts up a host through a massive network similiar to the warhawk one.

i would host one but i only have 1 mbps upload speed.

I only have 1mbps upload too, although I think it should be faster because my ISP plan is 'up to 24mbps D/L (i only get 5-6mbps) but upload is still 1mbps and when the host for a race is auto chosen in GT5 P, you very quickly fkow if they have enough bandwidth, and 1mbs doesn't seem to be quite there. Maybe when the full GT5 game comes out they will offer dedicated servers, then at least we wouldn't have to put up with the idiots whos only intent is to ram everyone else off the road to win:mad:. Ahh well, we can only dream:ohwell: I'm off to work now, cya's:cry:
