Agreed. I, for one, am looking forward to the end of all the needless violence incited by the site of the confederate flag.

Unfortunately, I fear there's nary a seat left on the bandwagon.....

Exactly. My comment was in reference to it being yanked from a Civil War game.

A civil war game being yanked because it uses the confederate flag is, in fact, ridiculous.

With absolutely zero announcements, World of Warships entered open beta yesterday.

Had some mindless fun with it last night.

Snuck 9 holes in today. Since I haven't played a golf game in ages, I'm in awe of a next gen golf game. I like using the stick swing.. cool you can choose to use the LS or the RS. Game is hard so far, even on arcade setting. I'm having fun though and will post more after my 10 hours are up. Right now I'd buy it for $40.. not sure about $60 especially when NHL 16 is around the corner and I still have Batman and Witcher to play.

Well I've totally gotten hooked on World of Warships - it's open beta and free to play and a hell of a lot of fun if you want to drive destroyers, battleships, cruisers and carriers around and blast your enemies.

Pretty funny. Evidently the Russians used a Battlefield 3 game shot to fake smuggled weapons.

Pretty good PS+ list for August. I don't have any of these games, so big bonus for me.

Life is Strange is my favorite game of the year so far. The forth act was great and I can't wait for the finale.

Other favorites for the year are Ori and the Blind Forest, Rocket League, D4: Dark Dreams Don't Die, and Darkest Dungeon.

Great finishing game on the first ever Rocket League tournament. If you want to go directly to the third and final game, click forward to the 15:00 mark.

I watched that last night, and was thoroughly uninterested in getting the game.

I want a new Timesplitters game.

Once they started running up walls and shit I thought...wait Ive played this it called modern warfare.

Is there a realistic FPS "sim" out there bound by real physics?
I've been out of touch for 3-4 years.

Arma III is probably the closest thing to a military simulator, instead of a 'run and shoot at anything' game.

I didn't want to start a new thread, so I figured I'd put this here:

I had a flashing red light on my PS3 this morning. I hit the power button, the light turns green for about two seconds, then starts flashing red again. Of course, the PS3 does not turn on.

Is it a pretty good bet that my console is dead?

APC, What you want to do is look for this button on the back of the console. It must have been bumped on accidentally:

It'a probably dead from what I remember. Hardware malfunction of some sort.

If you don't have it on warranty and don't want to send it in and pay, try this video. It probably requires a couple of hours but seems to have worked for a ton of people.

Speaking of consoles, does anyone know how much Gamestop is paying for PS3 and XBox 360? Probably should trade them in before they lose even more value.
