Whoa, once I have completed Mass Effect 2 and Brotherhood I plan to give KZ3 some right pasty online :-)

good to see them fixing things, but to be honest, its not enough. Most want custom games online like KZ2, until they do that I wont play online anymore. The game was completely changed and its broken. Sorry GG, better go back to the drawing board for the next one.

Killzone 3 just keeps giving!
I bumped quite randomly in to Tuffcub a short while ago in an Operations match. He was getting a battering, ha ha.

Lovely. Although I’m worried all these improvements aren’t going to make me a better player! Not my strongest game :/
