sidenote: the last few sessions I am getting way worse at the actual game, and way better at trash talk.

blu-ray is awesome. My wife got me a blu-ray player this Christmas. Now I just need a surround sound to go with it. Does PS3 have a surround system too?

7.1, yes, or at least it is compatible. Does anybody here know if it does 5.1 as well? My amp/speaker setup right now is only 5.1 compliant. Not sure what my brother has - probably a tube tv.

I'm sure it will do 5.1.

Why is your brother getting a blu-ray if he doesn't even have a 1080p monitor?

Don't ask me. We tried to make all of these arguments but apparently he's going to get a nicer TV sometime too. Who knows when.

Has anyone had any success with quick-scoping with sniper rifles? I've watched the videos, and I've tried it, but I can't get it to work.

No. But I did find (okay, another team showed me) the most incredible sniping spot on Afghan.

PS3 crowd: can I refer a guy to you? Despite my best intentioned pleas, my bro is going with a PS3 in the near future (wants the blu-ray) and plans on getting MW2, Uncharted, etc. He's an FPS veteran (I've played MW2 with him a couple of times at my house), so I have no doubt he'll be up to snuff after a few hours of play. He's looking for some online friends (the rest of the bros and I are on Xbox) and I said I'd see if you were open to another guy.

Obviously dunno his gamertag or whatever you call it yet, but I can give him y'alls' names and he can add you.

I welcome everyone to our team, even <redacteds> who mock me with stinger missile photos.

Which is?

I will blast your ass off those barrels above the caves.

...a secret, for now. Wuap has no chance at hitting me, though, not from that position.

You can also do the rock glitch. Where you can get inside a rock and snipe from there. I watched someone do it, it was crazy.

We played a team on Saturday night that we were pretty sure had a developer or two on it, based on the places they were using. They were using places we'd never seen before, and knew every wall you could "clip," every off-map site you could get to, stuff like that. Completely different style than anybody I'd ever seen - and I'm not talking about easy stuff, like getting up to the top of the boathouse in estate.

BTW wuap, it's not the barrels above the caves. That spot is way too exposed.

Oh, I know about the orange cones.

Not there either.
