I’m going to guess the mystery title is StarHawk ;).
Was Playstation at the MLG Pro Circuit event in Anaheim, CA?
That’s great you guys are coming down south now. If you guys can come to Atlanta next that’d be awesome!
MLG is boring & im disappointed in both Resistance 3 & Uncharted 3. I’ll stick to my fighting games :)
If it’s about Uncharted3 .. Count Me iN!

I wish I could go to Raleigh and compete in these tournaments. The plane ticket is just too much tho :(

Nice! Go UC3!
NC is too far away. Once again im going to miss out on something special
Its looking like I’m going to be there Sunday just for UC3. It is only a few hours from my place. I’m loving the idea of it being a LAN competition!
Uncharted FTW!!!
Im probably gonna go just for uc3
Is there a site to buy tickets to the playstation compound, or do we buy tickets at the door?
I have to work so I can’t compete but I’ll sure be showing up to check out the events.
I hope there is playstation move support in this game as well because i just hate going back to a traditional controller for shooters im hooked to playstation move!
Beta withdraw? Nope because Insomniac is so fly they gave me a beta code;P
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, WAIT. Did I miss the part where Uncharted 3 was announced with LAN support? Oh, this is good. This is VERY good.
