adamsappel Posted August 2, 2003 Report Share Posted August 2, 2003 I rarely play any of my Sony online games due mostly to the high asshat factor. I was hoping we could use this thread to arrange a few games amongst ourselves, maybe in combination with a private Xbox Live Tetris game for ease of communication (I don't have a USB headset, either). I have SOCOM, Tribes:Aerial Assault, Auto Modellista, Amplitude, Twisted Metal:Black Online, and the Madden and Frequency demos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted August 2, 2003 Report Share Posted August 2, 2003 I'd love to play Amplitude sometime Alan. I havent been online on my PS2 since I quit playing Socom (highly anticipating Socom 2!) so I've never had a chance to try Amp online.

Sherbz Posted August 2, 2003 Report Share Posted August 2, 2003 I'm always up for some Amplitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheus Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 If I can find a cheap copy, I'll pick up Amplitude. Looked like it'd be fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris F Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 OH YEAH. Amplitude. I'm In! I just have to buy a network adaptor for my PS2 this weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsappel Posted August 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 I guess I'll open up my copy of Amplitude, then. Damn but I'm terrible at rhythm games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 I'd be up for some amplitude. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Now that my PS2 is online ready, anytime someone wants to try out AMplitude, count me in. I suck at it, but it'd be fun to try. Does anyone have recommendations on a headset I can buy for voice chat? I know not every game supports it, but it'd be good to have one just in case.

adamsappel Posted August 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Datel makes a USB headset for PS2 that is on sale at Best Buy for $29.99 right now. It's called "Talk Net", I think. Don't forget the Gamers Gift Card coupon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 We should also try some Midnight Club II - it's pretty fun online, although a lot of you might be burnt out on that kind of thing from Midtown Madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris F Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 I have Midnight Club 2 for Xbox. :? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsappel Posted August 14, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Okay, I just played a few songs on Amplitude. Fun game! I only played on the "Mellow" setting, but I can see how this could get crazy hard. Has anyone played online yet? I might be able to play this game even with my screwed-up tv screen, since the action seems to take place in the "cone of clarity". Fire up a private Tetris room and we have Live chat as well.

Buck Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Fire up a private Tetris room and we have Live chat as well. You know, that's an awesome idea, Allen. I image it will even be easier as soon as the next version of Live comes out since we won't have to load up a game. Sony online games I own: ATV Off-Road Fury 2 SOCOM THPS3 Tribes Looks like I'll have to pick up Amplitude at some point as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldorado Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Has anyone played online yet(Amplitude)? I've played it online a few times. It's a little different than the single player game, but still a lot of fun. Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 You know I never even bothered to look but does Amplitude support any kind of communication at all (Voice or KB)?? Its insteresting that just popped to mind too because I never even gave it a second though until today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris F Posted August 14, 2003 Report Share Posted August 14, 2003 Oh man, let's give it a try tonight! I love Amplitude, and I'd go a few games with everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris F Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Say 8:30 or 9ish? Maybe this weekend then? I was stuck at work, can didnt get home until just now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsappel Posted August 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 I'd love to try it. This is a really fun game. I went online for a bit to explore the menu and it's a little clunky. My freq name is "adamsappel". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romier S Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Im down for a sunday game. Late nightish perhaps. Bout 10 or so? Love to play with any one of you guys. Allen I haven't even looked at the menu setup on Amplitude I'm ashamed to say. Could you elaborate on clunky? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamsappel Posted August 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Clunky like all PS2 online games seem to be. Hard to find friends online, couldn't tell how/if you host a private game, there's a chat window full of cleverly-named asshats typing 13375p34k and wanting me to "byte" them, too many lobbies, it just feels like it will require some outside coordination to get together in a game.

Romier S Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 Gotcha. From what I've read Socom 2's interface is quite the revelation. Looking forward to seeing what comes of it. Now how about a game on Sunday? :wink: (My skills in Amp are utterly laxed at this point but what better way to practice!) Perhaps Harmonics next in the series will include voice chat as well..(they are working on Kareoke Revolution I believe). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
