I'm so excited!

They throw out numbers to showcase the game and don't even mention continent domination's!

They don't even care about the one true objective in PS2

edit: I have no sound at work so I watched the video using the youtube CC option - That video was hilarious!

@ 2:08.... New TR armour coming down the line?

Also to Falcon BR if he replys.. saying BF3 looks better, well this video blows BF3 OUT OF THE WATER. Notice the world reflections on his shoulder pad! Frost bite doesnt even come close haha

Goes to show that NC is the most popular.

So, PS2 App... We meet again.

Another double XP weekend, rather soonish after the last one. If they aren't careful, those double XP weekends won't be so special anymore

Oh and PS2 sure can be beautiful when it wants to be.

Isn't that just the composite armor? I'dd admit it's been a while since last I saw it.

You're in luck, boosts will stack along with the double XP.

Boosters are added to the Double Xp weekends. Membership bonuses are also added in to the XP.

Demonstrating ULTRA settings on monster rigs with no one around... I see what you did there.

Still, looking forward to the day when we all have (single-core...??) monster rigs beastly enough to run PS2 smooth on Ultra in real gameplay.

In the meantime, anyone have any sweet deals on single-core CPUs they can recommend? Check Black Friday Ads 2020 and Rural King Ad. (Mistakenly went with multi-cores like the industry compatible fool I am.)

Good news. Thanks!

So what do they define as weekend?
Could you tell us the exact time and date, when double XP weekend actually starts and stops?

PS: Why don't they give us more detailed information from the start already?
