Anyone have experience with Child of Eden? I'm looking to pick it up in 2012 feb, since it should get a price drop by then, and it looks really phenominal. I heard it is short but has the replay value to make up for it. If nothing else it is a beautiful game and even if it is linear and static I am willing to shell out some dough come Feb. Oh I also got a full PSmove, 2 wands, navi, spare DS3, and edit: VVV amazon has it for $40 PS3, $30 for 360. With no kinect I wont be getting it on 360, even if I could barrow my brothers kinect. I am looking at $20-30 price range, though if it lacks real value I think I can wait. I did wait some 7-9(?)years for REZ HD, which I think was totally worth it.

Over here in the UK at least, Child of Eden is releasing as a cheaper-than-budget title for £15.

Scyron posted:Anyone have experience with Child of Eden? I'm looking to pick it up in 2012 feb, since it should get a price drop by then, and it looks really phenominal. I recently got Child of Eden and I loved it. I too was waiting for the PS3 version, but Amazon had the 360 version for $20 bucks. I was just going to be playing with a controller anyways and the trophies just weren't an extra $20/few months of waiting for me, so I got it. It's hard for me to judge how good it is. Rez is probably one of my top ten favorite games of all time and it's not quite as good as that. It's odd, Rez has four good levels and then an amazing fifth level. Child of Eden has four really good levels and then a lackluster fifth level. One of the things I liked about Rez was is gradually got more complex in interesting with the themes it was trying to present. Child of Eden just kind of lacks that. Also the music isn't quite as good. The addition of vocals kind of takes away and makes a few moments feel a little corny, especially towards the end. Still, it is a GORGEOUS game. I beat El Shaddai last month saying it might have been the prettiest game I've played and this soundly beats it. There are visuals in this game that are mind blowing. There are things going on in the first level that are so unique that it's actually hard to follow. The gameplay is also still pretty fun. I like Rez a bit better with it's evolving weapons, but it's still pretty much Rez. In general, if you liked Rez, you must own this game. It is a worthy, if not quite as good, sequel. Yes, it's short but I still play Rex from time to time to this day, and I can see myself doing the same with Child of Eden.

I especially find this hilarious in regards to the history me and sony have. Anyhow, if that is the case, I might just wait and pick it up day 1 as a digital since that actually would be a preferred medium, for this type of game. Thanks for the heads up though.

I think this Dark Souls info needs to be reposted in this thread in case anyone is on the fence about this game. Here is some multiplayer pvp info originally posted by Nelson Mandingo. There's spoiler tags around it in case you want to know absolutely nothing about the game, but it's really almost solely about multiplayer information. The multiplayer is shaping up to be incredible and I'm just floored by how unique some of this stuff sounds. You have multiple systems of PVP. Black Phantom Invasions, Gravelord, Vagrant, and finally Bounty Hunting. I suppose Way of the White is too. Whenever you die you become Hollowed. Through defeating bosses and obtaining items in the game you can reclaim your human body back. In your hollow/zombie form you are given an unknown penalty, but cannot be invaded by other players. In your human form your character has no penalties and as at it's strongest, but is open to invasion by player Black Phantoms. #1. Black Phantom Invasions- They're like your typical Demon Souls black phantom invasions. Up to two player Black Phantoms can invade your game and you must defeat them or die. Show no guilt or remorse, they're here to take your life. To become a black phantom it's likely just as it was in Demon Souls. You use a specific item while in your Hollow Form to invade other player worlds. #2. Gravelord- A summoned Black Phantom who interferes with players. A gravelord is either a sign on the ground, or an actual enemy. It's unclear to me at this point. When a player summons a Gravelord, it goes out and finds another player's world and turns it into a pure black tendency. Enemies are then at their strongest, and Black Phantoms attack you. The world becomes harder when a Gravelord is around basically. The player must find the Gravelord to remove the curse on their game. Once finding them, they are able to teleport into the summoner's world and attempt to kill them in retribution. If they succeed their world is reverted back to normal. #3. Vagrants- I am just going to copy and paste Lordpen's post. "Vagrants are NPC Black Phantoms spawned from dropped equipment. Dropped equipment has a chance to become a vagrant and invade other peoples' worlds. The longer items are on the ground, the more powerful the Vagrant. The more powerful the vagrant, the higher chance it will drop better armor than what spawned it. Essentially, you might run across an NPC Black Phantom that drops rare armor simply because someone decided to drop a set of armor from their world and it morphed into a Vagrant that invaded yours." #4. Book of the Guilty / Player Bounty Hunting- In the game there is a system called Covenants. They're essentially factions, and promises you make to those factions. They help you roleplay your character a bit more and give you rewards. They also have some significance with player interaction online. When a player breaks their covenant, their name comes up in "The Book of the Guilty". The book of the guilty item is given by "Blade of the Darkmoon" covenant. When you join this covenant your job for them is to find and hunt other players who have broken their promises. #5. Way of the White Covenant- This one doesn't really make sense to me. I'll just copy / paste the information from the wiki. "This covenant is for helping out other players online. Players who are in this covenant will automatically be drawn closer to each other on the network. This makes Miracle Resonance easier to perform, as well as helps block people from antagonistic covenants from coming closer on the network."

Though I wonder which I'll go for. On the one hand, invading as a black phantom was fun, but on the other, playing as a blue phantom and taking out the rear end in a top hat black just as he was about to take out the primary player - that was way cool too.

rndm posted:Anyone else hooked on From Dust? I'm really liking it, reminds me of old school strategy games on the PC. Absolutely yes. Initially I was kind of puzzled because the game appeared to be very different from what I figured it would've been (thought the game would be more open and sandbox-ish), but a couple of levels in I understood what it was all about and loved every minute of it. I also love the visuals, nothing I've ever seen in video games comes close to zooming into a lone human wandering on a broken desert while a massive volcano erupts in the background, spewing ash and lava in all directions. Gorgeous poo poo that once again proves that a strong art direction is more important than a shitload of polygons and crazy effects. Basically the only gripe I've had with the game is the stupid pathing. CAT ASS now!!! fucked around with this message at Sep 26, 2011 around 18:29 |

The multiplayer is shaping up to be incredible and I'm just floored by how unique some of this stuff sounds. Some of that stuff is a little off, but as I did a bunch of pre-release work for Namco on the game, I can't really say what. By and large, though, it's right and yes, the game is absolutely mind-blowing. Without a doubt, it's From Software's opus. For decades now, they've stuck to their guns and made niche games that should only appeal to a small audience, but if Dark Souls doesn't really catch on, there's no justice in this industry. God dammit do I wish I could talk about Dark Souls...

Nathan Drake's iconic parachute fall (0:06) Resistance soldiers (0:14) Glowing Chimera eyes (0:11-0:15) Ice Cream truck from Twisted Metal (0:23) Writing on top means either "Long Live Play" or "Game is the new goddess" (0:25) Mk.II from Metal Gear Solid 4 (0:26) PlayStation logo on top (0:27) Little Big Planet scoring bubbles (0:34) Ratchet's Wrench (0:38) Nero's Sword???
