Armor-Piercing posted:I'm still waiting on a complete Red Dead Redemption release, and don't really want to buy the game until it happens. Not sure if you were already aware by your wording, but they are doing exactly this - Red Dead Redemption GOTY edition, on Oct 11th. Has the game + all the DLC packs.

Yep, mafia 2 pisses me off big time. It could have been a drat good game, but it was so glaringly obvious they cut out tons of content on purpose to sell as DLC later. The big, detailed world with nothing to do, and NPCs that are obvious side quest starters that tell you to come talk to them every now and then, but when you do they never actually give you a sidequest, because they hamfistedly took those out of the base game. The game was an infuriating gently caress up and one of the prime examples of DLC going shady.

SamBishop posted:Hmmm, that is a little tough, but I'll try. It's DEFINITELY more awesome so far than Uncharted 2, but that's because I've always wanted more puzzle solving from this series and they've given it in spades thus far. The ratio has been at least 50/50 and the game is all the better for it. I'm glad to hear it is awesome but I really don't like the puzzles in the uncharted games.

blackguy32 posted:Wow, the aiming feels like poo poo in Uncharted 3. Its like its sticky or something or that the deadzone is really loving huge. Its annoying. I'm glad it's not just me that was noticing that, I thought I was just sucking or something. Really irritating but at least melee seems to be way more viable this time around (on normal at least) so I've been punching a lot more dudes in the face, which is making up for it.

I've got a few friends bugging me to pick up BF3 but I'm really picky about FPS games and I've never played a battlefield game before. I really like counterstrike and MAG, and really dislike COD and COD clones. Things that I like: -MAG's skill point system, I liked all the different types of builds you could do. -Being able to live for a good length of time with smart, cautious play, and by cautious I don't mean camping in the same spot. -The overall feel of the game engine in MAG - I felt like my shots went where I aimed, I rarely felt like I died because of "bullshit", the pacing of the movement was fast but not too fast Things that I hate: -Airstrikes/artillery/killstreaks/other things that vaporize huge sections of the map and kill you unavoidably -Grenade spam -Dudes respawning behind you after you kill them -Map design where snipers can lock down all the paths on the map and generally can't be flanked -Map design and game mechanics (chaining killstreaks, dudes respawning behind you) that encourage camping Would I like BF3 at all? I'd be getting it for PC but I figured I'd ask the PS3 thread because I made several comparisons to MAG. I don't really know what to make of it and my friends can't answer any of my questions they just keep saying "dude it's so awesome."

I'm just glad it is something that can be fixed like that. I was worried it was some sort of weird side effect of incorporating 3D or something that they wouldn't be able to do much about.

I really really enjoyed AC2 and AC:B and would normally be picking up AC:R right away, but there are so many drat games to play right now I think I'm going to hold out and wait for it to come down in price a little bit.

a shameful boehner posted:1. Don't be afraid of dying To add on to this, when you die you respawn at the last bonfire you camped at, and all the enemies respawn. If you're used to most games that have a checkpoint right outside a boss's area and the thought of having to make your way past all the enemies again sounds completely foreign, well you have been warned. But if you're willing to learn from your mistakes and figure it out, it is extremely rewarding and you'll end up wondering how you ever had trouble before.

Yeah, give the "run and gun more" strategy a spin in Uncharted1 and see if it helps make the game less frustrating. It seemed to be the general consensus around here, but don't drive yourself crazy - every time I tried it I just ended up dying even faster so it isn't a slam dunk. Uncharted2 and 3 are a billion times better though, so don't let the first game turn you off from the sequels.

Any opinions on armored core 5? I've never tried any of the AC games, and it seems like one of those niche titles that you're either going to love it or hate it, and I don't expect those types of games to ever get a fair shake from most major reviewers.

I really hope Prototype2 has a wider variety of enemies this time around, the first one was rather disappointing when you cause all this havoc but nothing bigger and badder would ever show up.

Policenaut posted:Capcom doesn't want to acknowledge Monster Hunter exists overseas. They've willingly told fans that they "still have Dragon's Dogma" at trade shows. Abandon all hope, ye English speaker who enter here. This pisses me off so much. How loving hard is it to translate, release the poo poo on PSN only so you don't have to worry about physical distribution, and then collect  ? I want my MH and I don't want to have to screw around with imports or fan translation patches or other nonsense

Prototype2 was a pretty fun romp, but not $60 fun. The game was way, way too loving easy. The most threatening enemy in that game is the camera. I wouldn't quite mind the lack of difficulty if you could escalate the action to the point where it was completely bonkers, but that just doesn't happen in prototype 2. You're so powerful that even if you hop into a military base and start loving around, you'll kill everything surprisingly fast and the alert goes away and the action stops. I don't ever remember that happening in the first game, poo poo would just keep coming.

blackguy32 posted:Sometimes I think Red Faction Armageddon gets a bad rap due to Guerrilla. Guerrilla was fun but I felt that game would have been much better if it had a smaller world. The driving in that game was boring as gently caress. But the multiplayer in Guerrilla was fun as hell. I wish people still played it. There used to be a guy from Volition who would post here, I remember he said once that Guerilla basically taxed console hardware as much as it could. If they tried to add any more buildings to the game than they had, the game would just completely break down and stop working correctly. It's a real shame, Guerilla is one of my favorite PS3 games and I'd love to see that kind of destructible building action on better hardware. The multiplayer was really awesome too, the destructible buildings made the match play differently as it went on and poo poo got blown up.

PorkFat posted:Just started playing Prototype 2. What are the must have powers and what are worthless? I remember devastators being pretty badass from the last game but I don't want to waste exp on dumb poo poo like I did in the first game. The most dangerous enemy in prototype 2 is the camera. I really wouldn't worry too much about screwing yourself over, it's MUCH easier than the first game, even on hard mode. Way too easy actually in my opinion. That being said I would skip the stealth oriented powers to begin with, there aren't that many virus detectors you have to worry about and even when you do they aren't that big of a deal. You really can't go wrong with the defensive and movement upgrades.

This channel has some big boss emblem speedrun stuff, he has one where he does it on a new game too. I don't really expect them to include a big boss trophy but just in case they do, there are a bunch of crazy tricks in there that might be handy.

I definitely agree with just skipping AC1 - youtube it or something if you really want, but I didn't and just hopped right into AC2 and didn't regret it. I will say though that while I really enjoyed AC2 and AC:B, I'm not sure I would have been able to play them back to back. I think I would have been burned out by the formula doing that. I tried to play revelations and just couldn't, I was too tired of the formula. I can't imagine trying to do an AC marathon of all 4 of the games back to back, that'd be crazy.

notZaar posted:Infamous is a fun game, just remember if you play it that it's a third person shooter, not a brawler. Until you learn to play it right it will feel annoying. I'd also add that it isn't the type of game where you control a mega powerful superhero running around destroying the poo poo out of everything effortlessly. Bullets hurt Cole a lot and you need to play carefully or you'll die a lot. Infamous is a lot of fun though and should definitely be played before the sequel.

MUFFlNS posted:What was so bad about Diablo 3 anyways? I never played it but saw some gameplay footage somewhere with the screen absolutely full of enemies and it looked hilariously chaotic and fun. What did people hate about it so much? A lot of the gripes people had about the game on launch have been fixed in the last couple of patches, including some of the ones already mentioned in this thread. It's not anywhere near as bad as the internet hyperbole will lead you to believe, and with Jay Wilson gone the game should be headed in a better direction in the future. By the time the console version comes out it should have a few more content patches as well.

Huh. I totally forgot MGS4 got a trophy patch. Did it do anything about the ridiculous per-chapter installs? If not is there any chance the version of MGS4 in that collection does? I'm assuming not, but you never know. And I'm probably going to buy that despite already owning all of it just to have it all in one place
