If it makes it to the PSN store as a download for $20 I might consider it.

DOUBLE CLICK HERE posted:Fear 3 is a technically generic and fairly lazy cover based FPS, all horror elements have have been watered down, and most of the environments are ugly. You do have to play the levels as the regular dude with guns with a splash of slo-mo, and only afterwards can you use the ghost which is a couple degrees more fun. Nah, for $20 I won't bother. I'll wait till the STEAM sale puts it out for $5.  I was hoping for some good spooky horror moments like the first one had.

ChetReckless posted:There's still quite a bit more -- I think you're on Chapter 2 of 6. Madness Returns was a pretty good game and a neat platformer, but each chapter was about an hour too long. Each level wrapped up by just continuing to hammer away on techniques and concepts you've already done a bunch of times by that point. Ok thanks, I'll soldier on. I love platformers, but the combat was getting to me. I do like a lot of the world detail, hopefully the other 4 chapters are interesting.

The Dark ID has a phenomenal LP thread about Chrono Cross thats archived somewhere. Highly reccomened if you want to be entertained and actually understand what the hell happenend in this game. And yes, the soundtrack is one of the best from the PS1 RPG era, if not the best. You can buy the import CD on Amazon for about $50. http://www.amazon.com/Chrono-Original-Soundtrack-Yasunori-Mitsuda/dp/B0009J8HB6/ Cartoon Man fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Sep 23, 2011 |

If you manage to catch all the special lizards: You earn enough "grip" strength to climb to the top of the main tower at the end of the game and see the special ending. Frankly, just google search the ending yourself, I didn't find it worth my while.

I recently got the Ico/SOTC game from amazon and come to find out that they put out a special 2 days later that nocks $20 off the price if you buy it with either the Uncharted, god of war, or resistance dual pack. I emailed amazon help about it, and they are going to hook me up if I buy the uncharted pack today.

I have a move controller but not the navigation add-on. Is it worth buying RE5 and the nav con or does it play better with a regular dualshock controller? I have RE4 on the wii and though it was the best version, and I'm curious if RE5 is a similar experience.

Since they are selling PS2 gems, I hope they put Sky Odyssey up for sale. It was (near?) launch game for the PS2 that was prety much pilotwings with airplanes that you usually flew threw canyons and such. Occasionally they would throw a really crazy mission at you like flying over a mountain that would require you to dump your fuel in order to make it, then you had to glide down the other side. Graphics were pretty horrible, but the controls and gameplay phenomenal. I loved beating the game and earning the flying saucer.

SamBishop posted:Sky Odyssey is the single most underrated game on the PS2, I'm sure of it. It ran like poo poo, looked like poo poo and had the most hilariously half-assed localization, but none of that mattered once you started flying. No flight game before or since has had that level of control, and I'd hesitate to even make the PilotWings comparison. Sky Odyssey was in a genre and class all its own. I would do just about anything for a sequel, but I'm pretty sure Cross, the subdivision of Sony that developed the game, is no more. If Cross is no more, does that mean Sony could still put it up for download?

Do you have an Xbox360? Are you only interested in exclusives? The Drake games are definately good and getting the upcoming system bundle sounds like a good idea. If you're crazy, you can also hold out for the Black Friday bundles that come out after Thanksgiving, but have fun camping out at 2 AM to get one. There are also about to be a million posts in here about how you should get Demon Souls / Dark Souls, but read about the game in the thread before purchasing, its not for everyone. http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3439963 What type of games do you like?

Shelf Adventure posted:Kotaku has started doing this awful gut check thing for reviews where they have 3 people say if you should buy a game based on a "gut check". One of them though hasn't even played the game. For the zelda one someone said 'no' on the gut check because he wasn't excited about the screen shots. What use is that? I can check screen shots and make up my mind about those, but Ineed to know how it plays. I accept that is covered by the other reviewers, but I don't see the point in wasting space on someone's opinion who has access to the same stuff I have when I can make up my mind. He must be the reason Zelda is at 95 on Metacritic instead of higher. drat cartoony graphics ruin everything.

Eurogamer is reporting as much, saying that Ueda's departure from the team has accentuated the ever-growing delay of the project's launch.

The Flying Milton posted:I started Final Fantasy 13 yesterday and I'm really confused by it. How can you spend so long making a game and not realize that it's just a hallway? When I bought my PS3 earlier this year, I got FF13 and Assasin's creed. I played FF13 for about an hour and got so terribly bored. I don't even think I made it to the end of the first hover train railway platform thingy. I started to play Assasin's Creed and never went back. To this date, that game is still at the bottom of my "to do" list and I don't know if I'll ever get there.

I know that some of us are disappointed in the PSN release of Chrono Trigger. If you have an IOS device, they ported the DS version of the game to it. This means instant load times and all the extra DS content including the extra ending and bonus dungeon.

Samurai Sanders posted:I don't know enough about this series to know, do you suppose this is a complete remake (changing the control scheme to whatever it is now) or just a graphics update? I edited in the Kotaku link above, it looks like its a built from scratch remake that uses levels from the first and second game. My guess is the controls are probably the same, but who knows.
