As a heads up, the link to the PS3 Import thread leads to the old, archived one and not the current multi-purpose PS3/PSP/PS Vita one.

That thread will be getting an update of its own come the 15th.
Awesome, I couldn't find the tag it was under. Knew someone would help me out though.

Good start so far.

You gonna be linking to threads for PSN games in the OP too? I'll submit my semi-quiet Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls one for consideration.
Yup. Just gotta make covers for them to be linked to, and then I'll do so.

Still, cool thread Hansel. Shame about the thread title being changed
Well, there really isn't anywhere else to talk about PS2 games...? This is sort of the umbrella (or has been) for PS1 > PS3 talk. Unless people make game specific threads.

I think the new title is witty! The only reason I asked for suggestions was so that the two threads didn't have the same title and were confusing. I was just going to shorten it to PS3 Games Discussion Thread because PS3 seems to be the accepted title of the system now by Sony rather than PlayStation 3.

This doesn't work because the [timg]-tag is resizing the images, so you get to the full image if you click it (unless you click the border of the image).
Could you replace them with normal [img]-tags?

It sounds like a dumb thing, but I was even dissapointed with the documents (what few there were) that you got to read in RE5 compared to the older games too. I liked that they helped to create the backstory. Dead Space was good about this with the audio logs. Although it seemed Dead Space 2 either had fewer, or less interesting ones.

Itchy. Tasty.

Sorry for the double post, but this is just getting ridiculous now. Final Fantasy XIII-3? Really Square?

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/...asy-xiii-3.aspx
They made a whole novelization series I think (or were going to) about the story post FF13. FF13-2 is one such chapter, so I would imagine FF13-3 would be the next.

Maybe Sanders can illuminate, but I think Lightning is the most popular FF character in Japan (maybe since Cloud)?

Any gameplay improvements / new sphere grid / different items? Or is it just HD graphics? Have they redone the god drat laughing scene at least?
As far as I know (they didn't say much), it's just an HD spitpolish. But if you've never played the international version, maybe that's the one they'll release - which has new stuff in it.

So.. are they not rebooting it then (as was the popular belief/game designer's comments)? Another game in that same continuity?

Set in the snow is surely different.

I liked WKC. The gameplay system wasn't atrocious and I actually enjoyed comboing attacks together. I just think it had a great amount of expectation and being Level 5 failed to meet such lofty expectations. It doesn't help that the US got the game 2 years after it's release date, making it feel dated in the market.

$15 is not a ridiculous price for The Missing Link. I know we're used to DLC being half-assed and not worth the money, but this one is basically a 5-15 hour expansion of the original game.
If you play the game in super slo-mo you might get 15 hours out of it, otherwise I'm not seeing it. That's quite a gross overstatement.

It's about 3-6 (at most).

I really enjoyed GTAIV's storyline. I thought Niko was probably the most fully fleshed out protagonist in the entire franchise. The weakest part of the game I think came with the ancillary characters and middling gameplay. The missions didn't really feel all that fun, nor were they accompanied with a giant set piece that I think fits the cinematic quality of the game (save for the bank mission).

I feel that with the success of Red Dead Redemption that Rockstar could try their hand at a more seriously focused story this time with the appropriate social commentary quirks to break up the tension. Saints Row seems to be more suited for the goofy-over-the-top status quo.

Terminator Salvation is probably still easier, and takes less time too.
When I was actively playing games for trophies I actually found Terminator required a good deal of work. Playing on the hardest difficulty is definitely not made easier by the poor controls and gameplay design. I think I got to the third level before I gave up on it and trying to get easy trophies.

EA Sports is launching NFL Blitz again, but even that is toned down because of how the NFL wants its license to be handled.

For everybody who hated DMC Dante:

quote:

For its Devil May Cry game, Ninja Theory somewhat boldly reimagined the revered protagonist, Dante, changing his appearance and his backstory. And now, to assuage the surprisingly irritated Devil May Cry fanbase, Ninja Theory assured Dengeki PlayStation that this version of Dante is from a parallel continuity separate from that of the white-haired Dante-Prime.

It's okay! He's from another dimension.

I bought DMC4 at release (I don't know why, since I was never crazy about the series in general) and I liked it for the most part. I have to say it was more fun to play as Dante than Nero, especially coming off how good DMC3 was - so I disagreed with that design choice.

P.S. Make Chaos Legion 2.

What do you get for free? A level cap like WoW?
There's a thread in the MMO forum that touches upon this, but I think it is something like:

- 2 character slots
- No level cap
- Money/Cash/Gold cap
- Access to future DLC/expansions requires payment

I'm not sure if there's limited moves/powersets/costumes.
