I'm starting up inFamous 2, and I was wondering 2 things.

1) Like the first game, is the best way to play it Good/Normal, then Bad/Hard?
2) How worth it is it to get the sniper shot and the stalker grenades DLC?

1) Other way around, play it as Hard/Normal then Good/Hard. Good gets some crazy powers this time around.

2) No idea

Yeah, up here in Canada we got screwed over on the reversible cover again. We never get anything like that up here...

What other games have reversible covers that Canada didn't get?

Is it on the bonus content part, not the game part? There are two different disc icons.

Ugh, going back to your last save every time you die in Ico is really annoying. It's not usually too bad since the save points aren't too far away from each other but there's something really frustrating about having to do the same puzzles over again. Also the controls are a bit loose so dying isn't always fair.

Anyways, liking it so far. Kind of reminds me of Limbo. Though I guess it should be that Limbo reminds me of Ico.

And I'm pretty sure the game is glitching some of them, as I'll find one near the icon on the map but the icon will stay.

There are multiple lizards in some places. You need to leave and come back to get the next one to spawn.

And I think the lizard hunting won't even be close to how frustrating the Hard time trials will be.

Roosterteeth did a pretty video guide for the Film Reels: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lp9nF52yGSA

I recommend using a video guide, because with just a map they're still tricky to find.

In Demon's Souls, the only viable playthrough was really to dodge everything. You HAD to be good at dodging, since there was no such thing as 100% blocking shields.

Wait what? Yes there was, there were just a lot more unblockable attacks in Demon's Souls. And on top of that, going above 50% equip weight was pointless since the difference between armors wasn't very big.

Bluray disc version of Back to the Future The Game has a platinum trophy. It's also a different trophy list from the PSN episodes.

That has to be the easiest game to get a platinum now.

Terminator Salvation is probably still easier, and takes less time too.

Great coffee table book and the paper quality is pretty sweet, but it doesn't quite cover all of the game. I flipped through mine for awhile only to realise it doesn't have an area on elemental weapons.

Maybe not, but it does show the stats of each weapon for each upgrade path.

Nolan North is in like, everything though. And he's actually really talented and has a really wide range, he's the Penguin in Arkham City and all of the Personality Spheres at the end of Portal 2

Is he some of the thugs in Arkham City too? I could've sworn I heard him as one of them.

Wow, just started UC3 after ordering it from Amazon a week ago and I realized they didn't send me a multiplayer code. I hope Amazon is nice enough to either give me another or give a $10 credit so I can buy it from PSN.

Well, I just got Skyrim for PS3 and then I read this discussion. Hopefully the patch fixes it before it becomes a problem for me.

Anyway, is there any place online with the Skyrim PS3(Or 360) manual scanned? Amazon sent me a copy with both manuals in french.

Yeah, Assassin's Creed 2 is way more of a jump in quality than Uncharted 2 is. Doesn't really matter which one you go for first. They're both not that long if you're not doing any collectibles.

It was taken out unfortunately. I think the reasoning was because they were pushing the PS3 to its limit as it was, and it was causing too many bugs.

I'm going to try to crush through Assassin's Creed 2 this weekend. I think I'm gonna pick up Batman Arkham Asylum next to cap off the best of 2009. Besides AC: Brotherhood what PS3 games were worth playing from 2010?

I really liked Darksiders. It's a post apocalyptic zelda game.

EDIT: Wait, are you asking just PS3 exclusives?

Lets see...Heavy Rain is pretty good, the God of War series is pretty high quality if you like those kind of games, uhhhhh....

There really wasn't much for PS3 exclusives in 2010. Browse This List if you want.

EDIT: Not 2010, but Rachet and Clank: A Crack in Time was late 2009 and it's awesome.

The Last Guardian will be the next Duke Nukem Forever(Though I guess Half-Life:Episode 3 already kind of has that spot).

Every dumb little complaint I have about SR3 is just that: dumb and little. Nothing game breaking, nothing particularly frustrating, just some enemies that can make some fights a chore.

The only problem I had was a mission glitched out for me at the end and I had to save and restart my PS3 to fix it. Luckily it was one of the funnest missions in the game(http://deckers.die} so playing through it again wasn't a big deal.
