I have to confess that benchmark is pretty bloody awesome. I am still not sold on this game though it seems like it could get quite repetitive very quickly (like the first one). I think I will hold off till it is on sale on steam.

bjornbear5896d ago

thats new....=P this demo is HUGE, still something doesn't make me want to buy it =( that and the fact that im broke...

Darkfocus5896d ago

they updated the demo because it was hackable so that there was no timer, no boundaries, and you could use all the weapons and vehicles from the full game.

Oldsnake0075896d ago

WTF is this sh*t ? It also comes out on the PS3.

peeps5896d ago

yeh but the update is just for pc i'm guessing...

unless u wanna benchmark ur ps3? lol

Charmers5896d ago

Yeah a benchmark is a bit pointless on a console that has a set performance range. A benchmark on the PC is actually a useful device for PC gamers to use to tweak the settings. Now since there are no settings to tweak on the console you don't need a benchmark do you.

The Dude5896d ago

WTF idiots like you never cease to amaze me. The update has nothing to do with consoles.

Oldsnake0075896d ago

lol you guys are idiots

I have it pre-ordered for PS3!

ZeroBlitz5896d ago (Edited 5896d ago )

The demo crashed my console the third time I tried it (after the grapple glitched and shot backwards through my face). I suppose it fixes that?

Edit: Nevermind, I assume it's a PC-only update then?

The Worst Guns in Video Games

These are the worst guns in video games. Unlike weapons that are useful and practical, these only take up space in your inventory.

Worst Games to 100% Complete

Being a completionist can be fun, but some games are more like chores than fun. Here are the worst games to 100% complete.

The Yakuza Games

Haha, yeah, currently over 100 hours into Yakuza 0. Considering going for 100% and well on the way but may not get there. Cat Fights are a real chore.

blackblades1226d ago

I use to be a trophy hunter, was getting around 20 to 30 platinums a year. Had a saying of Play-Beat-Platinum, play and enjoy the game like there wasn't no trophies, beat it and at least get 50% then look at them and see if I'll platinum and platinum it. I think death star was a pain, the servers was ending so i had to rush and play that for awhile none stop. NGs2 was hard because of that online trophy but easy if you had the partner that can do it for you while you grab the enemy attention. Grinding idk, death was grinding last one I had to grind for platinum literally 1 trophy needed was dungeon travler or something vita gave up on it. After that I stop trophy hunting get like a 1 platinum a year or 0.

Knushwood Butt1226d ago

Yeah, if I enjoy a game I usually go for the platinum unless there are some unreasonable trophies in there.

For Yakuza 0 I've invested too much time in it to give up just yet and most of the content is good fun, apart from Cat Fighting which is broken and dull after a couple of fights.

DarXyde1226d ago

Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 was literally the last platinum I got on PS3. After that, I went into PS4 kinda deflated and getting them where it felt appropriate.

I genuinely HATED that platinum, but it was a personal challenge I took upon myself. It was a lot of "get 1,000 kills with [insert weapon]" and it got to be a bit tedious. Master Ninja really pissed me off, but the WORST which you alluded to was that bloody Gold trophy for missions that you needed to do online because the AI was useless and got wrecked in moments. I jumped on the game a bit late so I struggled with finding a partner for at least 1.5 months. After that, I burned out hard with trophy hunting. I still came back for games I really enjoyed (Bloodborne, Dark Souls III, Nier: Automata, and a few others that escape me) and low hanging fruit that was just a bit time consuming and I didn't want to buy new games at the time (Final Fantasy XV). Total, it becomes clear where I taper off since I've only plat'ed 33 games since there inception of trophies which really isn't much.

Screw Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 lol. That game was pure nightmare fuel.

blackblades1226d ago

I say never force getting a platinum, its not worth the trouble definitely if it costing you to waste time on chore like grind. Those brainless design trophies.

hotnickles1226d ago

Dead rising was the worst one I’ve ever tried. I haven’t tried it with the modern console “rest mode” but the 360 didn’t have that.

Duke191226d ago (Edited 1226d ago )

Was GTa4 the on where you had to collect a shit ton of pigeons around the map and there was no help in finding them?

roadkillers1225d ago

Yep. I’d say GTASA was more difficult since there were so many collectibles

Profchaos1225d ago

The saving grace was that there was only on average 50 collectables with the two exceptions being graffiti and oysters from memory horseshoes and photos were capped at 50 each.

But for me it was all the other grind that was way more painful in SA like the car export lists which even with guides took way longer than collecting stuff

iivGHOST1225d ago

There was a guide book that came out with the game that had all the pigeons in it. I actually still have it

Chocoburger1226d ago

One of the more recent games I got a Platinum in was Killzone: Mercenary for Vita. What a crap game, that requires so much terrible grinding.

Awful game, awful experience.

outsider16241225d ago

Oh man..wish i could get a vita. I've been trying to get a preowned too(in my country) but no luck.

CantThinkOfAUsername1226d ago

I can vouch for Just Cause 2. It was the reason I quit achievement hunting. 86 hours in, the game bugged on me during one of the last side quests (it failed no matter what I did) and my save file got corrupted. Wiped it off my drive and never looked back.

SonyStyled1225d ago

I downloaded the ‘complete edition’ or whatever it was called for $2 about 7yrs ago in hopes of trophy hunting it for a platinum. It always sounded fun and I would like to commit time to it but not enough for a platinum trophy
