I've killed at least 100 of the gold dual katana skeleton (if I remember correctly he's the one who's supposed to have the drop, if I got the name wrong, you know who I'm talking about anyway!), while wielding the LSS, in pure black world tendency, and never got the pure stone. You might have to go on a forum and ask for someone to lend you a weapon that's already made... Or you could PM me!

Demon's Souls was definitely more time consuming than hard. B...

I don't understand why they always make online trophies so much more time consuming than single player trophies (not really harder, just more time consuming).

Usually, a single player gold trophy will be to beat the game on the hardest difficulty. No problem, anywhere between 10-20 hours.

Then, the "equivalent" multiplayer trophy will be: reach the highest level. No problem, only it'll easily take upwards of 50 hours. And then there's th...

If I met him, I'd shake his hand for making me realize how fast it was actually possible to go in Anulpha.

I recommend you look up a guide video on youtube, though. (Hey, it isn't cheating since Zico didn't figure out the best route by himself either.)

Edit: I won't even try elite campaign though--no way. I'm too bad at Chenghou!

and a makeover is the least important thing.

1. Improve the controls.
2. Tighten up the gameplay.
3. Make combat more interesting.
4.GET RID OF THE FUCKING ANIMUS STORYLINE. Seriously I don't give a fuck what's going on in the "future", just give me a good story set in one epoch.

Oh, 5. Make the game LESS NOOB-FRIENDLY. Seriously, it was painfully easy, which made it boring.

Edit: Oh, 6. Less collecti...

to accept that many gamers fit that description is actually the naive position.

I'd bet my gym membership that, compared to the average population, there is a lower percentage of gamers that are fat and, also, a higher percentage of gamers have an exercise routine.

That's what the author was thinking. Great idea, huh?

Yup, you really won me over with that intro. Not to mention there isn't an ounce of insight in there, it's...

The laws to protect consumers specifically state that you HAVE to sell your product at the lowest advertised price at the time the consumer purchased it (at least in Canada).

This one time, the bestbuy website wanted to have a sale on some laptops and cut 170$ off the price, but they made a mistake and listed them for that price, and they were forced to deliver to those consumers who were lucky enough to buy them at that time. Of course, they fixed the mistake as soon as poss...

99% of the "news" posted and approved is inflammatory blogs, posted by nobodies or sites fishing for hits, that has exactly 0% of content that is new or informative.

And the comments section is 2/3 flaming/trolling, 1/3 people trying to have an intelligent discussion but getting drowned out by all the people replying to the first comment to try and get their comment more exposure, even though it's totally unrelated to the original post.

Hey, N4G...

@dkgshiz

If your idea of figuring out MAG is running around with a silencer and knifing noobs, then you clearly haven't understood what I'm talking about. It's ok, you will, just give it 18 more hours!

When you know every little corner of every map, and when to properly time tactical strikes, and which targets to assign to your squad in which order, then you'll begin to understand--and I do mean begin. Then there's advanced strategies that...

I don't think next gen will boil down to which has the best hardware. It'll be a combination of hardware, and ease of programing--especially if Sony joins the fight extra late.

Look at past gens: PS2 crushed the original Xbox even though its hardware was nowhere near as powerful, mostly because the console was already so established (and remember, it wasn't particularly easy to program for either). In this gen, Sony is really using their name to pull through, and ...

This game just keeps on giving. PD had me at "Hello", but they keep offering more!

Aww man, I always want my friends to challenge my scores (because I enjoy the satisfaction of seeing that they can't come close!) but they never buy the same games as me. :( Not even DEATHSPANK! :,(

It'll take you at least 20 hours to learn the maps, skill tree, and tailor your loadout to your playstyle, and there are a lot of extremely experienced players in there who will pwn your face while you learn, but you know why it's not too late? Leaders. You will always have a squad leader, and once you get to the bigger game types you'll have Platoon leaders and OICs. Do what they tell you, and you'll learn fast!

Also, if you happen to be placed in a squad whe...

I agree that trying too hard to Westernize JRPGs doesn't help them one bit, but let's not forget about the other extreme: overly-Japanese RPGs like FFX-2.

Here's what I think: gameplay does not need to be Westernized one bit. Turn-based? Bring it on! I especially liked FFX's system because knowing the order of attacks made it more tactical. It definitely didn't make it easier, either.

But for the characters and story, westernizing (globali...

When I read "The studio is improving the potency of melee strikes, making them work with a single button press when you get close enough — see a flash or a prompt — to deliver a context-sensitive killing move" all I could think was "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, that's a HUGE step backwards." But then I read that if you miss the prompt you'll just do a weaker melee hit.

Dodged that bullet! Killzone 1 melee FTL, Killzone 2 melee FTW!

And, to Motorola, I don't listen to Rihanna much, but she's very good in that song, so I can't imagine that she sucks in her own songs (unless you weren't talking about singing, in which case I'll say most girls do that these days, so it isn't fair to single out Rihanna for it).
