It makes good time to take advantage of used game sales (Gamestop, Gamefly, etc.) to play some games that got lost in the mix of the great holiday rush we had last year and the bombardment of games earlier this year.

Last week I picked up :

Darksiders (Not as good as I was hoping)
Bioshock 2
White Knight Chronicles

Summer droughts aren't so bad when you look at all the games you didn't get around to earlier.

Motorstorm is so much fun!

1) Too Human : People talked about this game for years and was a letdown.
2) Haze : While the game itself was good (Much like Too Human) there was no way it could live up to the hype built around it.
3) Brutal Legend : This game was everywhere when and before it came out. There was advertisement galore and Jack Black was even doing talk show interviews for it. Now its in the bargain bin.
4) Alan Wake : Touted as the PS Exclusive killer by all 360 fanboys, this gam...

So far I've been really liking the PS+ service. Lots of free wallpapers, avatars, themes, and now demos. The discounted PSN games are also nice. If DC Universe is free with PS+ I'll buy it!

I'm American and agree with everything you said.

Americans feel too entitled and don't realize what its really like in the rest of the world. We are very lucky to live where we live and have what we have.

Its tough defending yourself as an American. Like you said, if a country needs help they look to us and we are expected to help. But when we do something many think we are abusing our power. Its a Catch 22.

Americans for t...

The US military kills plenty of innocent people in their missions.

Having Al Qaeda in video games should be no more offensive than having Marines/US Soldiers, Chinese, Russian, UN, etc. soldiers.

I love our military and thank them for the freedoms they give us. We do not honor them enough. But to think we are innocent and get all upset by this is silly.

Americans have no problems shooting people of all nationalities in military vide...

Looks like the original Cole and a better progression of the character. Can't wait for inFamous 2!

Can't come close in story, smooth - slick battle system, bosses, main character, and experience.

Many can try, but I doubt God of War 3 will be topped in the hack n slash department this gen.

I was so turned off by the new Cole that I felt like it would be hard for me to imagine he was the same character as the first game.

Cole is fine the way he is, leave him alone.

its that no matter what, writers/movies studios find a way to make video games movies absulutley horrible and pathetic. The writing is pathetic, the stories are ruined (Resident Evil could have been incredible had they basically following the plot of the 1st game exactley, etc.), and the set pieces are rediculous and cheesy looking.

The problem isn't Kim, its video game movies in general.

I was really impressed with AC2 and its improvements over AC.

Prince of Persia (PS3/360) was great and loved the cell shading . . . the most recent PoP was a letdown.

Rainbow 6 is good and I'm surprised there isn't something on the horizon.

Bottom line is that Ubisoft is a really good Multiplatform Dev. The games look great on both systems and most of their games are really fun.

Time will tell . . .

Every Nintendo fan in the world that has been playing the same franchises since the mid-80's are what?

Get over yourself man.

Even the way he looks in Advent Children is a little on the fem side. I know, understand, and respect Japanese Anime but Sephiroth maintained his badass-ness in Advent Children while Cloud looks like a Harajuku Girl !!!

FFVII remake would be amazing. Still arguably the greatest story ever told in one game.

Why even bring the 360 into this? Is just makes you look like you're trolling.

There are plenty of other things to say without sounding like a total fanboy.

P.S. My launch 60gb finally got the YLOD, so, neither system is untouchable. Now I have a refurbished 60gb (w/a 250gb Western Digital HDD) and a 250gb Slim.

Devil May Cry hasn't been worth anything since PS2 (DMC4 was an abortion) and yes, Dante is an alpha male caught in an anime fairy nightmare. I'don't find him "ROID-ish" at all.

Dante doesn't look like a juicer, he is a white haired anime-fairy.

The conversation isn't whether he is a good character or not its titled "Top 5 Characters who suffer from Roid Rage". Sorry if I insulted your boyfriend Dante, nevermind...

After I've been able to beat it and absorb the experience for a while I must say that FF13 was an excellent story and an emotional battle for its main characters.

I have to admit, the beginning of this game is horrible. Its like it caters to people who have never played FF games before. But once you get out of Cacoon and onto Grand Pulse this game is brilliant. The character developement, story, music, etc. all come together in the second half of the game and the end...

The Wii is an entity of its own. Its not last gen and its not current gen. I don't think its fair to compare its quality of games to that of 360/PS3 just as I don't factor in the Wii when comparing sales of 360/PS3.

The Wii is its own competitor, it has gone after and catered to a certain demographic while 360/PS3 have continued pushing the bar set by the previous generation of consoles.

To compare them doesn't make sense. Qualifying the Wi...

Great games are often ruined by trying to change and "improve" a sequel (Hi MW2, looking at you). Uncharted is a gem and if they start changing stuff just because, they may take away from what is one of the top franchises in video gaming.

Chris Redfield is pretty calm and calculated, no signs of any rage.

Sam Fisher isn't very muscular in the 'roid sense.

Dante is a white haired anime fairy.

Kratos and Batman are good examples. Kratos is just plain nuts . . . and amazing! Batman has such a violent persona that it would be believable that he's a juicer.

P.S. Watching the Poseidon clip reminds me how incredible and brilliant GOW3 was. That...
