I really got into Dark Sector, but Fracture was just frustrating. It just didn't control well whereas Dark Sector made shooting (or throwing) fun. It's a shame, the terrain manipulation of Fracture sounded cool, but after the first level I was disappointed.
Dark Sector was a nice little surprise. I thought horrible after seeing stacks of the games at Fry's, but it turned out pretty well. Not much story to it, but it plays really well. The glaive was quite rewarding.
You and I did the same thing. I have played too many computer games in the past couple years, but seeing that Portal 2 trailer in the Sony conference made me crave some cake.
Well, it's a good thing that I finally bought the game and started it yesterday. Given that the original came out fairly early in the generation, I expect to see many improvements. First one is really fun, can't wait to see what they do with the second.
Wow never knew that. I forget that not every game requires Live to play online. Thanks for the information.
I really hope this game achieves Mature rating, not because of blood, violence, etc. but for actually having a mature storyline. FFXIII was the traditional final fantasy to "satisfy" fans, but FFvXIII appears to be more an experiment for the FF franchise. I have been waiting for this game since the teaser trailer and I have no doubt Nomura will deliver.
Sidenote: The picture where Noctis is fighting is on the street West Insomnia. Interesting street name.
I dislike DLC like this, because it fragments the game. For normal people just downloading it is fine whenever they need it, but the collector in me knows that once ps3 is long gone part of the game will be lost without it. The disc is more or less permanent while DLC lasts only as long as its offered.
I just don't understand people who played FFXI or any MMO on the Xbox because you had to pay so much to play the games.
Pay for internet. Pay for Live. Pay for FFXI.
If it were exclusive to the Xbox it would be a little more understandable, but I would have just bought it for the PC to bypass the middle payment.
Wow the book that comes with the game is 352 pages! This game just exudes quality.
Studio Ghibli + Level 5 = Lots of Win
They actually did make a Nausicaä: Valley of the Wind game. It didn't turn out too well and left a sour taste in Miyazaki's mouth when it comes to games. There was an article on this just yesterday. Hopefully this game will turn out much better, so we can see future games come out of this new partnership between Studio Ghibli and Level 5.
I agree there is no need to rush it, but I would like to play it this generation...... at least TGS is coming up. I expect a storm of information after many years of so little.
I read the article and was thinking that too. Not only are you killing people, but if you also read some of the back story of the Killzone universe you begin to feel a little disgusted by the ISA.
Studio Ghibli + Level 5 = Lots of Win
I had forgotten about this game until the other day when I was startled by PS3 version announcement. I wounder if they are going to take advantage of the move considering there is a lot wand movement. Either way I look forward to hearing more about this at the TGS.
I understand what you mean by archiving. Anything that I get into be it games, books, or even origami, I have the urge to have everything within my grasp for easy access.
It's about time we got some information. I am really looking forward to this years Tokyo Game Show now that FFXIII is out of the way.
Greatest Hits boxes... I remember finding a used original We Love Katamari at a GameStop awhile back. I took it to the register to only realize something was off with the disc itself. It was a stupid Greatest Hits version. Pissed me off.
I don't get why all the companies make their version of the best sellers games so ugly. Platinum Hits, Greatest Hits, Player's Choice, yada yada, they all look ugly and cover up the art on the front.
People don't necessarily need to buy the game when it comes out a full price. I have only bought a couple of games at full price in past 10 years or so. I have been one to wait till the games get marked down to about half off before I even start considering to buy them. I get to play more games that way without emptying my wallet for every new game.
Lol, "Battery consumption on the game will be high." In his hands I will take that as a positive.
Hopefully there will be more than a trickle of information now that FFXIII has been completed. Also more information on Ni no Kuni or The Another World will be much appreciated. Never expected it to be on DS and PS3. A strange combination, but I am eager to see what Studio Ghibli and Level 5 cook up.
I owned the PS3 version and loved the glaive control. I would say I spent most of the game using that rather than the guns. It was just fun to use.
