Yeah, I rented this about two years ago for my ps2. I don't remember much of it because I was pretty drunk when I played it. but it was a pretty good game. I really liked the setting, and I also generally like alot of things about the mafia. I still prefer The Godfather game over this though.

Unless it was 1942 - the plane took off from an aircraft carrier in that one - but it was more of an upwards scrolling game.

I played a bit of Mario Galaxy while visiting the rents' and it was a blast. When SSBM comes out I'm buying a Wii and then a while after that (provided a couple more exclusives hit) a PS3.

I played the Friend or Foe demo and it was pretty fun but almost felt like it should have been an XBox Live Arcade or PSN game. Didn't feel like it was worth a $60.00 purchase.

I liked the tomb raider controls. That was pretty easy and looked good. And the auto aim worked well. It doesn't in Uncharted even though there's about 80% more enemies than in tomb raider. It doesn't even have a auto aim function, which i find weird and annoying.

But so far, the best control system i've seen are in the Prince of persia/Assasins creed games. They're pretty much perfect when it comes to movements.

I've been playing...resistance: f.o.m. First time playthrough. Pretty good game. Intense. Reminds me of the kind've fps goodness that HL had goin' on.
Other than that, checking out some other PSN stuff, demos and hd games.

Oh, and I've reconsidered UNCHARTED. I made it through the demo, it's just that...my approach in games is normally a bit different...I think it's good enough to check out.

So far, really good and extremely intense. Although, as many of you will not agree, I still found Halo 3 to be more fun. It had humor and as an offline multiplayer, the co-op is better.

November 22, 2005 = x360
vs
November 17, 2006. = ps3

There are more and better games on the 360. Most of the PS3's games are non-exclusive.

That there is probably because there's about a year difference between the two, of course the 360 will have more games in the library, no?
There's been some good exclusives, and there's definately more on the way...besides, you can't really base the quality of a system on the basis of "exclusives" can you? Sure they're a sweet bonus, but I believe a system should speak for itself in quality, and the fact that it maintains direct competition with the other current gen consoles with the same games, a system that can make you say "hey, I'd rather play that on my ps3/x360/wii"...(btw, in terms of exclusives...uncharted and RESISTANCE, both some crazy good titles there, some of the best games I've played in years not to mention FOLKLORE which looks to put a new spin on the rpg...so the big S has what it takes to pump 'em out, nobody can argue this)
IMHO, I think the wii is the one that stands out in terms of originality thus far out of the three.

I personally agree that x360 has a better library thus far, but like I said ps3 has far more to come so right now it's largely about numbers and ratio...look at any ps system and you find yourself a damn good library of games, the 3 is set to follow that tradition.

Unfortuanatly until they start developing on the PS3 AND 360 instead of porting the games to the PS3 after they're done with the 360 version you'll find ports like PS3's Madden 08' and Orange Box. Bleh. Anyway, Silent Hill 5 will be on the 360 as well. This site http://silenthill5.net/ and this image confirm it.

Freak
02-24-2008, 09:40 PM
It's got some what of a story mode.You choose a level and in that level there five or six stages and each stage has different goals.One you have to run through and make it to the exit while scoring as many points as you can by shooting your enimes.Another has you stand in a small area and try to survive an onslaught until the time runs out.


The big thing about it is that you can't take your time running around and searching.Casue getting kills in rapid sucession help keep your combo up and helps you get a bigger score and thats the main objective of the game, to get the highest score possible.

I haven't checked out the multi-player yet but soon as i do i'll let you know how it is.

I actually like the ring idea too. I didn't know it had a horror theme in the earlier one nor did I know there is a third one.

I'm now on the last level of the first disc (i think) The living fortress and thats actually kinda creepy. When I was in the underground tunnels in Russia it was very creepy, the only thing that stopped me from geting creeped out was the fact that it was random battles it had a very eerie survival horror look to it.

You know half of those kids probably wish they were black. Anyway, Halo 3 (and I pretty much any online game now, it's just that some are worse than others) is filled with unintelligent people who make nothing but poorly thought out insults every three seconds. "Do you smell that? I think we're playing niggers!" "Man, that dude's a faggot noob, he sucks." "America sucks, everybody hates you."

Yeah, its easier to get a good team that isn't spouting insults constantly if you're in a ranked match. They all get serious during those, if not for the fact that im not too good and I'd rather play a game where I stand a chance then I would play ranked matches constantly. Oh yeah, just a tip on that, just incase you aren't sure who got a down in a ranked match, and you think its you, make sure that you check the scoreboard, because otherwise they bug out on you and pblame you for kill stealing, and they are way too serious about that.

It's not like I'm against x360...didn't much like the first xbox though...
It's a good system, my point is that you're getting charged when you needn't - nothing fanboy about it, it's common sense.

Well you're paying for premium servers though. If I put my brothers PS3 against my 360 on CoD4 and look for matches on both I consistently get a faster connected game with less lag. Could just be me but I really feel Live is worth paying for. THAT SAID, I was just giving you crap. :)

AND


This Windows Games BS with paying for live to play online with pc games is ridiculous. MS is fucking nuts if they think that will really fly.

...Hm...see, those are actually activision servers, not really in any way representative of either systems servers, they're a third party and host all their own shit, as far as I know...IMHO, cod4 ALWAYS has servers that aren't the best...that said, I personally get no lag whatsoever on the PSN, if there's configuration/connection/wireless issues you might as many do, but when you've got it all done right, it's generally all good.

...Just waiting for the may-onwards rush of games for the ps3 right now...so they can finally have enough games, my major problem with ps3 right now.

It's hard to get really into stuff after Halo. I thought Unreal II would be decent, but even though it's similar, it's not the same.

I think unreal 2 (the awakening, yes?) was waaay better than the first Halo, considering they more or less came out around the same time.
It STARTS pretty slow IMHO, but I think it kicks off and turns into a great game, among my favourite "vs aliens FPS" type games.
Storyline not much better on one game than the other, but the vehicles and weapons (again, just my opinion), the aliens, and the variety of different indoor and exotic outdoor scenes, planets, and varied mission types were all better...

That said, I havent played the halo sequels, so I don't know how to rate them, but I have to say that while it was a fairly solid game, I found halo to be just a tad over-rated and lacking atmosphere - something the awakening had in spades.

However, if you're into games LIKE this...even if you're not any kind of trek fan, and it IS stepping back a little, a game called "ST: Elite Force 2" was all kinds of excellent.

Dunno what to play really...still on shadow of the collossus ATM.

what i really liked about Halo - is that it felt more like a movie ..
i liked the look of it, the smooth lines, the music, and the many checkpoints.

i don't look to challenge myself with a game that much - i always play on easy level - i j7ust like to walk through and feel the story.

unreal 2 doesnt look anywhere near as good as halo as far as the smoothness of the visuals go - it looked kind of rough in comparrison .. not as well lit. it reminded me of the older games like Hexen.

the play isnt bad - i didnt dislike it - i just didnt get the same feeling of involvement as i did with Halo.

but my personality comes into play here a lot too - once i find something that clicks with me - most other things pale in comparrison .. It's not like i wont try new things - i just end up getting disappointed.

(like TV for example .. once i saw Dexter - it made everything else look like crap to me ... i cant even watch Heros now ... i dont enjoy it now because the bar has been raised.

not nessessarily a good thing - but it's just the way it works for me ..

Halo 3, I'm finding that with most games now I stray from the multiplayer and stick to single player experiences. The stories that are controlled or manipulated in some way by the user are what got me into gaming and it seems to be what I'm going back to.

The 360 "Arcade" version simply replaced the core.

"Microsoft officially announced a new version the Xbox 360 called the Xbox 360 Arcade. It's like the Core, except now it comes bundled with five arcade style games (Pac-Man, Boom Boom Rocket, Feeding Frenzy, Luxor 2, and Uno), a wireless controller, has an HDMI port, and a includes a 256MB memory card for $280. (But like the Core, there's still no hard drive.)

Go through electronics boutique (EB games), they have plenty cheap "remanufactured" units, Sony has worked on them, and the one year instore warranty on those comes directly from Sony too.

I'm still on the same...got a pc that might play stuff from about a year ago just fine, a Dreamcast (still my favourite console ever), PSP, PS2, PS3.

i cannot justify getting a 360 .. or a playstation 3 for that matter.
A good selling point aside from the games factor, in terms of the PS3 anyhows, is that it's pretty much the cheapest BluRay player you can buy, from a company that has top of the range laser devices...although I'm sure with the death of HD, the 360 will shortly be selling external br player peripherals too...too bad you're not local, I could get you one for a bit under 2/3 the standard price.

Despare

Yeah Phalanx, MS has been in negotiations to sell a blu-ray adapter (although I won't use it or any blu-ray player for a loooooong time). When you think about it though, the cost will likely be at least $200 + right? Not only that but it's an adapter while the PS3's is built into one slick little console. While you can debate which system is better just for games, if somebody's looking for a system to play blu-ray + games I don't think they'll have a better option than the PS3.

That's the game I'm currently playing...where are you up to? I think I'm up to #6.
Interesting title, borrowed from a friend - it's really like nothing I've played before, as close as I can come to describing it, is, it's a game full of zelda boss-esque fights against giant foes...? Great looking game, had an engine made specifically for it...
Also something to do with ICO, another game on my "to play" list.
Always into games that are unique...like fahrenheit (indigo prophecy) which I loved for its originality despite a few flaws.

i was thinking about a used PS2 because i see the games used for dirt cheap everywhere (as i do the used x-box games)
There hasn't been a better time to buy a ps2, I don't think...there's an absolutely MASSIVE library of games (and games to come for the next year and a half - two years) most of which you're garaunteed not to have played before. Between the dirt cheap seconds/trade-ins, and the quickly falling in price new titles, the cheapness of the machine itself...etc, it's a pretty good buy right now IMHO.

Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories.
The ps2 port, or the original for PSP? Definately the better of the two spin-offs either way, but I think the PS2 controls it a little better, and of course, unless you have a slim and lite with component cables, the big screen always wins out.
