I just beat DR and didn't see any horrible flaws with the save system. I think people like to bitch about it becuase it's impossible to do everything in the game in a playthrough. That being said, I hope DR2 is somewhat more traditional.
 
[quote name='dallow']Wait. EDF isn't online?
Well no use convincing my friend to get it now. I'll play locally.[/QUOTE]

Nope, not online.
 
I'm going to start MGS4 again today. Question, do I start over, or just play from where I'm at (The FROGS just broke in after a meeting with meryll.)? It's been since like august since I've played.
 
[quote name='SL4IN']More than one save file would be nice. While I do have a few small complaints about the game, IMO I really enjoyed the game I think it's a really solid game for the 360. I think people condemn the game so much because they let themselves get overly hyped on the subject matter of the game, and then badger the game's flaws to the point that they convince themselves that they don't like and it's a "terrible" game because it wasn't exactly like they wished/hoped it would be.[/quote]
I'm not saying the game is terrible. I'm just saying the flaws took alot of the fun out of the game for me.
 
Finally got around to playing Banjo & Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts.. I know that Rare apparently dropped hints at new Killer Instinct and Battletoads games in there via tht computer that mentions they're in the "pipeline", but did anyone else notice that the Battletoads pause menu music plays during some loading screens?
 
Resident Evil 5 FAQ posted on Joystiq.. check one of the questions:

What else aren't you telling us?
Capcom has a huge list of things we're not allowed to talk about in this preview. Did you know that **** ********* is actually *****? Yeah, pretty surprising.
Click to expand...

My guess to that is
JILL VALENTINE is actually ALIVE
w00t!

Next gen KI and Battletoads......... oh man.

Cool tidbit, I didn't know that.
 
I just finished DQIV. It took me about 30 hours, give or take. It was a great game, but maybe a bit over hyped imho. Not to say that I didn't enjoy playing the game. I mean, I was never once bored with it. I'm going to start Chrono Trigger tonight. I'm very excited.

Of course she is.

Wasn't this known a while ago? I seem to recall someone found her name listed among character models in the game
Yeah some people hacked the demo and found what looks like a possible list of enemies in the game. You she Jill's name listed twice.
. Also, doing some looking around I saw there is a trophy called
Masters of Removing that you get by saving some special

I'm pretty sure this was a prank and not a serious "we're developing these things" nod. I remember seeing shit about it on joystiq and kotaku when N&B first dropped.
 
MGS4 is annoying. I went ahead and started from where I was (Meryll and the FROGS). That part was actually kind of hard and completely un fun. Now I'm out on the field trying to be stealthy which is nearly impossible. Of course, there is no consequence to running and gunning since the normal enemies are complete and total fuckING MORONS.

I wish I was playing fucking MGS3.
 
[quote name='zewone']Well, Dead Rising does suck, it did have potential.

Get rid of timed gameplay and let people play how they want to and I bet it'd be a lot more fun.[/QUOTE]
Agreed. DR was a huge disappointment for me.

Speaking of bad games, signed out X-Blades. Terrible game.

Shoulda signed out FEAR 2. :)
 
[quote name='whoknows']Sounds like you just suck at the game then ;)[/QUOTE]

Now that camp I just snuck through, that was serious fun. I wish the whole game let me play like that.

Rare really sucks about that. They know they have franchises that fans want to see but instead of dropping legit refrences to actually working on said franchises , they just tease fans by saying "we know you want this but you can't have it". Just like the years of avoiding the truth about the Stop N Swap thing. It was kinda funny at first , but just got really annoying when instead of giving answers they just give fans insulting jokes instead.

[quote name='jer7583']Having a job makes playing games tough.[/quote]

This 100%. My backlog has grown the most since I started my job 7 years ago. A deadly combination of money to buy more games and no/less time to play them. :(
 
[quote name='whoknows']Shoulda signed out FEAR 2. :)[/QUOTE]
I can't sign out a game that isn't out yet (it shipped today), and I already have that reserved so I'm buying it.

I suppose that makes sense. :p
 
Does anyone else feel like the cutscenes in the MGS games are rewards for for the gameplay? It seems like every time I put up with some bullshit segment of the game it gives me a kickass action cutscene or one that moves the story forward a lot.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']Which bullshit part was in MGS4? I kinda liked most of the game, and haven't had any real complaints about it.[/quote]


same here. people get so pissy over having too much story.
 
Remember, I've only played through act one of 4. I'm talking about the series as a whole.

Getting pissy over too much story in MGS4 is ridiculous. It's the best part of the game.
 
MGS4 is one of the best games ever.

I can think of one very short part of the game I may not have liked, but I loved everything else. Playing the game for the first time was magical.
 
MGS4 is no where near my fave in the series. Plus it's super easy.

Still prefer the original... even the original's graphics as well.

Oh God do I love limited graphics. it's a strange obsession of mine.

on that note Metal Gear Acid 2 is still the best metal gear game I've played. Superb story as well.
 
I liked the MGS series for stealth gameplay, so acts 1 and 2 were some of my favorite segments of the series and the rest was like a different game series altogether.
 
[quote name='whoknows']That would be crazy awesome.

I'd still want it on the PSP though. It's so perfect as a portable game.[/quote]


I have to agree... it works so well on that platform.

That system needs more card games IMHO.
