[quote name='hankmecrankme']Shining Force 3 is so good. Well, the first scenario is, since that's all I've played. At least some fans are correcting Sega's mistakes. . .

fuck you, Sega. :bomb:[/quote]
Indeed.

But if Overkill is any indication, they seem to be trying their damndest to atone for their sins...
 
I'll be happy if we get it at all honestly.


I'm assuming Yakuza 2 probably didn't sell well enough to make Sega interested in bringing 3 over. I could be wrong though.
 
So far I'm more than halfway through in Crisis Core... I have to say I'm very impressed how well it is at being closely attached to the main FFVII story while not fucking up ever.

Also, I'm very surprised to say, but Aerith is very likeable... I still hate her in FFVII and Covenent Children... >_<

7 years for Aerith made her worse :lol:
 
[quote name='Lorddraco07']Any thoughts on the gi joe game being any good died when I found out EA is developing it.

Didn't get any gaming in today other than some of the ps:p demo. Studying for my stats midterm I have tomorrow which I'm not looking forward to (I hate this class).[/quote]
EA doesn't bother me so much (honestly, what developer would you actually expect to deliver a good movie game?), but EA Hasbro... the closest they've done is Nerf N-Strike.
 
[quote name='Rei no Otaku']It takes place right after the game ends. Best part about it is you get a good look at Quarian culture.

Cool, thanks for the info. I guess I'll hold off on buying it until I play through Mass Effect.

Isn't stats supposed to be an easy class? I know I have (less ambitious) friends that have taken all of those stats courses for their business classes and that they were kind of a joke.
 
Man, unlocking these last few videos in Sonic's UGC is going to be a pain for me. I need to score 10,000,000 points in Sonic spinball and 20,000 points in Columns... I suck at both games.
 
Yeah, most of the intro stats courses are pretty weak.

I remember I took a psych/stats class like last year or something, it it teetered between the condescendingly simple and the "what the fuck?" confusing at times.
 
[quote name='dallow']Why are people buying X-Blades? Did I miss something about the game?[/quote]
There is no reason to ask this question... Just look at the cover of the game.
 
[quote name='corrosivefrost']:rofl:

The japanese 360 cover is the risque one, isn't it? :whistle2:s[/quote]
She just shows more of her butt on the Japanese 360 cover.
 
[quote name='FloodsAreUponUS']unlock codes, fucking knew it.

I hate this generation of DLC.[/quote]
This. Aside from Rock Band, I totally agree.

Yeah, I totally agree with this. Isn't it enough to pay $60? They gotta nickle and dime us for everything we get. That's why I will not buy any of this kind of DLC garbage, and I urge others to do the same. But most aren't gonna listen to me, cause they wanna play Chun Li in a bikini or whatever. Total BS.
 
Dang, Fear 2 reviews aren't stellar. 7.0 from Gamespot and 8.1 from IGN.

I'll probably still grab, but will likely definitely wait to get from Goozex rather than shelling out money.
 
[quote name='dallow']Time to bake a pie myke.
Midway just filed for Chapter 11.[/QUOTE]

Time to buy the ingredients, but the oven stays off for now. Chapter 11 = bankruptcy protection. Basically, a "stay away" sign for people they owe money to while they reorganize and try to cover their ass. The last twitches of the deceased who is unaware that they are, in fact, already dead.

"We owe you $3 million. Will you accept a warehouse full of Stranglehold?"
 
I just realized DQ V is out next week. If it wasn't for the Square Tax, I'd be getting this one for sure. However, I think I'm gonna wait. Lately I haven't had much time for handhelds other than on the crapper.
 
Midway is paying people 20 bucks an hour to do some sorta random focus group gametesty thing here, I wonder whats gonna come of that.


I'll try to do it if I'm not working that day.

Reviews dont mean shit.

Fear2>Killzone 2.

Single player wise.
Its all about the shooting.

I dont have time for MP.

"Gametesy thing" happens.

"Midway is paying" does not.

Interestingly, it seems the console version is gimped again if IGN's review is any indication. Seems strange since they were trying to make the game for consoles this time... well, whatever. Pickin' up that PC version when I get a chance. Though SFIV comes first.

Same here. And I thought the demo was great. But it can wait awhile as I need to polish off The Shivering Isle and play Fable II before I pick up a new game anyway.

Maybe Goozex will have more offers of buying it new for 1600 points like they had available briefly yesterday.
 
I'll give it a go. I like action RPGs, and hate hard games (so it being easy won't bother me at all) and it's supposedly pretty short so I'll give it a whirl. Especially since everything else on my Goozex list is still on long wait and for me there's nothing coming out that's worth buying at full price (or spending any cash on period) anytime soon.

I never played the original.
