Daaaaaammmmnnnn I wanna play Crysis Warhead so bad. Shit! Gotta stick wit da program. Can't play till Thursday. I'll just listen to Phil Collins in the mean time... I can feel it comin in the air tonite so long.
 
Looking forward to Kirby Super Star Ultra. Just ordered it with in store pick up from Best Buy. Local store tends to suck with getting games on the floor by the advertised day/time so easier to do that than track someone down and wait for them to find it in the back.
 
i dont have my ps2 on me and cant play it on my monitor anyway
but damn after lookin up what the yakuza gameplay is about i wanna play it too
 
I'm very interested in Rhapsody. I dunno if I'm gonna get that or pre-order NBA 2K9 instead. Prolly the latter...
 
They made a good point on the 1up show about how Yakuza is really the more modern evolution of the JRPG. Most JRPGs are so childish and cliche, it's really refreshing to see one with more mature themes, that does have some genre conventions (people to talk to, sidequests, random battles) but none of them feel forced. Yakuza is a groundbreaking game for that reason. Explains why it's so popular in japan.

WOO! Chun Li! I heart her and her massive legs!

I hope they use ST Chun Li style not Alpha Chun Li style.

MarkMan just got me PUMPED.
 
Oh wait, MM...does that mean you favor the 360 version?

I'll prolly still end up w/PS3, 'cause of my sticks, though...

Edit: nm. Ohhhh nooo...collectible covers on the regular edition?!? What does the CE cover look like? 8)
 
It'll be a good holiday for fan translations this year. You've got one more obstacle for the Mother 3 translation (along with testing), Persona 2: Innocent Sin is set for release on 10/15, and the Policenauts translation was recently revived.
 
[quote name='MarkMan']Ryu cover is PAL version of the game :x[/quote]

Aw dammit, guess I'll have to settle for the Chun Li cover then.
 
Chun Li's definitely got dem child-burring hips.

Played sum more ToV last night. I'm not close to done yet, but I have to say, it's the most enjoyable RPG I've played this year so far...
 
Is it just me or does the Ryu cover look bigger? Also, I don't think it's a very good cover.

Trying to finish off Mega Man 9. So awesome. Right up there with Castle Crashers for my DL of the Year.
 
My store pick up for Kirby is ready. Going to take a break (working at home today) and run out and pick that up and mail out Halo 3 (goozex). Nice having a post office and best buy all within 4 blocks!
 
Any of you guys have any luck grabbing a LBP beta code? The poor website was slammed so hard I got nothing but a page load error for a good 6 minutes.

Lucky bastard. Now I'm going to keep trying. I want one so badly!
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']Is there a, like, price limit on Wal-mart returns w/out a receipt?

No fraud here mods, this is 2 legit 2 quit
Seriously
[/QUOTE]

Not that I'm aware of. Just depends on the customer service rep/manager you deal with. Though I'm sure the higher the price the more likely you are to encounter resistance.

I had no problem swapping out Two Worlds (from the Fry's come 360 bundle deal) for Halo 3 at Wal-mart last year. Fraudulent? Yes. Great deal for me? Yep. Extra joy from sticking it to Wal-mart (where I never shop anymore)? Abso-fucking-lutely! :D
 
the weekly ads in Deals forum for next week got updated with Beast Buy...

free movie DVD with purchase of Silent Hill V...

um.. I think Id rather get the keychain...

Sweet, downloading the beta as we speak. About god damned time I get into a beta, this makes up for Sony fucking me over with the SOCOM beta.

Oh sure rub it in :lol:

At least I'll enjoy LBP that much more when it comes out!

If it makes you feel any better, I tried for about an hour to get the key. So you gotta keep trying. I kept refreshing several windows until one went through.

Haha well it's not really a big deal. You'd better post your thoughts on how good it is.

I can think of several people who would murder me just for mentioning I got the beta.
 
Wow.. I've only beaten Magma Man and Splash Woman. That game is hard as balls. But in a really fun way.

I sold my Ninja Gaiden Black disc and bought it on Xbox Originals! ::whee::
 
[quote name='DarthPuma']Little Big planet beta? fuckING WHERE?!


Seriously though, any one have an edge car they wanna let me use so I can order my games?[/quote]

Do you just need a code on the back?
 
[quote name='distgfx']Ooooh, even better.[/QUOTE]

He looks like some sort of constipated muppet. God I hate what they've done to the graphics for SF:EX2 (aka SF4).

Beta codes are dead, darth.
 
[quote name='JMEPO']Do you just need a code on the back?[/quote]

Yeah. I just want to knock another buck or two off my order so I can justify one day shipping.
 
I want LBP, but I rather not play the beta in ways. I don't want to play it until the actual game is out. That's how I kind of feel about most games (I don't want to play during a beta when online is a mess and everything I do normally doesn't count towards anything). I use to try to get into betas, but now it doesn't mean that much.

Getting practice in using the editor and potentially winning level design contests ruins the game how?

Same thing with anything competitive online -- I'm willing to bet the people who were in the CoD4 MP beta had an edge on all the day 1 players. Same with anything where the most they'll end up doing between now and release is tweaking some of the code/server settings.

Besides, if the game releases Oct. 21, It's probably already gone gold or will in the next week, thus changes to the shipped code and what you play should be minimal.

Alright I'll shoot you a PM in a sec with my code. Is it the code that says account number? Or the one beneath the bar code?

I actually have no clue. I need to get another one next time I'm at a gamestop. Does game informer still suck?

By request, the beta's basically a gigantic tutorial that tells you the ins and outs. There's 3 levels to play on, online play, creation mode, customizations, etc. Basically it gives you a little taste of everything that will be available in the full game. There's already some user created levels up to play on but, unsurprisingly, they're all crap thus far. Hope they gave it some more polish though because there was a lot of clipping and getting stuck in or under objects in just the first level. It was fun to play ... for the first level. I already lost interest and will probably pass on it until it's cheaper. If it had a lot more polish, I'd probably of been more into it but getting stuck in or under objects several times a level was pretty annoying.
 
I've been playing more Disgaea 3. I got the chapter 6 yesterday afternoon but haven't even started it. I reincarnated a few characters as well as created some new ones, so I have been spending a good deal of time power grinding with them so they catch up with my other characters. Right now I'm TRYING to pass the bill to make a bigger classroom. I have no idea why they made it this hard....
