Everyone should get on Tribes, it's a good change of pace from all these small map type FPS games.

GGs to The Crotch for always holding down the fort.
 
Full credit to you for the perfect timing on the generator kill in that last game; I'd have been evaporated on the stand if their guns were still operational. I was not a happy soldier seeing their turrets and forcefields come back online while I was making my approach, but watching them all go down right as I landed on their flag? Beautiful. Just god damn beautiful. More beautiful than the cap itself. More beautiful than seeing a tank camped in our tower basement. More beautiful than finding a half-health bike sitting outside our base.
 
[quote name='The Crotch']I wasn't a fan of ME1's final sequence.

Technically, we could have beaten Saren if we never proved he was a traitor, never became a Spectre, and just hung out in the Presidium arguing with the council. We would have been right there. Right fucking there. If we'd done nothing.

Also, the "just a minute late" thing going on at the end there? Not so good if I've spent the last three hours looking for rare elements and one light metal.

Also also, Saren was a terrible boss. Not Reaper Baby terrible, but still. Back to the Future II hoverboard, yo.

I don't even remember the ending sequence for ME1...in fact, I don't remember much of the game at all.

It was just that memorable to me.

At least ME2's was so turrible that you can't forget it. :lol:
 
[quote name='j-cart']ME1 was an action RPG that had some much OP skills with a deep item and weapon customization. That is what I believe is missing in ME2. ME1 my Shep was so OP I had the mindset of "I don't need followers, but if you want to be a bullet sponge, tag along."

ME2 they removed everything RPG wise (in my opinion) and just made an action shooter where the good stuff only unlocks after you complete side missions and stuff. ME2 overall just felt like a Naruto filler episode, but it was just 25+ hours long.

ME2 is by no means a bad game, I just feel that it isn't THAT amazing game that the industry wants you to think it is.
[/QUOTE]

Only thing I liked better in ME1 than ME2 was the story. But I'm a huge shooter fan and only casually into RPGs. And when I play RPGs I tend to turn the difficulty down so I don't have to worry as much about strategy, managing stats and item upgrades very carefully etc. as I just play for the story, questing and exploration.

So ME2 gameplay wise ditched the things I liked least about ME1--crappy inventory system, more leveling details and strategy to deal with etc., and emphasized the questing and shooting gameplay which is what I liked most in the first game.

But the story was definitely a let down since it was more focused on building the team and the character arcs than the overarching main plot--which advanced little beyond the collectors and learning a tad more about the Reapers.

DMC collection looks like another HD collection I'd rather get on PS3 than 360, like MGS.

I know some of the HD collections aren't on PS3 and 360, so it's an easy decision for some of them, though this one and MGS collection seem like it's a better choice on PS3.

Pics look pretty good, though as we've seen with some of the past collections (Sly Cooper, ICO/SOTC), they tend to drop quickly after release.

Just like MGS Collection, I can't bring myself to play DMC 1-3 on 360, so it'll be a PS3 purchase, regardless of my preference for that platform. ^_^

Though maybe I should wait for a $30 or less deal, good point.

Is it possibly because they're all PS2 games? Or almost all of the HD Collections are a better deal on PS3 than 360 most of the time?

And for that matter, besides MGS, what HD Collections have come out on both platforms?

Silent Hill is coming, Zone of Enders is coming, maybe FFX, but I don't think there's really been other collections aside from MGS which already released. DMC is coming too, obviously... but most of the rest have been exclusive I think: Jak & Daxter, God of War, God of War Origins, Sly Cooper, Tomb Raider Trilogy.

What about the Prince of Persia and Splinter Cell Collections? Ok, looks like they're coming but not out yet.

I'd wait on them to drop to sub-$30 which shouldn't take too longer after release.

Going to 360 seems like it might be more work to migrate that type of game.

The only HD collections I know of that have come out on both platforms have been MGS and DMC. I think more of them are coming to both platforms, though Splinter Cell is passable and better on PC with the original games.

Would be better to go PC on that one and get the games individually on Steam.

Actually you still can't get Pandora Tomorrow on Steam, apparently the game's lighting is broken on modern hardware. All the other games in the series you can get in a package though (it was fairly cheap last steam sale when I bought it).

I dunno about SH or some of those others, but I definitely want Zone of Enders HD. fuck Yessss!!

I want ZoE HD, it's the only game series by kojima I enjoyed! He struck something magical with that series, it's pretty damned fun.
 
fuck the State of Illinois. These nignogs charge $3.60 toll if you're paying in cash to drive on their shitty ass roads. Get the fuck out of here.

If the roads were in perfect condition, I'd gladly pay. But these bumpy ass dilapidated roads? fuck nope.

It's like that in Kentucky, too. I fucking hate that shit.
 
You can get an Ipass and pay half price and not have to stop to pay, but you have to preload it with $50 or more to start. Just a big ass scam, get the money up front or rape you with double costs.
 
I want the SH collection and ZoE collections as the most I've played of any of them was a bit of SH2 -- I got to the stairway fight with Pyramid Head and kept dying. I always wrote ZoE off as "that other game by the MGS creator" sort of figuring it was like State of Emergency was to GTA3. Apparently I was wrong on that one so I need to check it out once it's released.
 
You can skip ZoE1, unless you're The Mana knight. ZoE2 is 10x better.

Only Silent Hill I finished was the 3rd one. One friend played the first one, we watched. Other friend played the second one, again we watched. I played the 3rd one, they watched. Nobody played the 4th one though. lol ^__^
 
Love Silent Hill. I don't really have a desire to play it in HD though. Same with DMC collection.

I do want to play the ZOE collection though since I've never played them before. And for some reason I really want the Jak and Daxter collection as well. I've only played about half of the first one before.

I'm getting Jak & Daxter for free, otherwise I'd skip it. I played the first game through and through on the PS2, but didn't like it enough to buy the sequels... they just looked so different and not in a good way. But for free, I'm on it.

And DMC games? Not like I'm getting DMC5 any time soon or Bayonetta 2 or even a new God of War. There's NG3, but I'd still trust DMC HD a bit more to scratch my action game itch. Plus I never got to fully experience DMC3SE and DMC was 1/2 games that made me finally cave in and buy a PS2 (MGS2 being the other). I should've waited for the price drop but it was like a year later, so whatever.

Never played 1,3,4 -- only homecoming.
Played 2 as a rental at night during college on break with a high school buddy. My god, it was horrifying. I had to bring it back the next day or so and just couldn't manage to deal with Captain Trapezoid.

As for ZoE -- if I buy the collection, I might as well play both, no?

[quote name='j-cart']Is Rage worth $15 on the PC? Did they finally fix those PO issues as well?[/QUOTE]

Wondering this myself -- I doubt the machine I'm on would run it well... but how likely is it to be $10 or less sooner than later? I could see grabbing it for $15 possibly if it's a fun game. Hank?
 
If you buy the ZOE collection, might as well play both. Just beware of whiny ass Leo and how much it feels like a beta for ZOE2.

RAGE is pretty good, friend of mine played it twice and had a blast. I've put in just over 3 hours and it's solid.
 
Damn, ME2 on insane is harder than I recall. Then again, maybe it's because I'm at the beginning of the game with no upgrades and idiots like jacob or zaeed to choose from.

If you have that burst-fire DLC sniper rifle, make sure you're having your squadmates use it at all times. They're unusually accurate with it, and it's the only gun they do full damage with. Another point in favour of Garrus, Thane, Zaeed, and Legion.
 
Goddamn there is alot of extra crap to do in Batman. It's a decent game to just burn time with collecting shit and beating people.

When I beasted through it on x360, I was a soldier.
Now I'm an Infiltrator on ps3... I'm wearing usually terminus or dragon age armor at this point for the bonuses... my specialty skill was group... uh.. mind control... from Samara's daughter.

I got to the tough spot in the quest to get Mordin where you first meet one of those blood pack rhinoceros motherfuckers... and he killed me. :(

Still not as hard as Dead Space 2 on hardcore. Oooooooh... fuck that game and it's damn foam finger gun that I want so bad.
 
what the hell did I just watch?
