Too bad Ico/SotC isn't a multiplayer game since we should both get it about the same time then. I had SotC and I liked it but I traded it as soon as I heard an HD collection was coming out :lol:[/QUOTE]
i did that when playing GoW, then sold my ps2 GoW 1&2 (before even beating pt 1). got an HDTV that SotC looked TERRIBLE on, so i couldn't play that (even with component).

i'd take you up on it, but it'll be a collectible item for me (one i'll keep), and it's 2 FULL games, and i wouldn't feel comfortable borrowing a game that long (i feel bad enough taking this long with these).

sucks it took so long, but i have Last Guardian pre ordered, and can't wait for it. these are so niche, i am actually surprised they chose these to remake (and are actual SONY quality remakes w/ upgraded textures, etc., and not like the konami trash that's just up-res'd). hope that trand continues cuz i've never beat either of these games. played alot of Ico, but i had a bangin' social life then :lol:, so it got put on the back-burner & eventually loaned to a friend that i let keep it (i think, lol).
 
my old friend i caught up with on facebook actually has a 256mb gfx card he's gonna give me free. said it will play most modern games on medium or low settings. that's more than i can play now, lol. had to promise him i'd get BF3 on pc if my pc would play it

he said it should look the same as ps3, as it's the exact same card the ps3 uses as a dedicated crd. if that's true, i'm definitely down. gotta get my wired k/m out, though. you are right, the wireless can barely keep up with my typing (misses all kinds of letters that i try to go back & fill in, lol), so there's no way it could keep up with gaming input.
 
evening bump

I'm running out of games to play on my PS2. I mean, games I haven't already played and that I want to play. Has that ever happened to anyone?
 
Bump, Added some of my books to my second post so I know what to look for :D

Don't worry about it twztid, I still wouldn't have gotten around to playing them yet since I've been doing stuff outdoors. I decided that since the weather's so nice right now I might as well get some use out of my work shed :lol:. That's awesome which card is it, I think the PS3 uses an older nVidia card?

You used a phone for looking at email skinkrawl? You must have good eyesight, I need to look at something around 20" or larger to read my email on ;)

Nope, whenever I get bored with a particular console I just switch to another game system or to my PC Alaisiagae :cool:
 
MGS:HD collection has looked very sub-par compared to the other HD remakes. if you must have, definitely wait for reviews, as it has been upres', but no texture upgrades or anything, so it looks like i'm still gonna play MGS3 on 3DS when it comes out (i need to play that before going any further in MGS4).

the Japanese version has MGS1, 2 & 3 (it's MGS3:Susustence in both versions, which has the camera control on the right thumbstick, and an online mode, but not sure if that will be active or not). the US version has MGS 2, 3 & Peacewalker. i thought that would be a perfect time to be able to play MGS3, and the psp game that i have no way to play, but the vids look bad (that's not a big deal, as once you get games on your own tv, it always looks better), AND many of the reviewers/people that work for game sites that i know personally have said 'wait for reviews' which is always a bad sign, and they have played & seen it in person.

the day it was listed on amazon, the jacked the price up to 49$ (all other HD remakes from sony have been 39$), then they jacked up the price to the silent hill HD collection up to 49$ (which had been listed for quite a bit for 39$. wish i'd have ordered it then). i'd say ESPECIALLY since you have the games, and the ability to play them, then it's not worth getting. if it comes out & ends up being that everyone saw pre-alpha builds (very unlikely) & gets high scores from everywhere, then i'd say it's worth looking into for you collection.

btw, have you beat all these games yet, or just own them? if you've never beaten all of them, then it might bend a little more to the 'buy' side. also the splinter cell HD collection was released in UK as downloadable on the same day the game came out. if that's the case with this, i'd love to just buy the game i want withought having to buy them all. i would get Peacewalker, the MGS3 3DS, then beat MGS4. after that, we will have to see what MGS: Raiden's 'cut & slice' adventure ends up being.

EDIT: i didn't want to press him anymore on the card, so that's all i know. once he said he give it free, i just left it there (cuz we were doing some major catching up, etc, since we hadn't talked in 5 or 6 years).

@Alaisiagae
never had that problem, either. actually i did before, and it was on the SNES, and solely because i couldn't talk my mom into buying me more games. i didn't mind replaying the crap out of the final fantasy or street fighter/mortal kombat games back then, so maybe i've never had that problem.

i DO get into a funk where nothing seems to 'hit the spot', if you know what i mean. it sucks cuz i will always have games to choose from, but will just not be in the 'mood' to play any of them. my game playing choices usually come from whatever 'gaming mood' im in (until my unemployment, where now it's based on trade in values, or sales on CAG, sadly. still enjoy the games, though).
 
Bump...

Thanks for the info twztid, I guess I'll just stick with the copies I have for now then ;)

I just received it today sdragon, I'll probably watch it this weekend and see if I remember any of the episodes :lol:
 
Walmarts around here never clearance anything. One of them has so many games they had to arrange them side by side in rows to fit them all in the cases.

[quote name='skinkrawl']Walmarts around here never clearance anything. One of them has so many games they had to arrange them side by side in rows to fit them all in the cases.[/QUOTE]
same with the THREE in my area. none clearance their games. $49.99 for eternal darkness on GCN? yep!

also, i hadn't heard about the slimmer one either. when did you hear it was coming? see, they used to bring the new iterations out at the higher price (since this dropped so early, the higher price is the $170), but the people who were patient could get slimmer, better color choice, better battery, and new features ('maybe' on that one), all for the cheaper price (compared to adopters in the 1st 4 months).
 
[quote name='sdragon']Are you joking about the slimmer 3DS? Yeah, I figured maybe a year or two down the line, but how soon are they talking now?[/QUOTE]
Nope, I was reading a translated interview with Iwata and they asked him about a 3ds slim. He just said that it's being worked on, I figure next year since Nintendo just dropped the price for the current 3DS model. I wouldn't worry too much about different colors until then either twztid ;)

[quote name='skinkrawl']Walmarts around here never clearance anything. One of them has so many games they had to arrange them side by side in rows to fit them all in the cases.[/QUOTE]

I was at a Walmart about an hour from me and I saw a whole metal rack with all sorts of clearance stuff. I was surprised since the Walmart usually only has one or two clearance games and the rest of the clearance stuff is a bunch of junk

Now you've got the idea krashhole :lol:
 
[quote name='sdragon']I forgot about Dead Island... But, Twisted Metal has been pushed back to 2012.[/QUOTE]

Awwww, I hadn't heard that the Twisted Metal release date had been pushed back :cry:
 
[quote name='OldSchool77']I saw that too but I'm only looking forward to the vita, especially now that they mentioned that it has Skype. I'm thinking if I get the 3G version I might be able to reduce my cell phone bill ;) I think I might have some DLC codes you might want, did you say that you were able to get Halo Reach twztid?[/QUOTE]
just came to my mom's mailbox today, so it may be a few days before i get it, and after beating I2, before getting into it. i have both map packs, and that's about it. what codes do you have, kind sir?

btw, they JUST introduced a new color 3DS, the very nice red one that comes september 12th ish. i'm happy with my black one, even with a soft silcon case on it, so i only see the black when it's opened (much rather have it protected, and this one doesn't scratch it when taking it on/off either).
 
spent 4$ on more infamous 2 in game stuff that was exclusive to the CE that's now on psn. a skin (which are awesome cuz they look really detailed in the cutscenes & all, meaning you can play the whole game as Kessler, or a Reaper, which is SWEET). also got the 4 powers, but already had one (the sniper blast). i can't believe those were actually unuseable unless you bought the CE....until now. already far enough into it where i shouldn't have, but i couldn't resist. this game is awesome, and i bet anything you will want to play it through on both sides. great job Sucker Punch!
 
[quote name='sdragon']"Dyno-mite" BUMP![/QUOTE]

I loved that show, I just recently remembered what it was called though:lol:

[quote name='5of9']I'm enjoying Crysis 2. It's a cross of Halo/bad company. Not perfect but a fun game.[/QUOTE]

I had the original Crysis for my PC but since I couldn't play except on the lowest settings it took me several years before I could enjoy it :lol: That's why I was so excited about the console version, that and no DRM ;)

I'll reply to everyone else's bumps in their threads :cool:
 
i think i might have the limited edition stuf (arbiter & falcon prop), but i don't have the lgendary edition stuff. i really wouldn't feel comfortable taking that, since you could easily sell it for 25-35$ depending on how quick you wanted to sell it. the gesture is much appreciated, as always though, man. thanks alot, for real.

yeah the I2 stuff can be bought on the psn store, so it will still be there. i had a code for the gold amp that gave me the caveman club, reaper skin, samurai sword & sly's cane all in one code (and they're $1 each on the psn store). there are bundles for stuff, but it worked out to the same since i already had some of the stuff. i still buy the bundles, though (when it's same price). i could see myself using those skins for a full playthrough, especially since they are so nice looking in game.
 
Thanks for all the bumps everybody :D I went to Blockbuster again today and they had some Tron posters on clearance for $0.49! Definitely never cared for abnormally large bobbing heads sdragon, makes me think of cheesy horror characters :lol:
 
[quote name='OldSchool77']Bump...

The code is from the limited edition, I had an extra recon helmet but I guess you already have it. I had two codes for I2 but I don't remember what it unlocked, I'll probably buy some once I get the game. I never seem to get very much for any DLC codes when I try to sell them so it's not really worth my time to list them :lol:[/QUOTE]
actually, i gave my recon code to Megiddo_CAG since HE was buying other stuff from me. everyone was wearing those things, and i thought it made my character look like he had a long neck, lol. i later find out it's 100.000 credits (ALOT) to buy w/o the attachment the code comes with, and you don't unlock the ability to even buy it until you 40 hours into the multiplayer, lol. that kinda made me want it. if you DON'T plan on selling it or anything, i'll take the recon helmet. the LE code could help even out a trade or get you an XBLA game. check here.

btw, Ivan gave his 360 to his sister. he no longer has a tv. that's what she told me when i was asking if he was a girl, lol.
 
also, redeem ps3 codes ASAP (like those infamous 2 ones). they have random expiration dates. some expire earlier than expiration date & some after. i think you did, but it just crossed my mind, so i thought i'd share before i go to bed. good night, CAG's.
