Its hard on me to play the multiple games right now so I've been focusing on Silent Hill Downpour for PS3. Just last night I got the trophy for doing all side missions.

i haven't played that one yet. how is it? ive heard reviews on all ends, both good and bad.

As with most of SH games, some of the puzzles are outright outlandish on how to solve it.

how outlandish are we talking? cause the puzzles are why i love those games so much. are we talking crazy harder than the other games cause i would play with the puzzle difficult all the way up and i think the hardest puzzle took me about 10-20 min to figure out. ive played them so much that i got it down to an art form by now. lol i could use some really hard ones.

 

every thing else sounds pretty good. the monsters don't bother me much, there never was a lot of variety in the others. they are short games. i kinda don't like though that the ambiance is redundant. but i most likely will be picking this up. i found really only 2-4 are good and all the spin-offs and stuff were pretty awful.

Its not too outlandish if you pay attention and I think that was my situation as i research right now, it seems like I missed out on something. I got it by pressing random combinations but that took a while. Another puzzle..for me, I solve it by writing the patterns on paper and that took about 15 minutes. So recollecting, you are right..it isn't too bad comparative to the others.

 

I still like 2, 4 and Homecoming. but I'm missing a few games out of the "series".

I got starcraft 2 finally! Love this game i just finnished the story and starting in multiplayer

id give you my name so that we could play and i could give you some tips and stuff. im a huge starcraft fan (been playing the game since it came out). but my battle.net account got hacked literally like two or three days ago (and im really lazy to take 5 mins to fix it. lol). but i haven't played it in awhile so i might actually get back to playing it. i doubt im any good though now, i haven't played in about a year. i used to be in the highest league back in the day. i quite cause i had no one to play with. but if you ever want to play shoot me your name and i get back to playing it.

the player name is ivanOoze can you locate me with that? anyway i had enough for today got obliterated in 4against4 to many times, i'm gonna have some weird chaotic dreams tonight

i can't wait for that heart of the swarm add on!

For some reason I get really bored of RTS games really fast these days. I bought Starcraft 2 the day it came out, all pumped to play it. I played the first 3-4 missions and haven't touched it since. What the hell is wrong with me? Maybe it's because I played the first Starcraft to death. I used to have so much fun playing Command and Conquer and Starcraft and Rise of Nations and Age of Empire. Now I just don't have the fun I used to, with that type of game.

you just listed my favorite games growing up. CC: red alert 2 is still probably my favorite RTS game of all time. Edited September 12, 2012 by Frankie5fingers

have you guys checked out command & conquer: tiberian alliances?

 

https://alliances.commandandconquer.com/

 

free browser based c&c multiplayer. a little stripped down, but still pretty fun when you have an hour to kill.

JET SET RADIOOOOOOOOOO!!

 

It's out today for EU PS+ members (yesterday in the US). Can't wait to get back to those SEGA blue skies in Tokyo-To.

^ I was just about to post about that.

i would say fuck yeah, but i still own this game on the dreamcast. is there anything new?

HD graphics, controls are now mapped to dual analog, widescreen support, online leaderboards... off the top of my head.

eh, none of that really matters to me. but i probably will still get it anyways. you can never have enough copies of JSR

Alright, Nintendo Wii U details...

I've been getting involved with the new maps on BF3, damn... they are HUGE! Does anyone here play on PC? I'm only a casual player but if there's some sort of watmm action on the go, count me in.

the Deluxe black Wii U is a no brainer, but $350? Damn

yeah that is a little surprising. but still, its not like the PS3 starting at $600. but they always kept their systems under 300, why the change?

i feel disappointment in the air. my laptop has better specs than this thing

yeah but your laptop isn't a specialised gaming machine, it's multipurpose. you can squeeze a lot more bang out of the hardware when you specialise.
