Since i have only two controllers (six axis and ds3) i use my other two arcade sticks to play Scott Pilgrim with friends. Most fight over wanting to use the sticks. Only thing is that if you have the stick set to LS your character runs and dash all the time, so its best to set to DP and double tap to dash and side step.
I played Mass Effect 1 when it came out on my friend’s x360. Game was super fun until i started to do the side missions. “Go here and kill/save this person” what they dont tell you is that the building is the same mission to mission but with different color walls, so are the people. Love the dialog system. Unlike DA:O, Sheppard speaks and if you are aggressive, he talks shit on people.
Currently playing FF13, shit looks beautiful. Instead of dialog bubbles we get cutscenes? Weird that it took me 2 hours before my characters started leveling up. Music is awesome, Snow’s theme is sick.
Thankfully Bioware mostly got rid of the repetitive side missions that plagued the first game when making the second game. Most of the side missions that you do in ME 2 lead you to planets that actually look different, and you end up doing different types of missions (some are battle-oriented, some are exploration/puzzle-oriented, while many are both). Some of the more hardcore RPG fans prefer the first game, but I really dug the second game over the first, and can’t stand going back to the first game (because of its sub-par combat, tedious loot and inventory system, and repetitive side missions). I’ve been wanting to make a renegade female Shepard from ME 1, but just can’t get myself to go back to it, especially after being spoiled by the gameplay of the second game.
Honestly, I think that it’s potentially a good thing that ME 1 isn’t coming out on the PS3 (especially if the PS3 version adds an introduction and a way to make the major decisions from the first game), because some of the flaws from the first game have the potential to turn off gamers, and because ME 3 is going to incorporate gameplay similar to ME 2 (at least, from what I’ve read).
I like playing online, and Sony’s been pretty on the ball with at least trying to fight piracy on the PSP, so I’d rather not bother. Now, if they make a dongle to let me play PS2 games on my non-BC PS3…
It’ll probably turn out like the 360 where if you do pirate shit, you can’t sign into live. $300 buyin for a system you can’t play online is steep, though.
Price is too steep for something that can be obsolete next week, unless you never update your PS3.
I have every game I want right now, and there is not 3 games coming out soon that I would pay full price for.
