  1. GT5 was prologue was sold out at my local supermarket, and only 3 bundles left of the GT5 version of the PS3. What gives? Anyone here tried it out? Worth 39
  2. I never cared for rumble. Actually, when playing Lost Odyssey on the Xbox 360, it's borderline annoying. But this is the PS3 thread, so no matter. Currently, i am playing Guitar Hero III every now and then. Still waiting for a decent jRPG for it (White Knight, Last Remnant, Final Fantasy XIII, where art thou?).
  3. This has to be something from the marketing department. People from the PC-super-human-master-race understand that this is just a number of permutations (3 variables with 3-4 possibilities each), as Tigranes described. The common console-sheep doesn't understand, nor care about these semantics. Therefore, 90% of all comments on the internet will be "OMG!!!11 200+ endings AWESUM!!111"[/RPGCodex]
  4. They have certainly been occupied. 35 issues last week, 17 and a new build this week
  5. True, i didn't touch Oblivion again until i heard about the OOO-mod.
  6. Back to topic, skills are described when reaching "max"-level: - Orator. You deal with people in a charming, intimidating or stoicly serious way. You decide. - Hacking. You are never on the place where things happen. However, you can launch a nuclear attack on North Korea from a "lost" iPhone. - Security. You were the technical security advisor for the Mission Impossible movies. And you only instructed them on the basics. - Stealth. Only Ninjas will know where you are, but that's only because they can feel your precence, not by actually seeing you. - Medic. You can heal yourself better than anyone else. People will question your (lack of) mortality. - Weapons that can pierce and cut. Even CIA-agents can learn the way of the katana that would put Masamune and Muramasa to shame. - Light weapons that shoot bullets. Think Bronson in "Death Wish". - Heavy weapons that shoot bullets....and rockets. Think Rambo or Commando, the choice is yours. - Bruce Lee, your body is a weapon. - Luck, bullets and missiles strangely miss you and people sometimes die when you punch them on their little finger. It happens.
  7. Thanks, no upgrade for me until the performance on games is at par with XP. Maybe by late 2009/early 2010 perhaps.
  8. Yoko is supposed to have little clothes on. Remember, this anime is not a satire, rather a celebration of everything that's "wrong" in anime As for One Piece, i tried to watch 3-4 episodes. But it was really, ehum, too juvenile for me. Especially the whole "RO-RO-RO-ROCKEEEEE-TTTOOOOOO"-part.
  9. I had a phase of "Leone" this weekend. Bear in mind, i haven't watched these movies since i was a little kid on a 14" TV on a VHS. This time around, it was the extended editions on DVD, played on the PS3, upscaling them to 1080i to my HDTV, and add Dolby Digital 5.1 sound theatre for the sound: - A Fistfull of dollars - 8/10: Good story, the cinematography is beautiful to say the least. - For a Few Dollars More - 9/10: Better characters and story this time around. The "bad" guy was well written and acted. The end duel was breathtaking. - The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly - 10/10: The whole movie is a pure bliss, basically excellent on all areas: Characters, music, direction and cinematography. If someone asks "what makes movies art?". Then just show them the last 30 minutes, starting from when Tuco finds and runs into the cemetary to the ending duel. This is a movie that anyone should watch. I thank you Leone and Morricone *hats off* - Once upon a Time in the West - 9/10: Of all the previous ones, this one has the best intro. Just see it to believe it. Sadly, it suffers from some irregularities in the story progression. However, Henry Fonda makes up for it, being a perfect bad-ass villain.
  10. I can see the irony of this: The guy who was most vocal about his opinion had been hijacked for filming this movie "Expelled" (An anti-darwinist film, i gather), was expelled from the screening. All along while his friend, the very famous Richard Dawkins slips in. You simply can't make this up And now, now. No need to make this thread into a anti-christianity thread. Many of the very best scientists, who happen to be religious, are the most proponents of the theory of evolution.
  11. Bingo! Joking aside, there are too many instances where it seems like the game-designers let the summer trainees have fun with the design for a while. But the levelling system in Oblivion is the latest candidate for me.
  12. The guy really, really, really hates Halo, doesn't he?
  13. I definately have to watch that one again this weekend. All Leone's movies are an audiovisual mastery.
  14. It was more certainly profane, but it was more coherent and made more sense. I would wait for the enhancement pack as well. They promised to fix the animations as well, which is mostly welcome. Most of the animations looked really out-of-place in the original version.
  15. I had a day off work, so thought that i would see some more Scorcese-movies: The Departed 9/10 Goodfellas 9/10 Casino 10/10 All three of them are flawlessly equal in terms of characters and story-telling, but Casino beats them with it's magnificent cinema-photography.
  16. Finally someone who understands it
  17. Nice screenies, it does resemble more of Uncharted than Mass Effect though. Maybe it is the color palette or less focus on achieving photorealism. Pop ha some valid points though. It more or less depends on the story-line and characters to make it believable though. I mean, by reading the story of Deus Ex, it doesn't sound special on paper, but they managed to pull it through nicely.
  18. That should happen every time in the game if either your 1) Marksman skill is low, or 2) Your strength is too low. Shoot to many times, and you black out, waking up in the hospital.
  19. You have failed your final test, Alvin. I'm sorry. Aww...i knew this was a trap... Don't let it stop you, Desert Eagles, a.k.a. "The Hand Cannon" are a must. Also, i want the game to have a Barrett anti-tank sniper-rifle. You know, like the british mercenary in Rambo IV.
  20. Your girlfriend's a Farscape fan? Keeper. Indeed, but i think it has something to do with the lead character
  21. As stereotype comic-book villain as you can get. Don't worry, it's more like a comic relief than irritating.
  22. I live in Finland. Lot's of forest and not a lot people to begin with. And to add to that, people tend to avoid each other, so those kind mannerisms are uncommon where i live. And to add to that, i am about the same physical size as Gorth, so i tend not have problems either. Bad manners here are young people being a bit loud on the bus, but that's pretty much it. They usually shut up when someone gives them the "thousand yard look", which finns tend to be good at. Criminal activity is another issue, though. And face it, the older you get, the more irritating the youth become.
  23. PC: Still playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R., trying to escape from the X18-bas was more difficult than i imagined. Xbox360: Lost Odyssey, about 40hours in and on the third disc. The main bad guy laughs as Darth Malak :sad:
