  1. Batman: Arkham City

    Anyone heard about save files disappearing on the 360 after you reach 80%? I'm at 71% though i'm not sure if I want to keep going to just to have my stuff get erased.
  2. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    Hoping to get this tomorrow, mine was dispatched from GAME on Monday . Going to need many AA batteries.
  3. Simpsons Arcade Finally Heading To XBLA/PSN?

    The old arcade market is something they should take more advantage of. There are plenty of games like this that would work well. Sunset Riders!
  4. Simpsons Arcade Finally Heading To XBLA/PSN?

    I seriously hope this is true. I never bloody completed that game!
  5. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    I'd have to agree with the above. It's weird how so many of us read up on nearly everything TP related. I remember there was a video of the intro and first 10 minutes of the game. Watched all of it. Also about the villain and whether Zelda was in it or not. Also most of the early cut scenes. I had all that revealed to me before I even put the disc in. I did think this ruined parts of it for me. The parts I enjoyed the most were the ones I knew the least about. I still don't rate TP too high as it seemed to follow the OOT set-up way too closely. You had the standard beginning 3 dungeons, you get conned by the villain who ruins everything, then it's onto another 5-6 dungeons. Some of which even in familiar locations. As I remember MM only had 4? Though it was fine because they had so much more personality and challenge to them. I'm just hoping the dungeons aren't just there to advance the plot line and have a little more effort thrown in.
  6. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    Yes that's true, perhaps it was an unfair comparison. It is a different experience like you say. I am hoping that it's going to be a return to form. Quite hyped about it now as I have no idea what to expect
  7. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    I did and am doing the same. I had no self control with TP, was watching any video going. When I came to playing it there was no sense of awe because i'd already seen it. It was different with OOT as it was all just images from magazines. I hope this one has a load more secrets and side quests. The problem I had with TP is that it was so vast but there was no real incentive for me to explore. I think i've been spoilt by recent games. For example Fallout 3. Yeh there's no real reason for me to go and explore that building in the distance, but hey I might get some more ammo/food/xp out of it and maybe a side quest. It's a great formula, which OOT did have and to a lesser extent WW. MM was built around bloody side stories and quests haha. I guess i'll see when I play it.
  8. Battlefield 3

    I still think there are way too many snipers for my liking. It's a perfectly legitimate class and plays a useful role however people don't seem to take into account how many are on their team. The amount of rush games of defence i've won simply because the attacking team won't move. They only ever realise when the counter starts reading about 5-10, by which time it's too late. Is K/D really THAT important to these people, this is the wrong game for that and hopefully in time they'll realise that. That being said I had some fantastic games yesterday. So glad mines stay on the ground after you die. Got so many vehicle kills There are some bloody good heli and plane pilots now too, shame they fly too close to my rocket launcher ho ho ho!
  9. Battlefield 3

    I see. It would've been nice to have that made clear in the description somewhere .
  10. Battlefield 3

    Ah righto. Maybe it says that in the description somewhere then. Though the Stinger doesn't seem to work on ground vehicles?
  11. Battlefield 3

    Is it me or is it not totally obvious if a rocket launcher is for anti-ground or anti-air. I unlocked a Javelin so I thought "Yes! Something to take out those bastard Helicopters". I go to fire it and it doesn't do shit. I try it on a tank and low and behold it works. Am I just meant to have like basic military knowledge of what takes out what?
  12. Batman: Arkham City

    The pad ones are frustrating me too. There are a few I really can't figure out. Also I was browsing the radio frequencies and...
  13. Battlefield 3

    It amazes me how thick some people can be playing this game. Had a few last night where the enemy team were meant to attack yet they felt it was more entertaining to sit at the back of the map, snipe, and eventually lose the round. I don't get it.
  14. Battlefield 3

    I think where this game excels is the sounds and effects in general. Yeh it's not the prettiest game ever but when you're being shot at with RPG's and tank shells exploding all around you, it's just immense!
  15. Battlefield 3

    Been playing online for the past few hours (Xbox 360). All I can say is it's fantastic! Retains everything good about the series but just makes it so much more, real. The sounds and sights of it all. The guns, explosions, tanks, choppers etc. Just gives you that feeling of being in an actual battle. What i've noticed so far is that it seems much more balanced. Very impressed.
  16. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    All I know about the game is that there's a sky world and the world below. Oh and it's set before OOT. One of the reasons I don't want to look at any videos is that I saw one where it showed you how a puzzle was solved. Didn't appreciate that really. I'm going to have to buy a bumper pack of batteries for this game...
  17. Battlefield 3

    I used to regularly fly a helicopter full of soldiers into a tree or ocean. It's all a learning curve. Pro at it now, until the new one is out.
  18. Grand Theft Auto 5

    This is certainly good news. I seem to be one of the few that really loved GTA 4. In terms of story it was just behind GTA 3 for me. Never got on with San Andreas, the characters bored the shit out of me. I'd love a Sopranos style storyline again but that'd be retreading old ground. Just let me ramp a car into an oncoming train and i'll be happy.
  19. Batman: Arkham City

    440 assorted riddles/trophies. 20 odd side quests. Crap load of combat challenges. The city is huuuuge! I reckon if you took your time you could get a good 25-35 hours.
  20. Batman: Arkham City

    I'm not sure to be honest. I haven't come across it so far.
  21. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    I didn't know about the LA and MM connection (I feel a bit strange shortening the titles to two letters I hope people know what i'm on about) but I can definitely see it now. LA is my favourite out of all of them. It was really quite difficult and just plain odd, like you say without really explaining it. Animal villages? Weird Vampires called Richard (I believe) A Windfish!? Had a great dreamlike feeling to it.
  22. Batman: Arkham City

    Same code? or two different. I do feel fortunate as it seems it's pretty widespread.
  23. [Spoiler-Free] Zelda: Skyward Sword

    Interesting point, I'd say I partly agree. Though I never really thought of the recurring characters as "oh it was that guy from Kakariko". I think MM stands brilliantly on its own merit. It has a strange charm all of its own and if not for the introduction would be quite hard to link it to OOT. As far as Skyward Sword goes. I won't judge until i've played it. It has been such a long time since i've played a Zelda game which i've truly enjoyed and has had that 'feeling' of awesomeness. I'll get slammed for this but the last one for me was Wind Waker. Yes the difficulty sucked, some gameplay mechanics were awful (setting winds to sail in certain directions, ah!), and the story was pretty crap but it had a freaking personality. Something (for me) I felt Twilight Princess lacked.
  24. Batman: Arkham City

    So anyone have code issues? My mates Catwoman code wasn't printed. I had no suggestions for him over than to refund and get a new one.
  25. Batman: Arkham City

    I've done 9% and been playing it quite a bit. Spend a lot of time wandering streets, doing side missions, general looking around for riddler clues. Also...
