  1. Yeah. I'd probably value Gametrailers/IGNs picks tbh. IGN'll have an awards thing after Christmas like normal I guess (or is it before?) so this VGA thing can smd.
  2. I disagree. The campaign was pretty tame and online modes are generally neglected when you people vote for GOTY. Obviously Cod is a different beast because everyone knows that is mainly for online, and having a set-piece style single player will keep it memorable, probably deservedly so, but KZ does deserve some sort of mention.

    Yeah it's pretty badass having that. I'm level 40 and would have sold the game a few days ago had i not wanted to get the platinum. Just upgrading Bloodwing to give me health. Cex are taking this in for a trade of £29 in cash, according to their website. That's pretty impressive.
  4. I think some have forgotten that Killzone 2 came out this year. I don't think this will help when it comes to awards because there is no time like the present, people will only be talking about fairly recent releases. KZ2 was astoundingly good online though.
  5. Actually to be fair there are quite a lot of people on my FB friends list that don't deserve respect, namely X-factor fans, that probably should be subjected to constant trophy status updates. The sods.

    Just mopped up the alternative character trophies, 'all' I need to do now is get to level 50 for the platinum. Overall I'd give the game a 7.5/10 Ok I didn't properly experience co-op but I don't believe it's all what it's cracked up to be - i.e not significantly better to get more than a 0.2 higher in a review. I think the whole presentation side let it down, there were only 2 or 3 cutscenes, the NPCs didn't really interact and the narrative as a whole was pretty tame. Still, it had enjoyable shooting mechanics, and after just playing as the other classes, their powers seemed considerably funner.
  7. Yeah I just finished watching it and was surprised at that, they slated it throughout.
  8. Nah that's OK do that.
  9. The GT review made me want this slightly, they gave it an 8.7, but I could see that it looked like a solid and fun FPS. Shame it's only on PC/360.
  10. I have too much respect for my friends, for myself even, to post trophy and game updates on my FB. I won't be bothering. I'd rather they just gave more freedom in how we manage our friends list and let us edit our profile stuff a bit more, incl. ability to choose which trophies you display on the ID etc.
  11. Yeah. Might be a problem if you want to do a trade in for a new copy of AC2. You'll get more money if you do it for Cex vouchers and they'll be redundant until they have the game in stock next week. You could just accept the cash amount and go to game but then that's probably too much hassle. Btw I'm now contemplating buying AC2. It's the imminent pre-release anticipation disease that I caught off you.
  12. Hang on Ryan, don't suppose you could do me another awesome deal?

    I reckon the Borderlands DLC will be a pile of shit, so I'm not bothering. Maybe if they did something drastic with the environment and added some insane eridian weapons then yeah, but it just seems a bit half-assed with what's been displayed. I'm not going to bother to go through the campaign again, it's not worth it because there aren't exactly memorable missions, rather just hide behind a level 50 and pummel the xp earnings. And @ Shorty, with the red weapon boxes I found them to be very disappointing from level 28 onwards. Nothing cool came out of them and they all had weapons for levels 15 and below that were worth nothing. Pissed me off, I stuck with a level 19 sniper up until level 34 because the accuracy of it hadn't been bested and it still did a nice amount of damage. Was a Rolling Sniper I think, now I have this Electric one that only has a 3 bullet clip but its majorly rewarding to use. (apologies for poorly constructed post)
  14. Yeah it tasted like someone got the fizzy cola bottles but removed half of the sugar and then squeezed it inta a can. I thought it was pretty rank. 2 friends said it tasted like Rola Cola, cheap brand stuff, but I can't remember having it.
  15. Cola basically, but shit.
  16. No it's where he has to get to treasure chests that are being 'protected' by guards. He manages to get to the chests by making them run after a bunch of random hooligans as well as just jumping behind them and taking the goods without them batting an eyelid. The other was the smokebomb technique which admittedly looks cool.
  17. I saw one of the side missions that they showed as an exclusive at Gametrailers. Looked pretty poor if I'm being honest, then again it was ruined by developer narration that spoiled what was going to happen seconds before he did it. AI made an abysmal showing.
  18. GAME are shocking compared to Cex, I'd advise against you doing a trade-in with them just because you could do much better. Not sure. Have you got any chums that have a PS3 but not the game? I guess if you're at uni that's a no. Bah, do what you want.
  19. I sold mine to a friend. Otherwise, Cex is a good bet for trade ins. Or eBay it. Btw I want that BL co-op trophy!

    You probably got lucky. I just played with Daft and it was pretty poor.

    Completed this a few hours ago.
  22. If you just tap circle a few times he rolls and sticks, removing the issue.
  23. He is brilliant though, his past 10 or so reviews have been top quality and that one was funny anyway. Drake does seem to have that magnetic attraction to walls. Yahtzee does like to go against the crowd, and he didn't like the first game so he left himself no choice but to slate the sequel.
  24. 'That's bullshit.' Aha, nice vid. I'm going to be constantly trying that. Thing is do you not get deathcams unless it is replayed as the winning kill? And there's no match playback support is there?

    At level 31 now, managed to upgrade the last skill on my sniper tree to the max, which means all sniper shots pass through shields. Good times. Been playing the game solo mainly just because I can't be arsed with the buggy online, but it's been fun, challenging in a few places, but there's quite a few quests below my level that I can't be arsed to do. It's the whole 'turn in!' problem where you have to fast travel to a place and wait for loading screens just so you can trek over to someone and say you've finished the quest. Extra annoying when you can't fast track to the right location which means 2 load screens. Ah well. The Old Haven place is pretty treacherous for me atm, the enemies seem to respawn quite frequently and they have powerful weapons. Will level up a couple more times before finishing the stuff around there.
