When I have a pen on me I spin it round my hand endlessly, sometimes I push the boat out and go for a triple spin for 1080 degree madness! If you don't know what I mean by this then you can watch this video, but I found out because a friend informed me of this beaut. And if you're wondering, then yes, you do get people staring in wonder as you use your pr0 move in the smuggest of manners.

I lose! You win.

Is that a shot at me or do you mean there wouldn't be populated games? I take it as the fomer but meh.

How much am I missing out on then? I'll wait a while for it to drop in price, £7 would be nice. It seems like a game that you'll play every now and then after the initial hype week so there should be a large *community continue looking into the future.

Well when I said rip off it was mainly down to it being that I remember it being priced around £8 which I thought was very reasonable. However the dollar/pound conversion is pretty poor and I think if it's a relatively small online game with a few maps then there's no reason it should be more than Battlefield. I'm not denying it's probably really fun but sometimes you sort of know when a game doesn't quite deserve its price tag. With Wipeout they could easily have released it on blu-ray because of the content and production values it possesses. When a PSN game is sub-£10 it helps psychologically somewhat, when it breaks this barrier I start to think that maybe it would be better getting a full game that I've missed out on.

Hehe, I can't really remember using it that much, but there was a much larger focus on jumping around and using gadgets etc, plus funny moments were more abundant & IIRC there was a bit more backtracking and swingshotting etc. That and it was the original so it had more story to explain and was generally awesome. I think I posted the chicken gun advert somewhere, maybe the previous page. What I do remember was the m3gat0n weapon that cost 50,000/500,000 bolts or whatever, can't remember the name though... Think! Erm - Ah, it was called the RYNO! Such an awesome weapon. Just taking a line from the R&C wikia:

I enjoyed this generation greatly before I went HD, now its that little bit sweeter.

In the first game there were golden bolts hidden around the worlds that were tough to find, you were rewarded with being able to turn the weapons golden. That was goooood, plus there was way more platforming in the first game.

Yeah, for a rip-off price too.

I know I'm kind of retreading old ground here but I'm not really that excited for the game. There weren't many memorable moments or cutscenes from ToD, well maybe one cutscene, but when the shooting is the main part of it and it becomes boring despite the large Arsenal these videos coming out aren't quashing the fears and obviously they won't be because all the 'fans' love tons of weapons. At least it's looking incredibly good visually.

Sorry if posted, but watching this makes me very excited about the new MU season, especially Michael Owen. He's still got a couple of years in him.

Haha me and a friend didn't quite make it to 201% but your experience sounds very similar to ours. The game is unfair!

What I love about the thought of using a telescope etc is that you may catch someone nobody else will see, and no-one will get the same view as the next person. I'm really tempted to get into it all, seeing as I'm always up late not doing a whole lot.

It's a game of one-upmanship. When you've hit the character that the person beside you is controlling in the face with a crate, it's like you've just insulted them and their face reveals a pained expression. It has a good mix of luck and skill, like the pinball type game, although the car racing is mostly reactions and nerve.

Haha, that was quite funny reading what you put the other day then following up with 'online is shit' as if to sum up the last couple of days of playing the game as briefly as possible.

Yes, by using the 'dive down and look upskirt at virtual knickers' button.

Well you're just desperately looking for ways to label me a fanboy and the profile details don't prove anything. Anyway I'm fed up of arguing with you here's the line: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That Fat Princess space actually looks good, the prize is pointless because I don't see why you would spend time in your apartment but hey puzzles - fun. Still won't be getting the game though.

Wtf is this then? Actually find me some fanboy quotes.

You're trying to dismiss me for using fanboy arguments against you in this thread, yet there aren't any. I've used multiplatform games to convey some points, my favourite game ever is Metroid Prime and I've mentioned Wii Sports as a great innovator and you say I'm a 'Sony product' despite being open to anything as long as it's good. I'd just like some evidence of this fanboyism, because you become more and more ridiculous. Part of the reason this debate started was because you made a patronising comment against me, so obviously you weren't going to get away with it.

Yeah it's just that I have discussed the first 3 games plenty enough, they are all awesome. I gemmed each game, platinum relic'd Warped and found it all a blast. Bash is actually a very fun game.

I just think it's dumb complaining that there isn't as great an abundance of unique games when it was easier back then and when there is a game in each genre from this day that almost matches the innovation from back then as well as adding other avenues to the game, like online etc.

Yeah you could play all of those and come out having a different experience with each, they all have their own perks and so playing them wouldn't get boring like playing multiple COD games in a row would.

Anyone remember this game? I think what made it so great originally was that it offered quality multiplayer without having to make you squint by splitting the screen. The minigames were simple yet had a good slice of strategy and playing co-op in the story mode was fantastic, with some great challenges late on in the game along with fiendish bosses. Throwing crates at peoples faces was awesome!

But then you enjoyed Bioshock so much and that was largley just shooting. I think you're kidding yourself if you aren't enjoying these top quality current gen games. Every different game has it's unique perks and Bioshock did it for you, probably because of the atmosphere and the presentation etc. Now I don't know what you're expecting from games anymore, as I've said these genres have proved to be very entertaining and that's why they are still getting great reviews, but if you think it's possible for them to completely ditch everything like controls and gameplay ideas then you're probably wrong until we get true 3D or spectacular motion controls. Games have evolved and they've remained as brilliant as they were in the past, and there was always going to be a breakthrough stage in the beginning, now we're making them as best as possible as well as throwing in new ideas. You would've stopped playing them by now if you weren't satisfied. Whenever you mention an original there is always a recent game that is equally as innovative for it's respective time of release.
