Posted June 13, 2008 I've seen the sleeve in-store at HMV, looks real nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 I want that sleeve more than the normal one to be honest. But beggers can't be choosers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 I can't really afford to get this at the moment... gutted! In the last 2 days over £700 has come out of my bank account! No good! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 I'd intended to buy this in HMV for the extra sleeve today, but it was ten euro dearer, so I just got it in GameStop instead as oddly Game didn't have it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 Think I will negate paying my phone bill when I get my pay next week to just be able to buy this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 13, 2008 GameStop, GAME and HMV in the same place? Where exactly do you live? I thought GameStop was an american shop while the other two are European/English. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 I'm near sure I've seen GameStop before, and I've not been to the states. Also, Rob3008 said about the price being in Euro's so that kinda rules out the USA... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 There are Gamestop stores across Europe, there's one in Birmingham and Stockport. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 I'm pretty sure I've seen a gamestop in the UK, but Gamestop does have shops in Europe as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 13, 2008 Yea, i'm sure there's GameStops across Europe, just didn't think there was any in the UK. Got my DS from them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 14, 2008 Damn , this is addictive as hell. Thought I would give myself a couple of hours on this last night and just spent hours wandering around , exploring and admiring the scenery , next thing I knew , it was 5am. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 Ooops, decent expect my comment to cause so much confusion! I'm in Galway in the West of Ireland, not as backwards as ya might think evidently Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 Please tell me there's an alternative control method I haven't found. Using the Wii remote is fun, but there's no way I'm going to swing it for 30 hours. I'm fine with destroying vases and such, but it's too tiresome when you add battles on top of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 Do you swing the remote like it's baseball bat? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm fine with destroying vases and such, but it's too tiresome when you add battles on top of it. Yea, as HellFire said, how exactly do you swing it? All you need to do is a little flick on the wrist. I've done long sessions and didn't get tired at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 So no ones found Wii controls to be imprecise or difficult to pull off then so far as some sites have pointed out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 I haven't really felt it was difficult, not much different the controls to attack in TP I thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 So no ones found Wii controls to be imprecise or difficult to pull off then so far as some sites have pointed out? I've rarely had difficulty in pulling it off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 14, 2008 A lot of the times I end up running forth and back trying to attack, it doesn't matter if I swing like crazy or just tilt the controller, sometimes I just don't attack. I guess all I need is practice, but I don't think I will ever like the new controls, I prefer buttons for attacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2008 I got this on the 13th, but havent had time to play it that much. The game costed around 53€, kinda much for a port.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 15, 2008 I've STILL not played through the PS2 version of it. Since I realised how little I'd get for a PS2 on Ebay I decided to keep it, which meant I couldn't really justify the Wii version. I haven't got the motivation for a 30+ hour game at the moment.

Posted June 16, 2008 Only played this for a few hours so far, but am enjoying it. It's a really beautiful game. My biggest gripe is with the in-game text, I find it blends in way too much with whatever is in the background making it quite difficult to read (not exactly ideal for a game like this). Would've been better if the text box wasn't so transparent. Anyone else had problems with it, or do I just need to get my eyes tested? But yeah apart from that it's all good, looking forward to progressing a bit more and learning some new techniques. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
