I wouldn't say PSN offers great choices in either of those genres. Peggle is very good, that's if you haven't got it for another platform. Mushroom Wars is another competent strategy game, quite annoying though.

 

Otherwise, why limit yourself to those fields when they may be lacking? If you haven't got any of the following: Wipeout HD, Super Stardust HD or Battlefield 1943, you're probably doing something wrong.

 

Shatter and the Pixel Junk series may have something you're looking for.

Just got into the "Customs House" in Uncharted. I'm having a bit of a love/hate relationship with it. The combat is frustrating, having enemies jump down behind you near the end of a long combat section is really annoying, and enemies seem to be massive bullet sponges unless you get a headshot. The camera is also terrible at times (especially after plating Tomb Raider Underworld).

 

One thing I don't understand are the Nathan Fillion comments. He's nothing like him and much more like Joe Flanigan.

 

Also started playing Motorstorm Pacific Rift. It's pretty fun (though nowhere near ExciteTruck). One big disappointment was when I had an awesome-looking race and wanted to watch it and discovered there was no replay feature.

Those issues you have in Unch are more prevalent at the start of the game, plus I don't think the sequel suffers from that at all.

 

As for Motorstorm, the lack of replays is lame. However, the insistence on the comparison to Excite Truck is ridiculous, they control nothing like each other. Motorstorm is a much more weighty and precise affair, whilst ExciteTruck is about flair and pulling off quick, reactive manoeuvres.

Yeah Uncharted 1 had overly bullet sponge enemies. You have to aim for the head.

Uncharted? Pah. It's a decent game but these days its just a rite of passage to the awesomeness of Uncharted 2 :D

 

You're completely right. Finished Uncharted and started Uncharted 2. Just got to Nepal and it's brilliant so far. I'm enjoying it much more than the first one.

New vid for the sharpshooter. Showing improved SOCOM graphics(and KZ3).

 

Worth pointing out that if people remotely liked KZ3 Move controls then SOCOM Move will blow you away.

 

Good vid - a major departure from Link's Crossbow Training! :laughing:

I'm pretty sure the sharp shooter has a Nav controller built in.

Edit: Strangely, GAME have a Killzone 3/Move/Sharpshooter bundle for £164.99. Buying all that separately from GAME costs £152.99 (and £138.96 if you buy from elsewhere).
