If you’re planning on using it for more than a handful of games upgrading the hard drive would be necessary.

And the shitty thing is the only upgrade past the measly 4GB is a giant damn leap up to 250GB which you will never, ever use all of. It runs about a hundred bucks too.

Since it’s sort of your secondary system I’d see how far you can run without it, it’s very easy to add later. [/quote]

That was my thinking, another kid who works for me brought me some old games Halo Reach and the last Splinter cell. Really just waiting on the GOW 3 to come out. I am hoping that maybe with both systems I can increase the longevity of both. Even if the big HD is $100 not a bad deal to get everything for $200 total.[/quote]

The other option is get 2 16gb USB drives and use them for storage.

Yes that was my other question thanks it reminded me. SO you can use that? No problems with configuring etc?

Not as far as I’m aware since I haven’t used it - you’ll probably need to format them as FAT32 drives under Windows, but that should be it.

I just finished Infamous 2. This game was done extremely well. By the end, it plays out like a movie as far as the script. Honestly, this game deserves much credit for this.

The cool thing is, they made the karma choices so drastically different that you basically get two different games in one.

[/quote]

Dude… those endings. I played through and took the good ending, and watched the evil ending on youtube… man.

Did you feel a little let down by the final boss fight? I honestly was hoping for something more epic as in the opening sequence. It seemed sort of trivial to me, but I guess that’s supposed to show how much more powerful you are? [/quote]

I agree…I wanted more of a challenge at the end…but I also see what they were trying to do.

If they had you go up against that thing with the powers you had at the beginning, you would have been cooked in seconds. I beat him the first try…but I also had plenty of practice going through all of the side missions.

I have to say, giving him a lightening “rope” was a huge tip to spider man…but it worked. The side missions were actually fun to play…unlike some games like GTA IV where some just take up time.

But yeah, after all of that., was expecting something way more epic at the end…and didn’t get it.

The whole game before that was way better.[/quote]

I definitely loved lightning hook or whatever it was called. At one point late in the game, I sort of gave up on going after whatever shard fragments I saw, but once I got lightning hook, and moving around became fun again, I went after all of them. I was kind of disappointed that you get it so late in the game… it’s definitely a really fun skill to use.

-Semi-spoilers for anyone who might be reading-
Personally, I thought the second to last mission, the one in which there’s a thunder storm and you take out the icemen was really awesome. I honestly felt as if that mission was more epic than the final boss.
[/quote]

That last Karma choice was difficult for me.

Spoiler:

Realistically, if the choice was “let the human race die as a race of mutants take over of which I am one of them”…or…“kill off all of the mutants including myself so all humans can live”…I would likely not kill myself considering the humans were already terminally ill.

What would you do?

I picked this up a few weeks ago and damn life and work keeps getting in the way. Hopefully this Saturday get some time to work on this.

X total how long did it take you to beat?

I played it after work…and I guess it took about 2 weeks.

I like this game. For real.

I do hate they wait until so late in the game to give you all of your powers though…because some of those (like the lightening rope and the freeze missile) or cool as shit.

The graphics are on another level while still staying true to the concept art of the first game.

The boss battles are awesome…because they take a decent amount of time to kill, and they move around to fight you as opposed to feeling like every battle is exactly the same.

The side missions are way better thought out…even though they could have added more “insta-crimes” because gun hold ups and exploding bombs get way too much play.

The only real negative is the last battle…because like we said, for a game that did all of this throughout, I was expecting something major…and didn’t get it.

They chose to make it more story driven this time…with more focus on Cole’s friendships and his motivations than the final fight.

The end of the game actually tried to be “sad”…almost.

I may play this again just to be bad this time.

927

^ I have no idea where I am at in the game, havent played in a couple of weeks.

Which I hate cause it takes me a little bit to get back into the groove.

I agree so far on the games graphics and story.

Spoil
That one mission at the beginning where you basically have to jump start the towns electricity with those electric missiles was a bitch. With the current level of powers and that many foes at once was kind of pissing me off.

She said wut up.

Okay so I have to buy COD black ops or MW2, so to play the online stuff I have to get an account? I set up the XBL I thought at least the free version.

RSGZ okay I looked last night at the 360 there was nothing but USB ports on the front of that thing.

When are we playing again? I have my weekends back.

And I totally suck at the online stuff so chances are I will be just cannon fodder. So I have to buy a mic also I guess.

Yep. If you do suck, don’t worry. Me and Worm should be enough to carry the team. And maybe Raf. Outshine Pootie and you’re golden.

Soulja is good too.

Look at the pictures again, you access the hard drive on the right side of the console, not from the front. The grill had a little sprung bit that pops off the flap which reveals the hard drive slot.

937

Damn my bad, okay will look again tonight.

938

Too much Xbox love going on in here.

Pretty good sale coming up on PSN games. I have a gigantic backlog of games but will still probably pick up a few of these such as Pac-Man and Hard Corps (Contra FTW!!!).

939

Well, reading the ‘reviews’ on here, I guess I’ll have to get Infamous after all.

Finished DeadSpace 2 a few weeks ago and I was wondering what to check out next, before Gears of War 3.

Tnx, buddies.

Very little that’s out right now that’s worth buying, in my opinion. Most certainly nothing that compares to Dead Space 2, that game was awesome. The multiplayer was a ton of fun, too.

Deus Ex comes out in late August, I may be buying that one, it looks like a lot of fun.
