Underwater car scene? Trapped in car? Do something or die? I seem to remember a car scene (though perhaps this one involved fire) discussed on a podcast in which there was imminent death coming, but if you did nothing, nothing happened.

Heavy Rain did have its oddities as well. Not sure if this scene was one of them though.

Anybody interested in some multiplayer gaming tonight?

I missed you, besides Uncharted what games can we play together? After breakfast my day went from bad to worse. I watched The Rock. Which was even better than I remembered when I first saw it in theatres. Wow.

My youngest (and cutest) calf has tick paralysis, which, while I am doing everything I can for him will likely mean I have to shoot him later this week.  That took a bit of time and pyschic energy.

Then I drove for 5 hours. And locked my keys in the truck at the gas station. The silver lining is I successfully broke into my truck using a peice of wire and a knife.

Don't rush your first go, about the only enjoyment I had from this game was from simply soaking in the atmosphere and being into the story.

Me? Not rush a game?

"The PlayStation Vita version of LittleBigPlanet was not scheduled to launch until this coming Tuesday, September 18. But after some retailers opted to sell the game early, Sony’s decided to lift the street date. The game is officially now available in North America, however, online features will not be enabled until Tuesday. "

Made me smile. I cannot recall this happening before.

Geek. Listen to the 8-4 play podcast.

Are you going to tell me that this SH game gives the player more gameplay than a RE lightgun game. I played the exact same game I just came in with a different mentality. I play games to play them, I want to be involved, I dont want everything handed to me . A game where you are told press this button, ok now go through that door, now walk down this hallway now open that cabinet now open that door, is not much a game to me.

My answer is below.

It sounds like you played a completely different game to me Vader. Your opinion is on a completely different plane of existence to mine. Nothing wrong with that, but to me the game is ancient history so I'm not up for intense or detailed debate. However, the lightgun comparison is really f-ed up.

However I would say that you should bin your copy of Endless Ocean right now if you are like this and buy EO2 instead.

Criticising that scene in Shattered Memories based on gameplay and QTEs in Heavy Rains equivalent scene is IMO completely missing the point of that scene. And Game Over screens would have destroyed the atmosphere. The game didn't tell you to do nothing, the point of it was to freak you out as you desperately tried everything to get loose. Maybe if you played Heavy Rain first you would find that scene old hat but SM released 2 months before Heavy Rain and from what I read on GAF from those who played both, they said that SM did not get the credit for doing many things that HR was getting plaudits for.

For those who love their COD, here is a pic of the wii u gamepad during gameplay

Even though I said I wasn't going to buy anymore COD games, the Wii U version has me definitely considering it. If there were more shooters in the launch window I likely wouldn't get it, but I'm tempted.

IR makes any shooter more tempting to me, glad they have it as an option in this sku. But getting over my bad blops experience will take time. Zombi U I don't really see as a FPS, more like an adventure/survival game.

Is Blops 2 Wii U version going to be compatible with wii-remote? The last thing I heard about it controller wise was them pimping out the tablet shit.

It pains me to say this, but I'd almost certainly pick it up then.

Having just finished my FIRST Resident Evil game --E-V-E-R-- with Resident Evil: Revelations (3DS), I reluctantly agreed to go see my first Resident Evil movie (Retribution)...

... WHAT THE FUCK...?

Um, Vader...?

You and I need to talk.
