After playing about 3 hours of MGS2 at work, I can't help but wonder why didn't Kojima remake MG1 and 2 in 3d HD?

I've mostly been playing Tales of Graces f. Finished the game yesterday basically. The PS3 version has a bonus epilogue chapter which I'm playing through now. It's a good game but I've played better this gen. Played some Black Ops 2 and Persona 4 Arena as well.

Hey you can switch your wii u region to get games from other region eshops.
If you're in Australia:

1. Switch region in settings to UK
2. Make a new Mii
3. Go into UK eShop
4. Buy Mighty Switch Force HD
5. Log out of your UK Mii and into Australian Mii
6. Switch region back

7. Drink deep from the well of hater tears

We are at the same place... Sequence 9.  Have you tried the Frontiersman missions? Those are hilarious.  For those that don't know, you find a group of frontiersmen at a campfire and they will tell you a story about a legend they or someone else has claimed to have seen.  So far, I've investigated a ghost on top of a lighthouse, Sasquatch and the Headless Horseman. LOL  Good stuff!

Though I don't care for Raiden, I couldn't help but fall in love with MGS2 again.  There's so much game play variety, it's crazy.  I am at the part  where I had p freeze 6 bombs.  Snake goes to the second platform and I'm thinking " No!  I wanna go with you!"

MGS2 was an amazing game. Left me spellbound in 2001.

What the fuck? You have the worst taste in games man. Too Human is one of the worst games I have ever played.



It may be one of the worst games you have ever played, but it's not that bad.

Consoles are FOR GAMING imo. The more you move away from that, the more pointless it is to have one when you can get a PC that will do those things better, faster, cheaper.

All the stupid shit they have on xbox now is superflous bullshit. Console is put game in play.

Nonsense and danderwash!



If I had unlimited bandwidth I'd disagree with you. In my reality consoles are still just for putting in games and playing.

But our time has passed GME. It's time to embrace the new world order and start tweeting with your controller.

Finished DmC, really fantastic title, easily the best NT game ever. It never reaches the highs of the other DMC games but it is consitantly great. It is so close to being on their level, the bosses is what really hurt it for me. Anyway now I am playing SoS mode and am dying all over the place. Much better mix of enemies this time which allows you to really sink your teeth into the combat. Fans of this genre just buy the game.



Cool. I am deep into Devil May Cry 3 now and for the first time I think I am really understanding what this game is about. It's reminding me a lot of the NES side-scrollers where you'd have to play a level over and over again before you advanced (and were sent back to the beginning if you died).

I beat the first two like 2-3 years ago, so I had forgotten how useful the orbs were.  Also did not realize how important it is to save so you can carry over your XP.

Well, I've had my 3DS for four days now, and I'm already done with the 3D gimmick. It was neat, but got old quick;  2D mode is better for battery life anyway.

The only minor complaint I have with the 3DS XL so far is the weight. It gets damned heavy after a while. Not a big deal, but still annoying.



I came -=this=- close to getting one this weekend.

Rumor: Sony to abandon DualShock design for PS4

Boo! If true. The DS3 is a near-perfect controller, IMO. Just make the triggers concave instead of convex, and it will be perfect.





Yep I'll agree with this (though they can get rid of the motion control part which is just worthless). It's my favorite controller and I will be very sad to see it go.




I don't buy any of the rumors, but I'l take this opportunity to say I hope both Sony and MS stick with their current controllers.  I do expect they'll both add a small touch screen in the middle though.

If Sony and MS add a screen to their controller, I can't picture them making it a small screen. There's not as much use or appeal to that when compared to the Gamepad.

What I could see happening is Sony creating a new, screenless controller. It would be a lot like a DS3 but with better ergonomics. And they might try to sell another touchscreen controller separately (and/or a separe PS4 bundle). It's not as good as giving one to everybody but it would be a way to keep costs down, which I'm sure they're focused on this time around.

Microsoft seems to be all about Kinect. They seem to think of SmartGlass as a viable alternative but it's just about as clumsy of a solution as you can get. I think they're more interested in getting you to buy Surface than they are with including a screen in their next controller.

Oh and a prediction on the controllers: DS3 will work on the PS4. 360 controllers won't work on Durango (if it uses bluetooth).
