The Old Sony Megathread

[Momo]

Have you tried the one in his sig?

Admittedly not, but then again, it is his Xbox LIVE Gamertag.

(Apologies if he has a PSN tag in his sig as well, cause I can't see one)

EDIT: Sorry, I didn't realise he'd posted it only 2 pages back. It's been months since I've been here and for all I knew, he'd had the PS3 for just as long.

Valkirya Chronicals just kicked my ass HARD in the giant tank fight in the desert

Once the support arrived, it was game over for me.

Yeah, tip:

Run away.

Once his reinforcements arrive, there's nothing you can do but run away. Don't let that chick attack the Edelweiss, or it's game. She does fucktons of damage and will easily end your game for you right there. Basically, the entire strategy is to keep your units away from her.

That's one of the most difficult fights in the game, and once you get it done you'll be screaming "FUCK yes! Take THAT!"

It bums me out that the sequels are PSP exclusive.

[Clawson]

I keep on trying to restart Valkyria Chronicles but then I keep on thinking it may get Trophies so I hold off. But damn it is a beauty.

[New Damage]

Dead Rising 2 done. All cases and overtime done.

Sullivan is the bad guy! SHOCK! HORROR! Rebecca isn't! TK is also a bad guy too!

I gave TK Zombrex to keep him alive which lead to me going into overtime to fight TK, which got me Ending S. Is anyone aware of what happens/what ending you get if you don't give him Zombrex?

So....

I should leave the radiators on the tank alone and just run the fuck away? I ended up losing one of my better engineers (death), and was about to lose Largo (can he die?)....and I had only ONE lancer left, so I said fuck it and turned it off. Will try again later.

Still, such a wonderful, wonderful game.

The tactic IIRC is

Stay to the outside of the tank (as it is coming down the screen, on its left essentially, and make sure that when you get a chance, drop grenades on the engines/heater/whatever it is. By the time that the lady comes, you should be shielded somewhat by the tank (at least some of your men, others might be good for picking off some of the other men that arrive), and it'll take her a good 3/4 turns to get over to the large tank, which you should hopefully be on the verge of picking off by that point

It was something like that. The recommended tactic was always the same though, so if this doesn't make total sense, or doesn't work, any FAQ will tell you something similar, but I may have missed a step out, as it's been a while since I played it.

[Ruki]

It sucks because the lancers take 3-4 shots to destroy one....and grenades, who knows? The only class with more than one are engineers.

[Momo]

You watch, we'll get it day one and half the cars will come as a patch later on >_>

You! Add me to PSN!

...and interesting, a digimon name change....

You, I added you. You, add me!

The fact FFXIII is in there and RE3 isn't makes me cringe [/what to do with lists]

[EWB's Best Poster.]

I would have moved metal gear 3 down lower, uncharted one up higher. Ill give it credit though, it does appeal to everyone there.

However, no sly cooper games? WTF?

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

I'm generally happy with that. Uncharted 2 is amazing as are the Metal Gears, Heavy Rain, Shadow of the Colossus and Oblivion. All of which would make my top 10 PS games.

[New Damage]

Dead Rising 2: Does anyone know how to gain access to the Harley like motorbike that's perched a top of some rocks inside the Yucatan Casino? I'm assuming you need to buy a key but don't know where from.

[Kaney]

I've had 34 of those fifty at one time or another, all awesome games. I don't have a problem with any of the top ten, might shuffle some around somewhere but they're all pretty much deserving.

Valkirya Chronicles

Woo! Beat the fucking tank!!!

I thought all I had to do was kill the radiators....nope. The tank moves up and the bitch DESTROYS all three of my lancers

Thankfully, my tank was able to bring it down solo (with it's last shot....I was about to lose two of my lancers to death)

I just beat Modern Warfare 2's campaign, in like 3 days, and I am very, very disappointed.

What about? I thought the whole thing was fantastic, personally. Not that I can remember specifics. Is it the length that bothered you?

Don't be stupid....the campaign was amazing, even if it was short, the story was amazing.

[Herr Matzat]

I love CGR!

The MW2 campaign is excellent and just meant to be something to get you ready for the online and to tell a good little Hollywood story, throwing a few tense moments at you.
