The Old Sony Megathread

[Baddar]

I guess watching porn seemed like a better alternative after I'd killed the 500th zombie.

[Kaney]

You should get laid.

And then go back to Dead Rising.

[Baddar]

Getting laid whilst playing Dead Rising is something I should consider doing, actually.

[zero]

Make sure to save often.

[New Damage]

I'm confused Zero, is your comment in reply to Demon Souls, Dead Rising 1, Dead Rising 2, getting laid, getting laid whilst playing Dead Rising, or in fact all of the above?

[King Ellis]

Saving during intercourse is always a good idea. If you ever get the broken condom scene, you can always reload.

[zero]

Yes, it was a save during sex joke. And make sure to get lots of 1-Ups.

[New Damage]

Good. I hear you get lots of replay value from doing it that way.

[Herr Matzat]

Keep in mind that the beginning and the ending of the game are Xbox exclusive Downloads for now. I´d still love to play it because the first one already looked like fun.

The little big planet two game has been delay to Jan 18th.

Kinda sucks for a lot of people that wanted to give it to their families for xmas.

[Baddar]

I picked up Army of Two: The 40th Day for 12 quid from Tesco the other day.

I started it last night with my nephew and it's a lot of fun. The shooting is a whole lot better than in another games I've played recently, including K&L 2.

Thanks Liam, I'll give it a whirl. Right now the only thing that's being beaten is my ego when I get brutally slaughtered on the first level. Plus, having to do the same section over and over again just to try and get to the place where my blood got splattered earlier is demoralising to say the least! I will give it one thing though, it certainly gets under your skin. It's beautifully presented and whilst the piss-ant in me would love an easy mode where you can, like, save and stuff, it's still very enjoyable.

As was mentioned after me, a slowly, slowly approach is the way to go. If anything, doing the same section, as long as you then get out of the area and make use of your souls is a decent idea. 1-1 is the best place to start, and the way it works is that (IIRC) the boss is in the big castle ahead of you, but you can loop off around the back of the castle without having to get into the boss fight itself. This is a good way to do things, as you can do a circuit, touch the archstone to go back to the hub area, spend your souls, and then do it again if needs be.

Also, having a weapon with magical properties is handy, but I think I was lucky enough to pick one up. It's damage hasn't matched up statistically to some of the other weapons I found, but it still does more damage due to the magic.

[Baddar]

The co-op mode on Dead Rising is heaps of fun. But fuck Chef Antoine. In the face.

[Clawson]

Can you do the co-op with someone sitting beside you or is it just online?

[Baddar]

Online only, which is a shame.

[Clawson]

Yeah, I'd get it if you could do it offline.

[zero]

I'm playing Case Zero after losing my life to Dragon Age and Plants vs. Zombies. Once I finish it, I'd love to jump in on the DR2 fun.

[Baddar]

DO IT. Just make sure Ellis and Kaney don't talk you into getting it for 360. :/

[King Ellis]

But if you don't get it for 360 you'll lose those 5 levels, money and combo cards.

[Baddar]

Bugger off Ellis, he's getting it for PS3.
