Oh yeah, did anyone download the Assassin's Creed II DLC? How is it? I'm gonna get a PSN card tomorrow.

Good but short. Took me an hour to get through. No new trophies, but it is a cool add to the storyline.
  

How short we talkin' here? An hour?

 

[limitedretroog]

I thought/heard it was $3 million???

No they did not think that, they made the deal so that the 360 version should have a shot against the ps3 version because the GTA series and Rockstar were so tied to the Sony brand in the eyes of the consumer. Looking back the deal was unnecessary, but M$ did make a profit of the deal so I guess everyone wins at the end of the day 

How did Microsoft make $$$ off that deal ? They paid anywhere from at least $50 million for these episodes. It's safe to safe R* finally decided to make these episodes available on PS3 because they saw how bad they were losing $$$ themselves by the poor sales the episodes were doing on XBOX 360.

Check out this article:

there are no official facts released to the public on what the deal was but i think one popular consensus was that it was an interest free 50mil loan, one desperately needed by rockstar at the time

the plan to make money was for people to purchase it on 360 when it came out, M$s whole selling point was "360, the only way to play the complete GTA experience" or something like that, not that it matters now, but thats what it was, and sales have indicated that during release more people purchased it on 360 which was the plan

as for me, these things really shouldnt be costing 40 dollars or 20 dollars individually after how poorly they sold

Main reason i got the AC2 DLC is beecause you get to use the flying machine and i missed that trophy.

 

[Thats My Word]

What's a good online multiplayer co-opish game you can play with your (3 other) friends? no mw2 or borderlands.

nah i already got 9 inches

but wat i meant to ask was how hard is the transition from controller to the arcade. cus we got the mvc2 arcade at my church and i wanna go in there and whoop some cheeks.

 

[limitedretroog]

It's SO much easier on the arcade. I play it on my controller and I get blisters from using the D-pad, not to mention it's a nightmare having to press square triangle or X circle every time you wanna do a Hyper Combo.

Trust me, if you wanna play MvC2 on PS3, get a stick (and you know what I mean).

poison cloud + thief's ring = slow painful death for the false king.

and you'll never take a single bit of damage.

edit:
i just realized that i put in about 200 hours of work into this game between 6 different characters i made just to get the platinum.

2nd playthrough I just shot his #+! with arrows from the doorway. Wasn't even gonna attempt that ##!*!+++ again.

Get a real good bow (except the lava bow because he'll stagger back too far if you use it) and a crapload of arrows. When you go up the elevator and enter the fog DON'T MOVE. Aim to the left of his head and do work.

 

[sole vintage]

thanks for the tips. i walked into the the room and 2 mins later i was sick and disgusted

how that cheater was a boss

[kingramey]

so is it confirmed that the episodes are coming to the ps3?

i dont feel like looking through the thread

 

[notorious 858]

I'm still working on getting the platinum trophy for God Of War. I'm 3 trophies away from getting it.

The frickin Gold Trophy: I'll Take The Physical Challenge, where you have to complete the Challenge Of The Gods is really making me

I get to the 6th challenge where it's timed and you have 35 seconds to jump on 4 or 5 moving pods but what makes it hard is the frickin archers who are shooting at you and then you have to also time your jumps right when jumping onto the pods.

The other trophies I need is the silver trophy for called "Stick it in your cap" where you have to find and collect all of the Phoenix Feathers. I'm on my 2nd play through of the game right now and think I haven't missed any so far.

The last trophy I need is the gold trophy "Speed Of Jason McDonald" where you have to beat the game in under 5 hours. I'm going to try getting that trophy on my 3rd play through of the game.

But for now I've moved on and started playing God Of War II.

you either got to keep hitting him until he flinches if you're close, or run for your dear life all the way across the room.

Yes, you are def in the minority. Game looks amazing, and with all the different choices you have to make at any given time, wow. Script was supposed to be 2,000 pages for the game.

Can't wait til the 23rd to get this. Goodbye Modern Warfare 2.

Correct me if im wrong, but has this been confirmed for the PS3? Even more so, why laugh now... We've played it - beat it, moving on to something else now. With GTA selling 2:1 Xbox to PS3 don't expect this to all of a sudden become "big".

So

 I guess
