You should also check out some other little known indie bands like The Beatles or The Beach Boys or The Who some time. The The is a good indication of their worth.commanderdeek said:

Nice work shitting on their party. Think of the poor retailer who wanted to make a big deal out of this expensive promotion!VOOK said:
If it counts at all LOGS seem to be coming in and out of securing stock so it may indeed be properly limited.commanderdeek said:

Skyrim is unequivocally a console first game. Every asset, every design, made first and foremost for consoles. Hence why I'll be waiting for a price drop/sale later on, when modders have cleaned up Bethesda's mess.
Uncharted 3 is a good game and all, but chapter 15 especially has shown up how bad the controls can be. And I dont mean shooting controls which are fine. I mean platforming and character movement controls. Someone described it as controlling a wet noodle, and that's accurate. Drake moves worse than Wander in SOTC.
Combat is silly, with the same old hit combos each and every time. On rails escape sequences/chase sequences are trial and error death fests. And there is some seriously bad telegraphing of where you are meant to jump next. Which is amazing considering how many gold tiles and gutters there are to hang off of.
Case in point: I'm dangling from a rope and need to get to the ground. I drop down myself and I die. I jump onto another fixture at the same height, which then falls to the ground and I live.
This. Does. Not. Make. Sense.
The game needs a serious lesson from UC2 or Batman if the 4th entry is to be worthwhile. As it stands, I'm only going through the game because the last two suggest there will be enough moments of brilliance to make up for it.
Short version: I'm disappointed that Uncharted 3 has managed to introduce low points for the first time in the series. I thought Naughty Dog knew better than this.
Control wise, no. And that includes waggle.
edit: I'm going to go a bit further.
Generally speaking, shooting controls in it are fine. Stealth controls are fine. Platforming and hth combat controls range from average at best to bad at worst.

I read this:
- Rock Paper Shotgun (Review site that doesn't ride publisher dicks like the others)
I can have it right now but I refuse to pay $78 for it.
Hmm....though I got MW3 for 40 bucks only, so money saved there can be money spent here.

I missed you Death! Hope you learnt your lesson!
This child rearing stuff is a piece of cake. GF is away for the night and I had a ball with the little guy tonight and he is already down to bed. Going to clean the place from top to bottom so she thinks it should be simple to do all the time when I am at work. Also got the little guy a rocking chair handed down. Loves it.
Also got these today
The UC3 guide is fantastic quality, plus it comes with a soundtrack CD. Only cost me $19 from BookDepository.com. Also picked up HYPER for the kick ass cover and for the Vooks and Jintor pieces of course.
Found all the opinion pieces on the older games to be fantastic by the way, very much worth the $10 I spent to pick it up. Plus bonus Madman DVD so I can finally watch this High School Of The Dead tonight that is so critically acclaimed!
Aside from that I had no other deaths due to platforming sections. Also by the end of the game I had mastered the cqc controls to the point where I could run into a room and make a beeline around taking down 2-3 guys with cqc before ducking into a cover spot to pick off the last few dudes. A good tip is to soften a guy up with a hip fire shot when you are about 3 meters away from him and to use different levels to your advantage. If you are above or below a guy it will be an insta kill (aside from Juggernauts of course).

Only platforming problem I had was as young Drake dropping over the roof after Sully and Helen Mirren.
Best thing about RPS is that they write opinions not statements of fact, they also make it obvious rather than trying to say that if someone doesn't like a game they give glowing remarks to it is okay and normal.DeathJr said:
