I just put The Last Guardian in my amazon cart, along with Bioshock 2 and Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy XIII Versus.
Although I have absolutely no idea what the difference is between XIII and XIII Versus. Can somebody explain it to me :think:
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

Two completely different games. For a start, one is single-player, and the other is multiplayer.

Oh, fuck that. Versus is multi-player, I'm assuming? If so...delete from cart...

Good, I thought you had actually paid for them now. I always need to read at least the first reviews before parting with my cash.

Yes, Versus is the multiplayer one. Doesn't sound as good anyway.

Dungeon Lords 2: The Orb and the Oracle - despite the amount of bugs and issues in Dungeon Lords it was actually a pretty cool and interesting game so I'm looking forward to this one.

Also, Arcania - A Gothic Tale (aka Gothic 4), Deus Ex 3 and potentially Medal of Honor

Side Note: Already playing Mass Effect 2. On my 5th play-through.

I WANT:

Assassin's Creed II

C&C 4 Tiberian Twilight

Transformers: War for Cybertron

Splinter Cell: Conviction
Once he ruled all his lands with a firm iron hand,
Not a queen by his side never knew the reason why
At the end of the tale I now finally see
That the Tragic King is me

All alone on my throne once held powers so strong
Searched for wisdom of Gods and the will to carry on
In my eyes you can see peaceful rest finally
Behold King of Tragedy

Axenstar - King of Tragedy

Peter, I've seen you playing Heavy Rain, is it any good?

It's a love or hate thing. Meaning people just won't get it, or they'll think it's a game-changer. It's been years since I enjoyed a game so much. Loved every moment, my heart was often pounding, and I'm desperate to replay it right now.

If you want to work out some anger and just shoot things, it isn't for you. It's a more involving experience. Unlike Mass Effect 2 etc, the feature of the story changing depending on your actions isn't just a novelty feature. It's handled excellently, and it's the first game where I've struggled to make decisions, because the consequences really are huge. And you usually don't have long to decide what you want to do. :clap:

It may be strange to understand without playing it, but the actions scenes are among the most intense I've played.

I had my brother staying with me for a while and the PS3 was his. I usually play the 360. He's gone now and I admit I only bought a PS3 with Heavy Rain in mind. Although I've been happy to discovered Uncharted 2. Lighthearted, fun and kick-ass.
