  1. If there is a manga thread then I apologies and you can feel free to move this post. I was wondering, has anyone hear ever read or heard of Red Prowling Devil? About a female pilot and her Mig-29 trying to avoid a life sentence for downing a civilian aircraft. It really flew under the radar and I only discovered its existence after finding an old Newtype magazine and paging through it.

  2. Does a free-world military shooter exist? I'm talking basically Fallout 3/NV or Skyrim with modern weaponry? Mercenaries 1 was close to what I'm looking for, but 2 was a disappointment.

    The single player campaigns of battlefield and modern warfare just frustrate me b/c they're basically rail shooters.

    I would say ARMA 2 is the closest you're going to get.

    Watched the Battlefield 4 trailer and wasn't impressed. There taking more cues from CoD in terms of ridiculous action sequences and didn't see many differences with what you got in BF3. If I knew DICE wasn't going to tamper with the game constantly to make it more balanced for players that constantly complain, I might be more interested in checking it out. I'll be sticking with BF3 for awhile I think.

  3. I do hope Kojima gets called out on the JP voice acting. Despite that, I'm still really interested in seeing what's in-store for this game and story. It's seems like Kojima is going all out with this one. Hopefully, they do what they did with MGS2 and just divide the game into two sections. I don't want to have to buy two separate games that are basically one.

  4. Even more confusing: Contrary to what Kojima said during the GDC panel today, Konami has confirmed with Joystiq that Ground Zeroes and Phantom Pain are indeed separate games from Metal Gear Solid V.

    Which I'm fairly certain means they are both a part of MGSV; however, they are sold as separate games.

    I really hope that isn't the case. After MGS2 however, I've learned to just wait and see since speculation is almost futile at this stage when dealing with Kojima and MGS.

    A 9 year coma? So it would take place in 1983 at the very earliest.

  5. Disappointed with Simcity... in every aspect.

    Everybody wants Simcity4 in 3D, nothing more... but no, let's go social, singleplayer is bad for business... well, f***.

    I don't care for that trend either in new games. Don't need everyone else to know what I'm doing or what my achievements in a game are personally. Although, I've never played any of the Simcity games. (Was more into Civilization)

    I only played the Bioshock demo but never played either of the full games of 1 or 2. I actually want to play Infinite though. Sadly, I don't have a PC powerful enough to handle it so I'll be opting for the console version when I finally get around to picking it up.

  6. I'm indeed looking forward to Bioshock Infinite but I'm going to hold off until the reviews are out.

    I'm going to try one of the Battlefield 3 map packs but I'm cut between Karkand (I had the basic BF3) and Armored Kill. Not sure really which is the better DLC. Karkand actually gives you additional guns along with maps while Armored Kill is just four large maps.

  7. I've been reading about people who've spent alot of money on the PS Store, had Playstation+ subscriptions and still didn't get the voucher and those who only joined in the last few months end up getting one. Sounds more like a random drawing to me which is a bit of a poke in the eye to those that didn't when they used the language "loyal" fans. Ohwell.

  8. I spent much of my childhood as a Sega kid and had an original Nintendo before that. (Till my parents sold it :( ) I didn't get the PS1 (still call it the PSX) until Xmas of 1998 along with FF7. I always had fun as a kid playing Road Rash and Sonic 2 but I found the library of games for the Playstation to be the most memorable for me in my teenage years. FF7, Metal Gear Solid, Legend of Dragoon, FF8, Syphon Filter, Ace Combat 3, Resident Evil 2 and Xenogears all made a big impression on me and still sit in my mind as some of the greatest games I've played, all coming from that same era. I got the money to pick up a PS2 in the early 2000s and was eagerly anticipating MGS2. Again, some outstanding games from this era console too in Ace Combat 4, Ico, MGS3, Shadow of the Colossus and ZOE 1 & 2.

    Surprisingly, I've been rather unimpressed with the library for the PS3 aside from games such as the Uncharted series and the throwback games like Mortal Kombat. Maybe my view has been spoiled by the sea of generic FPS titles that have overloaded the current selection of titles.
