the 1st island in inFamous

once you actually know what ur doing, ur going so fast it feels even smaller..

Wow, that is small. At this point would you say the game is even worth $20. I rather enjoyed Shattered Dimensions. I never played Edge of Time though.

What's interesting is that the idea for Meet the Pyro seems like it's actually based a post from 4chan a couple of years ago.

Ehhh, maybe for casual gamers, but as far as spider-man games go this is easily the best one available. So if you're a huge spidey fan this is your game.

whoa J.hen...maybe current gen, but Ultimate Spidey and Spider-Man 2 had better swinging mechanics, this game's web swinging is way too simplified...it feels like doing a 1 button combo in SFIV

its an enjoyable game and all, but judging by tiny manhattan and the lack of polish, this game[like most movie tie-ins] feels a lil rushed...

Here's hoping that Beenox's next spidey game takes Ult.'s gfx and SM2's webswinging n adds it to what they have here...


sidenote: I fuking hate the new suit design[racing stripe Ugh], so here's some easy ways to get alt. skins

 

SM3 Blk suit

BIG TIME suit

Blk Future Foundation suit

Negative Zone suit

Scarlet Spider Kaine suit

I have a problem playing Assassin's Creed for more than an hour at a time. The game gets mind numbing repetitive.

Trying to understand the story as a whole, first hand.

Just beat Alan Wake on Nightmare Difficulty and collected all the manuscripts. 100%ed that bitch. JIZZ

 

[Maynard]

im gonna be starting that one up in the next few days. KOA is starting to bore me with its repetitive mission struture. i got about 40 hours out of it so far and will try and just finish up the main quest. then its on to alan wake

 

[Buzzman]

BTW Alan Wake only took me 26 hours to 100%. My nightmare playthroguh was probably 5 hours top because I just lit a flare and avoided the bad guys whenever possible.

The Witcher is an interesting game. I'm a little surprised at the amount of women you can bed (I'm at three nearing the end of the first Chapter), and I'm not sure what to think of the trophy cards you get after each encounter. I still haven't found a way to get a silver sword though. I'm not sure if I'm not supposed to have one just yet or if I've simply looked in the wrong places. I'm not particularly fond of having to research both monsters and plants before you can cultivate their ingredients for alchemy purposes. Overall, I am having a good time playing it.

Doom and gloom of July is coming up time to catch up on some old games and some you never finished get that shit in before the big titles drop.

You should have a recipe for the silver sword in your inventory. It will tell you what materials you will need to make it. Once you get them find the blacksmith and he can craft the sword for you (and any other items you have recipes for).

Edit: Unless you are talking about the first game. In which case I know nothing.

I'm playing the first one, and for the most part, the monsters have been easy enough to dispatch with a steel sword. However, there are a few monsters that I can claim a bounty on that are hard as hell, and I don't have any recipes for oils to help out. I think I'm just going to move on in the story and hope I can come back once I get a silver sword.

I'll keep your post in mind whenever I get around to The Witcher 2.
