Is there an app that lets you use your phone as a keyboard for PSN/XBL? If not there should be that would be awesome.

Only episode 6 left to finish on Alan Wake. That's going to have to wait until tommorow.

is that game any good?

It took me almost the entire first episode to get into it, but once I did, I didn't really want to stop. The gameplay is very different then most of the games and once you get used to the aiming it becomes a lot more fun and less frustrating. The story is trippy and confusing a lot of the times, but I think I got the jist of the storyline without having to look anything up yet. I haven't played the DLC yet, but hear its the real ending to the game. Overall though, I really enjoyed the game.

Agreed. The whole 1st episode I was having a pretty 'meh' feeling. But the end of that 1st episode pulled me right in.

Saw some chat about the new spider-man game and a couple alternate costumes have been released:

 

2007 Spider-Man 3 black suit

New Scarlet Spider (hell fucking yes.)

Negative Zone Spidey

 

[Buzzman]

I think those costumes look like shit.

Meh. The negative zone one looks lame and the black suit one from SM3 is nothing new, but I think the Scarlet Spider one is pretty damn sick. I was hoping there'd be a Scarlet Spider one included. There's supposed to be 10 alternate costumes total.

The Negative Zone and SM3 suits look identical.

Guess this means I gotta finish off inFamous2 this week :yep:

 

[wingsfan77]

I started Infamous 2 again a few weeks ago, and the game bumped me up to 'hard' difficulty pretty quickly.....definitely a difference haha, those militia guys are much more accurate now.

I actually beat both inFamous games on Hard. Only a few games I've ever beaten on Hard.

New Scarlet Spider is still the only one I really want to unlock and use.

 

[Buzzman]

Honest Game Reviews are the Best Game Reviews

If a retailer reviewed the games they were selling, would you trust them? Probably not, but then, most retailers aren't like Australia's JB Hi-Fi.

Known here as a humongous, cut-price seller of anything that can turn on or be put in something that turns on, many JB managers hire students or other forms of young and dispirited malcontents to write (and often illustrate) in-store reviews and promos for their products.

They've got a reputation as sometimes being refreshingly honest and/or funny. Like these (even if most seem to have been done by the same guy).
