In my country, you can either get the digital version of X game from Steam or any other digital download service for its regular US price, or you can buy it at a local shop for twice that amount.

Yeah, real hard decision there.

If the "Get out of here stalker" and "I said come in, don't stand there" guys aren't in it, I'm not interested.

Come on Konami, I'd like to be able to play this game before the end of the world gets here.

I've been trying out this Skyfire browser and the couple of Flash based videos I tried came out pretty laggy, so yeah it works, just not very well.

This was probably done so people will not confuse the sequel with that terrible first person shooter whose acronym is also MW2.

His first video is also hilarious.

Not to mention manual spawning for player infected during finales, it only took them about a year to copy what the modding community had already fixed a long time ago.

Not even a perfect PC version could save this terrible game from being terrible.

Been playing it on the iPod Touch for a while now, it's a more polished, fleshed out version of Crush the Castle. (Which is also good for a few laughs)

Before the advent of dos4gw, anything created by Origin was usually hellish to setup. I needed to have multiple choice config.sys and sutoexec.bat files depending on the game I wanted to run, loading anything other than a basic mouse driver had you running into low conventional memory messages.

The stock game's dogfighting isn't very well fleshed out but one of the game's strong points is the modding community, and there are many plugins that will enhance dogfighting quite a lot.

This Starcraft II is some serious business.

Wing Commander would be neat, Wing Commander 2 would be better.

especially when you engage a new "quest" and you realize you've just started another bossfight.

This was a problem with the first game too, you never knew what you were going to get into the first time you received a scoop. You go for it anyway and end up getting slaughtered by a boss because you were only carrying a pistol with one bullet in it or something.

The problem is intensified because all the bosses in both DR1 and 2 require you to know the "trick" behind beating them, usually stunning them by dodging a specific attack, taking advantage of an item in the immediate surrounding or attacking them in a very specific manner. And of course the game never really throws you any hints on what this weakness is so most players just end up helplessly getting their asses kicked until they either finally wise up on what they're supposed to be doing or exploit one of the many cheap tactics available.

Might as well just tell you now and save you the grief later: Make 2 painkillers (2 of the same type of alcohol in a blender), make a quickstep (2 milks at any blender), make knifed gloves (boxing gloves + bowie knife) and get the health 1 magazine (It's at a small kiosk after leaving the safe house), this is your basic boss killing equipment for when you don't know a boss' weakness, take the painkiller and quickstep right away after starting a boss fight and wail away with the knife gloves, take the second painkiller as soon as your health drops down to a dangerous level.

Thankfully, most of the boss fights you can simply walk away from and you won't be directly penalized plot-wise, I think only 3 of the boss fights in the game are 100% necessary to complete in order to get the best ending. Everything else you can start and walk away if you're not feeling ready for to it.

Bosses will always be the bane of most players when it comes to Capcom games it seems.

Add Derek Smart into this and we'll really have a party.

Same as a huge fan of heavy metal in general, I found the world to be quite interesting, and what I expected a world based on heavy metal to look like. Although the RTS elements of Stage battles were a turn off. I quite enjoyed the rest of the world. To say it sucked is going a bit too far. it wasn't the best game ever but it wasn't Superman 64.

Yup, they had the whole metal vibe down pat. I can also say the soundtrack was the most kick ass collection of tunes I've ever seen in any single video game.

For all its faults, I enjoyed Brutal Legend.

Only good things can come of this.

I'm confused... Is this the equivalent of faking your own death on the internet only to resurface a week later with a different user name?
