Well aren't you guys often worse of than us Europeans? Anyway ordered it from like 3 different places and still haven't seen sight of it so canceled two of them, one that keep saying they're waiting to get it in stock and one where I haven't heard from if I can buy it or not. So here's to hoping I get the game soon.Originally Posted by Buffalobiian

I thought you guys were PAL too. Don't you coincide with European release dates? Or do those pesky review boards interfere with your releases?
Even if you are Region 4 rather than 2 or 1, you're still PAL, so it shouldn't matter.
You are, since Australia uses PAL. It's your own fault for adopting the superior format ;/.
That's right, Australia uses PAL, we generally coincide with European release dates, and from what I've read, there is none scheduled for this game.
If it's not Isuzu-chan Mii~
I've been playing beat 'em ups all day. I started with double dragon for NES. I'm currently on Comix Zone for Genesis (That's Mega Drive to you Pal and NTSC-J folks).

Ok finally got my ex of Blazblue if it weren't for the fact that I've slept like crap these last couple of days I'd be super excited... well that and the fact that my friend borrowed my PS3 so I can't play it

I've finished the main storyline Star Ocean 4Cant say I've completed all the quests yet.
Compared to Lost Odyssey, Star Ocean 4 is abit lacking in the story execution and overall ambience. However, the gameplay in SO4 is abit more unique (to me) due to the chain combos, blindside, etc.
As for the characters, I have to say they are quite different from one another, "kay"? :P

Right now I'm kicking it old school with Final Fantasy 6. I've owned the game for over 11 years and I've decided I should finally beat it.
I've got my hands on Guitar Hero Metallica!

Playing Splinter Cell Double Agent on the X360. It's different from the storyline of the Xbox version I remember from before. Sadly, they seem to have messed with the game mechanics a bit. There's a snow and ice level early on that seems to not rely on the shadows and stealth elements at all. Basically you have to sneak from cover to cover. Any line of sight enemy sighting and you're toast.
It's a very frustrating game overall, and they added a difficult element with the map, as the image becomes outdated and fuzzy as you move, then it takes a second to remap your surroundings once you're still. Those seconds are all it takes for an enemy to move into position to see you.
I hope the game gets more stealth driven, as I am currently on a map that requires you to kill everyone.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Yeah the reworked mechanics made it so that the xbox version was far superior, plus the xbox version has true coop like Chaos Theory. The xbox version was made by Ubisoft montreal and the "current-gen" versions by Ubisoft Shanghai.
Pretty much every map is in broad daylight, so you don't have the goggles either later on.
Though in the final level, everything goes dark again and for a few moments you will get that awesome splinter cell gameplay again.
So is there any benefit (or is it even possible) to accomplish most missions without having to kill a bunch of enemies? As you know, the point of Splinter Cell games is to walk through the entire game without being seen or having your presence detected. I think they're heading away from this type of gameplay in favor of body counts, as the future title SC:Conviction is meant to be played as a shoot-em up instead of a stealth sneaker.
“For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”
Uhm, I think there is a single achievement for completing a mission undetected, that's about it.
And no Conviction can be played either way you want, you also can't perform quick kills if you don't use stealth, so even if you go on assault you will need to do some stealth.
I got the call from "Ashley" at GameStop last night saying that my copy of King of Fighters XII would be in this afternoon. I went and picked up my copy a while ago and I've been enjoying it so far. I'm currently playing thru as Terry, Andy, and Joe the original Fatal Fury: King of Fighters team.
I'm so glad that they let you install the game to the PS3's hard drive, you could not with BlazBlue. The loading times in BlazBlue is the only gripe I had against the game. There's a theme on the disc. You will see it in the game section of the XMB. That was an unexpected nice little bonus.
Has anyone heard about this KOF movie? They have Maggie Q playing Mai.She doesn't have the breasts for it. She would have been better as Vice.

Edit: I also got a code for the GameStop exclusive Madden NFL 10 demo with four 5 min quarters between the Steelers and Cardinals. I really don't want to play the game before I get the full version, so if you own a PS3 and want the code let me know.

Is Ashley hot?

I'll have to wait till next week, too bad you got the PS3 version, seems we won't be playing.
Anyway, move over SF4 ( dissapointing POS ).
Sadly, it's just a pre-recorded voice message.
Edit: Athena is f'n awesome. Psycho Ball!

I completely agree on this one. While it looks great, my friends and I stopped playing it only a few weeks after I bought it. Even an arcade stick wasn't enough to save it.
SFIV is no SFII:Turbo.
The biggest problem is the controls are too demanding of precision. With a proper d-pad (360 with a hollowed-out ring, dual shock, etc) or even an arcade stick with a proper Sanwa JLF stick, the game is too unforgiving on input. It becomes difficult to even pull off the occasional basic combo. I'm not going to deny that I am not that good at SFIV (except with Cammy) but it is a little ridiculous how often you are not able to perform a special move on the first try.
The thing that really killed it for me was how long it took them to update Online versus matches with a blind character select screen. Waiting 20 seconds to start a match so the douchebag on the other end will actually pick a character sucks. It turned me off from the whole online experience. At a real arcade, people would at the very least give you a huge glare or call you on that kind of crap. For Capcom to not realize how often people pulled that shit since the current-gen consoles incorporated online matches is embarrassing. It's been a little over 3 years since people started doing that in Dead or Alive 4, and about 3 years since people have been doing it on Street Fighter II for XBLA. Blind selection should have been in there on release.
There really wasn't any significant improvement over SFII Remix, and in fact, I think a lot of the balancing got thrown off.
BlazBlue has already gotten so much more playtime, and there are fewer characters. It has none of the problems I mentioned above, and Arc System Works did a surprisingly amazing job on optimizing the analog sticks. I actually prefer to use the controller over my arcade stick. The story mode was a pleasant surprise too. There's a more fleshed out world and more developed characters in the debut title than there has been in several of the Street Fighter games combined. For a company that went from, "I hate baldies!" to the depth that BlazBlue has is kind of staggering. People might still play cheap online, but that's just a matter of skill in the end.
I discover new ways to use Rachel and her Silphie Drive every day
The only complaint I have is the same problem I've had with all of Arc System's games. An option in Training mode that goes through the moves like DoA, Virtua Fighter, or SFIV would be nice. That and Litchi's quick specials are horribly mapped. They picked the two worst of her super attacks, and only one of her useful specials. It was so bad I had to switch to Rachel and Taokaka.
I think I will wait for a few full reviews before I pick up KoF XII.
