    Its alright man, i'm sure your generally pretty occupied with college and what not. Uncharted 2 is a fantastic game. There were a few frustrating moments for me but no game is perfect. What people say about that games visuals is 100% spot on. Its one gorgeous looking game. I've been pacing myself with the game beating it over a number of days. I'm currently up to the 2nd last ...

Am i being over indulgent?
Added by Manachild on Jan. 28, 2009

Recently i won a TomTom XL Traffic In-car sat nav, and since i have no use for it, sold it for a good amount of money on ebay.
So with this extra money to burn and SFIV's release looming in the not so distant future, i started looking at arcade sticks.
I've been looking through play-asia and a crazy part of me wants to buy this one:



























I've been nerding out about it for months, wanting to get one, but haven't had the money to do so until now.
However, given the fact that this stick costs $129 USD for me to import to australia + postage, am i being too rash?
Keep in mind that EB games in australia are not offering the SFIV sticks or pads at all. So i feel i need (ok want... yeah yeah), something.
Does anyone have any opinion's on good alternative sticks along the lines of this one, or perhaps you have had experiences with this particular stick and can provide some insight.
I just didn't want to get something cheap like a EX2/3 or a FS3, i wanted to make a good investment on this.

Anyway i'll stop rambling.
Thoughts?

Fear 2 Demo Hands on and Performance Report..
Added by Manachild on Jan. 23, 2009

So the fear 2 demo came out today in australia on both xbox live and the playstation store. The demo weighs in at about 689mb for the PS3 version and approximately 750 for the 360 version.
I played through both versions twice to see the difference in both performance and graphics.
The 360 version had better antialiasing and sharper textures, but it wasnt a huge huge difference to me unless i was standing still looking around, going out of my way to spot a difference.
The framerate however is where the 360 pulls out ahead however... 
Both versions of the game have the occasional momentary stutter (presumably whenever it creates an auto save for checkpoints), and both versions occasionally have slow downs, but the 360's were noticably less pronounced than the PS3 ones.
This was mostly apparent in the mech piloting section at the end of the demo, where the ps3 version was a tad choppy in parts. That all said tho, it is not at all game breaking for the ps3 version. Having played through Condemned 2 (monoliths previous game) on the ps3, and hearing about how bad the first fear game was on ps3, i can confidently say that Fear 2 is the best optimisation job monolith has done on ps3 so far.
Based on the demo If you have both systems i'd recommend getting the 360 version for the better frame rate and slightly better graphics. But if you only own a ps3, there is nothing gravely wrong with the performance at all. It was perfectly playable and the drop in framerate was no where near breaking to my enjoyment of the demo.

I'm told by @waybright that Far Cry is now available on Netflix streaming. Regardless of what I might've said in TANG, do not watch Far Cry!

wishes the Tekken 6 fight stick bundle on sale on Amazon right now was for the PS3 version. She's really been hankering for some USB fight stick action.
