 So all the preview/hands on videos I watched talked about how money and ammo is shared between the group, and in the manual it says the same thing. Playing last night all the money was shared but not the ammo - we looked through the options and couldn't find anything.

Is there something we were missing or was ammo sharing pulled out at the last minute or what?

Played up to level 10 last night, and it's a blast.

Exactly, same here, and in the end i wish that's how everyone else would view it. But, it's the internet so... Well, you know. "
I agree with this sentiment as well, but I'll be the first to admit that I'm a huge (see: HUGE) Schafer fanboy so anything under a 5/5 wasn't gonna please me anyways :)

If it was another company I'd say yes, but I'm too curious to see what Doublefine will do next if it wasn't  - so no.

No. It's the first GB review that I'm totally at odds with.
 
What he says in text / video is kinda accurate but I'm suprised none of the window dressing helped bump up the overall opinion of the game.
 
I've seen so many mediocre playing games get the extra bump to 4 or 5 stars because of esthetics I just can not understand how Brutal Legend's set pieces alone didn't up it's score - that's not even getting started on it's dialogue, cutscene direction, VO quality, and style. 
 
I think the score is low, not that it carries that much importance, but I do hope it doesn't scare anyone away from playing what was one of the best adventures I've played in a long time.

Based on the awesomeness of the previous Mario & Luigis I have a hard time believing it won't be the better of the two games.
 
Scribblenauts will be new and novel, but I don't believe that originality always wins over pure quality.

I think the graphics look superb on the 360 (havn't seen PS3 gameplay so I can't say for sure)
Graphics are superb on both.
Doesn't strike me as a decision maker/breaker for either.

I originally thought the PS3 version would be the way to go because of the "challenge rooms as the Joker" bonus.
 But after renting the 360 version for the sake of achievements being > than trophies, I realized how uninterested I was in the challenge rooms and how limited a bonus that really was.
 
Tho if you don't care about trophies or achievements and you are completely console neutral I guess why not get the added feature in the PS3 version?

Rested on the weekend and inspired to try stuff at work on Mondays.
Tuesday... still not crushed by the week's work.
Wednesday is listen to the Bombcast at work day, plus... four dollar lunch pints of Keith's at the bar next door.
Thursday is just not Friday yet.
 Friday is Friday :)
 
(*special thanks to the Bombcast and Fynn's (the bar) for making what should be the worst day of the week, Wednesday, the best)

Multiplayer FPSs in general.
Except for Battlefield 1942-43 for some reason.
 
I used to be good at RTSs, but it seems ever since I started playing games for "fun"  I just don't seem to have the patience or constitution for them anymore.
