I've got 980 and it is the intel I'm missing, just 5 of them but I've given up the cheevos so don't give a toss about getting them. Give 'em up, you'll love games being fun again.
And whatever happens, and however cheap do NOT get Condemned: Criminal Origins unless you are a sad sociopath who doesn't even realise there are games in the world that are fun to play.
I actually think the fact they've done all the stuff with the films and cartoons is wonderful, it's a move towards something 'bigger' a bit like the shows in GTA IV. But in contrast to that The Darkness isn't a very good game and I would honestly say don't waste any more time than necessary with it. There's a lot more fun out there. The only game I would want to play less is Condemned.
Honestly, don't pursue anything in this game, you'll be wasting your life. It's great that it has a stupid amount of films you can watch, but who in their right mind would watch To Kill a Mockingbird in a shopping trolley in a subway? Just look at the concept stuff on the net. I found a few of the hidden telephone message numbers and then found the full list on the net. Just dialling them into phones isn't honestly worth it because the novelty wears off after about 6 of them. There's a lot more fun things to be doing than playing this cack.
Agree with Zombie that Thief is probably the greatest sneak 'em up and has some awsome dialogue and can give you some amazing experiences, but that aside. Splinter Cell is really consistent, but dry and I think appeals to sociopaths more. MGS is borderline fucking annoying with the topdown shit where you can't see what's coming but has more than a bit of humour amongst the calamity. If you want an experience where you feel like you're in control then Splinter Cell is the way, but the 360 version of Double Agent isn't a patch on the xbox version. a quirky experience is more your bag then MGS is the way. In fact I'd say these games mirror the consoles pretty well. 360 = formulaic safe experiences, Sony = Occasional wacky shit that might not float your boat but enrichens your gaming experience overall.
Hayter and Ironside are great. Ironside is Legendary and I worship him,. but Hayter is like bottled Family Guy and it's him I'd like to get drunk with.
And I fucking love Splinter Cell, by the way. if the 360 version is all you have then fuck off, you're not in this topic.
What time on Monday and what timezone. I might feel more inclined to drag my wine soaked carcass out of the rotten mattress if it means all my epic skilly doinzzz is gettin me xp echo.
+1 for Mercenaries 2. I played it online with loads of unknown unmiked players but still it was effin magical destructive stupid joyful pointless fun. I was trying do all of the targets as live captures, which is really difficult if someone who joins you ingame without a mike doesn't realise. But when I started I'd get joined by people with staggering amounts of unlocks and cash who'd just call in two wow helicopters for us to go on a magnificenty bromantic destroy spree with. Then by the time I'd finished the game I'd do the same thing with people who'd just got it new. It cost me £5 inc p&p and why the fuck I sold it I don't know.
" I would have preferred three attachments had there not been an easy way to make a gun extremely useful. Imagine a Holographic Sight, a Silencer, and a Grenade Launcher. And now imagine it on an ACR, and fighting against it. That'd be very difficult to counter and I can see a lot of players probably using it. As it is, it works fine. It makes your Secondary more viable as well by being upgraded in different ways. "
Exactly - it's like imagining a UMP45 + silencer + grenade launcher. With great power comes great responsibility, but not in MW2 it doesn't, it just means noob tube hell. UMP45 + silencer + marathon is already a recipe for FYOU with somebody who's as crap at the game as me.
