Im gonna download that Costume Quest game demo Y2josh, it didn't look impressive to me though lol, i may be wrong about it, guess I'll find out in 20 minutes

I went home to start the download on my lunch break, but I thought it would be bigger than 325 mb so I started it while I ate and just turned my ps3 off when I came back to work. I'll start it back up in the morning. I've not seen any videos, but it sounds fun on paper and images.

I am wrong, i didn't think i would like it, but i LOVE this demo. I cant warrant a purchase at the moment, but as soon as this hits a sale im buying it. Its turned based battle rpg style too, gotta love that.

Glad to hear the demo changed your mind I can't wait to try it out. I wish I had more time to play video games

The soundtrack was awesome, Those metal guitar riffs were out of this world. Too bad i didn't like this demo at all, i found it boring(just my opinion) it looked nice though and the controls are decent.

For some reason the Fist of the North demo isn't on the Aus PSN, and I couldn't be bothered switching to my other profiles this evening, so perhaps I'll get toplay it later in the week.

As to whether you'll enjoy the game or not, that depends on whether you're a warriors fan or not, I assume. I am, so I expect to enjoy this game.

Also picked up White Knight Chronicles. Granted I have only played for a hour, but the poor reception the game got utter dumbfounds me early on. The game looks gorgeous, and the combat system is a nice throwback ti the Final Fantasy ATB days. I love traditional JRPGs, so I'm happy with the game so far.

Costume Quest is a Tim Schafer game. (Psychonaughts, Brutal Legend) its been in development for a long time and G4 had the guys on showing off the game several times. Looks really good and paying $15 for his crazy games on a smaller scale is maybe better. I didn't enjoy Brutal Legends at all.

MGS4 continues to be flat out awesome. The way the story lines are finally connecting is fantastic and the long cut scenes are great aswell. Raiden is a complete bad a$$!

HAHAHA Costume Quest is great. Especially Lady Liberty's special attack

HOLY CRAP, ive got two videos to show you guys ---- this is a video of someone beating demon souls in 58 MINUTES http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/20/demons-soul-speed-run-video/ and this is a video of LB2 beta where someone made a PORTAL LEVEL --------- http://www.joystiq.com/2010/10/20/hey-you-got-portal-in-my-li...

That guy makes it look easy, too. I'm actually a bit disappointed.

@Slappy: Alundra is top-down action, kinda like old-school Zelda but directly inspired by the Genesis game Landstalker. It's not isometric like that game, though, which is doubtlessly for the best. It's a great game, and I would highly recommend it to pretty much any Zelda fan/action RPG fan.

@Mickey.... Dont be, because its not and you cant simply run through it like that without prob 200+ hours of knowing every inch of the game. The game is brutally hard and I still havent beaten it, I was close before upgrading my PS3 and lost my gamesave

@Stuff.... cool, I dont know how much I would like it as Im literally burnt on the Zelda games, I still havent finished 3D Dot Game Heroes. Thanks for the info though, it does sound like its worth the $6.

OH... so I had this idea today. The PSone Classic Japan Imports are rolling in quite frequently. Maybe we will finally see the release of Policenauts in the US as there is a English Patch but we never got the game. Maybe its possible!

Agreed. After watching some videos from the BETA; your statement is pretty much true.
I've seen people make a game based on that game on PSN Flower and it looks amazing! I've seen people make pacman, RPGs, fighters, and even an FPS! Even the costumes are better! Theres one that turns your whole body into a bubbly green liquid and another where you have a TV screen head that shows transparent TV "Snow".
Boy I can't wait.

Thank G-d! I was so worried when I heard the allusions to Landstalker! Isometric view = my kryptonite. I simply can't handle it.

I honestly dont know what up with me and Assassins Creed. I literally should love the game, Ive tried multiple times to play the first game, tried and tried, but I cant get into it.

I hate Assassin's Creed

@Odd: I should be on late night sometime Saturday night, if you're on maybe we can hit up some Resistance 2.

Costume Quest is cute, but a little too fetch quest orientated to be brilliant.

Still, love the graphical style. Huge props for that.

@slap - not just you...one of the many games I played and said "Man I just must hate open-world games cause I just can't get into this at all"

then I played Infamous

@Waltz - Costume Quest looked almost exactly like that to me (fetch-fest). I also read that you can't manual save...I tend not to like that structure too much.

I'm loving the look of LBP2...might have to pick that up and wow the world with some platforming Seriously--from a customizability standpoint, I think I could crank out a pretty legit little Metroidvania/puzzler style thing without too monumental an effort.

So I beat Castlevania Lords of Shadow. SO GOOD! Really, really enjoyed it. After having played all God of Wars, Bayonetta, Darksiders, etc. it's my favorite of all of the above. Never played Dante's Inferno, but heard it controlled/played like a poor man's God of War with less total content...so I doubt that would disuade my opinion. But yeah--stellar game with an incredibly deep, fun to use combat system, and not nearly as based around downtime between attacks (ohai God of War!) I'll probably play back through the levels again on Paladin difficulty...don't want to be done with this experience yet

@Roopa.... Metal Gear Solid 4 has cutscenes over 45min long, and many many of them over 30 min long and I have officially put this game as the best game Ive ever played over Bioshock, didnt think that would ever happen. Actually its the open world structure of the game. I just dont like open world games, I barely finished Infamous, still havent finished one GTA game, etc.

My patience with games has been wearing thin lately. I love indy games and limitations there are usually what I love, but when Im playing Wii, PS3, etc and a game is limited or has lots of go here do this to make the game longer,etc. Im done! I stopped Red Dead Redemption like 30 min after firing up the game, I got maybe 6 hours into Metroid Other M and said screw it with the ridicilous control scheme, there are too many absolutely fantastic games to play! That is why my PS3 collection is pretty much down to AAA titles, Ill grab the low budget games on the cheap and blow through them as always but Im sticking to big budget games for $60 purchases from here on out.

Must be the sand box aspects about AC is the reason why I <3 that one so much. It did start to get repetitive towards the end though.

Just picked up a copy of Madden 06 and Killzone 2 at a local YS for only 20 bucks. I soooo can't wait to finally get my PS3 someday.

Edit: whoops its 07 not 06.....
