hi all... i haven't been posting lately due to my busy life. THere's been so many new games but so little time . I'm thrilled with all these new games that are out such as MGS4, LBP, pure, motorstorm 2, Socom, fallout 3, dead space, farcry 2, SC IV and the list goes on. I feel like I'm missing out big time and is trying to find time to catch up! The statement about PS3 has no games is non existance now. What do you expect from a console that came out a year later but manage to keep the developers relationship in check. Tons of my co-workers got a PS3 just for MGS4 and they played the hell out of it. I've been hearing all these talks about the game but in the back of my mind was... yeah yeah stop it with the exaggeration and overhyping this game. Guess what... I started believing the hype and was blown away by the story, gameplay, graphics, and CGI. I swear I felt like I was part of the movie and it was one hell of a story. Developers should learn from Kojima because he's a genius. Games that have no story but only gameplay is more for the casual gamers. I'm only on act 2 so am taking my sweet time beating it and enjoying every second of it. Haters are missing out on this epic experience.

I received the public beta invite to R2 and immediately signed up the morning after. Had to put MGS4 on hold for now until the beta ends on 10/30/08. All day I was checking my email from my iphone. omg i signed up right away and submitted my infos for review. That was one quick response I got from Insomniac the next morning. lol so pathetic i was about to lose hope but to my suprise I received the email that I got accepted. The download was about 1 hr! 2 gb dang that is huge! To be honest, the graphic looks a bit last gen but I don't know why I couldn't put the controller down. I played 4 hrs straight then realized it was 3am! Was trigger happy with all the neat weapons. Went to bed and the next morning played some more! Too fun because of the huge # of players online and lag free. The ragdoll improved. The way the characters died is funny to watch just like when a chimera got blasted with a barrel its corp bounced off the wall and hit the ground hard. Just the little things in this game makes it enjoyable and worthwhile. I'm glad R2 pace is slowed down because I was sick of the fast pace from R1. I don't know how to explain it but seriously if I hate a game I would bash it to death. That's what happened to Virtual Fighter 4 and R1. R2 is actually the better game. And there were some that complained about the graphics. I guess there were high expectations from the sequal that it lead to some disappointment. I'm pretty sure the single player campaign will make up for that. Before the beta, I was reading threads after threads about how awesome R2 is.Yeah i have to agree with everybody... it is indeed awesome. Hopefully the graphic improved for the final release but I'll probably get it just for the addicting gameplay.
