They showed gameplay during the sony e3 press conf. so that should give you a good taste of gameplay.

I know exactly what you are referring to and that is what I'm talking about. The way those events took place was incredibly scripted and I have concerns about how that would be extrapolated out into a larger game. Some of the stuff that happened was so focused and so specific, that I don't see how it would work.

It's Naughty Dog, The Last of Us is going to own.

I have had my PS3 for less than a year so my suggestions are of older games.

In no order. Prices from Amazon and they seem to go up or down a few dollars so price might me differnt when you look.

Mass Effect 2 $18

Batman Arkham Asylum (Game of the Year edition) $17

Little Big Planet (Game of the Year edition) $6

Bioshock $12

inFAMOUS $24

Borderlands $20

Resident Evil 5 $15

Red Dead Redemption $20

Uncharted 1 and 2 combo pack $40 (I know you said $30 and under but I highly recommend.)

Heavy Rain: Director's Cut $20

Enslaved Odyssey to The West $13

[Caddy]

I never implied it wouldn't be a good game. I just think it might be promising more than it can deliver.

Mass Effect 2, what would be the consequences of playing it without having played Mass Effect 1?

Also, how do Heavy Rain, Bioshock and Mass Effect play? Are they linear, mission to mission, or is there an element of freeplay? I like games like Skyrim and Red Dead where there's a whole world to do stuff in outside of the main storyline.

Here is my quote from a few pages back about Heavy Rain.

So lets say someone dies the story will adept and change based on that. They are a total of 5 diffrent endings that you will get and which one you get will depend on the choices you make.

The basic controll is very simple like you will move the trigger button or press x/o at the time you are suppose to. If you do your own research of the game be very very careful to avoid any spoilers

I played the demo, the fight was cool, but I don't think the game is for me, at least not right now. Looks like a gorgeous game that could really get good, but looking for something I can play at anytime and do random **** in. Like random dungeon raiding in Skyrim, shooting people in Red Dead, hell I even enjoyed just driving around in LA Noire.

I may put a little extra cash forward and pick up Saints Row III.

I highly recommend Mass effect 2, it's probably my favorite PS3 game I own.

It should come with a comic that you watch explaining what happened in Mass Effect 1. I'm not sure if it's all ready on the disk or if it will come with a download code since I got the whole game off PSN.

It does a really good job feeling in the blanks and you even get to make some choices that will carry over to your ME2 play through.

There is an element of freeplay with ME, but not on the same level as RDR.

As for Bioshock I don't actually own it, but keep hearing good things and you can get it cheap.

If that's the case I would recommend Kingdoms of Amalur Reckoning. You can probably knock out the main story in about 25-30 hours, but there is a TON of side missions.

It has got mixed reviews and seems people either loved it or hated it, but I for one loved it. There was a demo up on PSN, but I'm not sure if it still is.

The story isn't the greatest in the world and they went with more of a cartoon look than a realistic one, but the combat is a blast and is what kept bringing me back for more.

Edit:Forgot you said under $30 I think it's around $40.

Sounds like saints row 3 is a game u would love it's very over the top and Crazy. For example beating up people with a purple bat shaped like a male body part.

Even if u don't play mass effect 1 I'd still play the series u will be a little lost but nothing major and u will pick up on everything as time goes on. The comic doesn't come with used copy's

I played the second one, I loved it.

I have the 2nd one and liked the concept but didn't finish it. I just bought the 3rd one and while I havent played it I've watched friends play it for several hours and I can tell its much improved and on another level.

[georgiafan]

On Walking Dead EP2.

I liked it better then the first one as I walked around confused on where two go and what to do a little bit on it.

I cut the coach's leg off bc I didnt want to watch him die

I gave food to both kids, kenny and lilly. I wanted to keep the two main people happy and feedin the kids was the right thing to do.

I tried to talk the ranch guy out of shooting the crazy women bc I wanted to know more about her and how she got clem's hat.

Even though I hate Larry I tried to save him just bc I loved his character and I thought he was very funny. Did anyone save him or is it not possible?

I thought getting the food from the car was a no brainer and I was very surpirsed only 55% choose to do it

I don't think it's possible to save Larry, you either choose to try and save him or you kill him.

It's funny I really liked Kenny in EP1, but in my EP2 play through he was kind of a dick and we started to bump heads.

I was one of the 17% of people who murdered both of those assholes

I think I have what it takes to survive when the zombies come.

I agree 100% on you with Kenny he was my fav person on ep. 1 but not as much in the 2nd one. I really wanted Larry to make it bc he was funny with his getting mad and swearing all the time.

The only reason I didn't kill the 2nd brother was bc all of the crew was watching.

I just got an email invite to the Little Big Planet Karting beta, Sony's Mario Kart rip off.

I'm downloading now will give my thoughts once I get a chance to play it.

It's pretty sweet. I have really enjoyed the little bit I got to play of it so far.

I'm not sure I would drop $60 on it, but it's definitely going on my price drop watch list.

I have been looking for something to have on hand when my casual gamer friends/family come over and this should fit nicely.

Anyone that likes either LBP or Mario Kart should enjoy it.

I have a nostalgia boner. I will probably end up getting it even if it isn't good since it's Double Dragon and only $10.

[TheBoyWonder22]

Add me guys! theboywonder44 same as my Live GT. As of now all I have is MW3 (bundle pack) but if you guys make suggestions for good multiplayers, I will certainly look into it.

[Splat]

I rented UFC Undisputed 3 and I love and hate it at the same time.

I can hold my own when we are upright but my ground game is awful. I'm playing career and I do fine till I start facing guys ranked in the top 10 then everything falls apart.

Beating the hell out of someone for two rounds only to take one knock out shot to the chin or getting tapped out in the 3rd is frustrating as hell.

The worst part is that it takes so long to improve your skills so I end up being like a 72 overall fighting someone that is 87-92 overall...

I might check it out if it gets good reviews. I loved the original Double Dragon. Will Abobo be in it????
