There's rumors one is in the works.Quote:

David Jaffe was quoted saying this...
Later in the year, they were doign research with fans to find out informationon the last two TW games, sounds like they wanted to improve on some aspects.Quote:
Because I am a TM junkie, I drooled over the first Twisted Metal. I remember in those days it was such a draw that you could go anywhere on the map. That and Warhawk really introduced open world for me so the thought of you being burned out and not making a PS3 version makes me sad. There is no reason for you to be sad.

We are trying to make a list of the issues/questions we want to address in the doc and we want to make sure we hit the things Twisted Metal fans want to know about. So: Not sure how many Twisted fans are reading this blog but if you are out there, let me know if you can help us out!
Yeah, Twisted Metal was one of the best things for the PS. Loved that game.
so agree. it was 50% of the reason I bought a PSX.Quote:

I can't even begin to estimate the number of hours we spent playing TM2.
I love that Paris level, with the French national anthem electric guitar shredding.
That level was great, but my favorite was probably Antarctica or Rooftops. Damn Hong Kong was good too.Quote:

I also hated the special weapon of the spectre car which could should missiles through walls. In any case, it felt really lame, but otherwise TM parts 1 & 2 were fantastic!

You never know when you're going to take a step and trigger a cut-scene (and thereby a checkpoint) and lose the opportunity FOREVER of investigating a certain area to pick up treasures, cash and ammo. This dumbs down the game for long time fans.
RE4 was so polished, it would be a massive disappointment if the follow-up disappointed there. So, yes, the controls are sharp. The graphics are sharp. The voice acting is good...but the game goes way beyond the trademark silliness to ensure we're still playing an RE game. At one point early in the game, Chris finds the key to a certain room and just as he's about to use it, a boss materializes behind him. Instead of using the key, opening and door and locking the boss on the other side and moving on....Chris runs down a branching corridor to fight the boss... :frustrated:
When the action becomes this fast-paced it ceases to be RE. It's not even scary. This isn't RE 5. This isn't RE 4.5. It's RE 3.5
:)Eh I don't know. We've had a bunch of classic resi games (5!)and part 4 was the first one to break the trend in favor of more action so I think the franchise could have sustained another action packed entry. Enter Resident Evil 5.Quote:

You must be more hardcore than me.:)
I don't think so, It's just less survival horror now and more action. That's fine if they want to do that, but call it something else. It's not a Resident Evil game and it's certainly not survival horror. There's no strategy involved when playing 5, other than you're playing with someone.Quote:

I'm getting close to finishing RE5, but I have some of the same complaints as duke. RE4 changed things up, and it worked extremely well. Resident Evil 5 seems to be attempting what RE4 did. The spot at the beginning was pretty awesome as you had to fight your way long enough for a helicopter to come in, other than that, it's pretty boring.
Although it finally had a scary part as you walked through the part with all the animals.
Big disappointment.
I'm at the boat part, and I doubt I'll play the game anymore.
Actually, I'll probably return it tonight to get credit for Sacred 2. I need some dungeon crawling action on the 360.
I'm going to keep it, but just because I've kept all my RE games. In fact, I really want to get my platinum trophy for it. So I have a lot more multiplayer to play.Quote:

I still haven't even finished "Okami". It's a great game, but perhaps the first time I've ever felt "this game is too damn long".
27 hours in and there are apparently several hours left to go.
Mass Effect is a great play. The money/store system is a bit broken but I loved exploring new worlds and the story is above par. I recommend you finish it for ME2. :)Quote:

You'll see so many similarities. The transport system is even named the same. I actually never finished KotOR or KotOR2. I'm in the middle of the first game. Still have it saved on my PC.Quote:
