+Audioboxer Subscriber² Posted November 25, 2009 Author Subscriber² Share Posted November 25, 2009 Trying to get my parents to get the Gamestop bundle so I get this free with my Slim. Probably not happen though as there's more chance of them getting a PS3 at Best Buy/Walmart than having to drive around the few smaller Gamestops in the area. I doubt they're getting up at 8am Friday anyway, they arrive the Thursday night. Would rather they just get a Slim with some free content on Black Friday than get nothing at all :p (as in a vanilla PS3 at $299) I have no idea how crazy you Americans go on Black Friday, well I do a bit, but I dunno if I should expect Slims selling out everywhere just due to the hype surrounding Black Friday and Americans willingness to throw money about for this day. I'll probably try get Best Buy bundle, LBP GOTY edition would be nice for the DLC, and I obviously don't have Ratchet. Wallmart Bundle isn't much use, I have inFamous/Batman and I've seen The Dark Knight. Some resale value I guess, but I'd rather just get some new games I don't have.

gigapixels Veteran Posted November 26, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 26, 2009 I will be picking this up soon. Definitely NOT tomorrow, but soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LingeringSoul Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Picked this up today from HMV of all places. It was the standard $39.99 (CDN), which is a pretty good price for a game I haven't played yet (GoW2) and a game I wouldn't mind playing again (GoW1).

soniqstylz Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 (edited) Just so you guys know, my TV shows this playing @ 1080p. Only 3 more trophies for double-plat. After having beaten both, I agree w/ DM that GoW2 is the better overall game, combat is better, set pieces and scope are flat-out amazing, but GoW has the better story due to the background on Kratos and the "twist" at the end of GoW2 is hinted at during GoW, so it wasn't that much of a twist. Also noticed something, there seems to be some influences especially on platforming puzzles, on Uncharted. Which is interesting to me, because most everything else (betrayal story, combat and platforming mechanics, box puzzles) that seems to be influenced by Soul Reaver, which was written and directed by the director of Uncharted.

KoL Veteran Posted November 28, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 28, 2009 Finished GoW, now only need the speed run for Platinum :D Damn challenge of the Gods ****ed me off, specially the last 3. Tip for anyone playing CotG. L1+X works great in Challenge #10. @ soniq: Did you finish the speed run in the first one? How long it took you?

Tip for anyone playing CotG. L1+X works great in Challenge #10.@ soniq: Did you finish the speed run in the first one? How long it took you? Started the speedrun last night, I'm about 45 minutes in, and about to save the Oracle. I'm a bit slow at it, from other speedruns I've read about, people have finished the game in under 3 hours. I'm using the Tycoonius costume, gives you 2x damage and 4x experience, so I'm rediculously overpowered, making battles shorter/faster/easier. I only need that, and Challenge of the Titans for double plat. For the Eye Sore trophy (cyclops eyes), play the first Challenge of the Titans, save, exit to challege selection, then replay it. You can't get all 20 during playthrough. Most of the Challenge of the Gods wasn't terrible, it's just that you can't save and exit. I kept having to pause and take breaks during #10.

KoL Veteran Posted November 29, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 29, 2009 Cool, using Tycoonius. Easy to max the blades. I was around that time when I was saving the Oracle too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is so overpowered it's funny. I got the army of Hades, and had enough orbs left over from maxing everything else, that I maxed that out immediately, and still had 7,777 orbs left over, and I haven't even been to the Muse Keys room yet. Oh, and I'm at 2:49:45, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoL Veteran Posted November 29, 2009 Veteran Share Posted November 29, 2009 I finished it at 3:10. I died a few times because I thought I was invincible lol. Got all Gorgon Eyes but not the Feathers, I missed 3 but I wasn't looking for all. I rarely used magic. Now to play God of War 2. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
