Just buy a game from gamestop, beat it or try it out, take it back within the 7 days, then get a new one :D

I tend to buy things carefully and then hold on to them. I tried Folklore out long enough to make sure it worked and that I was probably going to enjoy it. Now it joins the massive queue.

This is why I don't have a PS3. I only played about half of God of War but I dug it enough so God of War 3 might be cool but I see you shot that down already. Is Lost Planet 2 going to get a PS3 release? You might like that if so.

I didn't care for the LP1 demo on PC. I've seen a play through of the demo for LP2. It looks nice, but if I play it, it would be on PC. FPS and 3PS I'd rather play with a mouse/KB and where it will look better.

I have gotten a decent amount of suggestions to hold me though. I appreciate all the input.

Demon's Soul? That is a helluva game. If your a person who really gets off on PC games then your never going to like any home consoles really. I have never met anyone who has. MGS4 is a great game as well. I play a little bit of everything from the show 09, sf4, cod, disgaea 3, valkyria chronicles, and about 30 other titles I have for the system.

I forgot to mention Devil May Cry 4 and Ninja Gaiden Sigma.... arguably one of the most difficult games to come out in a long time.

You could download Final Fantasy 7 for around $10. Its worth it.

Well, beat Infamous as good at 4:45 this morning. That last fight was a PITA and I mis-guessed the twist at the end, but it was a fun ride. I'm still missing a few stunts and 5 rassa-frassin shards to get the complete 350. I'll probably tinker and try to finish these off then have a go through as evil after a break.

Those damn shards. I had 349, even after following a guide, and I nearly pulled my hair out. Luckily, I found the last one about 30 minutes later, but still.

Also, as for those stunts, there was one stunt that involves having 3 guys fall to their doom at the same time - this can only, as far as I know, be done on one of the first few missions. If you miss doing it there, prepare to start a new game. Redonkulous.

Still, great game. =P

I'm pretty sure I've done some stunts that were past whatever number I was on earlier in the game, only to be held up by a lower one I hadn't done yet. But yeah, since I've reclaimed all the territory, might be easier do so some in the evil game. I thought I was going to be good on the shards. I had 6 left when I did the end battle. I found 1 shard on a broken pier I had missed, then I finally got a goon knockdown with a hidden package mission in the last bit of territory by the blast pit. The package was 5 shards, but it didn't count toward my total. :? I wonder if the game messed up. :(
