I'd say Deadly Premonition is still worth checking out, since the PS3 and PC versions had framerate issues(though I believe this has been fixed on the PC). The game and story are a little different in the original release too, since you don't have the framing story that was put into the game for the Director's Cut.Stark wrote:I thought that might be the case.

Re: Summer Games Challenge 2014
Its all about Zoids Assault man. Actually, my 360 is used more for Perfect Dark XBLA than anything else. If they ported the Halos and Perfect Darks to Steam/Gog, I would sell my 360 that day.Ack wrote:I'd say Deadly Premonition is still worth checking out, since the PS3 and PC versions had framerate issues(though I believe this has been fixed on the PC).

Re: Summer Games Challenge 2014
as much as I love Deadly Premonition, I wouldn't advise anyone who already owns a PS3 and PC that they need to buy a 360 console just to play that specific version of the game.
Re: Summer Games Challenge 2014
Oh God no, I agree. But as I had a 360 at one point, I got Deadly Premonition for it. I no longer have the 360, but I still have Deadly Premonition.noiseredux wrote:as much as I love Deadly Premonition, I wouldn't advise anyone who already owns a PS3 and PC that they need to buy a 360 console just to play that specific version of the game.
Of course, I also have it on GOG...

Re: Summer Games Challenge 2014
The pawn shops in Charlotte sell the 4GB models for just under $80; so, I have considered picking one up. There are a few exclsuives (e.g., Alan Wake, Halo, Gears of War, etc.) that I wouldn't mind trying out, and there are a few compilations (e.g., Qubed, etc.) that are probably worth owning. I may pick one up at some point (especially now that the games are getting so cheap).Stark wrote:I thought that might be the case.

Alan Wake is great fun, I'd definitely recommend that one.prfsnl_gmr wrote:The pawn shops in Charlotte sell the 4GB models for just under $80; so, I have considered picking one up.

Re: Summer Games Challenge 2014
I used to be just like you prfsnl. Let me think, if you got a PS3 in 2013 then that puts you on track to get into PC stuff in 2015.
