Be sure to check out the Retron 5 thread for further thoughts/discussions.
Do you mean vs none at all? I have caps but I think of them more as rubber stoppers. They're flexible/flimsy. Thanks for the link I searched but wasn't finding that for some reason. EDIT: Per the thread it looks like the old ones have no caps but the newer ones do, so that's good. To confirm mine also only takes a second if that to power up.
Regardless, that would be one other nitpick I had. I didn't have any major scuffs on the console or anything but just here and there in direct light you could see tiny scratches that were fairly consistent on the top. The build quality in general I thought was just okay.

Im having the same issue in lords of shaddow for the PS3 that i had with mirror of fate... game starts very slow, the combat functional but not great, the scrolls of fallen solider are... pretty much useless, witch is a shame because i think they could explain more of the world in them it would be somethin the soldier was carrying instead of "oh no, im dying, god hates us, he evil is strong, im surrounded, etc".
I can tell the combat will get better since im already unlocking new combos and a few moves but lords of shadows saga maybe a bit dissapoiting overall to me.

Stick with it. I don't think it ever gets as good as the first Lords, but it actually turns out pretty decent overall. I enjoyed it enough to beat, anyway.

Yes, that's the 2nd wave of units then. They added the caps and also put the faster boot feature on those.

I am playing the first one now
Is a decent game so far but like i said starts really slows until the combat gets really insteresting.

Rare Replay is pretty great. Most other compilations are made up of games from a select period in a developers history but RR runs the full 30 year gamut with Atic Atac and Viva Pinata sharing equal billing.
Elder Scrolls Online has consumed my gaming time of late. Considering how standoffish I was about the game before its launch, I'm actually really enjoying it. I've hit veteran level now which means I get to try the quests in the another alliance, in my case the Ebonheart Pact. First thing I did was ride my horse from Morrowind to the top of Skyrim. The feels.
I managed to nearly run myself dry of fuel after escaping from a combat in Starflight. I'm going to need to take some time out to see if I can score more from the couple of planets I know of with ruins; otherwise I'll have to do a big mineral blitz and buy fuel.
