PS3 Price Drop

Nice to hear that you've gotten a PS3 as well now, Demon.

I also am not wildly excited about Heavenly Sword. It seems allright enough I guess, but according to reviews it is as you say all about fighting hordes of enemies, all the time. There's no exploring or puzzlesolving at all. Just kill a bunch of enemies, walk to next area and kill another bunch of enemies. That said it does look great at doing that, but I worry that it'll just be tedious even when knowing how short it is.

About seeing when clan buddies are onlin in Resistance, if you have them in your PSN buddy-list you can always see if they're online (and what they're playing) there. Otherwise, there is a clan-page in the game which shows if members are playing or not, and lets you form 'parties' to play in. When playing online, the game simply takes your stats and try to put you in games with people of similar skill. So you don't normally pick the games yourself, but can narrow it down to gametype, level and so on. The party function is to make sure that you and your friends aren't separated and always play together using this system. Like toomanymikes I haven't played it in a long while either though. But it is fun, you have something to look forward to there.

About Folklore, there is a demo available for download isn't there? At least there was. To be honest, I wasn't terribly impressed by it. But then again I'm not that into RPGs, though I do like the genre. And it is the first one for PS3 so I've preordered it anyway.

If your're going to get any of the downloadable games, get Stardust. The others are all worth their low price too, but are much more forgettable games. Stardust is definitely all about quick reflexes and accurate shooting, and you are going to suck horribly at it to start with. It's one of those games that you just get better at if you keep at it, but always stay very challenging and is amazing fun in my opinion.

Yeah, Heavenly Sword isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea. If you liked the mindless hack and slash of Dynasty Warriors, chances are you'll like Heavenly Sword - otherwise, steer clear. Supposedly, the storyline (though short) is very well crafted and wonderfully presented though.

So can you post your PSN IDs here?

Maybe create a pinned thread in the Next Gen Gaming forum called PS3 game IDs and then everyone can post a list of the gaming IDs for the games they play?
