This isnt really the best time to post this Edge, considering Microsoft has attack PSN (joke)

What?  I missed something here on that one…

And uh, this sounds 20 times more boring than just playing the game… wouldn't it be more fun to just figure out how to woop some ass in this?  I'm only level 8 and have some techniques that have me woopin on people with level 20-30… I'm not getting 1000 ADAM a round, but I am having more fun than if I just stare at a turret and hold the X button for hours on end…

Nope – totally a saber tooth tiger skull

The extra looking holes are because of the ears.  Almost all animal skulls have that, and here the positioning of the cat ears is where the extra eyes are for the chimera.  Sorry to bust the bubble guys.

Well – I have played and beat the game fully and here is my spoiler free opinion.  First, download the update, in NA its 225 MB, and fixes some issues in the beginning of the game. I personally had ZERO issues during the entire game.

The game starts off kinda slow, and lets you get adjusted to the controls.  It had me skeptical at first, as I found myself wishing there was a specific run command.  As I progressed I realized its uneccesary, when you need to run, you will run.  If you could all the time I think you would look over a lot of environmental details that are important (as well as quite a few that are just kinda there).  After a few scenes the story picks up, and quickly becomes an intriguing mystery full of rich characters who all may or may not be the killer you are hunting.  It really kept me guessing the whole time, and I just found that I couldn't put it down without finishing it – I just needed to solve this game.  If you want a deep intense story line full of emotional moments as well as action packed scenes, look no further.  If you're like me, and are skeptical about the control scheme and actual gameplay, then play for at least one hour.  By then you should know whether you want to find the killer, or if you want to go back to the mindless shooter games that plague the industry.  Its really difficult to describe this any further without spoiling it.  The game should take about 10-12 hours to complete, so @Leiran – while you should absolutely pick it up and try it, I don't think it will keep you occupied for several months.  There is definitely some replayability here – you can see a chapter list in the main menu, and after beating it I was still missing many chapters, and within each of them there are many choices that effect not only the outcome of that particular situation, but future ones, and its often times hard to tell how they will until you get to it.

On a graphical note – clearly this game shines in that department.  The facial detail is simply amazing, along with many of the emotions depicted by the characters.  It is far from perfect however – any scenes where the characters touch each other (not fighting, but a hug or pat on the back, etc.) look kind of hokey – they are supposed to be touching each other but their hands are actually floating an inch away, or something to that effect.  Its not a big deal, this still is hands down one of the best looking games out there, and certainly shows what potential there is for improvement in the future.

In conclusion – JUST TRY IT.  And keep in mind, this is definitely intended for the mature audience, not just because you see some digital boobs, but because of the riveting story line and incredibly dramatic and tragic sequences through out it.

thats one hell of an arrow symbol.  To reclarify though – all security devices require a shock to hack.  All vending devices do not.  An easy way to tell is if you can take a picture with the research camera, indicating that the device counts as an enemy.  Also, once the device has been hacked, you will no longer be able to take pictures.  That auto hack feature is also a bonus for the flying sentries, but you will not acquire it for the cameras – you only get slowed down fluid while hack them as a bonus.

No.

lol Ninja's post has a -10!! LOL!! 

anywho,  I'm looking forward to that DLC, i really love this game! 

I have been playing the multiplayer almost non-stop since i beat single-player. I knew this game would be good, but it really impressed me so much! Really wasn't expecting much from MP, but it is excellent! So much fun! And the SP was really freaking amazing! 

A fantastic game. Get it.

I've gotten some really mixed reviews on the MP… I'm going to try it tonight when I get home, if I like it I'm hitting you up for some rounds.

hmm – is it for all games or just fifa and uncharted?  My friend has an older HDTV where the input will only recieve the video signal for his sound.  As a result we have to use AV cables for the audio only, and set the output of the PS3 for sound to AV, and then make sure the tv is set to recieve sound through that while on the HD signal for video.  Its goofy.  You could try doing the audio video reset when starting the ps3 (press and hold power on until it beeps again) and seeing if it will auto detect for video and sound (it doesn't always work right, since it doesn't with my friend's set that I mentioned).
