Poll: What should i get?

[Goldeneye103X2]

I know i did something similar before, but this time its about the games. Also, dont just jump in and select metal gear solid 4. Look at reviews, think about the pros and cons and then tell me.
Thanks

Also, im hoping that the escapist wont lock this thread like they always do.

What console are these for, and what types of games are you interested in?

They are all for PS3. Exclusives. I basically like action games and things with a lot of action in them basically.

Metal Gear's Confusing and alot of Cinematics but what it lacks it makes up for in actual gameplay.
From what I've seen of Motorstorm its just more of the same.
And Resistance 2 is nothing special either.

So youre saying get valkyria chronicles?

 

[Hobo Of Hell]

Oops I didnt even see it on the Poll...
erm I'm not too sure about Valkyria, I lack the funding and time to give it a try having bought Left 4 Dead (awesomenessss).
It looks abit odd I'd deffinately rent it or something before buying it.

If you played the other Metal Gear Solids then go for the fourth one. Otherwise you may be extremely lost in the overly complex story that stopped making sense 2 games ago. But otherwise the game is a very good choice.

Resistance 2

I wouldn't go with MGS4, I just did not like that game

And I'm not much of an RPG or Racing game fan, so that knocks those two of the list

So, yeah, Resistance 2 definitely

 

[fix-the-spade]

Depends, if you enjoy mediocre predictability then Pacific Rift or Resistance.

No idea about Valkyria, haven't played it.

Metal Gear 4 it is then.

 

[Stringytank]

Not having a PS3, but with a friend who has a PS3, I'd tell you either Resistance 2 or MGS4

 

[Ace of Spades]

If you're into action, then MGS4 will bore you out of your skull. So many cutscenes...

 

[NeedAUserName]

I liked MGS4, but I stopped playing as the cutscenes annoyed me too much.
I didn't like Motorstorm, (I was a terrible at it)
I liked Resistance, and will probably get Resistance 2
Valkyria Chronicles, looks awful

 

[NeedAUserName]

I hope none of you guys start a thread with the title "All games are boring and unoriginal nowadays".

All games aren't boring and unoriginal. Just Valkyria, it looks like Advanced Wars.

 

[Vlane]

If you haven't played any Metal Gear then don't buy MGS 4. You will probably hate it.

Get Resistance 2. I heard it's pretty good and I will buy it this weekend.

 

[Galletea]

Ordinarily I'd jump in there with the 'MGS4 it's awesome'. However it would help if you've played the others as then you'd know what to expect. And you need to be able to devote some time to it, or you will probably end up getting bored of the cutscenes.
It is still my recommendation, because it is awesome.

 

[irishdelinquent]

Honestly, from what I've seen, I'm really excited about Valkyria Chronicles. I'm normally against games with an overtly Japanese style, but this one just looks so stylish. Also, it looks like they actually managed to hybrid the overhead strategy and FPS styles of gameplay well. Now the game will probably be limited in terms of replay value, but out of the four you listed, that's the one I would want to try the most.

He still has the Metal Gear Solid Database as a free add-on for that.

That could help. That series needs that add-on.

 

[Hobo Of Hell]

I'm not too sure about Valkyria, I lack the funding and time to give it a try. It looks a bit odd.

I hope none of you guys start a thread with the title "All games are boring and unoriginal nowadays".

You pretty much cut my quote up there to appear very synical of Valkyria I was merely saying I'm not sure about it and that Goldeneye should try it out before buying it. I'm all for new gaming styles and Valkyrias system does look intruiging just not something I'd be willing to fork alot of money over for something I may not like.

 

[Drift-Bus]

*new buttom*

none of the above

 

[Pumbli]

I say Resistance 2, would get it myself if my wallet wasn't feeling a bit light right now
