Your joke was subtle and looked like hostility. I read it again and laughed.Cpt_Oblivious said:

Everything I said is still true.
This is creepily close to the exact reason I shant be getting it, despite (or maybe because of) the demo.
And this as well.Cpt_Oblivious said:
My husband and I often take a small LCD T.V. with us, along with our PS3 and or 360. If we're driving that is. Many hotel rooms don't have the right hookups.Cpt_Oblivious said:
It's a pain in the ass, but so worth it when you can't sleep in those strange beds and are up late at night.
I need to up my game for my next holiday then, a simple handheld just doesn't seem to cut it any more.meganmeave said:
Though to play anything in the car I'd need loads of extension cords...
We rented a cabin in the mountains, and I brought along the PS3 so I could play Heavy Rain at my leisure. (And got totally boned by the PSN snafu that erased trophies, but I digress.) It snowed for four days straight, so it was really nice to be able to just download a movie at night and watch some DVDs that we'd brought with us. I also read three books and played in the snow with the dog.Cpt_Oblivious said:
Me and my younger brother know exactly what you mean. Watching him play heavy rain was pretty sweet.
I find that I don't mind watching someone else play a game as long as their better at it than me. I get frustrated watching someone make mistakes and whatnot, especially if it's an RPG.

Some games are more theatrical experiences then they are game playing experiences. Makes sense, it was probably the same thing for me and Prototype. Just watching the silly carnage unravel would have been enough for me.

1) The Touhou games. I can NOT do bullet hell games for the life of me, but those swirling geometric patterns and the high-octane music keep me captivated.
2) I Wanna Be The Guy.
I was thinking about this myself a while back when I was playing Plants VS Zombies, actually. Not that the game was a graphical masterpiece or anything, but in the later stages I found myself with tunnel vision, concentrating on picking up sun and dropping in replacement plants that I rarely even noticed the zombies unless they had stomped their way halfway across the yard. Then, watching reviews of some games like Bayonetta and God Of War III here on the site, I thought "Wow, those graphics are pretty sweet. Too bad the gameplay looks to frantic to much notice it when playing." It is nice once in a while to sit back and watch someone else play so you can soak in all the great graphical details the developers spend all their time on. It's another reason I like RPG's a bit more, as generally you have more time to notice the sweet character models and background details while waiting to input your next command. But that's just me.
That's when you just make a polite little suggestion like "Hey, you know he's vulnerable to fire attacks, right?" Something not too intrusive so it doesn't feel like you're telling them how to play, but enough that you don't have to watch them fail the same fight 50 times in a row. Now if it's just bad player skill that's the problem, I don't know what to tell you.bismarck55 said:
to Ninjamedic: nope, i'm getting it to XD
OT: i won't be playing it, not cause of a lack of PS3, but because watching Kratos being pissed off for X number of hours dosen't interest me, even for a rental, GoW, for me, is a case where, it looks good, plays good and is fun, BUT for some reason i can't force myself past the fact the main character is an unlikeable asshole with no redeeming qualitys at all.
as far as 'spectacule fighters' go (thank you those who get that) i have Bayonetta and Devil May Cry 4 ( on the PS3 anyway XD)
