Yahtzee be hatin on dem old laydeez...and it was funny.

I only plan on playing this game twice: 1st time - Hard difficulty, PC only, buy regular RIGs 2nd time - Impossible, use all weapons (I'll try the best and ditch the rest), use the free DLC suit on 360. So no, I don't plan on doing a 3rd playthru. I've got tons of other games I need/want to play, and I don't have nearly as much time as I did before College started. Besides, I often have to force myself thru a second playthru of any game, let alone how annoying a 3rd playthru would be.

I'm doing a PC only run. (I figure it'll be easier to do on my Hard playthru, rather than my Impossible playthru).

Okay, things have gotten much better. I wish I had better understood the upgrade system. I thought that since the PC's damage counter said 10 pts. that meant that I needed 10 nodes in order to upgrade. Needless to say, once I realized my mistake, I've now upgraded my damage twice, and my stasis energy once. I've almost upgraded my suit's health as well. I'm also finding a lot of ammo for other guns, but since I'm just going to stick with the PC, I'll just sell it all and get a ton of credits. About 3 rooms after I started, I found enough ammo to keep me going. What really helped was to use 3 shots to take out one leg, then to stasis the necro on the ground so I could have enough time to stomp them to death. But 2 enemies are really making life tough: 1) Those bat thingies (I think they're called Infectors). THEY WON'T DIE! It takes almost 20 shots to put them down. I've tried using stasis and stomping it to death, but there isn't enough time! It wakes up before I can kill it, and it removes a TON of health if it latches on to me. 2) The tiny bug enemies. I can only seem to kill them one at a time with the PC, and that wastes far too much ammo. But if they latch onto me, I lose lots of health AGAIN!

I feel so frustrated... I've been pretty good at aiming. I might have wasted maybe 30 shots totally over the course of these chapters. Basically, those super-tough enemies in the morgue took almost my entire supply of PC ammo. But I have 9 nodes, so I can almost upgrade my PC's damage. If only this game was more like Resident Evil 4. In that game, even if I ran out of ammo, I could spam the knife on Las Plagas. But in Dead Space, Isaac can't melee or stomp for crap! It's far less dangerous for me to use 5 ammo on a Necromorph than for me to use 3 to remove it's leg, and stomp on it over 10 times before it dies. By that time, it will have unavoidably removed at least 2 notches of my health! Although I'm enjoying myself, this game doesn't screw around on Hard difficulty...'

So, I'm on hard. I just got to chapter 3, and I have no med pacs. I have 3 ammo for the plasma cutter. And I have less than 1000 credits. How screwed am I?

Notice in that "wavedashing" vid, how easily his combo is defeated at 2:35. His techniques aren't nearly as impressive as they seem.

So, I just completed True Arena. Who else thinks this game is a friggen epic masterpiece?

Wow. Yahtzee is a man of many talents. He can write poetic lines in description of a videogame (unless those were stolen from a source I'm unaware of). He can be humorous (duh). And the man can act! I'm not sure what the point of that last part was, but he was pretty good at being a secretary nonetheless!

Well, once you get Live up and running: Welcome to the world of Xbox 360. Enjoy owning the best console of this generation!

So, my excitement has grown much colder as of late. Now that this is just going to come on yet another disc, and isn't going to have as extensive a campaign as Halo 3, it seems like more of a rip-off than anything. Why do I want to play as some generic recon soldier? Why do I want to drop another (probable) $60 for shorter campaign, few new multiplayer leves, and a tweaked forge? Bungie has left a bad taste in my mouth.

That's me. The only thing that kept me coming for more was the extensive map maker. As a console-only gamer, I was not used to that kind of creative freedom. But after I created my ATV race courses, a devilishly difficult CTF map floating in the sky, my interpretation of King Kong's island, and downloaded some of the strangest maps from other crazy people, it was all over for me. I took the game out and never put it back in my Xbox again.

Glitchy videos make me LOL

It's not that hard once you memorize some things. MM3 is harder.

Yahoo, and stuff!

Duh, don't blame Screwattack. Their results were decided from over 15,000 votes, remember? If anything, it's people like you and me who are misconstruing quantity for quality. I'm relatively happy with this list, but it's far from perfect. It's missing critical songs.

Yeah, this is pretty sweet! I just downloaded it, and got 13/20. I didn't find that SM expansion, but I got everything else you guys found. I'm really looking forward to the real deal. Isn't Game Maker a beautiful thing?

This. Quick Man's stage is devilishly tantalizing in this way. "Ooh, an extra life! Lemme just grab it real fast--" SCHRAAAAOOOOOOOO!!! Instant death. Mario suffers from this as well, sometimes. But I'd vote for every choice, if I could.

I appreciate the suggestion, but I can only use factual sources. But I really like the movie...

For my college Research Paper, I decided to expound upon cloning, and the controversies it creates. If any of you know of any credible sources (books, magazine articles, etc.) pertaining to the controversies surrounding cloning, I could really use the reference.

I did not need to see that before bed. Pearby's gonna make me pee myself in my sleep...

When you gotta go...well...you know...

I find that really, really, really, really, really, really hard to believe...

There's a big difference between "alive" and "dead, but people are using your corpse like a marionette."

Now this catches my attention. Not that bullcrap anime wagglefest masquerading as a fighting game on the Wii. *Has nothing against anime, games based on anime, or anime based on games.*
