wait, you bought psp games and didn't have a psp? wtf? why???

no, there's no KH games on the psn. i was just saying it would be cool. anyway, i'm not sure why. disney has games on there, so does square enix. so i have no idea why they wouldn't considering how popular the games have been.

Perks of being a PS+ member are the sales Really want Valkyria Chronicles 3 to come over but Sega is throwing money away for not even translating it.

i see... i only got the uncharted pinball game and lbp... both were free.

[Yolky]

There is a free Uncharted Pinball game! Where do you get it? I didn't know you were a PS+ member.

i'm a temporary ps+ member... got one month as a free promo when i bought uncharted 3 on amazon. anyway, the uncharted pinball game came with the uncharted 1&2 collection... along with a bunch of avatars, a theme, and dlc from uncharted 2. it was a pretty good deal... especially when i got it as a buy 2 games, get 1 free from toys-r-us when i was doing christmas shopping last year. sadly, like i said, the pinball game is for psp. i redeemed it, but didn't download it... similar to what i did with the free lbp game after last year's psn outtage.

anyway, speaking of uncharted, i've been analyzing the new tomb raider videos and screens, and it's definitely got that uncharted feel. i don't know if the shooter aspect will be quite the same, but the interactive qte feel of uncharted 3 is definitely there. some people may be disappointed... not sure. although, the new tomb raider seems to have a greater interaction with the environment (i.e. fire and burning stuff, etc.). i'm sure i'll definitely be checking out the new TR... though one thing's for certain, it's not anywhere like the older games anymore... which i think i might miss. hopefully they'll be putting in some of that old stuff as we see more from it... maybe at E3 this year.

Trine 2 is free this week! Maybe I should have waited Ah well, I like the studio so I don't mind supporting them. Uncharted pinball part of the Zen pinball tables?
The only thing I bought during the holiday was SWTOR. Need to make another character though.

Didn't know they released more video or screenshots. What do you mean by old stuff?

[jmk1999]

no, the uncharted pinball is its own thing... i think. i don't know for sure since i can't play it.

by old stuff i just meant the classic tomb raider feel. it doesn't feel like tomb raider anymore. don't get me wrong, it looks awesome... but it feels more like uncharted when i look at it.

Ah I see

Are we talking like manual aiming vs auto target?

[jmk1999]

no, i was more referring to the emphasis on qte and a cinematic feel vs. just playing through in a normal 3rd person action/adventure view. the new one goes for varying angles, dramatic moments, etc... where as the older games just stayed constant and only changed when you got to a cut scene. uncharted (particularly U3) emphasized alot of the cinematic moments, particularly using qte. i haven't seen anything on shooting as of yet. it wouldn't surprise me if it's manual aiming. i'm sure we'll end up seeing more at E3... especially since i believe the game's got a fall release now.

[Yolky]

They are just telling you where to go. I think they did that with the last one too.
