He was very hard. I got so frustrated the first night I fought him (and lost many many times) that I had to take a break for a few days. I was so spent after I defeated him, that I've barely played any of the game since. But I plan on starting it back up this week sometime.
Just finished the tutorial (Black Mask breakout). Cant wait to get to that part. I live for boss battles. To me they define a game. Thats why I hate when games lately dont even try to have a final one. Major let down after working so hard to get through a game.
I really didn't enjoy the first uncharted at all, but had more fun in the 2nd one. I do think uncharted is an overhyped franchise, but I caught myself having a good bit of fun with it as well.
It is a bit time intensive. Even without all the dlc, you're looking at around 70-90 hours of gameplay for all 3. Unless you blow through and dont do any side missions which defeats the whole purpose.
Individually yes, but goons travel in packs. I kind of agree with sjax that if you take on even a decent sized set of armed goons you are probably going to get your hat handed to you.
Enjoy. My addiction ran out when I kept getting killed by the Matriarch's goons. After ten times I began to suspect I had just chosen the wrong party and felt cosmically screwed. Haven't played in a week.Just downloaded Mass Effect.
I am a huge fan of the series but I'm not sure how well the first one is going to hold up. It's 7 year old game at this point. However, if you can get through the first one then it's only going to get better. If/when you decide to get the next one I'd suggest getting a bundle that includes all the DLC. It's much funner to play the DLC as part of the game rather than a replay.Just downloaded Mass Effect.
Im a bit biased but I believe ME1 is the best in the series for what it offers. The conversation choices and rpg elements are the best of the 3. The space exploration is the best. Character building and storytelling are top notch as well. Where it falls behind is combat. It feels like a 7 year old game in that aspect.I am a huge fan of the series but I'm not sure how well the first one is going to hold up. It's 7 year old game at this point.

It's not the age (I still play FO3 all the time) but the style of play that's not my cup o tea. It just seems like "run to the blue spot, shoot the red spot, repeat".Borden said:I am a huge fan of the series but I'm not sure how well the first one is going to hold up.

Yeah I play mostly older games but it was just kind of boring. I will give it another shot down the road.

I guess I'm only into the large open sandbox worlds like fallout and Skyrim
If tou didnt get past the council part where they fibd out Saren is a traitor, give it another shot. The intro is slow. After that it really picks up.Yeah I play mostly older games but it was just kind of boring. I will give it another shot down the road.

I don't think I did but I can't recall. It was all just very meh.If tou didnt get past the council part where they fibd out Saren is a traitor, give it another shot. The intro is slow.

No, but I do look at buildings and think about how I'd get the to top in Assassin's Creed.
If you don't like it by Chapter 12 (really by Chapter 6 or so), you're just not going to like it. Don't worry about it.EYLive said:
I'm defiantly old now. The only games series I bother with anymore are anything Zelda or Metroid related, but I did get pulled into the AC franchise as well. Did AC get any better after ACIII? III was awful - I never made it past the 15 hour mark.
There is a lord of the rings game or similar that's coming out that is a mix of RPG meets Assassins Creed.
Definitely give a shot past that. That's really where the gameplay and story open up. IF you're not hooked by Virmire, then you won't be to Mass Effect at all.I don't think I did but I can't recall.

True. But the reveal there just makes you go "Holy ####!" in terms of the scale of your battle from there on out.
I'm sure I said it before...but Mass Effect would be a kick ### HBO show.Insein said:
If it had the right writers. Otherwise it would really suck. But the source material is excellent to build from (ignoring a bit of ME 3 of course).
I love this game but it takes quite a bit of effort to master the combat. Seriously being able to combine physical attacks with spells and bombs is a bit of a dance with your fingers but once it clicks it is a wonderfully elegant gaming experience.
I played through the tutorial stuff with Xbox controller, but I think I'm gonna go mouse/keyboard next time I play to see if I like it better. The menu and quick menu stuff on the controller was weird. Also, I got my ### handed to me in the arena and the game says "Maybe you should play easy." and I think, "yeah, ok".
Agree, once I forced myself to stop button mashing and worked on a few combo moves I enjoyed this much more. Don't sleep on the dodge and roll move either.
Get the people responsible for the Battlestar Gallactica remake to do it and it'd be pure gold.
Yea I didnt understand why Bane is here if this is an Origins story. Doesnt Bane show up much later in Batmans life? Theres a lot of inconsistencies like how the technology is better than Asylum and City but its supposed to be a much younger Batman. Oh well. I guess I can overlook it if thr gameplay is still fun.
