Any news on the Voice-Chat patch??

AntoineDcoolette5256d ago

Yeah, the lack of voice chat totally killed the enjoyment of playing this with my friend.

Forbidden_Darkness5256d ago

If i remember correctly, that was to be included in their first patch they release for the game..

aaronobst5255d ago

On the upside it had local multiplayer, something games developers must think is illegal nowadays

DA_SHREDDER5256d ago

im not playing it till it comes

Reborn5256d ago (Edited 5256d ago )

I paid for it, but waiting for the voice patch.

TardcoreGamer5256d ago

Can't wait for the DLC! Hoping they include some kind of closed area style mini game. Still trying in vain to beat this game on morbid difficulty. One of the best in the dual-stick genre for sure.

Sharingan_no_Kakashi5256d ago

I got stuck on the 4th lvl and gave up on Morbid lol.

insomnium25256d ago (Edited 5256d ago )

I played morbid as co-op. The enemies are much tougher in co-op but I still think it is slightly easier on co-op. There are times when you seriously need to plan out how to get through some of the later levels. Great experience and a GREAT effin game! Those blade handed big guys are a bitch on morbid. One single slice and it's game over.

Voice patch would be good. No need for me personally but that was clearly lacking in co-op.

TardcoreGamer5256d ago

Same here!..here's what you gotta do bro. start over from the beginning. You gotta stagegise more this time..DO NOT buy the SMG or SHOTGUN! not at all. Max out grenades, flairs, mines, tnt and your rifle first. flamethrower is great. so is the blade cannon which you'll need for the very last push-through on the final level. using a flair/blade-cannon combo is great as is a flair/shocker combo. It's better to take your time; using power shots going thru, but sometimes its ok to race thru the harder levels towards the end. I hope this helps. have fun

insomnium25255d ago

€xactly tard!

You absolutely MUST NOT buy the SMG and you MUST buy all the upgrades (quantity atleast) for anything you can distract the zombies with.

I personally bought the shotgun since it's so great against the jumpers. You should try to buy different weapons with your partner and concentrate your upgrades in one place instead of buying everything and not having money to upgrade them.

Flamethrower is good but there is no need to upgrade it for a long time. Once you ignite a zombie the fire will spread among all the zombies that are next to each other. The flames will stun them and give you time to shoot them with the rifle to conserve ammo.

Don't waste your blade cannon on the bigger enemies! Use it only on big piles of enemies (it's good to use the flare to get a nice bunch with one blade).

Also you should go all out with using your weapons. Don't spare the blade cannon in vain but use it. Same with the rocket launcher. You can always buy ammo at weapon shops so all you do is make things more difficult for yourself if you don't use them :)

HAVE FUN!

Aquanauts Holiday at $500. Nice

jznrpg383d ago

I don’t collect games for their value I collect games I enjoyed playing. Many games I own are worth a lot of money but they must be games I want to play for me to purposely collect them. Most of this list isn’t games I would enjoy. I may have some of these games because I bought my friends PS2/3 Collection years ago and I never actually looked what was in it. It was a couple hundred games though still sitting in a box and I’m sure there are some good valuable games. I should go sift through it sometime.

Profchaos383d ago

I tend to agree for the most part rarity is linked to price
It's unusual that a rare game was popular with a few notable exceptions. Games released at the tail end of a consoles lifecycle which became popular years or decades later like little Samson on the NES or earthbound on SNES.
Or games that were banned after release in certain regions

Looking at this list there's nothing I'd be trying to collect either most of these games were fairly unpopular and bashed on their release leading to the scarcity seen now.
Especially NBA elite which I remember actually watching the news about how it got cancelled but had already shipped to retail it was so bad .

P_Bomb383d ago

I still have Afrika. Who knew it’d be worth something?

MrBaskerville383d ago

Was unaware that Verdict Day was rare, glad I still own my copy. Game is very good.

Chocoburger383d ago

She forgot to mention Ni no Kuni Wrath of the White Witch Wizard's Edition with Ninostarter bonuses. This is the second or third most expensive PS3 game, and I own a sealed copy.

I plan to snag Stardust VR soon. It is on PSN sale for cheap.

FTLmaster1522d ago

Do it! It’s a seriously addictive experience. Housemarque is the master of modern arcade classic gameplay. Curious to see how Returnal turns out tbh.

Knushwood Butt1522d ago

Thanks. Downloaded it and will be playing it shortly.

Pre-ordered Returnal too.

P_Bomb1522d ago

Loved Alienation. Good co-op!

Knushwood Butt1522d ago (Edited 1522d ago )

Yep, had a lot of fun playing it with my kids. Although they always fight over the drops.

ArchangelMike1519d ago

Dead Nation is a classic, Definately one of their best games.

yeah, shame about the clicks for each entry though

TheRacingX2288d ago

The VR version of Stardust is an incredible experience, even for those that get VR sickness, the game gives you the feeling of floating in the vastness of space, but the motion sickness is removed, its colorful, flashy, and amazing to play
