Free Killzone 3 map pack FTW!

ftwrthtx4616d ago

Free to PlayStation Plus Subscribers :-)

decimalator4616d ago

Whee!

Might & Magic = WANT
Dungeon Hunter = WANT
KZ3 maps = WANT

Now... pardon my remedial math skills, but...

2 KZ3 maps = $5 ($2.50 per map)
4 CoD maps + 1 Zombie map = $15 ($3 per map)

Liked a Dungeon Hunter: Alliance demo

decimalator4616d ago

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I will probably buy it anyways, but it's always good to have the option to try it out first before you buy. I especially like the way they have been doing the unlock codes so you just download the game, then unlock it if you like it. Much better than having to re-download a full version later.

joinsideke4616d ago

Augh, I knew I should have waited for Mushroom Wars. Now the bundle's available.

Oh well, It's probably the most enjoyable strategy PSN game I have.

decimalator4616d ago

I bought it awhile back during a "game drought", but then got busy and haven't tried it yet. I take it it's good?

joinsideke4615d ago

If you like strategy games, it's simple and highly enjoyable. Has a lot of life in it, and with the addition of multiplayer, i'm on it for at least 3 matches every day.

LiViNgLeGaCY4616d ago

Oh wow I really want Dungeon Hunter!!!! Anyone play it yet? Opinions?

TheDivine4616d ago

Not yet i heard its mediocre at best but im still tempted. DH is great on iphone but compared to similar console games idk. Prob better to wait 4 dungean siege 3 or pik up sacred 2 used. If this was 8 bux like modern combat itd b easier to say f it. Ilove me some co-op though. Im pissed kz3 dlc junkyard doesnt hav botzone i like practicing w bots but free for ps plus is nice

Can We Finally Admit Assassin's Creed 3 Deserves an Apology?

AC3 was released during a turbulent transition period for Ubisoft and the Assassin's Creed series. It ventured into uncharted territory, narratively and mechanically, which caused it to receive mixed reviews. At its core, though, it's a damn good stealth game.

Nope, I hated 3, connar was bland, literally the most flat character in the entire game. Not to mention to myriad of bugs, camera issues, and that annoying thing where he automatically ditches his weapon you payed for for the sake of a cool finishing move forcing you to trek back to your base after almost every encounter just to re-equip your own weapon. It just didn't work as fluidly as the others like 2 and 4

Samonuske51d ago

The series peaked at AC3 for me. It’s been my favourite in the series. Connor will always be one of my favourite video game protagonists.

Becuzisaid51d ago

No. Game was BORING. Connor was really dull. Environments, while impressive, because of the geographic location and time period were not really exciting to be in. I would love some kind of game set in there colonial American time period, but a game like AC that back then centered around parkour and vertical traversal really didn't fit those environments.

-Foxtrot51d ago

Nope

There was a lot of issues but mine is how they handled the war

They told us Connor was not going to get involved, that the war was more of a background setting for the real story and it wasn’t going to be one sided

They lied, even the cinematic E3 trailer showed Connor emerge from the Colonist side and slaughter the red coats to get to his target, inspiring the Colonists to fight back

I just thought it would have made more sense lore wise that the red coats were mostly compiled of Assassins fighting the Colonist templars who wanted to take the new world for themselves.

Since the Red coats lost the war, it would then explain how the Templars started to gain the upper hand and how on the future the assassins were mostly killed off and the Templar’s had pretty much taken over everything.

Instead it just felt like they didn’t want to p*** off the American audience

Even Haytham was cool, he should have been an Assassin through and through and should have been the main lead.

toxic-inferno50d ago

The game even seems to lack the humour of the other games. It almost seems as though the idea of even slightly making fun of American history wouldn't be acceptable.

-Foxtrot50d ago

Exactly

It just felt super safe

“Better not make the colonists look super bad incase people boycott our game”

jeromeface50d ago

someone missed the whole point

-Foxtrot50d ago

There was literally no point

What I've just said above would at least make sense lore wise and why the Assassins start to loose their war, die off and how the Templars are in control in the future of almost everything....what they did was just, pointless

CrimsonWing6951d ago

I’m one one of those weird people that liked Ass Creed 3, but to be fair I never got around to finishing it.
