It is still coming out on the PC on the 2nd though.
You're semi right The US 360 release has been delayed but the EU one is still on track... trust me, I've looked into it

Not really paid much attention to it, Sacred 2 put me off anything like that

Was nothing wrong with Sacred 2 though I do generally prefer my rpgs with a bit more soul (Bioware & Bethesda).

You didn't give it enough of a go you know!

Played it for about 15hrs or more iirc. But like you said, no soul, just monotony.
It certainly had a weird addictive thing going on but ultimately it was dull.

Finally got my hands on a copy of gears 2, i'm impressed with how much the graphics have improved over the original, the AI still seems flakey as ever though . Still, if it's half as good as its predecessor i'll be happy.

Just played the Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 demo, sweet jesus it's good. The whole reason i held out for this was because of the dire framerate on the 360 version and after playing a coop mission (with an AI partner) which had a stupid amount of enemies on screen the framerate didn't even falter so i'm pleased.

I've noticed the odd drop in framerate in the full game but nothing serious, it was barely even noticeable. The whole game seems a bit brighter than the 360 version, though I'm really disappointed they've taken virtually all the blood out.

Quite surprised by that tbh, the stairs section was notoriously bad:

I'm not up to that point on the PS3 version yet so I'll let you know about the slowdown when I get there
