How did you manage that? There is too much ammo available to carry, even on hard

I had a lot of ammo trouble in UC2 too; you couldn't carry much (enough) and had to constantly rely on getting ememy weapons which might not be easy to get to.

The game does go on too long as well and is certainly a tad too shooty for my liking but I can forgive it most of it's failings. Some great set pieces, a good epic storty and fantastic characterisation raises it well above the bar.

I managed to get another 40 or so minutes of Alan Wake in earlier (Ch. 2) and it's really hit a chord with me. Love the art style, the story, the music, the pacing and the combat. I can see how one would tire of it if they tried to power through it but at the right tempo it's all good.

it was at that stage where you get the page that talks about finding ammo... but i never found it!

Now it'd appear the bridge is rather good at killing me!

'bout bloody time... :P

Despite playing UC2, Heavy Rain, Pokemon HeartGold, Alan Wake, Splinter Cell: Conviction and Demon's Souls it's still my Goty. (Had to get this in before Red Dead gets here!)

Well, it turns out that Lost Planet 2 is pretty freakin' rad.

I'm currently playing through Alan Wake and I have to say I'm finding it pretty enjoyable. I'm loving the story and really want to get to the end so I can find out exactly what the hell is going on. I don't like how close the camera is to Alan, so that when Taken attack me from behind I have no idea they're there, but other than that I'm finding it really intriguing, and I love the episodic way it's laid out. 3 chapters down, 3 to go, I'll definitely have it finished by tomorrow night so I can leave my entire weekend clear for Red Dead Redemption, which looks like a potential GOTY candidate.

I really need to get a new game of sorts as i'm sure at some point Rock Band will become boring. I have loads of other games to play as well, I just feel very 'meh' whenever I play them.

Problem is, I don't know what games are out that would work for me, and I have no money.
