sorry had few to drink may try and express better 2morrow

From what I've read and watched it seemed that they gave us all the force powers at once so we had a taste of what you can actually do. I didn't rely on force grip but force push was an awesome laugh

You going for points on that? I enjoyed playing it through once but didn't try it again.

Bit of both really. I love that type of game now I've figured them out properly. But it's nice to get points too

Been quite lucky too as Bladestorm I had free to review, Dynasty Warriors 6 I won, and Dynasty Warriors 5 only cost me £5

Although Samurai Warriors 2: Legends cost me £10.

DW5 > DW6 > Samurai Warriors 2. Not played the others but from what I know, SW2:L would be below DW6, and Bladestorm just above it. DW5 is easily the best, so many more characters.

Bladestorm's still my favourite

But that's mainly down to the story. Not played regular Samurai Warriors 2 (although looks like Lovefilm have just sent me it), but SW2:L feels near identical to DW5 to me so I can't really tell much difference besides a couple of options.
Not touched DW6 much yet.

GOW2 achievements partially leaked. Much more single player and more reasonable multiplayer so far, I like.

Haly · 28-08-2008, 21:57

Looks a bit more interesting than GoW1 too

I much prefer a leaning towards single player. I don't play enough multiplayer to bother with most multiplayer achievements.

Just been watching videos from Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway and have to say that looks very good.

Just been playing Forza 2 for the past hour or so and I'm very impressed. Yeah I know I'm a bit late to it but generally I'm a bit unsure of racing sims as I'm usually terrible at them

But this one seems to have a nice learning curve.
I do have a bit of an advantage in that Nokkon's sent me a load of cars to get me started but I haven't found it too hard yet.

Nice to have so many options........and so many cars

I used to love the original Gran Turismos on the PS1 and this reminds me of them.

Well worth the £10 I paid for the Collector's Edition

You may have noticed me (VeryVoid) using my sexbox lately & Forza2 is responsible & like you it is the Perfect Learning curve that has drawn me in. I've Never played a game that has such a brilliant & well judged learning curve in all my years.
Before last week the most Achievement points I had out of one game was from playing through COD4 & getting around 330, To date I've had around 450 points from Forza2 & all in the last week. I've levelled myself up to around 46 & have around 2 & a half Mill to spend & a Shed load of cars all modded tweaked & painted

Going through the single player has brought me on Perfectly & I like being able to race my friends times even when they are not online by checking the times they set for race series.

This all started when an old online mate I used to play Original COD with bought Forza2 then phoned my house phone to nag me on for a game. Since then I've been flat out racing modding tweaking painting & single player playing. Loving it & to finally get into my sexbox properly is Great.

I'll send you a decent motor later when I go online
