Why did it have to end so soon :(

back on topic :)

i really like GOW, its short but what there is is high quality

the mp is good, the challenge variation is good hardcore etc
the coop is good and the sp is good

what other games have everything ? not many tbh
 
i persoanlly hated GOW, best graphics though, just hated the cover system totally compared to GRAW or Las Vagas and the stupid amount of bullets needed. Online wasn't much better for me either as i don't like the small amount of people that can play, much prefer the likes of Halo 2, CoD3 and RFOM (which for me is unbeaten in online currentgen multiplay)

I suppose. But it is a nice way of overcoming capacity issues. I wouldn't mind multiple discs at all, especially if it was, say, 1 for multiplayer and 1 for single player.

Edit: Resident evils requiring multiple disks (even on the gamecube) didn't bother me in the slightest, it just seems like PS3 fanatics are clutching at straws to find ways of proving the PS3 is better.
I don't think I'm clutching at straws. I like my 360, and whilst I completely understand the mutliple discs not being a problem point of view it would appear that some devs dont as there is alreay conjecture that some are cutting stuff out to fit onto a single DVD9 rather than go multiple. Also MS having left out the HDD on the core will come back to bite them in the foot in the long run too imo. Developers wont develop around the HDD being there while there's a fair user base with no HDD.

Splitting game modes is a greta way of doing it if possible as it means you won't need to switch discs unless you change the gametype.
I can't imagine it working in many cases though. Generally different game modes are going to use almost all the same assets. I don't know what GT2 was like, but it's likely most of the data on both discs were the same (I'm guessing both arcade and Turismo modes used the same tracks and hence textures). I know that all 3 FF7 discs have all the game data on them except for FMV sequences. If you switch discs while you're playing the game works fine until you get to an FMV.

As games rely less on FMVs it's going to get harder to split things up onto multiple discs. If it's mainly audio dialogue that's taking up a lot of space then that will split up nicely since most of that will only be heard at one point in the game. But if it's mainly textures then it makes things trickier since in fairly non-linear games you'll probably want to visit most areas at many points in the game. And even in the case of non-linear games, many textures will be reused again and again.
 
was you playing the game on the easiest setting? If so you're gonna burn through it. I did it on the normal difficulty first (you have to to unlock insane I think) and it took me a good amount of time, a few days of solid play I think. Did the end area with my mate anyway. On Insane it takes a lot longer.

I agree, with insane you do have to be a bit more tatical as it doesnt take many shots to kill you, on easy you can just fly through the levels as you dont need to worry about damage so much.

All in all a great game and well worth the cheap prices you can get it for now
