I never liked it when it first came out.. but the older I got, the more I liked it.. I guess you can call me a Street Fighter Fanboy when I was young.

Hmm I'm having doubts on replay value tho. Once you know a case, there's not much interest on my side to play it again, despite different reactions etc.

there is replay value.

But screwing up and dropping the lead happens in real life, and Team Bondi, sticking to their mantra of realism, looks to keep that up. Though some cases may have up to nine different endings, the developers have stated that you might not be able to solve all the cases. But don't fret because you'll have other ways of moving on. One dead-end case may be the beginning of a new one. A slow-moving case may cross paths with another or lead back to a cold one. Each case is even given its own title and though they';ll often be independent of one another, they';ll somehow help feed the overall story."

Picked up Dante's Inferno Divine Edition at Target yesterday on clearance for $10. I played the demo and didn't like it a ton, it was just like GoW, but for $10 it's hard to go wrong.

I played the demo to Dante's and thought the same.. but when you play the game in the "full" you see that there is some things that make it feel good to play.. I stopped because to me, the level's felt "the same" but just a different enemy added.. Yeah, GOW might of been the same, but the story drove you to play more.. Dante's didn't make me want to see the end..

I finally found my way against power punchers, I stay far from them, on the outside (I got long reach), throw a few jabs here and there but mostly just avoid his punches, he gets tired and I can go for a decision win being prudent, or risking it and counter and then quickly do my combinations

I'm mostly a head puncher, lotsa combinations with only a few power punches and go for the knockout OR TKO... If my opponent is just to strong for me, I usually catch on by the 1st round and I use mostly one hand to injure him and TKO or KO because it brings his health down... I only had 1 fight I almost lost but got a decision win by majority with only 2 points thanks to my volume punching...

Yea, volume punching is y thing... Punch like crazy then retreat, use my feet and recover stamina, then counter and crazy combos again :)

In my legacy I'm ranked 9 atm 15 wins 12KOs 1TKO 3 decisions. Play on pro only though, but a good challenge still

TBH you are doing a fine job, and as the "manager" of the clubhouse you don't really have to do much... Hell noone cares anymore about being added to the list, we just like having this thread to be able to talk about anything PS3 related

ok I don't know if I'am in the right place to ask but what is the yellow ring of death for ps3

btw, YLOD (Yellow Light of Death) is what it is called.... easier to find on google with the right terms ;)

and there is a :) Thanks button on the bottom right of posts, (no need to post thanks)

EDIT:

Personally, a typed thank you is better than a lazy button click.

That is why I don't click the button.

the whole point of this button is to not have the 2 word thank you posts... :rolleyes: I personally do both, but that is because I usually have something else to say in my posts
