After a very long wait, Brute Force is nearly upon is. Released on the 20th, I choose it as a GAD! Im not expecting it to turn up on the 20th (It is free after all, so im not complaining) but at least I know its on its way come Friday!

Anybody else getting this game? If so, and you have broadband, see you online via Gamespy XBOX Portal eh? Should be good...very good...Plus Live downloads!

Canna wait!

You have to have a keyboard for shortcut spells.

Nice to see they catered for people not using one. It's not really a problem, having to leave my character standing still and completely open to attack for 30 seconds while I choose a spell from a menu.

You can't even change the default spell for the B button to something else.

You just put spells on shortcut keys, you don't need all of them, half of them are rubbish.

Why did you put down Shenmue as the worst game ever a few weeks a go then?

It's balls.

And why the hell do I have to scroll through a menu just to cast a spell?



It's worse than Shenmue, all you do is walk through narrow linear 'corridors' and have a really slow fight with something.

Nope, it's excellent online.

Once you start picking up the secret weapons and your character builds up to badass level, it's hard to put the game down. It's pretty slow and dull offline, but playing with other people online makes it feel like a totally different game.

How can you stand to play that game?

It's so incredibly slow and boring.

I haven't been online yet, been waiting for a new router after the last one I ordered killed itself.

The manual for PSO recommends playing through Ep 1 before going online to build your character up, so that's what I'm doing, I don't want to waste my first 60 days free by going on with a useless character ! I've heard of no bugs online or in the magazines, and from the fact that the game includes multilingual text etc I'm guessing that you can get on any server with space. Possibly what you've heard is that the servers elsewhere tend to be busy and not have so much free space at certain times of the day, whereas the UK ones are not full because of less users.

The same conversation is happening in two different threads, almost identical.

DeJa Vu or however the hell you spell it.

No. I actually checked them out properly. The likes of Brute Force and Blade 2, I just don't have time for. At the end of the day, I don't feel I'm missing out at all.
