Every time I turn it on GTA3 or Vice City is in the drive and every time I put my hand near the DVD drive it shouts at me and tells me to move away. I tried putting another game in the drive but it wouldn't load and I got the error message:
345671NOGTADVDRECOGNISED14628394
Shall I take it back to the shop or shall I just leave it alone?!
Disclamier:
I and anyone who shares my house does not own a PS2 console or takes delight in how Sony ripped me off 1 and a half years a go. If PS2 owners are angry I am sorry as it is just a front for an Eternal Darkness thread and what it is all about. If you are offended in anyway I will give you the complaints address, however it was made in good fun and the propeitor (being me) is very sorry for offending any devout PS2 fans.
Anyway, that aside, I am trying to understand what Eternal Darkness is all about?! My friend who sold his GameCube over Christmas leant me a Video he had reviewing and previewing GameCube games. I have watched the Video and a few games impressed me, yet after reading numerous reviews of Eternal Darkness the video footage doesn't match up with what I seem to read. IGN said that magic was used yet it was an adventure game like Resident Evil, does anyone else think this is strange? The game looks excellent and it comes highly recommended from many reviewers (who claim it to be the greatest game they have ever played) yet I can't seem to weigh up the reviews with the in game footage and screen shots that I have seen around th internet and on video format.
The game looks more like an RPG with adventure elements and a bit of Warcraft magic mixed in and amongst the action. I am getting Resident Evil next and then I am going to get Eternal Darkness and Super Mario: Sunshine but in the mean time I would like to know more about this game. Are there 12 characters to choose from along with numerous ways of approaching the game? Any additional information would be appreciated, thanks!
It's good.
