Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Also, what are the boxes with the glowing green lights? Suitcases or something?
Also I assume you are stomping them.
It would be lame if you had to buy them all, I mean I could understand the reasons, but man that makes no sense that nearly a thousand dead crew members and all you can find among all of them is one plasma cutter and TONS of ammo for it and OTHER guns. I hope I end up finding other weapons and just merely have the option of also buying them.

It's very critical if you wanna survive with enough ammo to live through the next encounter.
So far, I don't think blasting away at anything has gotten me very far. You have to think, and move quickly, or you will get mauled.
not those ones. The squarish boxes with the green lights. In all the videos the player seems to ignore them.
There's lockers and boxes and shit...most of them are locked, but ones with blue lights open and have credits or ammo in them.
I can't think of what you would be talking about if not the loot cases. curbstomp them and they drop, as meatflower said, a supply of some kind.
As for the Strategic Dismemberment, I imagine carefully aiming shots would go a long, long way towards saving ammo on Hard. I'm on Medium in Chapter 6 and am having a little trouble keeping ammo stocked (not a very good shot, though).
To compare, on medium you can definitely kill a slicer with a minimum of two plasma shots, one in each arm. One line gun shot if they're in the 'arms up' stance.
Alternatively, perhaps as many as 6 torso shots with plasma or 4 line gun shots. Those numbers are an estimate though, I'll check it out momentarily.
Oh the glowing wall bumps. Yeah they don't seem to do anything. On closer inspection I read a "WARNING HIGH VOLTAGE" type sticker near it which leads me to believe they are some sort of power junction.
The glow is similar to the loot boxes which gave me the initial impression they contained something or were intractable. According to Chromium's spell checker, that is a word.
Another reason hard mode is better is because the game has the best death scenes since resident evil 4 and you're missing out if you don't get to see many of them.
The one that surprised me most so far was
On Hard that happens to me ALL THE TIME. I've died upwards of 15 times, though usually it's more because I get stuck on a difficult bit with no stasis and 3 bullets left to my name.
I'll admit it, I'm anxious.
Doesn't sound like I'll be disappointed...I better not be disappointed.
Still got that Force Unleashed aftertaste?
You won't be. Unless you're the sort of person who hates fun.
Hehehe...I actually don't mind FU, but I am a Star Wars whore mind you.
I actually LOVE fun! I find it to be very enjoyable and worth my time..so...good!
Yeah..hit X.
Seriously.
Also, is there an instant stasis pack button like that? Cause I haven't found it. And I looked.
One of my favourite things about fighting these necromorphs is that, when I retreat quickly, say up an elevator, they'll come out the vents in my new location after a slight pause. They're smart.
I'm going to have to go into the vents at some point, aren't I?
Oh well, they can't dodge if they're in the vents.
I hate when they dodge.
The X button is your med-pack button.
Seriously people, do you not even glance at the button config in the instruction manual?
There are save points around the ship. You find em, there's multiple save slots, ta da!
There's also random checkpoints so you don't always have to backtrack forever if you die.
Nope.
To clarify, those checkpoints are only for when you die. if you quit the game, then load, you'll only load to the last save point.
EDIT: didn't even realize i was double-posting. my bad.
The one time I don't, and it takes me hours to discover that you can zoom in with the cannon on the tank thing in Mass Effect.
I told that to a guy in the local EB and his eyes widened and he cried "REALLY? Oh man that makes things SO MUCH EASIER!"
RTFM my friends.
I know that there's a different DLC suit for each, but aside from that, any differences?
I initially thought I'd get the PS3 one since I just got my PS3 and I only have Resistance:FOM for it. (Get my PS3 collection going)
I'm glad that I didn't wait.
Incidentally, has anybody answered the previously asked question regarding whether or not you actually find other weapons scattered about? I used a lot of my credits to buy the level 2 RIG and don't want to waste any on weapons if you find them elsewhere for free.
From what I've seen you have to buy the extra weapons

Besides, weapon scarcity makes things scarier.
Well...my brother's been playing for a while and he's usually always hovering around 40-50k credits. So it probably isn't a big deal buying weapons.
i guess i'll just not take advantage of that deal and instead get it from best buy
I've bought and played some of both, and the only difference I've found is that the save screen is a little neater on the 360, whereas the PS3 uses the standard system-wide save interface. That's it. It's great on both machines.
The PS3 version has trophies too!

My work computer can't handle the HD version but on the SD version it looks pretty much the same to me. Can someone who can watch the HD version give an an biased opinion?
Edit: Ahh nevermind seems brynstar already did. Well here is the link anyway.
Let me tell you about Demon's Souls....
