    Quick question, guys: is there any real issue with the 2000 (super shitty screen or something) that would prevent one from really wanting one over the 3000?

    I can pick up a 2k today for 100 even, a 3k would start at 169.

    The 3000 just has a microphone built in, and the screen is better. Brighter, more vibrant, with anti glare if you are outside with it. Some people have problems with visible scan lines, but I've also been told the issue is totally overblown.

    Personally, I have a 2000 have have zero problems with the screen, unless I'm outside, like at a bus stop. Then it's near unusable.

    I have both, and side by side the scan lines on the 3000 are noticable but you'll forget all about them while playing.

    That said, 2000 is a fine purchase too and I have no real issues with the screen. 3000's screen is sharper but it's not really night and day or anything.

    Don't sweat it. I'm not far enough into the game to really grow attached to the characters yet, I just know which ones I wouldn't want a sig of (Avan) and which ones just plain rub me the wrong way (Chloe). I haven't met the guy with the die, but I usually like scruffy gambling dudes so as long as his potentials don't suck when I met him then I could see him growing on me.

    Chance, don't forget that if you want to do downloaded stuff on a 2000 or 3000 you'll have to pick up a decent memory card for it. The go has 16GB flash builtin, which is the only thing about it that's awesome. The other models have nil.

    The 8GB sticks are pretty affordable though if you buy online. Try to find one with reviews saying it's pretty fast, because there are some slow ones out there and they suck to use.

    Not to go off on too much of a tangent, but from a hardware standpoint, there's a lot going for the Go.

    It's just utterly and completely overshadowed by the way Sony shitted all over it. :P

    And the 2000 screen really isn't that bad. Comparatively in those shots, it seems pretty washed out, but in actual usage you probably wouldn't be sitting there saying "damn, these strawberries don't seem vibrant enough".

    Thanks to this thread, I'm playing VC1 again. Never beat it, and my PS3 had to be replaced, so I'm starting over from scratch. Can't believe how rusty I am, too. In the first skirmish map, Alicia was knocked out and Marina was killed. D: I couldn't hit 'Load' fast enough.

    Boy, Lavinia's Classmate mission complete potential is broken.
    It increases all her stats by quite a bit and it activates 100% of the time. Seriously, it does. This also means that she'll always say, "A DOZEN GHOST TANKS COULDN'T STOP ME!" every single time you use her after this happens. It gets a bit annoying after a while. Still, it's worth it just to see a Heavy Tank go down in 1 shot while you're aiming at the front.

    Ha ha, I've started just leaving a Gunner sitting in my base camp even if it seems like absolutely nothing is going on with that map. I figure if I could clear the remaining maps with six people I can manage with five.

    Am I the only one who wished VC2 had a Japanese language option? I've been looking forward to it for so long (got a psp specifically for it last year), it's been sitting in my house with no time to be played, and now the VA is grating on me at every turn.

    Does the Asian release have an English subs options?

    After playing through VC1 in both English and Japanese, I can say I prefer the English voice acting by far. The Japanese track just doesn't give you subtitles for all the battlefield chatter, and there's where so much of the characterization is. Granted there's a lot more of it outside of the battle scenes in VC2, but you get my drift.

    limed and also fixed for everyone but the main characters, since nobody else showed up in any scenes ever due to the whole "can die permanently" thing.
