Games / Re: Should I get a PS Vita? Or is a 3DS better?

You should get a Vita. The Vita gets sequels to games you like from the PS3 and it has much better graphics. If I were you I'd prefer a handheld with almost the power of a PS3 and lots of good and mature games for core gamers.

Ya you hardly find good levels when ppl try to rebuild stuff. Hm when I go a bit more time maybe I'll do a proper level in LBP2.

@Molch-R
Hmm you're right. That would be a good idea. Never thought there would be more than one old thread.

@Commando Forces
Thought about that when I saw a topic about miniatures today. (:

I think even if there are no plans for a new game it's interesting to hear what kind of game people would like to play.

I'm no sure if you can still get it but for a short period of time you can get a free code for the Hitman Sniper Challange on the offical page. Also the amount of codes are limited but maybe you can still get one. I got a code for my PS3 a few days ago.

Is there anyone playing one of the LBP games? I'm really into it but lately I'm a bit too lazy to build nything. The more I hear about the lack of a Judge Dredd game I think about making something at LBP2 myself though.

How about you guys?

Games / Re: Assassin's Creed - But which one??

Hmm the AC series has one big story and every game is important to understand everything. AC1 has its flaws, that's for sure but the gameply is fun and the story is really interesting. Even if it gets repetetive you can get it for just a few bucks. I'd reccoment you to start with the first game and if you don't like it just remember it was their first try and gets much better with AC2.

I know but there are some good examples of comic book games which got good sales and got bought even by people who are not fans of the original. Take The Darkness or Batman for example. If they do it right I think it could be a great success. There are not so many games where you play the police and have fun with it and the idea, scenary, characters and so on are really different from the games on the market.

Film Discussion / Re: Rewatching the OTHER Dredd movie...
02 December, 2012, 10:26:22 AM
I watched this so many times but after I watched Dredd somehow I can't take this seriously anymore. Dredd without helmet, Rob Schneider annoying the living **** out of you and the changed helmet (funny that it bugs me now since I prefered it when I was a teenager). The movie had so much potential...

Film Discussion / Re: DREDD reviews. (SPOILERS!)
02 December, 2012, 10:15:42 AM
I only read some of the comics so far but played Dredd vs. Death, read facts about the Judge Dredd universe, saw the bad 90s movie and I'm just starting to get more into it and I really LOVE this film!

I always enjoyed the old Stallone flick since I didn't know too much about how Judge Dredd really has to be like. I loved the the Judges which I already knew from looking into some of the comics in a local book store. The idea of being judge, jury and executioner, the Lawgiver with its many functions, the cool Lawmaster and of course Judge Dredd! The weird thing is that even back then it felt weird seeing Judge Dredd taking off his helmet without knowing that he never does that in the comics. I liked it anyway though. The music, the action, Stallone and the whole look of the movie was fun.

Well then I heard about a new Judge Dredd movie and I was really excited! When I saw the new uniform and Carl Urban I was really disappointed though. I got pissed because of directors making their own stupid versions of comic or video game characters in the past already and I thought "God! Not again some stupid and bad director who thinks that his lame idea of a character is so much better!" and I lost all hope...at least until I saw the trailer and got blown away! xD But enough of that, I want to give my opinion on the movie.

As much as I was skeptical about Carl Urban, as much I loved him when I saw the movie! Even if Dredd looks a bit different because of the uniform and beard to me it was the perfect Judge Dredd. I even start to prefer the movie uniform a little bit because it's more realistic and practical. Also the helmet because the shape is a bit more stylish than in the comics, in my opinion. But what makes me think of Dredd the most is Urbans mimic. I love this grim look on his face!
As much as I like the realistic design of the uniform I was a bit bored of the realistic streets of Mega City 1. The streets and cars looked a bit too much like 2012 to me. I would have preferred a bit more futurism since that's nothing new. I see that every day when I go outside or when I watch other action movies. I think it would become a bit boring if there will be a Dredd 2 where we see more of Mega City 1. Also it was a bit boring that he great hall of justice was just a simple building now. As much as I understand the intention of making a more realistic Judge Dredd movie it gets a bit boring to take away almost all the fiction of it.

I was really happy to see that this movie is no family friendly mainstream crap with no violence at all. I always knew that Judge Dredd is no whiny teeny comic and has to be a bit harder and stuff. Always wished the old movie had some more violence and the effects of Dredd are as gory as they have to be! I think it supports the character of Dredd and the world he lives in. Without violence you don't see that Dredd is really relentless and loyal when it comes to the law. On the other hand you don't see that it's really necessary in such a cruel world.
All the action scenes are lots of fun to watch and the idea to give slow-mo a purpose is just brilliant! I could watch it again and again and I never gets boring.

The idea of having just one location for almost the whole movie was better than I thought it would be. Well at least if we get to see another one with more action in the city. The idea of having Dredd and Anderson going up level by level almost reminds me of a video game and gives it the feeling of a bigger threat to the Judges. You also don't get distracted by other things and concentrate more on the characters this way which are really interesting and are played well.
The actors are doing a good job and fit in their roles (at least for the movie since Mama is a new character and I don't know enough about Anderson). You just really want Anderson to pass, you want Mama to pay for her crimes and die a gruesome death and you want Dredd to be a badass who carries out the law mercilessly! To me it's all about the characters because the story is very simple and it could have been a bit deeper but I didn't expect it to be a Matrix like script, or something. Maybe they give us more in Dredd 2...if it will ever happen. I hope really much that they do it just for the love to Judge Dredd (which I really saw and felt) and not because of the money. It's sad that there was so little interest in such a good movie. Even if you're not a fan of the comics I think action fans have their fun with this film and could even become new fans to the franchise. I just hope that they have a bigger and better promo for the next one. However I can't wait for the Blu-Ray! It will be a day one purchase!
