My PS3 is taking ages to download this update and i have no idea how big it is supposed to be. Anyone know anywhere where I can download the update and use my USB to update the firmware? I have looked but have not been successful, thanks guys!
Well.....technically, isn't that what a game is SUPPOSED to do when you BEAT it? :?

Yes, I am starting to get annoyed at people complaining that the game ends when they finish the primary quest. I understand that it is an open-world game, but open-world doesn't mean never ending.
I actually prefer it to be shorter. That way the story doesn't drag on and a casual gamer can feel a sense of accomplishment even playing for 30mins or an hour.
Most people who complain about a game being too short clearly just rush through the SP anyway, and with trophies, time-trail, DLC (most likely) I am sure that it will last me a lot more thn 8 to 10 hours :)
I haven't played Fallout 3 but I have finished Dead Space and I have to say, Dead Space is friggin amazing. It is the only game that I've wanted to beat again straightaway after finishing (sadly I have exams so I can't). I highly recommend Dead Space, even if you rent it, the story and gameplay are worth playing through for any gamer.
It is an amazing game. It is not very difficult, you can finish it on easy without dying and with minimal skill. It is similar to other FPS games in the sense that it is from the first-person perspective. The gun-play is good, and the plasmids add a lot more substance to the gameplay. Even if you aren't a fan of FPS games, play it on easy so you can at least experience the game, it is amazing as I said before :P
If a developer knows that their game is being 'hyped', more often then not they feel that they don't need to completety polish a game. Obviously this isn't the case of all developers, some developers will go the extra mile to make sure their games are great, heres a little example using school :P
You have an assignment, you show your teacher before you hand it in and your teacher says it is amazing. Do you bother trying to make it better, if your teacher (target audience, which would be us in the gaming industry) already thinks its awesome? What if your teacher said it looked good, but needed some work... Would you work hard to make it better? I would! But a devoted student (or developer), would work their rear-end off no matter what the teacher said, they would work till they made a game that is truely amazing.
I am up to chapter 8 and let me tell you that it doesn't get boring. The Zero-G segments are great, and method of killing (strategic dismemberment) is very well done.
I couldn't sleep at night if I didn't encourage people to buy it because it is a great experience. The atmosphere is amazing and the pacing is great.
I guess it wouldn't be fair if I didn't list the flaws :P The only thing I dislike about the game is the repition of fetch and fix quests, also you tend to backtrack across areas you've already been but that is incorporated well into the game.
You are probably better off selling those on eBay, you'll make a lot more. With the second question, it really depends if you want your PS3 for general entertainment (Blu-Ray etc) or for gaming. If it is for gaming, then it would make no sense to not get any games :P
2 main reasons. As the poster before me said, the interactivity. The most important reason, sense of achievement. When you read a book, at the end you may think 'Yay, I read that book good!'. At the end of a game, you are happy with finishing it, but you wanna beat it on a harder difficulty, you want to find those unlockables, that is what keeps us in to games IMO.
