Silent Hill: Homecoming

Quote from Taylor

Nobody playing the PC version would have avoided using quicksave. The problem is not that it makes the game easier, though you can't really judge the difficulty of something until after, it's that it ruins the suspense and tension: Investigating a noise or heading into some foreboding room is a lot different when you have something to lose, even if ultimately any encounter is weaksauce.

Wut? I played it on PC and didn't use quicksave.

If SH4 had it I woulda used it, though.

SH3 PC had a quicksave? I didn't even notice.

Evil demons should not have that much clevage...It's just...confusing.

You’re so goth you shit bats.

New enemy type confirmed?

Quite possibly the best screenshot I've ever seen in my life. He's like a very bad Dentist.

New enemy type confirmed?

Silly, they're not making new enemy types. They're reusing the Totally Rad ones from older Silent Hill games, despite the entire point being they were subconscious manifestations unique to the character. Heh, you set me off on one. I really want to know how they explain Pyramid Head.

Woa, that's a huge delay... damn...

PS3 version won't be region locked, but I have no burning desire to import atm.

Playstation3 itself don't have region lock.

Games do.

Games are region free too.

":3vk1m3fl]Playstation3 itself don't have region lock.

It does, if you try to play a foreign movie or PSX/PS2 game it won’t let you. It's just most games don’t bother with it.

The 360 is largely the same but has some seemingly-arbitrary exceptions importing from the US and, most annoyingly, all Japanese games are region-locked (so I need to buy a JP 360 for Ketsui and Death Smiles, awesome).

Quote

North America and Japan use NTSC television standards, or 480i, while Europe uses PAL standards, or 576i. Hence, the US PS3 isn't configured to handle the extra 96 lines of imaging. The solution is simple but costly: all PS3 titles support 720p, so buy an HDTV set.

You are not getting your money worth out of a PS3 if you don't own a HD TV anyway.

I always heard PS3 is region free, and I never heard otherwise. I tried to google for it, and It is indeed, region free. You can play NTSC games on PAL, and vice versa as it appears.

not like I give a fuck anyways, I always play PAL stuff!

Could have sworn there were a few games floating around that were locked.

I don't get the relevance of the HDTV comment.

The PS3 is region locked. PS3 games don’t have a region on them (but theoretically could). If you put something with a different region in it will reject it.

What's with the big breasts?
