is vg chartz doing 1st day sales of this game?

The fight in the courtyard in Chicago....WOW. It's you and like 20-30 guys facing off against 30-40 Chimera, 3 Stalkers, air support, and other crazy stuff!

@leo-j: About a 9 at this point. Maybe like a 9.1 or 9.2. It's better than I expected it to be, and a real blast thus far.

@Soriku: lulz

The sheer number of characters running around should be one of its most outstanding features. Animation (character animation -- meaning quantity of characters, and quality -- higher animation-skeleton bone counts) is one of "those things" that the PS3 should really excel at via the SPUs.

I would imagine Insomniac may have intentionally tried to incorporate features in R2 (like high character counts, and really detailed animations) that showcase the PS3 over its HD rival, which shall remain unnamed such that we don't attract people not playing R2 to the thread. =)

I won't be able to pick R2 up for like two weeks. *sigh*

@Soriku

this proves it WOW, this is just amazing

I need some help to people that are playing it, i'm in twin falls idaho and i'm in some room with a computer and there is water all around with some scattered boxes and pipes. And i have no idea what i need to do, there appears to be a switch on the computer but i can't activate it.

There's nothing in the water that you can jump to?

I can't think of the exact room you're in, but I could go try and find it via level select.

is it me or can i see spoilers that aren't tagged.....?

....jeez

I just pre-ordered the game. Gonna pick it up on my way home from work. Wow it feels good to be in this thread. There's another hot thread by megaman2 where us Sony defenders are fighting for Res 2.

I wish I could see the neighborhood leave. >_>

I saved and quit, then i loaded the game up again, now i have a guy with me and the story progressed when i entered the room this time.  So i'm not sure what happened to the guy last time.
