Depends on what option you take. I get unlimited rentals with 2 disks at a time of DVD's, Blu-Rays or games for £14.99 per month. I don't think the £5 pound is an unlimited option and the PS3 can only be used with unlimited options so no £5 off I'm afraid. :(

Why should they apologise you pick the films. ;)

Yes well done love film. It wasn't their fault PSN went down so great credit to them for this gesture. I just had a free film credit this week as it was a year to the day since I subscribed so they are definitely in my good books. :)

Yes the game is cross platform. You will be able to coop with PS3, PC and Mac gamers.

@ Xof
Ha ha, I think your being overly sensitive. I just thought you were being a little negative towards a game that has yet to be released. Regarding the disagrees, well everyone as their own opinion and not everyone is going to agree over others comments.
Yes I do know the first game, even though it's a decade old. I got that and its expansion pack, the mongol invasions. Robert T Smith is one of the game designers at Creative Assembly and the first game he ever worked o...

I just noticed through your comment history that every comment you make seems more negative than positive towards the game in question. Are there no games you like? ;)
All joking aside, I do agree that the Total War games are flawed but I think it's a bit harsh to criticize Shogun 2 before it's released. I don't see many strategy games trying to do what the Total War series are trying to do. So I would prefer to compliment them for that than highlight their failings (Well...

My argument was purely based on theology not 'franchises'. Olympian gods were more powerful than those beings or deities of those games because people believed in them. And a deity is only as powerful as the amount of people that believe in it. My argument was slightly tongue in cheek. To question what game characters are the most powerful is the only real arbitrary distinction here. :D

I would agree with the argument that the god's of olympus were lesser gods compared to those of other religions, as they often had similar weaknesses and flaws to those of mortals. But angels were just conduits for the word of god. They never really have been attributed to have any powers of their own in the Bible, only in Films & Computer Games are they presented as badass heavenly warriors. ;)

I can't comment on Ninja Gaiden because I have never played it but out of the others the order technically is:
1. Kratos
2. Bayonetta
3. Dante
Why? Well Kratos fights Gods which are the highest tier of all the religious pantheons. Bayonetta fights angels which are servants of the gods, and thus considered less powerful. Dante on the the other hand predominantly fights demons. In Christianity (And I use Christianity because Dante's demons tend more towar...

You can't just bash Sims 3 because your laptop is too underpowered to run it properly! Oh, silly me, this author has. A gamers review? Me thinks not.

Oooohhh! I think I hit a sensitive spot, some of you yanks got no sense of humour LOL!

First thing, that system spec isn't very old as the 1055T as only recently been released. Secondly how are you using GT 240 for PhysX, I was under the impression you need a primary Nvidia card to enable a second for PhysX.

What, you got 3 gaming PC's and all the consoles, wow. Bet you haven't got a girlfriend though, lol! I've been a PC gamer for about 17 years and a Console gamer for about 2. But I have to disagree with you belittling the consoles they are good machines that offer similar experiences to the PC versions. I find that some games are better on PC's, i.e. Strategy games, role-playing games and FPS'. But consoles do produce some types of games that are not match...

I could not agree any more. I have been a big FPS fan since the original Doom but have felt that the FPS genre as been lacking something for a few years. I blame titles like Deus Ex and System Shock 2, they took the basic FPS mechanism and bolted a role-playing mechanic to them. Deus Ex also brought a decent stealth mechanic to the genre and didn't require you to shoot everything to complete levels. I expected these themes to continue and develop but FPS' on the whole continued with t...

Having bought the standard version of RE5 I was a little gutted that my version would not be getting Move support. But then I decided not to have a go at Capcom when I remembered I had actually bought RE5 for my XB360 and not my PS3. So I guess I got no one to blame for the lack of Move support but myself, LOL.

'there is no such thing as a better game controller'

'a better game controller would be a Kinect as precise and responsive as move is'

@ ingiomar - That's a contradiction, is it not?

My initial thoughts about Move and Kinect were that they are designed to try and capture some of Nintendo's large share of casual gamers. After seeing E3 I believe that Microsoft proved me correct, they showed little evidence of hardcore g...

I hope it isn't an RTS. I have played Civ versions 1,2,3 & 4 and many of the add on packs. And every one of those was a turn based strategy game, not an RTS. Fan's of turn based strategy games, like myself, know there is a big difference between the two types. Civ just happens to be one of my all time favourite games. I had the first one for my Commodore Amiga 500, that's how long I've been playing Civ, lol.

Mista T, I thought you were referring to Kinect. Just as well you edited your post.

It does look like Sony are going to push core games on Move more than I expected. I am still going to wait awhile to see if the games show up before committing myself to paying for one. But it does look more promising after seeing their conference.

@Mister T, can't argue with that. Sounds pretty sound logic to me. Maybe someone should tell Microsoft though.

Sony have been having trouble keeping up with PS3 demand in the last six months. They were hardly going to cut the price of it while that situation continued.
