i have played previous resident evil games and i havent enjoyed one since the outbreak series on ps2. i did not care for 4 at all and in general i havent been a big fan of here is 10 bullets and 1000000 zombies, have fun. gameplay of previous resident evil games.
this game takes the series in a new dirrection, with a "dont let any zombie survive" attitude and style. no more having to run away from zombies becuase there is plenty of ammo, plenty of guns, and even weapon upgrades and a ton of unlockables that include unlimited ammo for each weapon (gun type only, no infintie grenades) character/creature figures, new characters to play online vs modes, new modes of play, higher difficulties, alternate costumes among other things including (which i think is neat) you can unlock different items (character statues for chris, sheva, the other girl whose name i cant remember, bettles, treasure chest and i think 1 more)for your playstation home house (interactive virtual world online that is free from playstation on the xcross media bar (playstation home).). it is kinda dumb and pointless but it is neat to have that little extra feature as a reward for beating certain aspects of the game. the game is definatly my favorite game at this time and i have played xbox 360 (which was a peice of junk cuase i went through 4 of them), and am new to ps3 (with in 2 months) but already own about 15 new games and have played others. this is the best game i have played in a while.
the online co-op is what sets the game apart from being just another game, if it was just a single player game it would still be good and worth buying, but it would not be what it is right now in my book. the computer AI is not good enough to do the harder modes unless you want to be a full time babysitter and stay right next to them 99% of the time which is doable but a pain, also is it me or the higher the difficulty the less your partner does...on hard they wont even pick up gold anymore..almost as lazy as real people..although i dont know anyone that wouldnt pick up free money.
the online co-op makes up for that and replaces the lazy ai with a living, thinking being capable of common sence, for the most part anyways, which breathes new life in to harder difficulties and you have someone to communicate with on the headset which is better than playing alone, and you can work out strategies and help eachother find hidden BSAA emblems and other goods that one may otherwise miss alone.
i like the new dirrection, the game is far from hard when starting out, the controls take some getting used to but in the end i give it 100% and a must own for co-op, online capabilities and fun factor. by far the best game out there at this time for ps3 in my opinion.

What's great about it: co-op, ammo-a-plenty,
What's not so great: not a thing, though i hate the interactive movies..movie time is bathroom break time..not push a button time
I would recommend this to a friend!

i have been a fan of the sacred series since it came out, at the time sacred 1 was the next diablo game that blizzard, at the time, had no interest in becuase they were focusing on the starcraft and warcraft series. needless to say i was excited when i heard this was coming out and 2 people can play on one ps3 becuase my fiance and i had fun with games like champions of norrath 1 and 2 for ps2. all the hype about the game and rumors of gameplay made it seem that much more appealing. unfortunatly the rumors were wrong which i will cover now. there was a rumor that you could play 2 people on one console and 2 people online at the same time. this is not correct, 2 people on one console can not play online. also you can not trade items (or drop them, instead you destroy them) when playing 2 people on one console. you also need to have 2 profiles on the ps3 in order to play co-op on one system which is unnessesary. the instructions are not clear and the instructions also state that 2 player co-op one one system the characters can exchange items through the Hero chest, this is also not true at this time. also when my fiance and i played together and saved the game, it saved her character completely, but it did not save my characters items that i aquired, but it saved my character level. i got the game on the 12th of may, the release date becuase i had it on pre-order. so far i dont think many people have the game, it is already back ordered on bestbuy.com and bestbuy didnt have it releasing until 5-14-09. at this time there are no patches on the PS3 version that correct the problems, i have not played online multiplayer yet due to lack of people that have the game becuase it seems not many were shipped out at the time of origional release. if you have played sacred 1 for pc, you will also be let down becuase they took all but the seraphim characters, the new characters are not that great, i miss the battlemage big time. the new characters are mediocre, some of the abilities are cool, but i miss the big spells of the battlemage. the graphics on the game are good, and there are plenty of items to find and alot of quests to keep you busy. though the game is lacking on the single console multiplayer at this time the game is worth picking up due to PS3's lack of RPG games. if you are a fan of the diablo series it is worth looking into and if you have played sacred on the pc, the only let down may be the multiplayer experiance and the new characters. hopefully knowing ps3 there will be an update to correct the problems but it is all up to ascaron since they would need to put the patch out. this is their first console game i beleive, all in all a pretty good first shot.
What's great about it: its an rpg along the lines of diablo 2
What's not so great: multiplayer needs improvement

My shoulder button on my ds lite stopped working. Can you fix them?
My L and R buttons have stop working. Can bestbuy fix my ds lite and how much will it cost?
here is a link that tells how to fix them and what you will need, also if you call some game stores they may be able to repair them or maybe even bestbuy geeksquad can repair them for you, you would need to call the stores for pricing information though, hope this helps.

Do best buy buy video games?
Do best buy buy video games?
bestbuy is currently testing buying video games in a few stores in texas, but it has not been decided on if it will go into every best buy store or not. so far it is still in the testing phase.

In this Sunday's paper , I looked in the Best Buy magazine and it said that you can trade in your ds lite for a dsi xl. Do I still have to pay money?
How much if I do? It said to go to www.bestbuy.com/gametradein but it never said anything about trading it in for a dsi xl.
best buy accepts trades on older electronics. the prices they give you are not that great. you will need to enter the information on the website to get a price, i assure you it wont be that much.

ps3 backward compatibility

only the older models, when ps3 first came out. i beleive wikipedia has a chart that lists what models were backwards compatable. the new 80 gigs are not, i beleive the older 40 and 60 gigs were the only models with backwards compatability.

ps3 price cut
is there going to be any kind of bundle or price cut coming this year that is less than $400?
as much as romors point to a price cut i highly doubt it will happen, especially since they have had rumors of a price cut for as long as i can remember. also since the whole activision threatening to pull out and the ceo of sony basically stating "how logical is it to lose money on every system sold" a price cut isnt happening any time soon.
if it makes the purchase any easier, when you consider an xbox 360 with a harddrive for 300, a wireless adapter for 99, and a charge kit for the controller for 20 and 60 for an xbox live membership...you are already looking at more than a ps3, and you get blue ray as well, which i dont really care about blue ray. also if you are willing to pay $40 as a one time fee, there is a download where you can do netflix on ps3 along with a few other movie sites. it is called play on and i personally use it and it was worth it.
sorry to say that a price cut isnt coming anytime soon, though i agree it would be nice, then i would buy a second ps3, but i highly doubt it will happen anytime soon.

Call of Duty 3 ?
I am looking for a wwii era war/first person shooter game this looks to be the best(Besides battlefield 1943) is it ? (I am really clueless)
call of duty world at war is a WW era game, it features countries like the US/japan (which you play the us), and russian/germain (which you play russia) campains. the online multiplayer is great. i havent played 1943 yet, so i wouldnt know what it is like though i know it is multiplayer only.
hope this answers your questions, and if you decide to purchase this game, look forward to seeing you on the field.

Play Station Store ?
I am looking in to getting a PS3, what is play station store and how does it work? (how do i put in money?)
the playstation store is where you can purchase themes, games, add-on content, rent/purchase movies and watch videos/tv shows. you have to either purchase a playstation network card in various amounts, or use a credit/debit card to add funds. you get the option to add funds when you add something to your cart and confirm the check out, then it will ask you to add funds.

can i buy trade in games from best buy that have been traded in buy customers ?
at this time i dont think best buy has started to sell used games yet. i know they have kiosk's in dallas and austin that purchase used games. it is something recent to my knowledge, and i work in bestbuys call center, so far there is no word on when they will sell the games to customers..or exactly what they are doing with the games so far for that matter. granted i am no one big in the company but asking around no one has heard anything as of yet.

corrupted data
my ps3 says the data is corrupted what can i do to fix it? i start games then they freeze help!!!
it sounds like you have either downloaded a bad file, turned the game off when it was saving, or got a virus from browsing the internet. my suggestion would be to wipe the hard drive and start over. Simply remove the hard drive from your PS3, and turn on the console. It should display a screen saying the hard drive will need to be reformatted. Then, plug the hard drive back into your PS3, and allow it to reformat. Your save game data will be erased but the system should work again, also here is a link to the same solution but worded differently. http://www.xomba.com/ps3_help_froze_up_ps3_hard_drive_reformat

In-camera cropping and rechargeable batteries?
I want to buy a digital camera $200 or less. it needs to have in-camera cropping and more than 7 megapixels. aslo, i would prefer for it to be 4x or more optical zoom and can record sound. i know its kind of specific, sorry about that
you are lucky. the perfect camera that fits that description is 1) commonly found in all best buy stores, 2) the highest rated camera on our website and highly rated on sites like cnet, and other sites. i did about 5 months of reasearch to find the perfect camera for my fiance, but i cant afford the price of a tv or car for a camera. the item i came up with is a canon PowerShot 10.0-Megapixel Digital ELPH Camera - Silver . the sku number for the item is 8800577. if you place those numbers in the search for box in bestbuys website it will take you straight to the item.
i personally bought this camera after researching and also wrote a review on it as well, it should be on the site under the item with in 72 hours. it is perfect for the price (200). you wont regret it and it has all the features you are looking for.
