Koray Savas 2,251 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Again, just leave one controller plugged into the USB. When the one you use dies, swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karelm 2,915 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I orchestrated it! Glad it was released and my unbiased opinion is that the music rocks! It is for large orchestra. I didn't realize it would be released so soon but woohoo!Cool! I've been a big fan of the game and score ever since it first came out. I didn't pick up the soundtrack album back then because ordering online and international shipping were still new, expensive and scary to me, and now it's of course long out of print. Very much hoping for a release of the new recording.With the PS3 the game updates were automatic just going in but now it seems a manual optionDoes that mean they finally no longer force me to wait for half an hour for it to update whenever I have friends over and just want to quickly play a game with them?Did you see the documentary? It has a lot of information on the orchestral recording including video from the scoring sessions. The orchestra was fantastic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 PS4 is definately a step up graphically.Textures are sharp and detailed, scrolling is smooth. It has the edge missing from the last gen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,399 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 hmm, makes sense.Buying a second controller just to stay charged seems idiotic and wasteful to me. I've never had an issue with a single pad, I just plug it into my phone charger when I think on to. And people fret when they see they're on one bar which is pointless because one bar actually lasts for about 2-3 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Mark 3,631 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 we'll see if it lasts for a long gaming sessionI recommend reading this before playing Dragon Age Inquisitionhttp://kotaku.com/a-beginners-guide-to-all-things-dragon-age-1658487212 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 A full charge will last for about 10 hours, or 3 evenings of gaming.I also have an extended USB adaptor cable to play wired if necessary, but that's used once a blue moon. £2 on eBay.

Not Mr. Big 4,641 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I usually just have the controller hooked up while I'm playing. It saves me the effort of constantly checking the controller's battery-life.On an unrelated note, I've been having a blast revisiting Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy. Like KOTOR, this series could benefit immeasurably from a new sequel on a modern engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,211 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Did you see the documentary? It has a lot of information on the orchestral recording including video from the scoring sessions. The orchestra was fantastic! Haven't seen that part yet, but it's on my watch list. Jedi Outcast made at least at the time, the best, most organic use of Williams' existing score recordings I've heard in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Mark 3,631 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 it's just annoying to have a cable dangling from the PS3 and have to charge it every few hours. It's almost less hassle to leave it plugged inThe controller should have taken AA batteries like the xbox360oneAlso about the console power on button. Is it supposed to be touch sensitive or you have to press it lightly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 My first lap on Need For Speed 2. Still a bit rough around the edges I'm sure, compared to the more seasoned gamers. But not bad, I'd say.I did notice taxi's dont get out of your way when you approach them, which seems like a bug to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding battery support would just make it more bulky and heavier. And yes, the power and eject buttons are just touch sensitive areas, not actual buttons. I never use those, just use the PS button on the controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
