    Onimusha 3 looks fairly nice on the pc at high resolutions, so i'm holding hope for DMC3...

    No, it's genuine NekkidBibleMan, www.play.com have had them listed for release since Christmas. I'll definetely look into picking up Resident Evil 4 but I wouldn't be fussed on Devil May Cry tbh, not my cup of tea after experiencing the first one.

    DMC 3 is fantastic but wouldn't really suit the PC format imo.

    Laguna, it's not that it isn't your cup of it, it's because you're crap at games :p

    Pfft, I'm class at games..

    Nah, seriously, I completed DMC 1 easily enough, I just found the game repetitive and there wasn't much else to it bar the constant hacking and slashing and I feel that DMC 3 would be 1 again lather/rinse/repeat.

    You shouldn't have played it on easy difficulty. The is far more strategy to fights if you don't go for the easy way out.

    Actually, just looking at play.com now, and it says that Resident Evil 4 is out on the 2nd of June. Oh well, at least I've got Oblivion to keep me away from boredom. :)

    just started RE4 on the cube
    seems clunky so far. i keep wanting the camera to zoom out and the c-stick camera control is backward compared to how i want it (cant be changed)

    is there a button i can press to make him run?

    C stick aiming can be inverted in the options. Also hold the B button to run.

    I never actually bothered with C stick aiming... it seems to have been thrown in as an extra, rather than being an integral part of the controls.

    pressing down+B at the same time does a handy 180 degree spin btw

    Essential for me...

    Turning with the C-Stick is faster too, for those tight moments with Dr. Salvador.

    I always play inverted as well.

    Don't know how you survived without C stick aiming in Resi 4 tman. Headshots take down enemies very effectively (not to mention the fantastic head explosions) especially the buggers with the creatures sticking out of their heads.

    Although once you get to the red-robed guys near the end of the game (instant fat parasite when you head shot them)... i prefer a non-spreading weapon straight to the chest. Or grenades :)

    Shot to the foot or ankle hobbles them, first half of the game all you can do is a spinning kick off it, second half allows you to supplex which has a 50% chance of destroying the head (never spawns a parasite), saves untold amounts of ammo.

    I never even realised that there was C-stick aiming in Resi4. Mouse aim will make the game a piece of piss though.

    ehm, by "c stick" i meant the right analogue stick... the one with a "c" on it:p
    i only ever touch the left stick when playing resi4
