Now free for us Playstation Plus members!

PSN+ is like a shit rental service where you have no say in what games that you get.
Also with the "instant game collection" gimmick you get the "fickle idiot's Ipod syndrome" where they load up the player with anything and everything. I.e. a shit load of stuff they probably have zero interest, just because they have so much space.
It's a waste of money IMO. The "game lucky dip" is too much of a wild card. You're better off outright buying permanent copies of games that you'd actually want.

I got a year and a half for free and have at least full 5 games (so far, there's been more over the years that I'd love, too) that I would recommend. Hell, Spec Ops is half the price of a year's sub anyway. They also give discounts on titles and offer the fantastic 1 hour game trials. It's a sweet service @ $4 a month.

Wow. That is all I have to say. This is THE GOTY. Has to be. No game has moved me so far into my mind, ever. This really earns its "M" rating, but not for its gore, for its actual mature content. As in, it has something important to say. Supposedly, Take Two is partly blaming The Line for losing money last fiscal quarter as sales for this were lackluster, which is complete bullshit. This game needs to be played by anyone who likes to make virtual guns go boom, and I commend Sony for making it free. I feel guilty not showering the devs with my meager chef wages, and I think I am going to go get a new copy just to cleanse my soul.
I feel dirty after this. I made about every horrible decision the game allowed me to. Willy Pete, allowing Riggs to burn, shooting the civ who stole water, shooting the civs who surrounded my teammate in chapter 14, etc... and I shot Konrad at the end.
I assume there are multiple endings, a game like this almost demands them, and I want to see them all. Without Youtube. I want them to be 'my'endings. I finished this game in 2 sittings. I haven't played a game with this much gusto in a long time. It reminds me why I play games in the first place. I got my PS3 almost out of obligation. My PC has been down for a year and I got rid of all my consoles save the Wii. I am a gamer, dammit, but I was burned out. This game put a fire in my belly and brought that passion I used to have back. I love The Line and you all need to play it.
Hahahaha just waited the credits out. What'd you all do in the Epilogue In for a penny, in for a pound. I shot 'em all/

The first time I did that, but it was goddamn hard. There are 3 ways to resolve that IIRC. As far as seeing different endings goes, I'm pretty sure that once you've finished the game you can load the last level and epilogue and see everything the game has to offer.

There are multiple endings, but all the decisions regarding them are made in the last five minutes so I wouldn't suggest replaying the entire game just for each of the four endings. There are three ways the encounter with the US relief team can play out, and another ending if you don't shoot Konrad.

Cool. That makes it easier! I hate slogging through a game 8,000 times to see the endings (*ahem* Silent Hill 2), but I would for this. Going to go try it now, thanks.
