No, the rest of the Sinister Six was there, they had just already been defeated by the time Spider-Man and Green Goblin began fighting in earnest.


By the time Pete got there, so they didn't fight him, only Goblin did. (I'll grant you the they were there factor, even as non-factors. My mistake)

ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN SPOILERS... not that this topic isn't full already of those.

From: ShadowHalo17 | #031
I didn't read it, but I think the Sinister Six fought him on Aunt May's front lawn and Peter died, unmasked, in May's arms. On the front lawn. With neighbors and everyone watching.


Only Goblin was actually there. Pete had gotten himself shot (taking a bullet meant for Captain America) and when he got to his house, Goblin had knocked out Iceman and Human Torch. Pete sent Aunt May away with Gwen, started fighting Goblin, realized he was too wounded, woke up Torch. Realized that was a bad idea when Osborn absorbed Torch's power. MJ stole a van and ran it into Goblin, at which point Pete picked it up and slammed it down on Norman's head a few times, before finally collapsing.

To elaborate - the graphics are redrawn and the voices are rerecorded, and I'm told there's some kind of expanding to the story, but at its heart it's the fourth version of the same game (Silver Star, Silver Star Story Complete, and Legend being the earlier three). It even uses the same FMVs as the PS2 version.

These 20 games won't be worth $80 to me. If I'm gonna go for the games and the $170 price, I'll need to be really confident that it would work.

But heck, even if it doesn't, I can just return the thing for a full refund.


Do stores in your area let you return opened merchandise? Because you have to have accessed the eShop to get the free games.

cant you buy it the day before to get the games, then come back the day of and do some low price guarantee thing to get $80 back in some stores?

Even if they didn't cover that for whatever reason, you could always just buy another after the price drop, and then return it on the $250 receipt.


Might run into problems with the serial numbers in that case - I don't know whether they do or not, but if I were designing the system I'd make sure there was some way to check those for just such occasions as this.

I don't even know what tickets are/what they do.


They're awarded for completing specific achievements in specific games (also, on Steam - link your Steam to your Facebook, recommend a game, etc.). Each one you earn gives you an entry in a contest to win the top ten games on your wishlist, and sets of three can be redeemed for add-ons to specific games (or the entire game, in the case of Alien Breed 2).

*Dragon Age spoilers*

Apparently repeatedly screaming "BUT THY CLANSMEN ARE DYING" while killing their Keeper still gets you to side with the elves, huh. If I had sided with the werewolves, could I have recruited them or is it just the races with the treaties that can be recruited?

Also, Alistair rep points up. Thought he was a Lawful idiot, but he actually approved of killing the Keeper and sided with the werewolves in the end.

Also... is the Urn missable if I don't look for it?


The Urn is one of the main quests, so no. And yes, you could've gotten werewolves; three of the main quests can result in different armies depending on how you resolve them.
