I can't get past Malefor in his shield stage in the PS3 version x3 I'd get so close, but then I'd die x3

I'm sorry but... Overrated as hell. Once you go multiplayer you never go back. I seriously can't play it unless one friends is there.

Never played the DS version, and I'm not particularly fond of the console version.

I've played both 'A New Beginning' and 'The Eternal Night' all the way through. It's not that I don't understand the story, I do, it's just very poorly written, in my opinion of course.
