not sure how big of a jump % wise my trophies went up to but I just started my 2nd play through and got the Good Father trophy. That made my % go up to 48%

I actually liked that bit, worked quite affectively, you feel like you was shaping into positions

You don't want to know what I used to get past that part

Again, go watch the scene where Shelby sits at his desk burning things, when he reflect back to that moment, while smacking the old dude, you can hear a bell ringing sound in the background. The very same sound that came from the figurine box Lauren was playing with at the time.

This is the only time in that entire event where you did not get to see Shelby. The camera only focus on Lauren, before you could take control of Shelby once more.

Ah, very smart, I was like when the twist came "wait, what, that makes little sense" but as I thought about, it did, that was the one part I couldn't get my head around.

Though one thing I would of liked to had been explained, Ethan's blackout

Furthermore, when Lauren finally does look up to see Shelby again, in spite of the fact that he's in the same location, and inside a closed clock shop, his coat is waving, making it obvious that he was doing something...you just don't know what.

Of course, I only noticed this the second time I played the scene.

Ahhh thats what I didn't do! I didn't have Madison call Jayden. Okay then! At least I can just reload my game to that point.

Thanks guys, hopefully that works as I'd like to start playing it again with different endings as the replay value of this game is immense.

You do not have the option to call Jayden as Madison if you do not hack Shelby's computer!

Good thing I just figured that out, lol.

When you are Madison before his apartment explodes, you put in the password 'Max' and it gives you the address to where Shaun is. His computer is behind the secret wall in the back of his closet next to his desk.

Now that you have the address it gives you the opportunity to call Jayden with this information to help save Ethan/Shaun.

Thats good to know, cause I didn't get the option to call Jayden my first play-through. I'm now on my second play-through, so I'll give that a shot!

anyone else notice in the beginning of "Kramers party", when your walking up to the house, It looks like theres a guy towards the right taking a piss on a tree.

[p1trick82]

anyone else getting a trophy registration error ? I played for while last night and when I tried playing today, my trophies were all gone and I get an error when I try playing the game

[Bear28]

Wow....so worth the many years of waiting!!!

This game is so amazing. I just finished and can't wait to play again. This is like playing the movie Saw and Seven combined.

First play through I decided to think of how I wanted my characters to behave and that would influence my choices.

Ethan - best father in the world, would do anything, etc
Jayden - aloof easy going
Shelby - prick
Madison - would do anything to help, honest, etc

My next play through I think I'll try:

Ethan - jerk, lousy father
Jayden - hardcore Im the best, arrogant
Shelby - opportunist but nice
Madison - mean girl (it starred out what I put before) ;-)

On my first play through I got the happy ending. All characters alive, etc. I can't wait to have one of my characters die and see what happens.

I really struggled with Ethan killing that one guy though. In the end I chose to do it though.

Thanks

[mikejet]

OK, so what is the best ending out of all of them?

My thoughts:
Hassan lives
The crazy religious guy lives
Lauren lives
Shelby dies
Ethan + Madison + Shaun new home
Jayden kicks habit

I'm going to make Jayden give up while investigating. But doing that as long as Madison calls him to tell him the news then it's fine right? He will still goto the warehouse?

[Sagacious Koreo]

Ya, even if Jayden gives up you can still call him with Madison. That's what I did.

I didn't get the option to call Jayden after I made him give up.

Did you have Madison hack the killers computer in his backroom behind the closet?
