    The default answer is 'use the bomb disc'
    The game wants you to use bombs against tanks.

    When I had to beat the game on hard to get the trophy the tanks were kicking my ass. I finally started using stasis disk (which makes you invisible to enemies when equipped and not moving) to slowly sneak up on them, and then switched to bomb to destroy them, back to stasis to hide, then to bomb, and so on.

    I guess you don't have stasis yet. You might be able to play in the game grid until you level up to the point where you get it. I don't remember if disk upgrades were based on any kind of story level progress, I don't think so. I did most of my leveling up offline, but several people I've played against did most of theirs online. In fact I can think of one person who constantly kicks my ass and I'm not sure if he even bothered to finish story mode.

    Wait, are you driving a tank yet? When driving a tank I used heavy disc. I then destroyed one tank at a time, then back tracked to a "refill arrow", then attacked another tank, back tracked to a refill arrow, and so on. There were some places in the game where I had to just drive through and go for it, but not many if I recall correctly.

    Playstation's Welcome Back program seems pretty generous, IMHO:

    Ummmm... Didn't the exact same thing happen to Xbox Live in 2007 or so? And not for nothing, but Xbox Live cost $60 a year and PSN is free. This is a great loyalty program from Playstation considering that it cost it's users nothing and generates no revenue for Sony. You're kidding yourself if you think XBL is invulnerable to the same type of attacks.

    I already have inFAMOUS and Little Big Planet. I've heard really good things about Dead Nation. Does anyone have any input about WipeOut HD and Stardust?

    I don't have either. But I have considered buying both at different times. They've both got good reviews. They're not crap games.

    I want to say that Wipeout uses true 1080p graphics while most games only use 720p, but it was last year when I was looking at these games so I don't really remember.

    I dug it back in 2009. Looking forward to inFAMOUS 2 next month. It's a third person action shooter in a comic book superhero style. Cole McGrath is a bike messenger in Empire City when a device called the Ray-Sphere explodes and gives him super powers over electricity. He looks aftr his friends and help them to rebuild thier lives in the devastated city and at the same time, kicks some serious street gang ass. The game gives you a choice of being selfish and looking for yourself and immediate friends or do what's best for the city at large. If you're an action gamer, inFAMOUS is the best game on that kist, IMHO. IGN gave it a 9.5 out of 10.

    I have Super Stardust HD, and it is worth getting. I think I may have even done a review of it here. Searching.....

    Nope, it's gone. :(
