Official Xbox 360 thread

[steelersfan43]

Well the old one got lost and it was all messed up with the no post exists error, so I made a new one.

Does anyone know of any upcoming bmx games for the 360?

[draftguru151]

I rented Lost Planet. It was pretty good, nothing amazing though.

[NIN1984]

Crackdown is ok but it gets kind of boring rather fast...

I'm hooked on NBA 2k7

[M.O.T.H.]

I'm going to buy MLB 2K7 tomorrow.

[slightlyaraiderfan]

hmm Looks like GH2 got pushed back to early April, i'm really looking forward to that one.

[Caddy]

Assassins Creed seems to be gaining a lot of popularity considering it hasn't been released yet.

[M.O.T.H.]

Alone in the Dark... Resident Evil esque.


Any way... Release date says 3/1 but, I havent heard anything about it. i doubt it comes out tomorrow but, I'm hoping it's still gonna come out in March. It looks awesome.

[M.O.T.H.]

Me:

Madden 07
NBA 2K7

Same here, it was alright but I didn't really get into it. I may be a little biased because i'm not usually into those type of games.

[Tubby]

For anyone that has MLB 2k7, how is it? IGN gave it a 7.9, but I've heard that it is much more deserving than that.

How many ******s do you play on? i want to start a franchise but, i went to get a good number of ******s, so i could bring the bench in. Obviously, the more minites you play you gotta increase the level of difficulty or you'll score like 200 a game. I dont know why but, I'm all about realism with sports games.

[M.O.T.H.]

why cant i type mi-nutes...ugh that's annoying.

[terribletowel39]

Assassin's Creed will be the best looking game on 360 or PS3. not only will it look great it is going to be a bad ass game.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assassin's_Creed

[Vikes99ej]

I just have Madden 07, NCAA Football 07, Gears or War, and WWE Smackdown vs. Raw. I want to get Guitar Hero too.

[M.O.T.H.]

Alan Wake will look better.

[terribletowel39]

Alan Wake will look better.

i don't know about that, granted i have never heard of it before and i just looked up some screenshots of it and it does look damn good, i don't know if it will look better. no way to tell right now. either way i think this will be a good year to own a gaming system.

^^^^Two Alan Wake Trailers^^^^

Set for release late 2007.

[terribletowel39]

i am gonna have to check those out later. at work now and youtube is locked down. but the pics did look crazy good.

[frogstomp]

Alan Wake and Assassins Creed will not look as good as you all think, simply because of the massive environments.

They'll look great, of course, but games with huge environments like these usually have to offset some graphics for load times and game speeds. (Oblivion... looked very nice, but there were a lot better looking games.)

[Shiver]

Best games on the way; Bioshock, Assassin's Creed and Mass Effect. I bet the former two are ignored, in the wake of Halo 3's dominance.

Nah. They will both be out for a little while before Halo 3, and both have their own hype machines rolling. Bioshock's isn't nearly as large as Assassin's Creed, however... so if one game "fails", it will be Bioshock. I still don't see it, though, seeing as most people already loved the other games in the series.

[Caddy]

My Games

Ghost Recon
Madden 07
Saints Row
WWE
Gears of War
Battlefield Modern Combat

GT: Prymal Thirteen

[frogstomp]

Oh yeah.

My Games:

F.E.A.R.
Splinter Cell D.A.
2006 FIFA World Cup

I had Oblivion, NBA 2K6, NBA Live 06, LOTR, and PDZ, but traded them in.

[terribletowel39]

ok i know GOW is still the top game out there does anyone every play on regular basis and need a body to fill a team or something. i play with a couple of ppl but they don't play too often and i don't like playing with newbs, so yall hit me up if yall want to play. gamertag is terribletowel39.

[familyguy555]

I only own Gears of War, NBA Live 07, and Madden -7 but I rent a ton from gamefly

[JF4]

I really wanna try MVP NCAA Baseball 07. I loved the game last year and have always liked the EA baseball games over the 2K series. Does anyone know if the game is out for the 360? or is only out for the regular consoles?

[smittyjs]

I'm loving Crackdown right now, been playing it for the last week.
XBL GT smitty js

Games:
Rented Tony Hawk Project 8 today
GRAW(really have never played it that much)
PGR3 (Pretty damn good, haven't played it in a while)
Hitman Blood Money (Great game, but to short)
Call of Duty2 (Was my #1 360 game for live intill about three months ago or so)
Madden 07 (NCAA 07 out did this year...., but is fun online)
NCAA 07(Great games, but some annoying flaws in it)
Test Drive Unlimited(good game, some flaws, and one of the few games with to big of a map:eek: )
Splinter Cell Double Agent (pretty good, but didn't play it that much)
Saints Row (Love this game, online could have been better, but still very good)
Call of Duty 3 (Great game online and a pretty good single player, haven't played it in awhile though)
Gears of War(Great single player, but didn't really like Online that much)
Crackdown (Most of the time i really don't like games like this, but this one is pretty damn good)
Rainbow six Vegas(Very good game all around, #1 game online IMO)

[M.O.T.H.]

Just bought MLB 2K7.

I'm happy to say it's solid.

Three issues.

1. Rosters still need a lot of tinkering (Laroche still a Brave among others)

2. Too many Home Runs... Once again HRs are way too easy to hit

3. The Wind. When you step into the batters box, sometimes it looks like you stepped into a wind tunnel or something. Your jersey is constantly flapping about as if you were playing in hurricane-like winds... very strange. This happens very frequently as well.

[steelersfan43]

Why hasnt this http://www.xzone.cz/covergame/1580.jpg

been talked about very much? I never heard about it until today and I downloaded the demo and its freaking amazing. buying it tommorow.

[frogstomp]

Here is a second Bioshock vid. My god it looks amazing.

http://www.gametrailers.com/umwatcher.php?id=46173

[draftguru151]

Wow that does look pretty sick. Seems like a bit too much for me though.

[frogstomp]

Wow that does look pretty sick. Seems like a bit too much for me though.

Haha, yeah, it will take a bit to get used to, but you'll get eased into it. This is pretty far into the game... if you took on a big daddy right away, well, you'd die.

[Charm City Byrdgang]

Whats with the little Blood sucking child?

[TH3]

bioshock looks so awesome

[frogstomp]

Whats with the little Blood sucking child?

Watch the first video, that will explain it to you. Essentially, she is a "Little Sister", who takes the matter from dead bodies and turns it into Adam, or the money type stuff of this society. This is why she has that Big Daddy following her around, so people cannot exploit her.

i beg to differ. i read an article on how "alan wake" would be amazing graphically speaking even though the huge environment. the problem is just that the 360 version will suffer because of its lack of power. the ps3 and a nice computer set up will be amazing. and assasins creed is my most looked forward to game. ps3 blows minds.(see motorstorm) 360 is ok but is trumped. admit it.

*sigh*

Well, it's nice to know you're uninformed.

Where is the 360 lacking power? I would like to hear this, seeing as it's common knowledge (among intelligent people) that they have almost the same power, and that the 360 actually has more RAM, which is what really helps in such huge environments...

As for the 360 being trumped, then why would Assassin's Creed have better AI on the 360? The developers have stated the 360 version would be better. Also, look at the Oblivion problems on the PS3.

http://pc.ign.com/articles/736/736396p1.html (even though IGN has a historical PS bias...)
http://www.gamesetwatch.com/2007/01/ps3_oblivion_seeing_double_to.php

Anyways, I'm not saying Alan Wake won't look amazing, I'm just saying it won't look as good as games that have smaller environments.

Anyways, I'm not saying Alan Wake won't look amazing, I'm just saying it won't look as good as games that have smaller environments.well thats a given because there is a certain give and take with graphics and the size of a game. You can only go so big with the environment before it takes away from the graphics. either because there is a deadline and they cut corners to make it and skimp on the graphics or to appease players with no loading (like alan wake is said to have) they have to keep things at certain level to keep it seemless.

Now on to the trumping. this might be an overstatement but I wasn't refering to the gaming alone. See i use my ps3 as my media center.(i have switched out the 40 gb hd for a 180 gb hd.) anyways blu-ray was the main reason i bought the ps3 opposed to the 360. One of the new medias (blu-ray or hd dvd) will go under due to neither one being solely endorsed by hollywood. so who ever gets the better titles is going to win out. although the blu ray is a better component i see where it has a chance of being phased out due to the before stated information. and with motorstorm, it is supposed to be the best game so far and said to have yet to scratch the surface of what is possible with the cell processors. im not saying the 360 isnt a great gaming system and has better titles at the moment. but for what i want and need the ps3 is the better machine.

OH MY GOD YOUR FIRST PARAGRAPH WAS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID BEFORE. You are officially the most useless poster ever.

As for your second paragraph, everyone knows the Cell was a crappy choice because it isn't ideal for gaming. Gaming wise, the 360 is more powerful. I use my 360 for gaming. Not a tough choice.

[TH3]

Froggie strikes again

[tEk]

You can choose your 360 machine if you wish. We all know the ps3 is lacking in the game titles department, and the fact that they did not seal up exclusives for alan wake and assassins creed will hurt them. the 360 has great titles which i have played and ejoyed but the developers have had time to work with titles to make them great and cohesive with the system where as the ps3 is rather new and raw. I think that in a year, once the ps3 gets some better titles (which two are already coming out this year) it will surpass the 360. You have to look at the bigger picture. The ps3 is entirely different then anything the game developers have seen. It will take them a while to get accustomed to the best way to code the game. While I agree that the 360 is fun to game on now just wait for the ps3 to drop some good games. (i will come back in here when assassin's creed is released to discuss.)

[TH3]

what are the chances the PS3 Blue Ray burns the system out????

[tEk]

what are the chances the PS3 Blue Ray burns the system out????
i am confused. burns out as in fries the wholes system(not likely at all) or burns out as in the blu-ray goes extinct(depends on the titles that are exclusive to it)

Alan Wake was never supposed to be on the PS3, and never will be. I have no idea what you're talking about there.

The PS3 isn't as new and raw is everyone say it is. Are you forgetting when it was originally supposed to be released? Developers have been working with dev kits for almost as long as the 360. The system changed a little, yes, but it's still roughly the same. People are overrating this "new system" thing.

As for giving it a year, the hardware will not change. The PS3 will still be a computer, and the 360 will still be a gaming system.

[Tubby]

The main reason I dont like the PS3 is because sony doesnt have any good exclusive games. Nintendo has the nintendo games, Microsoft has a whole slew of great exclusive games, but all the PS3 has is Resistance: Fall of Man (which I've heard isnt even very fun). As for multiplatform games, nearly every one that has come out is better on the 360 than the PS3.

Metal Gear? Only one of the greatest series of all time..

[frogstomp]

PS3 also has Metal Gear, GT, and Final Fantasy.

However, the 360 has Halo, Forza/PGR, Fable.

[Windy]

i never played 2k6. the one thing i dont like about the game is the names. all the minor leaguers have different names. example: felix pie= something like frank pierce, alex gordon=allan graham, etc. you can change the names if you want too though. dice k is named dennis.

Haven't played but EA sports blows, NBA 2k7 is addicting. Anyways during my lunch break I bought Burnout and Splinter Cell and will play them when I get home, are they good games for the price $20 each?

I have Splinter Cell and I didnt play it much when I first bought it but Ive been playing it alot lately. You get sucked into the storyline with it. Its like a movie, pretty good game one of my favorites.

[liquidswords]

Splinter Cell multiplayer is amazing. Definitely worth buying for that.

NBA 2K7 is the best sports game I've ever played.

[Big Mike]

[derza222]

My brothers buying a game this weekend, we just got a 360. He's got it down to FIFA, Tiger Woods, and Top Spin 2. Which would anyone suggest out of those three?

[steelersfan43]

Had some crazy intense moments on the collage hoops 2k7 demo at my friends. Me and My friend are nc and my other friend is florida, 4 seconds left down by 2. Dribble up the court with ty lawson or whatever, jump to shoot the three from almost half court and sink it. It was crazy. Then the next game were tied with like 5 seconds left, I dribble up and shoot the three, lol, miss bounces way above the rim , its a race between the clock and the ball coming down. with .2 seconds left the ball comes down, and the center tips it in for the win. crazyness.

[Charm City Byrdgang]

Splinter Cell and NBA2k7 are the only games Ive played over the last two months. The Splinter Cell series may be my favorite non sports series out there.

[draftguru151]

I downloaded the nba street demo. Pretty good. I'm probably gonna pick it up.

[liquidswords]

2K is coming back for NFL this year on 360... that's gonna be awesome. The thing I hate about Madden was the omission of the fantasy draft. That was my favorite part of the game.

[draftguru151]

Isn't it going to be fake teams and such though?

[smittyjs]

One of my buddy is going to hook me up with:
Fear (very badass game)
Tiger woods golf 2006 (Old, but still fun)
and Over G fighter( heard it was decent, but thats it)
All for $25

I might trade in Over G fighter and Tiger woods golf and put that to a used copy of NBA 2k7.

[Scotty D]

How many of you guys play Worms?

[liquidswords]

Isn't it going to be fake teams and such though?
No, according to gamespot.com it's NFL licensed teams and players.

Guys don't ever buy the game Bullet Witch for 360, infact don't even rent it.

[frogstomp]

With all this splinter cell love, I'd just like to point out (again) that the next Splinter Cell is supposed to be a 360 exclusive.

(I have no self-confidence, and constantly need to make comments that make me feel justified in my purchase. deal with it, bitches.)

Assassins Creed Pushed Back
We have chosen to delay the releases of Brothers in Arms Hells Highway and Assassin’s Creed to fiscal year 2007/2008 in order to take additional development time to ensure that both of these extraordinary games take utmost advantage of the complex new technologies available to our development teams and that the quality of the games will live up to the high expectations of our fans. The extra time for fine tuning will ensure that both Brothers in Arms Hells Highway and Assassin’s Creed offer truly exceptional gaming experiences.Looks like we won't see Assassins Creed for a while.

I should get that it's from the makers of NBA2k7 right and not crappy EA Sports? Does it play like NBA 2K7? And how are the graphics compared?

[Charm City Byrdgang]

I should get that it's from the makers of NBA2k7 right and not crappy EA Sports? Does it play like NBA 2K7? And how are the graphics compared?

Yes its by 2K sports. Its alot like NBA2K7. The graphics are similar but not as polished as NBA2k7 IMO but its still good. The gameplay is the same as NBA2K7 The game plays alot like a true college game, there are alot of missed shots. Some of the player ratings need to be tweeked (Greivis Vasquez) but besides that its a solid game. Its real fun and the dynasty/franchise/whatever you want to call it mode is very deep. Alot of decisions to be made and alot of extras. I love the retro teams, I was playing with Michael Jordan earlier. Having to put the players names in was kind of a drag but it took me about 2 hours to put in all the people I thought ment anything. I cant wait to start exporting draft classes into NBA2k7.


Overall its not as good of a game as NBA2k7 is but thats my favorite game for 360 so it would be hard to compare to that. Its a great complimentary game to NBA2K7 and if your a basketball nut (which I know ghetto is) than it would probably be worth buying.

[SeanTaylorRIP]

Good, only thing I can't stand about college games like when I bought March Madness 05 on Xbox was that the players just looked nothing like themselves especially on lesser known names, I don't expect them to look much like them because of licensing but on George Mason Jai Lewis was a big white guy.

SPRING UPDATE!!!!!

Instant Messaging Comes to Xbox 360

Redmond , Washington —Your Xbox Live® friends list is about to get a whole lot bigger. Microsoft Corp. today announced the launch of Windows Live™ Messenger on Xbox 360™, connecting friends across Xbox 360 consoles, Microsoft® Windows®-based PCs and Windows Mobile®-powered devices.

Chat with your friends via Live Messenger.

With this update to Xbox 360, friends and families can easily connect and chat directly from their television using Windows Live Messenger, a network of more than 20 billion relationships and more than 260 million active accounts.
"Xbox Live has really become the
largest social network on television."
—Jerry Johnson, Microsoft

Beginning the week of May 7, 2007, the Xbox 360 Spring Update will provide Xbox 360 owners worldwide with access to Windows Live Messenger features, broadening the communication options on the Xbox Live social network.

Connected Experiences
Members of the six-million-strong Xbox Live community currently send more than two million text and voice messages a day and can now use Windows Live Messenger to text chat with up to six people on their contact list at one time, while playing games, listening to music, or watching movies. Text chat adds to the variety of options friends and families already have to communicate with on Xbox Live, including voice and video chat.

Look for this new accessory this summer.

Current relationships on Windows Live Messenger and Xbox Live will be unified on Xbox 360 and users will see at a glance if their existing friends on Windows Live Messenger have gamertags, instantly expanding the breadth of connected experiences they can share online.

"Bringing the largest IM community in the world, Windows Live Messenger, to Xbox 360 makes sense, as Xbox Live has really become the largest social network on television," said Jerry Johnson, product unit manager of Xbox Live at Microsoft. "For our growing community of six million on Xbox Live, using Xbox 360 is a very social, connected experience. They are using Xbox 360 to play games, music, and movies while simultaneously communicating with one another through video, voice, and text chat. With this announcement we are simultaneously expanding the access of Xbox Live users to existing friends and family while introducing Windows Live Messenger users to the benefits of Xbox 360."

Know instantly which achievement you accomplished.

Beginning the week of May 7, users of Windows Live Messenger on Xbox 360 can text chat using the virtual keyboard accessible on Xbox 360, or by connecting a USB keyboard to the console. This summer Microsoft will launch a QWERTY text-input device, a new accessory that will connect directly into the Xbox 360 controller to support text and instant messaging.

Other New Features
Beyond Windows Live Messenger, the Spring Update for Xbox 360 includes hundreds of new features and enhancements including:

* A richer Achievement notification pop-up will showcase the name of the unlocked Achievement and the gamerscore value without needing to leave the game to check the Achievements list.
* Enhanced family settings features for Xbox Live communications enable different defaults for video chat and voice chat.
* A new Xbox Live Marketplace blade lets Xbox Live members access the content they seek—whether it is game content or TV shows and movies (available in the United States)—from one place on Xbox Live.
* Updates to Xbox Live Arcade allow owners to quickly see which Xbox Live Arcade games their friends are playing and join in the fun. Xbox Live members can also compare progress of leaderboard scores and Achievements directly with all friends on their friends list. Expanded "Tell a Friend" capabilities make it easier than ever to boast about Achievements and high scores.
* Expanded "Tell a Friend" capabilities make it easier than ever to boast about Achievements and high scores.
* A new option in Auto Downloads provides faster access to the entire collection of free, trial-version Xbox Live Arcade games.
* New progressive download controls provide easy access to optimal viewing options by letting people fast-forward, rewind, pause and resume as their video is downloaded from Xbox Live Marketplace.
* Extension of the background download functionality will allow owners to set their Xbox 360 console to turn off automatically after downloads are complete.

The Spring Update is free beginning the week of May 7 and will be easily accessible to every Xbox 360 owner through Xbox Live or on Xbox.com.

You may not even notice all the new features, but they are all designed to enhance your Xbox Live experience. Some of the other features in this upgrade include:

* The name of game in tray is now displayed in the dashboard.
* When the tray icon is highlighted, a list of achievements, game icon and gamerscore for that game is displayed.
* Video trick modes are enabled for content that is being progressively downloaded from Video Marketplace.
* Playback progress bar indicates download completion.
* Improved skip forward, skip back functionality during video playback.
* Switchable aspect ratio now available during video playback (Auto to Letterbox, Zoom, Stretch, Native).
* Player and friends lists now quickly show session presence information for quick identification of users that are joinable.
* Support for streaming WM-DRM protected content from a PC
* Folder view for video content on connected devices
* H.264 video support: Up to 15 Mbps, Baseline, Main, and High (up to level 4.1) Profiles with 2 channel AAC LC and Main Profiles.
* Added MPEG-4 Part 2 video support: Up to 8 Mbps, Simple Profile with 2 channel AAC LC and Main Profiles.
* Show folder hierarchy for video content played from all devices.
* Bookmarks are stored for each video that the user plays remembering the users last location in the file as well as the aspect ratio that the user choose for that file.
* Video trick modes (fast forward, rewind, chapter skip) can now be used while downloading Video Marketplace content.
* Skip forward and backward functionality has been improved to skip to the next or previous chapter. Each video is divided into 10 “chapters” allowing you to quickly skip around video content.
* The information bar that is turned on via the On Screen Display (OSD) now shows you exactly where you are in the playback of the video file. In addition it will also show for Video Marketplace content how much of the file has been downloaded and where the “chapters” exist in the file.
* Windows Media protected content (WM-DRM) can now be streamed from the PC to the console. If the WM-DRM license is missing or corrupted then a specific error message is displayed to the user. Bookmarking is also stored for protected content.
* When the user is in the dashboard and an Xbox 360 game is in the console then the name of the game is displayed in the tray icon of the dashboard. If the user highlights the tray icon then achievements and gamer score are displayed for that game based on the signed in user. Xbox1 games show the name and image of the game.
* Bookmarks are stored for each video that the user plays. The user can delete all bookmarks but this will reset all bookmark information for every video that the user has played. The bookmark database is exposed in the system/memory/system items
* When a user selects an item for download from Marketplace then the system will determine if there is sufficient disk space for the item and, if not, will ask the user to delete content on the HDD. The system provides a sorted by size list of videos, game trailers, demos and arcade content to aid the user in the deletion process. The same list of items are also available from within memory so that users can quickly see which items are consuming the most disk space.
* The console will block the user who attempts to download content onto a storage device that will never have the capacity to store the item without deducting any points associated with the content item.
* The screensaver is disabled when playing photos from any source

I c ant wait for GTA 4 to come out on XBox 360. I heard it's going to have a multiplayer feature similar to the MMOs on PCs. That would be sweet

you aint' lying, playing until 7 in the morning must have meant you got to play what 3-4 matches?? haha thats the one thing that somewhat bothers me, you are in go mode for like 45-60 straight minutes. my eyes were dry as hell, i was so sick of host shotgun being able to take out everyone of the guys on my team. it is fun as hell, don't get me wrong, just really long. another good thing is it will be easy as hell to get the seriously achievment now. i played annex up to 180 would average like 50-60 kills a match. it is definetly a switch up to what you are used to in gears. fun stuff.

[rocco31fb]

I just got a replacement 360 after my original one had the dreaded "Ring of Death". I had luckily NOT registered it yet, so I told them I bought it 10 months ago so that it would be under warranty. So I sent it in to be replaced for free and got it back today....with a HARD DRIVE attached!! I now have two and am going to sell the one that came with it! Sweet!

[Vikes99ej]

Never played it on Xbox1 but it is probably one of the best visually stunning games on the system.

The graphics are great. It's pretty fun. I played the demo for a while at Target.

[terribletowel39]

haha i might be right there with ya.

[M.O.T.H.]

Do you guys know how much it is? It's probably $40 by now.

[Vikes99ej]

haha i might be right there with ya.

I've put it off for probably a good two weeks now... I'm lazy.

[terribletowel39]

How's fight night for the 360? Better than on the original XBOX? Is it any different other than graphically?

yea the graphics are amazing, bullet time punches are greatness. physics are awesome except sometimes when you or your opponent falls the ground. its a great game for a bunch of guy roomates to all go beat each others ass.

[terribletowel39]

Do you guys know how much it is? It's probably $40 by now.

let me let you in on something very simple. although i am not saying you should do this, but you could. hack your 360 and you get all the free games you want. it is simple, just takes some reading on google. and the game is free. you still get the online capabilities if you download the right one and accomplishments. all that.

[terribletowel39]

Sadly you can't get achievements in Annex. But yeah we actually played a 16 round Annex game, but each round was only to 180.

oh you can't get achievements?? thats pretty homoerotic. see 16 round games to 180, thats still like 4-5 480 matches. (don't feel like doing the math.) and the thing is, if you are playing with two good squads, then 180 even takes a while.

if yall won then yall must have been whooping ass. cuz we had a 3 round 180 one go on for 55 minutes. but the worst guy that i usually play with, i have still seen him take out 4 guys on his own. its definetly some fun though.

Guess you dont have the skills to pay the bills.

I'm pretty much the only person I know who isn't a guitar hero fan...

I've never played... i doubt i'd like it.

[frogstomp]

I've played it a few times, and just... don't really like it.

[Tubby]

I've never played guitar hero, but I play guitar so I'd imagine I'd be pretty good at guitar hero.

I just got a replacement 360 after my original one had the dreaded "Ring of Death". I had luckily NOT registered it yet, so I told them I bought it 10 months ago so that it would be under warranty. So I sent it in to be replaced for free and got it back today....with a HARD DRIVE attached!! I now have two and am going to sell the one that came with it! Sweet!
Dude, are you serious?!? My whole process of getting mine fixed took several months and after that my hard drive went kaput on me, so now I am left without any hd and waiting for the 120 GB version to come out. I kind of hate you.

[DHVF]

I'm pretty much the only person I know who isn't a guitar hero fan...I love guitar hero, it's so much fun that I don't see how you couldn't enjoy it.

[ElectricEye]

Eh, Guitar Hero was alright. I'm not a big fan of music games though.

Say my friend has crackdown, could he download the beta, and then let me borrow and download it? And after you download it, do you have to play it with crackdown in, or is it in the downloaded demos section on the dash?

One beta per disc.

No, I don't have the skills to use stupid-ass Star Power. I spend a whole minute moving my guitar around, trying to unleash it.

I have no idea what that means but, i'll take your word for it. haha.

All you have to do is tip it rightside up...(rolls eyes)

I just figured it out now... thanks to the tutorial. It would have been nice to know.

[steelersfan43]

Arrgh, I want to play the beta

Fuzion Frenzy 2 is like $25 now...not surprisingly... has anyone played it? I liked the first one... not that bad a party game to play with the boys. I might get it one of these days.

I'll pick it up eventually. FUZION FRENZYYYYYYY!

[M.O.T.H.]

Yeah dude, I knew the price would drop off eventually...$25 not that bad either.

[draftguru151]

Yea I loved the first one. I'll pick the 2nd one up soon now that it's cheap.

I dont know why but, i always loved twisted system... i think thats what is was called. good times.

Bioshock looks weird/complicated, not interested in it.

[M.O.T.H.]

ha... i didnt know who you were at first...new sig.

Anyway, I'm not overly excited to play it either but, I'll give a rent.

[frogstomp]

I'm more excited for Bioshock than any other game that will come out.

[themaninblack]

i just bought one the other night and i got it with 3 games for $520 and its new. I got madden 07, ncaa 07, and COD3. does NCAA 07 not have a heisman mode thing like it does on PS2? if so that really blows...

[M.O.T.H.]

Alan Wake for me... free-roaming, 3rd person, "pyschological thriller" tag... sounds like my kind of game.

Woot, 6000 posts.

In other news, Mass Effect may be delayed until september. I'm too lazy to post a link, but if you go to google and search "Mass Effect delayed until September," you'll find all the links you need.

ha, 6000 didnt even notice...haha.

That sucks about Mass Effect... I've become increasingly more interested in it. It's taking too long for new games to come out... i could have used these, to waste some time leading up to the draft.

[themaninblack]

bought gears of war and fight night 3(still love it) today. reserved GTAIV, HALO3, Madden 08, and NCAA 08 as well.

[M.O.T.H.]

Saints Row... I got this game a long time ago and never really got around to playing that often. Is it worth a play through...did you guys like it?

[DHVF]

Yeah, umm....anyone get the elite?

I LOVE THIS NEWS. GREAT NEWS FOR US. CANT WAIT FOR THE THINGS

Whodunit?

Anybody here know when the price drops?

[njx9]

when people are no longer willing to pay the current price.

Sounds about right.

I've been playing a lot of Ghost Recon 2 lately. Pretty addicting. I like the idea of the little red diamonds for the enemys.

I loved the normal game, couldn't get into online.

[Shiver]

Forza 2 comes out later this month. The king of racing simulations returns!

[draftguru151]

Yea I'm picking that up the first day. Haven't gotten a racing game on 360 yet, that should be sick.

[M.O.T.H.]

Fuzion Frenzy 2 is god awful.

[draftguru151]

That's disappointing.

[M.O.T.H.]

That's disappointing.

My friend and I were kind of pissed... They took away the Fuzion Frenzy part...stupid.

[Moses]

Why can't this game come out for PC? :(

I need some madden help, a bunch of my friends and I started a league, we keep records online, trade players, play tourneys for money ect...

I am top 2/3 in the league, I used to kill everyone but there getting better now.

How do I beat zone defenses? I cant find big enough holes to throw threw, and when there is an opening, if I throw it it closes fast.

How do I stop vince young from scrambling, without sacrificing coverage?

How do I stop the runningback from catching the ball down feild out of the backfield?
and any other tips would help alot. Ill think of more stuff.
