Man for the life of me I can not get a wifi adpater on ebay for under 40 $ every dam buyer out bids / rises the price every dollar until no one buys it at ending price. Dam you ebay sellers!!

[Jvig43]

I'm going to say that Halo 4 is really starting to piss me off. Its become whoever uses the gayest tactics wins. Plasma grenades and bolt shots ftw.

blot shots are ***....plasma takes skill to stick a person...also getting to use 3 plasma grenades is awesome.

[Jvig43]

Oh I disagree, running up and sticking someone takes no skill at all. And in the time doing so I usually kill the person who stuck me anyway, its just obnoxious that I die after.

[Bulldogs]

Yep, you pretty much nailed some of the larger issues in the game. The most complains I've heard or made myself are about the magnetism of plasma grenades and the power of the boltshot. Here's hoping they both get nerfed in the upcoming Title Update. Fix those things, as well as adding quality small maps and more custom features and we have ourselves a good game.

[brat316]

there are no small maps, its either large or huge. and the medium maps usually have so much **** in the middle it a maze.

I just want battle creek or beaver creek brought back.

[Jvig43]

Yeah remakes would be fantastic. Give me Zanzibar, blood gulch, lock out etc... They released far too few maps on release anyway.

So I finally got me one of them Data max wifi adapters for the xbox 360. I have old elite with no built in wifi. It got it for 25$ at a GB games store! Was a steal that was.I have been looking for a while and got one. So much better now. Great connection it is along with cheaper price then 60$ one or else where.

Anyone else playing Farcry 3? I am and enjoying it very much.

[MetSox17]

I've had my phone for about a month now but i was just bored enough to finally install Xbox Smartglass in it (I have a Nokia Lumia). It's pretty freakin neat to be able to control all the functions on my Xbox through my phone without any lag or delay.

I just finished the story mode of Far Cry 3 it was awesome! Many liken it to Skyrim but with guns and sharks. I'll say that is a little bit of an overstatement but in many ways it is similar. A good story line with side quests that I've not seen in many FPSers. It was very good graphically too.

I liked it but I thought it took awhile to get going though. I wasn't a fan of how spread out the maps were, it seemed like to took forever to get anywhere because you were always having to travel from one end of the map to the next. What did you think of the story?
