coz, while back you had a link for live codes at a good price, now i can't find it :( can you help?

you know, its pretty hard for a demo to be so bad that it destroys any hope that i had that a game would be good, but marvel ultimate alliance 2 is that demo

So, I started playing Brutal Legend. It's better than I thought it'd be.

I'd like to send a shoutout to the inbred-looking lady in the trailer park who helped me fix my 360 tonight. Mad props 2 u, girl.

[quote]At first I was in shock, I mean it's always at the back of your head using pirate games you know there's that possibility but you haven't heard about it, there's been no warnings and you haven't heard it happen to anyone in the last two years. [/quote]

[quote]I've probably saved about £600 and I've copied roughly 30 or 40 games. A lot of them I've downloaded or I've taken off friends that have downloaded themselves. [/quote]

what a total retard

i mean that guy doesn't even deserve electricity, let alone an xbox

This last.fm doodad is pretty neat. Would make a great screensaver for a party.

i am scared of the facebook one. is it going to show my friends that i stayed in to "study" i.e. play dragon age :/

last.fm is getting a lot of use in my house

haha wow never has a demo destroyed any hopes i might have for a game as quickly as "fairy tale fights". wtf were they thinking trotting out this piece of shit?

Haha, I was just "the one" on 1 vs 100. Lost everything :D.

congrats tho!

Thanks! Am being spammed with bad luck messages now though (I went for a help, ask the top 10, and they got it wrong).

What was the question about?

What anniversary did Gatwick celebrate a few years ago.

I am considering giving away my 360 to my cousins and sticking entirely to PS3. Is this a good idea y/n and why

y

WHY NOT

NOT WHY

The only real reason is if there were any really killer exclusives coming up... But I don't think there are, and I can always play it over there anyway. Czn I thought you were a xbox stan. how come you play your shooters on xbl

I'm definitely not ready to get rid of my 360. I like the ps3 but the 360 is more well-rounded as a games machine. The ps3 is my blu-ray / ps3 exclusive / media machine.

ok so dantes inferno demo is PRETTY FUCKING EXCITING

(yeah yeah i know its a god of war rip off, but whatever, i dont get to play your stupid god of war, so nyahhh)

I got 'Pure' for my kid as a wee £5 stocking filler and it's been on for two days solid - quick fix accessible fun with a pretty good learning curve (so far).

I also got 'Colin McCrae: Dirt 2' from my brother and so far (6 races in) I'm not v impressed - steering feels really light and slippy. Weird option to have a damage setting that makes the car look damaged but have nothing go wrong with it.

I just bought a big fuck off HD with part of my xmas bonus money. Wanted to get a smaller HD but no transfer utility comes with any of them except the 120 gb. Mission accomplished, Microsoft.

I've never played either but wd like one of the xbla board games: catan or carcassone. which wd people recommend? do we have any regular players of either here?

I love Catan on 360, on PC, as a board game, etc. The 360 version is a little slower than I'd like but a (related) plus is that the AI is pretty tough and consequently I lose a lot...enough to keep me pissed off enough to keep playing. If I had my 360 right now I'd love to play against you. Come August I will. My brother also loves Carcassonne (as a board game and on 360); one of these days I'll try it too.

also how's ticket to ride?

and why hasn't anyone brought any of the white dwarf board games to xbla? geek me wd love to play some warhammer 40k/necromunda/space hulk... hell I'd even take hero quest!

thanks, euler. I think maybe mordy plays some catan?

I expect the answer to my games workshop question is 'who wd bother to buy the miniatures then?'

I mean I don't even want fancy graphics - lots of the artwork by GW painters is great, digitised versions of their landscapes and models would be perfect

carcassonne on the 360 is excellent if you turn the music off and add your own.

I tried Ticket to Ride and the presentation was fine but the board game didn't really appeal to me. It was the first time I'd tried it though.

Yeah, I play a little Catan on the 360. Good stuff.

I tried the (very short) Death by Cube demo, and didn't like it at all. The most Robotron-like of the Robotron clones. I think the thing I liked least about it was how stiff the angles of your shot felt, compared to how fluid it feels in Geometry Wars.

ok so in the running "how did this even get to the stage where they try to sell it to you" game, i suggest that everyone go to games on demand and check out the screen shots for "Brave - A Warrior's Tale"

Darksiders is really good; it's basically Arkham Asylum if Ronnie James Dio had been in charge of the plot, but the dungeons are near Zelda quality

anyone played either of the viva pinatas?

I played the holy mamacitas out of the first one. Incredible game (if that's your thing)

seconded on all points (and where's your coint and plick coz?)

I'll give it to you:

1. MW2 --- 70 points
2. Some Soccer Game --- 20 points
3. Haggis Hunt part 3 --- 10 points

u forgot brave fencer musashi

and style savvy

Ok, I'm terrible at fighting games, but I want this now Hori pretty bad:

Maybe it'll improve my Street Fighter skills?

Guys I bought an Xbox360 last night! I know, cutting edge, but hey. My profile name (forget the proper term for this, "friendtag"? whatever) is Z2S5 if anyone wants to be my virtual friend.

All I have right now is Mass Effect II, so I am currently SQUINTING AT THE SCREEN. Goddammit, I wish one of the reviews I had read would have mentioned that all the font in the game is size 2 Arial Narrow, FUCK.
