I play once or twice a week. About 84 hours at a time. Wink

If they made Unreal Championship backward compatible, I might play a little more.

It's less than $1 a week so even if you only play once or twice a week it's worth it.

Finally beat F.E.A.R.


The game is aptly named. Really cool, freaky game. I'm looking forward to the sequal.



FRZ hasn't chimed in lately. Still in the market, or are you still trying to decide between the PS3 and 360?

I think he's deciding Car loan, House payment, 360 or PS3.

They have a good selection of movies to download. TV shows too. The TV shows are yours to keep, movies have a 24 hour viewing window. Takes a long time to download though, especially the HD movies and of course they take up a lot of space.

I just ordered an XBox Live Gold Subscription, 1600 XBox Points, and the wireless adapter.


I think I'm more looking forward to the arcade games than anything else.


How many points do the arcade games cost? I'm assuming it will vary.

Most of the good ones are 800 points. Some of them are a little less.

The arcade games are hit and miss. A lot depends on what you enjoyed when the games were out originally. I personally love Galaga and Frogger.

resistance: Fall of Man for the PS3 is awesome. Must play it on Co-op though. I dont think that you could beat it alone. Very hard.

I've never played either, but it did get a decent rating from GameSpot.

Another Christmas bump.


Guitar Hero III: I get so excited about this game I almost crapped my pants. I was a GH virgin until a couple of days ago, and I am now hooked. It is a blast to play. I am a rock star.


Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare: I'm a big fan of COD, and I really think this is the best version ever. Unreal graphics and sound. Gameplay very similar to earlier versions. Great weapons. Lots of fun.


FEAR Files and Perseus Mandate: I was a big fan of the first FEAR game. This next game was fun, but it was pretty much a carbon copy of the original. I was getting a little sick of always running through empty offices, empty warehouses, empty etc. Still was creepy and had some 'make you jump' moments. Had fun, but I expected more.


Halo 3: One word. AWESOME.


Big Game Hunter: One word. SUCKS.


Lego Star Wars: Complete Saga: I really went back and forth about buying this game because we already have the first two issues. A lot of the content is a carbon copy and I wasn't sure if it would be worth it. It was. The graphics and sound are awesome. They put just enough new content, characters and extras in to make it worthwhile. My 4 year old loves it. We play together all the time. Highly recommended.

Good to hear. I bought this for my great nephew for Christmas. He's 9 years old. About a week before Christmas, their XBOX took a dump. The 3 rings of death or something like that. They have to send it in for repair which takes like 4 weeks. My niece said he practically pissed his pants when he opened it on Christmas Eve. He was so happy. Then he realized he couldn't play it and started crying. Great, I made my great nephew cry on Christmas Eve.

My borhter just got an XBOX 360...one game that he's really liked has been CONAN...awesome graphics, naked chicks, blood, drinking ale...all the makings of a classic.

BEOWULF was pretty good, bu he's stuck right now.

I'd really suggest trying out the ROCKBAND game with all of the instruments. I've heard good things about that too.

If you are a pacman fan download the Pacman Champ Edition from Xbox live. It is seriously fun. It cost 800 M$ points.

I also just got Assasin's Creed. Seems pretty cool. I have COD 4 I haven't played that much. GH3 is pretty fun, I need to get GH2 though because I heard that one is actually a better game.

All-Pro Football 2k8 is pretty fun. You can find it for 10 bucks now. I actually like the game play better than Madden.

How does everyone like GTA4? I have it but haven't played it too much. I have way too many games now that I don't have time to play.

I've been having a lot of fun with it.

The only time I play is on the weekends when everyone is sleeping. That way my 4 year old doesn't see his dad get services from a hooker and then shoot her in the face to get his money back.


I've been taking my time doing a lot of the side missions, dating, exploring, etc. I love the details of the city. I'm not in any hurry and would like to make the single player mission last the entire summer. Just a lot of FUN.

Isn't the Metal Gear pack the one that's backward compatible to PS2? Where did you get it and for how much, if you don't mind me asking? Where I've looked, they seem to be going for some serious coinage. Thanks.

Rock Band 2 is pretty good and has a ton of DLC coming out on a weekly basis. The DLC and some bad reviews of GHWT was what prompted me to get Rock Band 2 instead of GHWT. I may just buy the game for GHWT since I have seen more than a few people say the drums suck.

Really cool feature is for 5 bucks you can import all but 3 of the RB1 songs into RB2. So, if you have a buddy who has the original Rock Band you can borrow it for a night and add a whole bunch of songs to your play list.

Anyone played GOW2 yet, Fable 2 or Fallout 3? SO many games, so little time. Heck, I still have Metal Gear for PS3 that I haven't even cracked open yet.
