I have an xbox now

[kikitwitme]

If you have xbox live and you're into old school shooters (i.e. Asteroids), try Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2. I know you mentioned you're not into Guitar Hero; however, playing Rock Band w/ 4 people is pretty fun.

But folks, lets NOT forget that having a HDTV is a MUST to really, REALLY enjoy the graphics capabilities of these systems like 360 and PS3.

When I finally plugged in my HDMI cables... well, I STILL have not gotten over how much better it looks with the HDMI cables.

Yes sir, I don't have it, but I've seen it on HDTV, it's a big diffrence,

BTW I FORGOT ONE OTHER GAME RECOMENDATION

DEAD RISING!!!! great game, HDTV is important for this game!!!!

I will have to relook that one tomorrow. BAH, Bioshock got bumped by Bad Company AGAIN !!!! Whew, BC is such a blast... it is the supporting cast. The guy from Texas, he was quoting '300' during this huge battle... I nearly got whacked due to laughing so hard.

[dbostejano]

HD is important for Dead Rising? Only if you want to read anything that the characters are saying. I hate that about having an SDTV right now. When I play Forza 2 I can't even see how much I will get if I sell my car, the text is all fuzzy.

That's why! In dead rising you didn't even know what the hell their saying!

Yeah, I was being a smart-*SQUEE*. Like I said, I hate having a SDTV.

I went out and got Mass Effect, and I am loving that game. Played it nearly all weekend.

Ninja Gaiden II, not so much. It looks pretty neat, but I hate the controls, and I couldn't pass one of the bosses easily (some ninja in the top of a building on fire), so I gave up. That one is going back to the store. Not sure what to trade it for, probably either Halo 3 or Gears of War.

Conan is much more to my liking, and it is pretty much the same game, only simpler. Not a great game, but nice when I feel like walking around as a barbarian and cutting people to pieces.

I haven't started Bioshock yet, but I am looking forward to it.

I have a 1-month free trial of the gold membership. My id is BadDeacon if anyone wants to look me up.

You may be able to swing both H3 and GoW for just a couple of bucks more. NG2 is a pretty new game and both of those are pretty old but are both great onlind games. If you get H3 I will definitely have to hook up with you. Let me know either way, I have a large group of friends (not kids, 30 somethings with jobs and kids) that play both of these on a regular basis. By regular basis I mean Friday nights and Sunday nights.


Heck I might even go and get GoW again if you get that and drag you along to play with my friends, we will both get destroyed by them but that's part of the fun.

From what I recall, GoW and H3 were both being sold used for the same price as Ninja Gaiden II was (I bought NGII used also).

Is Gears of War just a first person shooter? I thought it was a tactical squad game, kinda like Republic Commando.

Either way, I'll get one of those two games by the end of the week.

Gow is not tactical at all, it's a run and gun, and it's not FPS.

Halo 3 is a good game.

Ninja 2, can be hard but it's a very fun game once you get the hang of it.

My bad.

GoW is a third-person shooter (as Dbos stated), but when you "scope" in you will go to a slow walk first person. GoW plays much like a FPS and you really won't notice the difference. The huge gameplay difference that you will notice is that the third-person is needed for the cover dynamic which is really cool. Rainbow Six: Vegas plays much the same. H3 gives you a true FPS.

One more thing, the gamevee.com beta is done and you can now upload your fileshare gameplay movies and clips from bungie.net (Halo 3) onto gamevee.com. This means you can post videos on the internet without a capture card.

I picked up Rainbow 6: Vegas, Burnout Revenge, and Viva Pinata last night.

Burnout is fun because, while I don't like racing games, I do like crashing games.

Rainbow 6 Vegas is pretty sweet. Seems like the kind of game I like. I'm looking forward to playing that one online.

I only got Viva Pinata because everyone here said it was good. Plus, I think I need a game where I don't just run around and shoot stuff.

[superman-prime]

I for got but what is that racing game that is kind a liek twisted metal for x 360?>?

[dbostejano]

This game requires patience... but it is fun.

I told the wife I wanted an X-Box but she'll only shave a line.

Stay Away from this one. It is a black hole of time.

This is one of those great games that is impossible to explain to someone that has no interest in games. A game where you are a pinata rancher.

I may just send you some animals from my ranch.

[dbostejano]

Ok I got the 411 on Mario Kart. apparently Nintendo goofed and pulled about 500,000 units, they should be coming out in mass soon. So if you have one sell it make your profit and get again when they hit the stores, which is like now. I just picked mine up last night and the store had a few more.

Thanks for the info. If you hear more about it, let us know.

I played this morning for about half an hour, and I was almost late to work because of it!

I built a house for 2 worm pinatas, and they did a "romance dance" and had a little baby pinata.

This game fits in nicely with my overall lifestyle change I am making to put more positive, happy things in my life. Even if it is kind of goofy.

I loved it and I was hooked from the very start.

There are a lot of games that are similar to this. Try the Legos movie trilogy games. Lots of humor and slapstick. These are great games and are infinitely replayable.
