3/12/2007 11:09:57 AM

i hate my xbox live being fucked

it just randomly stopped working even tho my cable and internet still do

its like being back in the N64 days when I need 3 other people in the room with me to get a decent game going

sucks

3/12/2007 11:43:26 AM

i beat cod2 on hardened ... i just could not waste that much time trying the veteran setting on that game or in cod3.

3/12/2007 11:44:43 AM

^^My Internet has been screwy over the last week or so...although it seems to be equally effecting cable modem, cable TV, etc

^I went through on the easiest mode and it was cool but didnt take TOO long...then i just skipped hardened and went right to veteran...some of those boards were hard as fuck but i got all 1000 achievement points on that b-i

3/12/2007 11:46:53 AM

hardened is good enough for me. besides i am not that crazy about achievement points.

3/12/2007 1:01:46 PM

YEEEESSSSSS, I mean the xbox live arcade is ok...

but TMNT will make it AWESOME

[Edited on March 12, 2007 at 1:47 PM. Reason : and I'm not playing in any 4 player coop if I can't be Don!!! ]

3/12/2007 1:46:57 PM

Freakin' awesome

They could easily sell this for $10, glad to see it at $5

3/12/2007 2:10:10 PM

fine ill take leo, but i wont be happy about it

is it humanly possible to have a gamerscore of 126k without any cheating whatsoever?

3/12/2007 2:41:01 PM

Man, I suck. My score isn't even 2k. I guess I need to hit the sticks more. (non-homo)

[Edited on March 12, 2007 at 2:45 PM. Reason : galaga]

3/12/2007 2:42:59 PM

i only have 3125, and only because i only play one game at the time so i can get really good at it.

3/12/2007 2:46:26 PM

no it isnt hard. i have 6k and i would say i dont play that much. when i do get a game i like, i'll churn through it, but i can imagine having a ton more if thats what i did with most of my free time.

im like seedless in that i prefer to find one game and at least be decent at it. i dont like playing to the point where id be insane, but whatever. ps i either get raped, or tear it up in cod3, there is no in between.

3/12/2007 3:03:22 PM

i average about 30 points per game, and on a bad day i probably will average 20.

^i know it probably not in possible to have a gamerscore that high, but come on man what kind of life would it take to to have a score that high? you have to eat, sleep, masturbate, rest after masturbating, work, school, hang out ...

3/12/2007 3:05:22 PM

yeah i'm a big enough loser and my score is "only" ~29,000...but I also think some of the cats who make my score look tiny are in Japan, or at least have Japanese 360's...because there are dozens of games over there that we don't have over here

3/12/2007 3:36:12 PM

the top guy on that list is in italy. you get assigned a country flag according to your ip address

a snippet from his 360 blog :

Quote :

"Go ahead... call me a wussy... but I almost started crying when Rance6 turned me on yesterday. 126356 points of raw gamer score are making you jealous! That is a gain of 120 points over last time! He made some progress on Need for Speed™ Carbon picking up 1 achievement, A?????? HX finishing 2 achievements, Senko no Ronde Rev.X, Football Manager 2007 acquiring 4 achievements, GRAW 2 picking up 1 achievement, ??????????XO, and did it while drooling over my awesome graphics and sound."

he plays that many games in one day, which kind of makes me feel pathetic to be a gamer. btw, who is funding his gameage? in order to have a score that high you have to have played 99% of ALL 360 games, with arcade games being included.

^ that is a reasonable score to have since nov 2005. 126k is not even realistic, but oh well.

[Edited on March 12, 2007 at 4:29 PM. Reason : zxf]

3/12/2007 4:11:20 PM

^^^ this is why i like war, it makes me feel good cuz you always end up with 30pts or so. i usually get between 15-20 normally with good games in the mid 20's, bad ones potentially less (though i just swtich to medic if im really doing that bad so i can still be helpful to the team).

i stopped ctf for a while cuz i kept having dumbassed run in my line of fire and then punishing me. such a huge hole to get out of if it happens more than once too.

[Edited on March 12, 2007 at 4:16 PM. Reason : .]

3/12/2007 4:15:30 PM

all i play is ctf, and i play rifleman and heavy assualt the most. o only use medic on a few maps, just because those maps are so small that a medic is unstoppable from getting 40-50 easily. and yeah, people who punish are idiots, unless someone kills you on purpose. they fail to realize that when you punish, that person is knocked back further from ranking up and this makes the whole team weaker.

[Edited on March 12, 2007 at 4:19 PM. Reason : sdf]

3/12/2007 4:17:30 PM

tis why i dont play support gunner anymore. i never really figured out the trick for it really and dumbasses were way too easy to kill. ill stick to light assualt/medic with a smattering of rifleman/heavy assault

3/12/2007 5:37:45 PM

I know someone has got TMNT: The Arcade Game today.

3/14/2007 10:34:42 AM

if i left my xbox on i'm sure its autodownloaded

3/14/2007 10:41:22 AM

ill get it when iget home

3/14/2007 10:51:55 AM

is is the one where you can throw the Foot soldiers at the screen?

I always thought that was cool as fuck

3/14/2007 11:13:48 AM

^Nope, that was "Turtles in Time." This is TMNT2: The Arcade Game. This game came out for the NES back in the day.

3/14/2007 11:16:15 AM

i thought it was the arcade port which should be better than the NES version. turtles in time was the lewtz though.

3/14/2007 1:38:42 PM

when is Double Dragon coming out? or Wing Commander? yall have any good websites for dates of things like that?

3/14/2007 1:39:18 PM

scroll down to "upcomming games"

3/14/2007 1:40:58 PM

cool thanks

3/14/2007 1:45:01 PM

When somebody get's a leaked date for Halo 3 Beta they better post here!!!

3/14/2007 5:18:52 PM

u got a beta key too? crackdown or rule of 3?

all i've heard so far is spring, and probably late spring (i'm gonna guess the end of april)

well when it does come out, my GT is
xx DD xx

3/14/2007 5:30:35 PM

<-mildew23

And yeah, I have Crackdown.. which by the way, has anyone played that on CoOp??? How is it with 2 peeps? Can you fight each other?

3/14/2007 5:36:46 PM

rocked me out some turtles. would obviously be much better coop (plus some of the achievements seem good but not impossible)

3/14/2007 6:29:53 PM

i know yall are tired of me talking about cod3, but i finally beat the campaign last night on hardened, and i may start the campaign on veteran if i can't find any other game that interests me right now. there is a gun in this is game that gets more ammo as you kill (supposedly, according to the internet but it did not happen to me). it is the FG42 Scoped. i got it in the 12th or 13th mission, but after reading about it on the internet you can find it in the second mission and as long as you save your missions with it in your possession it supposedly will be in your arsenal in the next mission(s), and so on. basically it is a very stable and accurate fully-automatic sniper rifle. it has the recoil that you would expect, something like the heavy assault gun, but when you first ready it, like all other most accurate weapons in the game, the reticule targets an enemy immediately - to ready my weapon in between each shot is my technique in general. also it works very well with any rifle, especially the axis rifle in the mp. the FG42 Scoped is surprisingly accurate like this, and very satisfying. i recommend playing the campaign just to see this gun. while

3/15/2007 7:42:06 AM

^You're cool. If you like COD3, then by all means talk about it. I finally played TMNT: the Arcade Game last night. They hit the nail on that one.

3/15/2007 7:45:54 AM

i played the demo last night, and and i almost bought, but i beat the first stage so fast that i thought it might be a waste of money for me.

3/15/2007 7:53:12 AM

I also pre-ordered TMNT (not the arcade game), which comes out next Tuesday.

3/15/2007 7:57:15 AM

^^ shrug, for 5 bucks ill take a classic that i liked. it is pretty tough to get through without dying a lot (like any coin op) so it gives you something to work towards. with 4 player MP it has a good replayability factor. that said, no, it doesnt take long to finish.

3/15/2007 8:10:07 AM

no doubt it is a classic, and it is worth 5 bucks i would say. i even had fun with the demo, but i just like game that last for a while.

3/15/2007 8:16:45 AM

One more time: Crackdwon CoOp... How does it play? I need to renew my gold subscription but in the meantime I want some insight

3/15/2007 9:33:10 AM

Quote :

"Crackdown features a two-player cooperative play mode that, to some extent, allows drop-in play. Both players may explore the city freely, with the other player's position noted in the HUD map. Players can fight along side each other, and also inflict friendly-fire damage. The state of the city is determined by the host player's progress (including which bosses and kingpins remain). Both players are credited with the defeat of a boss or kingpin in the game (which will affect the state of the guest's progress), but are required to obtain supply points and gain experience of their own accord. Co-op players can race against each other in both rooftop and road races, if both should choose to participate"

I wonder how the orb collection works out in CoOp...

I have like 20-30 more agility ones to find and I am a little over halfway through finding the secret ones.

3/15/2007 10:03:42 AM

i've got 165 secret and i have no desire to seek out any more

i have 498 agility and i'm pulling my damn hair out trying to find those last 2 bastards.

3/15/2007 10:06:47 AM

no doubt seedless. ive not gotten a lot of xbla games for that reason. i think i bought it cuz i owned the NES version, but someone borrowed it and never returned that bastard. as a result i never got to play it as much as id probably have liked. plus it is always nice to have 4-5 little fun games in case ppl come over (ive got small arms, tmnt, and kaloki/geo wars even though they arent multiplayer).

3/15/2007 10:40:32 AM

^^ If you could keep leveling up your stats, I'd go after all the orbs...but what's the point? I'm all maxed out.

3/15/2007 10:56:39 AM

i want the achievement. after that i probably won't play the game anymore.

from what i've read, there is only around 800-900 achievement pts available in the game. so the rest will have to come in the form of downloadable content. i'm hoping they'll add a new gang/map and let you level up some more.

3/15/2007 11:43:49 AM

^The Godfather is kinda like that as far as achievement points

3/15/2007 11:45:20 AM

If they add a new gang or map I'll cream myself.
