nah i mean like i used to do with ps2s and switch the serial numbers, return and get my money back

5/22/2007 10:45:01 PM

do they check s/n? its wal-mart...do they even know what a s/n is?

5/22/2007 10:47:39 PM

i doubt it

in my head i played it out like "oops my bad bbl"

and go to another wal mart

5/22/2007 10:52:52 PM

I know I'm a little late to the party, but is Castlevania: SOTN worth the $10?

5/22/2007 11:00:26 PM

^Absolutely. It's like the best game on XBLA. Plus, before it came onto XBLA, the PSX version was like $30.

I'll have to play it first. I've been kinda high on Call of Juarez too. However, if I get an extra $60, I'm getting C&C3.

5/24/2007 2:57:34 PM

^i've got 4 games up for sale in Classifieds so I can either pick up C&C3 or Crackdown

5/24/2007 3:02:27 PM

^Too bad I don't really have games with absolute trade leverage. I'm attached to most or all my games as well, so I find myself hard pressed to part away with them.

5/24/2007 3:14:15 PM

yeah, i can't get myself to part with Rainbow Six, Splinter Cell, Gears of War, FIFA07, or Test Drive Unlimited. Even though the only two i play is Rainbow Six and FIFA...but i just might want to play the others some day lol. and i haven't beat Splinter Cell yet.

5/24/2007 3:19:14 PM

How's FIFA07 on the 360? I have the game for PS2 when they had the buy two, get one free deal.

5/24/2007 3:34:06 PM

its awesome! I really love the controls and the graphics are great. Best 'football' game i've played to date. I played the UEFA demo too which i also really good but it just has a different graphical look to it then fifa. not sure what it is about it but it just doesn't seem as realistic to me.

5/24/2007 3:39:04 PM

beat COD3 on Veteran...some tough boards but it only took me a few days of a couple hours each

COD2 seemed much harder on Veteran but i dunno

5/24/2007 3:48:22 PM

The demo for Hour of Victory comes out on Wednesday if anyone is interested in another WWII like FPS.

5/24/2007 4:07:28 PM

i heard theres gonna be a new Call of Duty thats like a modern era counter terrorism game...lot of things would be good on that game engine

5/24/2007 4:08:31 PM

Yeah, the commercial was great. Oh yeah, FIFA 08 is coming out in the fall.

Quote :

"EA Kicks off FIFA 08 It's coming this Autumn on every format possible, including debuts on Wii and PS3. by Rob Burman, IGN UK UK, May 24, 2007 - EA has announced - rather predictably some might say - that FIFA is returning to consoles this Autumn, with footballing superstar Ronaldinho gracing the cover FIFA 08. Joining Ronaldinho on the cover are stars from individual territories too, with Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos adorning the Spanish box art and Germany getting Miroslav Klose of Werder Bremen. UK and US cover stars have yet to be announced. In addition, Ronaldinho and his fellow faces of FIFA will be providing motion capture for the game, to ensure "body movements, individual moves and the playing style of each athlete is captured and digitised to become the life-like movement of the virtual players in future versions of EA's FIFA games". Joe Booth, senior producer for FIFA 08, said: "We are proud to call some of the world's best football athletes our partners. The access, guidance and insight they give us means that FIFA 08 will create a next-gen experience that not only looks authentic, but that captures the emotion, finesse and beauty of the game." As for the formats FIFA 08 is coming to, the full list is [take a deep breath] Xbox 360, PlayStation 2, PSP, Nintendo DS, PC, mobile phones and it's appearing on Wii and PlayStation 3 for the first time ever. We'll have plenty more information on FIFA 08 next week, so make sure you stay tuned to IGN."

6 days till forza 2

5/24/2007 4:18:51 PM

^Do you use the driving wheel or the controller when you play racing games?

yup, video is out online. It looks pretty bad ass. Call of Duty 4: Modern Combat.

5/24/2007 5:10:14 PM

^cool

uh oh..."E 74" error...not good!

M$ says $140 to repair it this time...looks like I'll be headed back to a different Walmart this time for the shorter duration Hova style swap

5/24/2007 7:37:47 PM

Just downloaded DiRT demo, its awesome! especially since I can drive my car on the demo (disappointed i couldn't do the same with the forza 2 demo)

Also downloaded and watched the Tom Clancy End War video announcement which got me excited, although i'm confused on how this game will be played. C&C3 style or FPS?

5/24/2007 11:30:03 PM

Rush N' Attack out for XBLA... looks fun, probably something before my time though.

5/25/2007 9:20:27 AM

back in full effect son

wonder if its smart to put a warranty on this machine, hehe

5/25/2007 1:44:49 PM

^^ If that is the same as the NES game, I have it. It isnt' that great.

5/25/2007 3:11:52 PM

i like the new spring layout of the marketplace. i just now upgraded and it is fun. i like catan too, though i dont forsee buying it.

5/26/2007 2:52:28 PM

my third one just died, waiting on the box to send it back

5/26/2007 5:41:00 PM

i find it amazing these are all done with just in-game decals/shapes and layers, and the game has only been out in japan for a few days

http://hp.jpdo.com/dd004/43/joyful.cgi <-- 80+ pages of em

5/27/2007 9:58:34 PM

^That Bewitched car is cool.

I finally played Gears of War today. I thought it was pretty good. I died a good amount, but I guess that's what practice is for.

5/28/2007 12:09:01 AM

it isnt a super easy game until you get the hang of it. not having the appropriate cover during an ambush can mean certain death.

5/28/2007 9:22:40 AM

Forza 2, Monster Madness, and Shadowrun all come out for 360 this week.

5/29/2007 3:13:47 PM

call of jaurez is the next game coming out for the 360 that is worth mentioning.

5/29/2007 3:15:01 PM

^That my friend is the only 360 game coming out next week.

5/29/2007 3:16:46 PM

and i am getting a copy as i have already stated

5/29/2007 3:24:48 PM

Is Medal of Honor: Airborne gonna be any good? It sounds pretty cool the way it isn't a progressive type map game like the CODs. I like being able to control where you start on a level and go from there...

5/29/2007 4:33:19 PM

getting that too

pretty much every fps i am getting

5/29/2007 6:03:45 PM

pirates demo is out

hour of victory demo coming out today as well

5/30/2007 10:20:51 AM

ShadowRun has caught my eye, but I am not 100% sold on it. Also interesting in pitting PC (Vista only) and console gamers against each other for the first time.

Demo comes out after the H3 beta finishes.

5/30/2007 11:10:45 AM

what are the top multiplayer games out there now

I'm looking to have some buddies over this weekend, and thinking about renting a few games...getting a little burned out on halo halo halo

we could possibly have a second xbox for a system link if that's needed for a multiplayer experience...but probably not more than 4 people total

5/30/2007 11:40:20 AM

gow, cod3, rainbow 6 vegas

just depends on what type of game you want to play but id say those are probably your best 3

5/30/2007 11:43:39 AM

it sucks you cant play 2 player co-op on COD3

5/30/2007 11:46:47 AM

I guess I'm also looking for an action RPG, sports, etc...not just FPS the whole time

5/30/2007 11:47:39 AM

all the 2K7 sports games are good

5/30/2007 11:54:21 AM

^True. They do need to fix some things on MLB 2K7, but it's a good game nonetheless. NBA 2K7 is on point. I haven't played NHL 2K7, so I don't know how to answer that.

Oh yeah, Monster Madness comes out on the 12th of June, not this week like I previously said. My bad.

If anyone got Shadowrun today, let everyone know how it is. I usually don't play FPS, but if it's good, then I might give it a shot.

5/30/2007 4:42:01 PM

Sorry...got that internal error thing, and I didn't know if it would post or not. My bad.

5/30/2007 5:38:53 PM

I just got Forza this afternoon on the way home and its fun so far

I started with a Talon and probably played about 4 races thus far

I'm anxious to get online and buy some of the crazy artwork cars people have done

I was going to make an ode to Peter North Cumshot Corvette but apparently they're banning people for obscene designs

5/30/2007 7:14:07 PM

5/31/2007 4:50:02 PM
