been noticing the Pancake of Uberness has been playing quite a lot of that lately. Everytime I've been on (watching netflix mostly), it keeps saying UberPancake is playing Battlefield 1943. Not sure if I need a game quite that addicting... but it's tempting.

Finally decided. Can't download too many games right now, but I got Sam N Max. Now I'm debating between getting Ultimate MK3 or TMNT the Arcade Game with my remaining M$Points. Probably go with TMNT. Next week will be Monkey Island Special Edition and probably Powerup Forever.

Anyone else know of any good top-down airplane shooters (Raiden, Gaiden, Aerofighters, etc?)

I downloaded the free version of Anarchy Online last night...haven't played in like 7 years or something. It's pretty bare bones compared to all the new MMOs but I'm such a sucker for cyberpunk and customization.

 

[Liverslapper]

Contemplating downloading a few games on XboxLive. Can anyone vouch for the good/shitty factor of any of these?

Monkey Island SE (Pretty sure it's worth twice what they're charging)
MK3 Ultimate
Wallace and Gromit
Sam and Max Save the World (already know it'll whomp ass)
Cyberball
Catan
Powerup Forever
Feeding Frenzy 2

CASTLE CRASHERSSSSS!!

Has anyone here played Red Faction 3 on the 360? I'm considering getting it if I can get some money since I'm almost done replaying the original Red Faction, I hadn't played it since like 2000 but Red Faction 3 sounds awesome. Kinda like Crackdown on Mars with more explosions?

 

[Swabs]

Red Faction Guerrilla is fucking awesome, it's well worth the money.

 

[Enemy242]

alright legit, i'll definitely have to pick that up when I trade in some games then.

 

[Dead Winter]

FUCKING RUSE. HOLY SHIT.

The interface you see here is 100% real...this is not CGI. WOW.

GTA can suck on it.

LMFAO @ using a wolverine as a weapon to claw your opponent's face off.

Also doing drive-bys on a segueway brought some serious lawls.

Postal III? The second bored me very quickly.

 

[Dead Winter]

Well, honestly, the second one was really only good for destroying everything you see in the most disgusting way possible when you've had a bad day. Horrible graphics, horrible mechanics, but fun as hell.

It's like an anti-stress rubber squeeze ball.

But admit it, Stormo...pissing in people's faces until they vomit never gets old.

 

[Enemy242]

Yeah I dunno about postal 3, postal 2 literally bored me in less than a day, thats about as much random carnage as I can take. I can't even remember if there was a story or goals or anything, I just remember shooting shit.

 

[ShadowsWithin]

Mount and Blade expansion is coming out the week after next, pretty excited for the multiplayer.

 

[Lord Foul]

My dislike of Jack Black is completely overcome by my total worship of Double Fine's previous game Psychonauts. I eagerly anticipate this.

 

[El Stormo]

Fuck yeah!

 

[Burti]

That's about $1350 in parts online. You're paying an extra $250 to have someone build it.

Tried making it, even throwing in a 500 gig HD instead.

Came out to 1811.50.

 

[DarkNoise]

[DarkNoise]

I remember seeing Pentium 133 PCs for that.
