The Game Thread

Halo Reach is gonna be SICK!!!! The campaign mode is supposed to be a lot longer than ODST so that makes me really happy. No being Arbitor(spelling?) on the new one though...at least in campaign mode.

Also, am I the only one excited for Bulletstorm? It looks pretty fucking fun.
 
I know half of you hate console gaming, but I can't wait on Sims 3 to come to 360 :)

I don't hate consoles, I hate when people think they are better, or just as easy to control a shooter or a point and click game on one. Just because you are used to a thumb-pad doesn't mean you wouldn't be better once getting used to a mouse and keyboard. I strongly prefer a console for a fighting game, and racing games can be nearly unplayable on a PC without a wheel. GTA4 was rough to control on PC when you were in car.

Also its not gay to play the sims, its gay to pay for it.

I agree. Alot of stuff about that game still has me very curious. I don't think you can dual wield weapons in it, I haven't seen it in any of the gameplay of it yet. I really like that you now pretty much make the main character of the campaign look like whatever you want. The main thing that I think the Halo series always needed was a better ranking system, and more unlockable shit to tie in with that and now that they finally have that I'm like :OOOOOO

The Elites even look cool enough to want to play as them now :) I never liked them before all that much, but now they look pretty freakin' cool

I think it's pretty ignorant for people to be so biased to just say that one thing is better than the other. I think each are better for certain things, like you said.

And unfortunately, being a console gamer, it's a little harder for me to pirate games without having my LIVE banned, or just use of my console online in general blocked :l





All that aside, I recently went on an Ebay binge and bought a few games, including Command and Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars, Halo Wars, Gears of War: Refresh, and The Force Unleashed :]
 
So who else besides me is excited to pay 49.99 a year to play xbox live now.

Fucking bullshit.

Seriously considering trading it for a PS3.
 
It's less than we pay.

How much do you have to pay for a year?

I was only paying 39.99 now 49.99..wtf...why? What is so improved now that I have to pay more.

I don't mind paying more for things if they can explain why there is a price increase.
 
They're adding ESPN and like webcam shit to it now, but I agree. The 1 year cards are now going to be 60 dollars starting in november.
 
So they add a bunch of shit I never even use and I still have to pay more. Then who knows if they are gonna start charging extra just to play the CoD games online.

I think I see myself with a PS3 in the near future. Good bye microsoft, you money grubbing whores.
 
I like how the solution to not pay $50 a month is to go pay $200 on a new console that will be obsolete in 2-3 years.
consolefags.

Microsoft have always been moneygrabbers, just deal with it.

Pay for new console? Who said anything about that?

I know people with PS3's that will trade me all day long for my Elite xbox. Plus the PS3 has blue ray.

I also then wouldn't have to worry about the dreaded red ring of death that has plauged the xbox.
