How about Bully?
Smaller version of GTA without the visceral thrill of popping a cap up some random guys arse. My initial impression was '  ' but after a couple of days it was '  '. Granted it may have gotten better, but with everything else coming out I didn't have the time to make myself try and like it before I traded it in.

If you had set it up through me instead of grabbing the crappy Vonage wireless router you'd have had a better experience. (and I would have gotten my two free months) Live and learn I guess... live and learn.
People that have things called families who share things like numbers, and/or live in regions where they have poor cell service. someone's in a snippy mood this morning  Yo mama. the celloist?

If MS sends you a replacement 360 does that mean you automatically get a 90 day warranty extension? I just received a letter from them about signing up for the extended warranty and it says my current coverage expires in February 2007. I'll have to check the serial number on the letter with what's on the back of the 360, but if memory serves it looks pretty close. Did anyone who had to get a replacement system get this?

What is different about this Narnia vs. the other "Collectors" of Narnia?
All I've heard is that it's 4 discs along the lines of the Lord of the Rings extended editions. I haven't picked any version of the movie yet so I figure I might as well go with this one.

I thought I felt a disturbance in the Force, as if million of Fallout Purists had cried out in outrage and then silenced as they choked on their cheetohs....
This sounds more promising than the Firefly MMO.

Only 13 more days and no more constant X-Mas music!!!!!!  I was hoping for a white christmas this year but with the temperatures forecasted to be in the 50's and 60's up to at least the 20th my hope is fading :icon_sad: I need to pick up a small fake tree (no room for a big one this year), so maybe doing that will help. it's looking like I'm not going to have any real plans for New Years Eve this year plus my birthday is coming up and who knows what I'll be doing for that.

Honestly, I would have preferred this for the Wii if it was going to be on a Nintendo console. The DS version looks pretty lame. I would've preferred it on the Wii as well. But "lame"? Geez man. :icon_confused: It's not coming out for the system he has a hard on for currently, so you'll have to forgive him

" We're taking licensing to the next level with this franchise." Oh, yeah!  Seriously...who says something like that? "We are taking commercialization to the next level!" Sounds like something EA would say before trying to sell you Need for SPeed: Carbon downloads... It kinda sounds like they're going to give the actors an incentive to be involved/promote the game and not 'phone it in' when you take into account the whole portion: Rob Lightner, vp business development, said Sega is in talks with actors from the films, including Sigourney Weaver and Lance Henriksen, to reprise their movie roles by providing their likenesses and voice roles for the games.
"We haven't finalized anything at this point, but everything is on the table," Lightner said. "It's important for everyone to understand the difference here: We're taking licensing to the next level with this franchise." That said... Alien the RPG? WTF?????

So, part of me says "Buy Now" and part of me says "Wait for the must-have games and (hopefully) a more stable system". So torn...
If there's a definite sign that MS is releasing 3rd gen 360's (or 2nd, but I remember hearing they're on the 2nd gen arlready) I'd wait. However, unless they make major cosmetic changes, how you'd be able to tell what gen they are is beyond me. They have a manufactured date and serial number you can check right on top of the box. yeah, but unless MS says 'we've got a 3rd gen of 360's out' and give a specific date on which they started making them I'm not sure how to tell. I guess your best bet would be to check the date before buying, and look for the most recent one. who'd of thought you're best way to get a good 360 would be to check the date like a bottle of milk?

I was speaking about the cover mechanic specifically. I'm not sure how it will be handled with a mouse & keyboard. It is an integral part of the game, and if it's awkward, it could really be a problem. Obviously, the rest of the controls will probably be great. Another big selling point is if the PC version has random location spawns for the Terrorist Hunt modes. That would be wonderful.
The controls are going to be the deal maker or breaker for me too, but I'm not in any hurry to pick up the PC version (seems most people are interested in the 360 version). I'm really on the fence with Star Trek Legacy for the 360. I think I'll wait and hope for a demo (PC or 360), so nothing for me this weekend.
