    Thank you! Looks like mine ends in april. I will be picking one up


    In unrelated news, Bioshock 2 is amazing! I think it could pass fallout/oblivion as my favorite game. If you haven't checked the bioshock series out, DOOO ETTT

    Anyone completed Forza 2 career? Yes,i know it is old but i want to know what trick you guys used to complete the Enduarance races especially the Porsche race. I tuned the car but still lost midway the long laps and kinda gave it a break as i have no time.

    ^^tried the demo for it, can't say it was that much fun. the walking to the battle gets long, and when you first start out you quickly die, so more walking.

    Anyone who's not playing Battlefield Bad Company 2 is a sucker.

    Anyone who is, well, you're just a sucker for FUN.

    call xbox, i know it sucks waiting forever. but IIRC you need to clean out the memory or something. and i don't remember the buttons you need to hit to access this. so call them tell them your problem and they should be able to tell you. since i had this problem before. or google it i am sure someone someplace has the button list for this problem.

    its easy if you power done his big attack. just run a medic and when the boss does his big attack just keep hitting him you hit him enough times he grunts you can get him to grunt 2 times before he attacks if you get him to grunt once his attack losses50% power get him to grunt 2 times the attack losses75% of power.

    Yeah, but you could argue that Forza 3 was a strong argument for why dev shops should wait a bit longer for release. Hopefully they have learned what works and what doesn't for this release.

    Yeah Forza 3 had some nice additions, but still felt like playing 2 all over again. I hope 4 is better.

    I actually loved Forza 2. It spent the better part of a year in the disc tray. 3 had some nice additions, but the manner in which those additions were implemented was so obtuse and unusable that I've barely played it at all. I didn't even pick it up until it had been out for six months. The first time I tried to play, I tried to get in a race for 20 minutes before giving up. Didn't play it again for months...

    Features for the sake of features is weaksauce, IMO. Expand on the core stuff that made 2 awesome (arbitrary matchmaking, etc), then if there's resources left over AFTERWARDS, add in some whiz-bang.

    I really want to test out the Move for shooter games before i buy it. I know the 1st gen of Wii remotes were very lame for shooters... i hear the 2nd gen / add on you can get for them helps. I just want to test the move controller before i buy them for COD. Anyone try them out yet?



    What that being said... anyone have money down on Black Ops yet?

    Kinect is the bomb, black ops will be sweet and i'm looking to buy a new xbox soon.... probably the 250 gb kinect bundle. What i'd love for xbox to do is to just make wifi in all xbox's. they should have done that from the beginning.

    ^ Which one are you lookin at? I might go with the G27, although the GT3 RS with the player pedals looks very nice. (but spendy)
