i prob won't. too many games to finish. it's really insane. have you been playing gta iv?

 

[runtlocks]

haven't even got it, boy i haven't bought a retail game since the orange box.

i'll get it eventually, probs when holidayz roll in. pretty happy playing halo 3 w/ friends until ninja gaiden 2 comes out.

penny arcade out next weeeeekk

 

[runtlocks]

just finished the demo of penny arcade, it's alright...i guess

 

[runtlocks]

ninja gaiden 2 demo out! haven't had the chance to d/l it because my gold sub just expired.

bought mass effect for $50 from eb, what a wonderful game. good combat mechanic

 

[runtlocks]

aces of the galaxy is some crazy awesome old school shit, played thru the demo and am definitely going to pick it up.

there's some great prices floating around, skate for $40 something, and condemned 2 for $49 from jb

 

[stazi]

eternal sonata for $29 at jb!

 

[runtlocks]

yeah, crazy

also, pes 2008 for $49, r6v2 for $59

NINJA GAIDEN 2 ON THURSDAY

just clocked the demo. satisfying

 

[stazi]

got ricky ponting cricket 2007 in today. lol.

I've been playing the demo non stop for the past two weeks. I suck

 

[blakegman]

i always found cricket games to be pretty daft. Bowling is monototous and the batting is rather slow.

Just the nature of the game in video form i guess.

 

[stazi]

it's not that great a game, but it's a lot of fun. i only started liking cricket this year, so it's all a novelty to me.

i think this game would be amazing to play with fwendz though

 

[blakegman]

I doubt it could beat the awesomeness of fifa though.

is RPC the one where it's unlicensed, so all the players names are changed (Gulchrist, Haydon etc or something)

 

[stazi]

nah i think it's licensed. it's nowhere near as good as fifa or pes, but it's good because we don't often see cricket games.

 

[blakegman]

nah i think it's licensed. it's nowhere near as good as fifa or pes, but it's good because we don't often see cricket ,games.

Completely dissapointing stazi.

You failed to turn games into gaymes.

Rookie error.

 

[runtlocks]

finished mass effect the other day.

started straight away on an evil character

 

[runtlocks]

downloaded dark sector demo. it's decent, i guess.

gonna try that new dbz game

 

[runtlocks]

whoa ninja gaiden 2 is really whippin' me at the moment

 

[runtlocks]

finished ninja gaiden 2! very flawed, i agree, but still. there's nothing else out there that matches its combat system. starting again on a tougher difficulty level.


taking suggestions for games to play on 360. might rent bad company and see how that goes.

some pics of my 360 + new tv (note that pics are unsharp as the tv doesn't have a freeze frame mode - I was simply photographing the images whilst moving):

upscaling of divx file via 360 below. I think it looks amazing for a file in a native resolution of 512x384
