Recommended Posts

The rape to my wallet was hard and fast and left me feeling empty and violated. I'm fully losded with extra controllers, wireless adaptor, xbox live membership etc etc, or at least i will be next week some time...... but I'm very late to the xbox party, What should i play?

on the cards:

EDF

Crackdown

Dead rising

everything seems kinda meh, it's more of a future investment (mass effect). but anything i should grab? Especially co-op titles.

If you walk, I'd hobble down to the shop and get Dead Rising. Even if you hate it, you'll still love the awesome boss death cut-scenes. Also, Carcassonne and Catan proved enjoyable.

Also.

Throw your name in the gamertag thread and I'm sure you'll be up to your ass in friends in no time. Yay for people!

Also, all three games that you mentioned are stellar. Get them.

My top three are:

Guitar Hero II - Being a geek has never been so much fun

Gear of War - Just plain, simple, well-crafted fun

Bioshock - Scary and extremely well made

a nice 40" bravia, an older model but still a great one :)

bye bye inheritance / savings, hello HD games.

Bioshock is very much a pc game, and so my pc has been running that, although I am yet to complete it actually...

Sony was right about one thing though, their hardware is way worth the money, sadly they have no games. 360 + wifi + HDDVD stuff + charge kits = more than a ps3 costs, which has all of that included.

i didnt get the HDDVD shit btw ¬¬

edit: hah! i just noticed that literally since yesterday when i bought the TV, new models exist on the sony website. Typical :)

I'm happy with my purchase though, at least in theory, it isn't here yet :)

Holding down the PS3 hate. Avoiding the obvious comments...

- Super Puzzle Fighter (although there are several issues that are severely broken)

- Streets of Rage 2

- Band of Bugs

In terms of XLA titles I've been pleasantly surprised by.

- Full Auto

- Condemened: Criminal origins

- Tombraider: Legend

- Kameo

Are the other, non essential but really rather enjoyable (and cheap) games I've trawled through.
