XCOM is great. If you can snag it for $25 that's super awesome. But you'll have to brave Walmart. I'd just wait for it to drop to $40 at amazon and call it a day. LOL. Or really I think it's nearly worth full price. I say nearly because I don't think any game is worth $60 no matter how good. Games should be $50 tops.

MSU, looking at your gamer card I see you play XCOM. I tried the demo when it first hit the dashboard, but I couldn't get past the whole moving each player to a certain spot. I been thinking of giving it another shot because the game really looks good.

I like strategy games, and two of my all-time favorites are turn-based ones: Heroes of Might & Magic 3 & Valkryia Chronicles 1, which has influences on XCom. Also really enjoyed the Advance War games, and liked FF Tactics well enough.

It's not a misprint on Horizon being $15 at WM on BF, if you look at the ad, you can see Horizon's pink spine easily.

My XCom play was from a free rental from Family Video so it'll be awhile before I play again.

I'm playing right now if anyone is down.

Oh, its clearly the cover art for Forza Horizon, no doubt about it, but let me put it this way... If people show up for Black Friday to be greeted by Forza 4 being on sale and employees who can only shrug powerless at the mistake... I wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

Sent a request to the CAG group while I had the game rented.

Finally got my copy like a week later but turns out I got it for free as a b-day gift for the delay!

I made the mistake of promoting krashhole to club leader instead of just adding him to the leaders... This removed me from the leaders and I can no longer add people to the club. He's suppose to promote/add me to the leaders again.

Anyhow, I logged in today to try and add you but he has not add me so I can not help out you or anyone else... Hopefully, he be online today to take care of it.

How are more people not playing this? And why is it so damn hard to get into a game. They also should have a separate section to show what club members are online.

I think it's the Halo effect. That's what I'm playing now. though I do plan to go back to horizon.

Am I the only one with zero interest to play halo? I bought halo3 again because my son wanted it and I tried to play a little and was completely turned off.

I played some Horizon today and sent an application to the CAG club. I'll admit I'm also playing Halo 4 but once Black Ops II comes out on Tuesday that's where most of my time will be spent but I'll still play some Horizon for my racing fix.

Also, how do you get the bonus cars for playing the demo?

Nope. Horizon is my main game. I haven't been online yet but maybe I'll jump on tonight.

Once you've played the demo you will get a message in horizon where you can get the car.

I just hopped on. Ill be messing around in single player. Send me an invite.

Sorry fellas. Been super busy today. Inmate, I will log on and take care of that now bro.

halo 4 is a lot better than halo 3 in every way. I wasn't a fan of 3 either.

I have NEVER been a fan of Halo MP, only the SP campaign. But with Halo 4, the MP is awesome.

Its cool. I see that you did what I did and demoted yourself right off the leader list... Honestly, I'm not sure what they where think with that one click demotion thing, you should not be able to accidentally remove yourself from group leader and a co-leader all in one click... That issue, when clicking on the wrong member could outright kill a club's ability to add any members if the newly promoted member never boots the game up again.

Anyhow, I got you added to the leadership group which gives us four now... I'm not sure how active the other two are but the two of us should be able to cover stuff in the here and now.

No you're certainly not the only one... I know many of friends with no interest in playing the game/series... but I honestly feel that people should give it a try if at all possible. Its been a real amazing experience so far and one that while Halo does feel evolved.

I'm old enough to remember playing split screen MP Halo: CE and loving it... but not really loving the rest of the series minus Reach's MP... but truth be told I mostly played SWAT or Anniversary so its likely more of an engine I liked and not so much the normal MP experience.

But I went to the garage and it wasn't there. I got my Forza 2/3 loyalty car.

It's not in your garage. It is in your in game messages.
