Just wondering... is it possible to get the Professor Portal achievement by playing with someone split-screen? I don't want to touch the co-op mode yet as I could help someone out online, but just wondering if anybody has tried to get it by using a non-Gold local gamertag in ss? EDIT: never...

Ooooooh... Gift Card credit, not future VG credit. Hmmm..... that changes my equation... plus the ~$25 still burning a hole in my pocket from the Coinstar Amazon GC I got tonight. Dang... I so want in on this, but I know wifey will not be pleased at me taking away yet another father's day gift...

I've tried playing flOw a couple of times now, and the controls just aren't intuitive. I'm constantly fighting them to get my creature to do what I want... whereas with Flower, it's much more refined and easy to learn.

The IGN review is pretty thorough, looks like tons of mazes (a lot more than in CE), plus you can customize the look & feel of the board in several different ways, lots of combinations possible. I'll do the trial first just in case, but I can't see any reason why this won't be a day 1 purchase...

NBA Jam - I have such great memories playing this game years ago on the original PSX. Was thinking of biting at full price, could be a fun Thanksgiving Day game for the family, but will probably wait for the inevitable price drop - and let the fam play with it on XMas instead. :) Oh, and 3rd on...

Keep in mind, the "cutscenes" are all rendered in-game. I think Rockstar has managed to create, after all of these years, the kind of game I always wondered "I wonder what folks will be playing in the future". GTA games have grown larger, more detailed, and more story oriented as they have...

I _might_ give this a try, but jeez, $15 is way overpriced for this one. If it weren't for the dearth of quality PSN releases as of late I would just wait for a price drop.

In 4 1 for the long weekend!

Today's Google "Doodle" is a real live, fully working Pac-Man game done in the style of the Google logo. Most likely free / live for today only, just go to the Google.com home page, and wait a few seconds for the game to automatically start, control with the arrow keys. Bonus - click on the...

In for da moniez!

Oh... I see Amazon is a participating retailer in the pre-order bonus... score!

I have to say, after all of the build up and anticipation over the last couple of years, I was very glad to find the demo did not disappoint me. I can see how this game will require some patience at first, and naturally, being essentially what I'll call a true "interactive fiction" piece, there...

Played through the first four levels so far - been going back to try and 100% everything, but it's definitely a great game - glad to see another quality release, and no doubt there will be an expansion for this one too.

Sweet, I get to reply back to my own post! :) I bought this, and played for a good 3 hours tonight. All the comparisons to PJM pretty much end at the graphics and sound - this is a totally different game, very much a "lite" version of an RTS, but paced fairly quickly, and tailor made for single...

I read elsewhere that this is similar to a game called Galcon. After playing that for a solid hour now (free flash version), and the free iPhone version, I'm curious to see how much more gameplay there is in MW. For $10, it might be worth it - seems like there are upgrades to the bases, and if I...

jeez, no trading levels except with friends? I _might_ have bit at 1200 failpoints had that not been cock locked, but no way - I'm not about supporting more barriers to community. MS, WAKE UP, time to join the 21st century!

I don't expect this game to get less than a 9 / 10 out of any major advertiser supported review site - the hype-o-meter for this one is approaching epic proportions, so no matter what, it's going to shine. I'm counting on everyone here for honest unbiased feedback... as for my own opinion, based...

ok... I read through the last few pages of comments, and my take is that this is mainly a multiplayer game? I'm not too thrilled with the prospect of throwing away $15 on a game that has as many problems getting into a game as has been reported here, but on the other hand, the hype machine has...

My RROD repair timeline, in case anybody's curious on current turnaround time - 7/26/09 - RROD 7/27/09 - Drop off my packaged XB360 with pre-paid printed out label from MS, shipped via UPS Ground to Mesquite, TX 7/30/09 - Arrival at Mesquite facility. 7/31/09 - Three e-mails in very...

Some of the user reviews coming in on Amazon are complaining about the WM+ controls not being true 1:1, and some inadvertent hitting of the ball if you wind up too much, plus no backspin, in the EA game (Grand Slam). That being said, I still want to believe that's the game to get, since it...
