[quote name='mykevermin']Is SH2 BC on the 360? I still think I have a copy of it.[/QUOTE]

It is but it's broke, mine loaded the first time but every time I try and play it on my 360 after that I get a black screen.

I can tell the game is running cos I can hear the noise as I move round the menu options, but the screen is black. :bomb:

Sucks cos I wanted to play through it.
 
I have played through and finished Dead Space. I enjoyed it a lot. Working on Bully and Endwar. The demo's for Dead Space and Endwar didn't do those games justice. I thought bought of them sucked due to issues in the demos.

Oh well. Last Xbox game I tried to play that was BC was Fable: TLC. It, too, froze on a slew of occasions.

Maybe I should break out my old Xbox instead. Where the hell did I put it?
 
I need to get back to playing the Fatal Frame series... too bad we'll never see 4.

Edit: I should mention that the only problem I ran into while playing Fatal Frame on the 360 was the video wouldn't show during a boss introduction(I think it was the long armed ghost). It's pretty minor and you could probably find the video on youtube if you cared enough.

SH2 on 360 BC starts out fine but then ALWAYS freezes 20-50 seconds after I start playing, It is pretty lame.


Anyways, Anyone looking forward to the new Twisted Pixel game announced at PAX?

Comic Jumper: The Adventures of Captain Smiley


I REALLY enjoyed "The Maw" and "'Splosion Man"...Really unique games that everyone should give a try.
 
Cool, the NBA Live 10 demo is out. Gotta check it out tonight. I might actually have time since I still haven't figured out how to play the newly nerfed munitions class in Champions, and I think I might've lost my free respec due to a bug last night. >_<

I guess I'll find out for sure when I log in tonight.

Both of us?

I'm having fun with it. It's probably going on amazon afterward, though.

I never tried The Maw, but Splosion Man didn't do it for me.

Comic Jumper seems cool. I liked the trailer.
 
[quote name='gunm']I gots de GS early start fo dat U2 MP demo...yeeahhh I be excited.[/QUOTE]

Jekki?

[quote name='dallow']Uncharted 2 MP demo is packed with content, damn.[/QUOTE]

If it's anything like the beta, why should I give a damn?
 
Ditto. Then I used it to knock a total of ~25 dollars off the upcoming Hori Real Arcade Pro sticks. fucking awesome. I'm going to be buying more games that pop up in my gold box.
 
[quote name='Nelo Ice']i just got a free year of ECA :D[/QUOTE]


Me toooooo!!!!! Hellz yah! I redid some pre-orders just now. Better before they run out of codes (like I'm assuming they will once this deal steamrolls).
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']i see it... i'd jump on it but... um I don't like that i gotta cancel before the end of the year... i'm too slow to remember.[/QUOTE]


someone posted they canceled already and the memberships still active
 
Yeah, the CC thing doesn't bother me too much.

I just wish I had known about this earlier for my Beatles RB and IL-2 orders. >_<

The other bad thing is that now I'm even more tempted to buy shit I was going to pass over like Demon's Souls Deluxe (it'd be like getting the deluxe for the price of the regular almost). Good thing the NBA 2K10 LE isn't on sale, even 10% off it's still too expensive. :p

Yeah, if they dropped that puppy $20, I'd be a lot more inclined to pick it up, but even $90 is way too much for a sports game. Even an awesome one like 2K's tend to be.

Edit: oh ho, shit! I just redid the order for my Tekken Wireless Stick Bundle -- $59.99!! 50% off (trade-in promo from a few months ago) + 10% off ECA. MW2 Presitige Edition - Trade-in credit and 10% off ECA = $75. I LOVE IT.
 
[quote name='RelentlessRolento']K hopped on the ECA thing and got it... awesome... I'll prob be using amzon alot more now.[/QUOTE]
If you haven't done a free prime test drive yet . . . ;)

whats good about it?

I know the quick and free shipping... but I'll prob hold off on it till I want to order a game they have a good deal on for a good price.

Free 2nd day shipping is my favorite part. Maybe look at the future releases and time your trial around multiple launches. It is great for clearance stuff, DoTD and those one day $9 :br: deals; no worrying with fillers.

good idea... there's alot in october I want so I'll save it for then.
 
[quote name='Jesus_S_Preston']think im gonna drop out of schol guys[/QUOTE]


If it's "too hard", then ur a pussy. If its because other reasons, then it might be valid.

College is hard as fuck, but don't feel like you have to force yourself to take the degree you are planning. There's no rush, just take time to figure it out if needed.
 
Got in some more Prince of Persia tonight. I'm digging it a lot. Looks great, great platforming, not very much combat (which was always the low point of the series for me).

Aren't you an arts major? College is not hard as fuck :lol:

Now if you majored in something like engineering or a hard science...

Also, DON'T take the advice of there is no rush. Your 4 years will fly by fast. Get on track asap and have a solid, attainable vocational plan.

:lol: the worst known idea about art school is that it's not hard. I will say it's jsut as hard as getting a law degree, it's just a toally different state of mind.

Go to my college and tell me everything I have done is easier than any other degree... most standard art schools i agree are shit, but the onese who care, like mine, are like boot camp with whipping.

no offense but at least reconsider your viewpoint on the matter.
 
My one friend who just finished law school had 150-200 pages of reading a night, on top of everything else.

I'm sure art school is just as difficult.

It's not an insult to say you have an easy major, but don't compare it to a hard science or law or engineering.
 
Just throwing this out there...

My major was Industrial Design, I started out with 40 people by the time I left there was only 10 of us. I'm pretty sure only 3 graduated out of that. That was an INCREASE of the number of graduates too...

The amount of work, time, and goals behind the degrees are the same.

I'm sure an engineering student would have a harder time taking art than engineering and vice versa.

my freshman class had 45, and it dropped down to 20 at this point >_
 
I never found college to be too difficult, once I was doing what I wanted to be doing.

Now, my first year was in a pre-med program, and about 3 months in I decided I hated chemistry in all it's forms. Then, college was the most difficult thing I've ever done.

But my 2nd school I went to was a lot "easier" even if there was more work, because I liked what I was doing. That makes a big difference.
 
I'm kind of steamed right now over the World Tour song import feature in Guitar Hero 5. I own World Tour, only the copy I have is for the PS2-- I didn't have a 360 yet last year. The manual for the PS2 version doesn't have the unique owner code that I need to do the import. I'm trying to get a code from Activision but their support is giving me the runaround. I don't understand why it matters what console I owned the game for, as long as I legitimately owned it. And why doesn't the PS2 version come with a code anyway-- do they just think that anyone who bought a PS2 game in the series would just keep buying it for PS2 until the end of time? :bomb:

Now I know what you PC gamers dealing with DRM feel like-- like you've done everything right and are now being punished for being a good customer rather than a pirate. :bomb:

Anyone who has a World Tour code but doesn't plan on buying 5, I'd be forever grateful if you let me use it. :p
