Gizmo Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Fable 2 or Far Cry 2? That is the dilemna.... Crap, I had totally forgotten about Far Cry. So many awesome games coming out soon.
spirited away Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Crap, I had totally forgotten about Far Cry. So many awesome games coming out soon. But the same day is just overkill! Will have to somehow find playtime for both on that Friday.
Gizmo Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Oh I'm not even gonna try and play both at once. My original plan was Fable 2, then after a couple of weeks whenever I am done with it I'll get Fallout. But now you've added Far Cry into the mix. Gonna have to fit that in somewhere. Fable Dead Space Far Cry Fallout Gears Of War Banjo Kazooie Mirrors Edge Left4Dead Not including Rock Band 2/GHWT, Prince of Persia, EndWar that I may or may not get. And this is only games with release dates on GameFAQs, and only 360. Last year was busy, but this year is even worse!
Hero-of-Time Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Ive been playing the CoD:WaW beta today and its taking me a while to get used to it due to me playing Halo 3 all last week. On Halo im used to running and gunning and still being able to finish the fight but with CoD im getting killed in a few shots, respawning and then getting killed again . Its nice to see the ranking/perks system make a return though.
McPhee Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Fable 2 or Far Cry 2? That is the dilemna.... Both for me Far Cry 2 on PC rather than PC, swear i saw it somewhere on the net for £18! I'll trade games in to get Fable. Think i'll be skipping on Fallout 3 for a while, i'm really hyped for it but my sensible head says £15 or £20 in the January sales :p

Hero-of-Time Posted October 11, 2008 Posted October 11, 2008 Where did you get your Beta code from? I preordered CoD from GAMEs website. They send out the beta codes every Friday if you preorder with them. Eurogamer has some beta codes starting next week so keep an eye on there aswell.

Nintenchris Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 The call of duty world at war beta is pretty damn awesome !! Nice to see they haven't strayed too far from the CoD4 multiplayer because that is pure perfection! Only one thing let's it down and that's the maps.. I personaly don't enjoy 2 of the 3 in the beta.. But I'm sure there will be better ones in the full game.
Hero-of-Time Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Cheers dude. I'm keeping an eye on Eurogamer atm; was just wondering how you got yours earlier. Impressions? Too be honest I havent played on it much, been too busy with Lego Batman Ive nearly finished that though so I will pobably dabble with the beta some more.
Triple_C Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Yay, HMV replaced my 360. 40 extra gigabytes, which is nice. I guess I could install loads of games on my hard drive when NXE (god, I hate that name) comes out.
Shorty Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Speaking of the "NXE" (...) I can't believe I missed the fact that it has a date! November 19 eh?, personally I think it looks awesome Looking forward to it. Hopefully my 360 won't be off in Germany somewhere getting fixed on the release date....
Hero-of-Time Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Methinks my 360 is dying Im getting weird graphical glitches on the dashboard and in games, kinda looks like the weird writing off the Matrix. EDIT: Yup its died. I knew if I turned it off and then back on it wouldnt work. To top if off its only got 1 red light in the bottom right so that means I have to pay to get it fixed, right? Im gonna faff on with it and see if I can get it working, if not then I guess I will have to phone Microsoft I hope I get to talk with someone who speaks english!
Shorty Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 I got one red light. I never phoned anyone or paid anything, I just went through the online process for xbox repair, saying its broken/showing red lights/won't start and returned it for free. 11 day turnaround. From what people have been saying, I'll probably be doing that again within the next few days (got 3 red lights recently)
Hero-of-Time Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Thanks Shorty but I had already phoned them up. For once I got an english lass on the phone, must have been her first day or something as she sounded nervous, cost me £59 to get it fixed though. To be fair I would rather it broke now then when the likes of Gears and Banjo have arrived. Im just hoping I get it back in time for Fable 2.
Nintenchris Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 That makes 3 of us!!! My new Elite i only got a few weeks ago has stopped reading disks! it just says "open tray" no matter what game is in there Sooooo tomorow ill be off to gamestation to see if they will swap it for another seeing as its only been a matter of 2 weeks Wish me luck

S.C.G Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 cost me £59 to get it fixed though Ouch... any time one of my 360's has broke I've always said RROD, no way I'm paying for a repair until I absolutely have to.
Caris Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Thanks Shorty but I had already phoned them up.

There repair centers must be so busy they wouldn't say anything. Even if they did just say you got them at your house. It's not like it's a uncommon thing.
