Posted March 27, 2006 I'm all up for achievements and i agree with Kameo one, its the only game i've ever propperly finished. No good games out for a while now for the 360. Far Cry this week however i think. Then its Tomb Raider (hopefully be good, its by Crystal Dynamics), Top Spin 2, Battlefield 2: Modern Combat (hopefully better than the original). Then nothing for a loooong time. When's Gears of War out again? :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 27, 2006 Widescreen TV = 16:9 Widescreen monitors = 16:10. Most games can compliment for this, however for some reason burnout doesn't. Its not major, you just have a black boarder all the way around it. Hmm.. A friend of mine brought over Burnout. I played it in 1080i res. And it looks absolutley fantastic.

Posted March 28, 2006 Table Tennis by Rockstar is commming out in May. That game'll be gooood. I'll wait for more hands-on previews before preordering this. I have no-idea how it's going to play! Cannot wait for Tomb-Raider! It seems the level design is good, the controls are much better and the story isn't too shabby, the graphics are not next-gen enough though...but i was kinda expecting that. Top-Spin 2 is rumoured to be delayed...again...we should here something this week if it is, otherwise they have left it too late, have they ever confirmed 7/04/06? Future titles include Dead-Rising which is scheduled for June i think, but i reckon it could come out September! Other then that, nothing for at least 4 months...at the moment. Oh and what the heck happened to Frame City Killer? Alan Wake? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 28, 2006 ive just bought some xbox live points and i dont knopw what to spend them. i have geometry wars already, does anyone else have any recommendations as what other arcade games i should download? thanks Marble Blast is probably the best XBLA title out now (other than Geometry Wars) - an addictive 60 levels of single player and a fun online multiplayer. Well worth the 800 points. Smash TV is a good slice of nostalgia for 400 points which also has online multi. Of course you could always wait for Street Fighter 2 which will probably be released very soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 28, 2006 The fact there are no more must-have games hitting for a while fills my wallet with immense joy. You have no idea what these £50 a pop games are doing to our friendship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 28, 2006 You should try buying them from WHSmith, I saw GRAW in there for £32 today... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 28, 2006 You should try buying them from WHSmith, I saw GRAW in there for £32 today... You sure that was the 360 version? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 28, 2006 Some guy on the official Xbox forums said that if you pull out the enthernet cable, it will improve the load times and draw distance on Oblivion. I tried it, the load times are better but I'm not really sure about the draw distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 28, 2006 You should try buying them from WHSmith, I saw GRAW in there for £32 today... Your kidding? Thats cheaper then Gameplay! I suppose a little gap in the 360 releases wouldn't hurt! I've just read a hands-on preview of the Table Tennis game and it doesn't sound too shabby! I like the fact you can do loads of fast rallies etc...and for £25 (minus my gameplay discount) it ain't a bad price! So thats March, April and May with a good lot of 360 releases (well, April and May having 2 each). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 28, 2006 I'm looking forward to Top-Spin Tennis too, should be a hoot over Xbox live. Aside from that, I think this is going to be the summer of the Xbox Live Arcade. Betting buy some more Microsoft points... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 29, 2006 So was I m8, but just read Team Xbox's review read That ain't too bad, one point away from 8.0? :awesome: Still it's not good to know it isn't that next-gen, i'm expecting next-gen titles on my 360 now and the techinical issues are a little annoying because it has been delayed quite alot of times. From December 2nd to January and then from January to April. Still i love tennis, so i'll still be keeping my preorder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really care if it's not that next gen, as long as it's as good as the original and you can now play doubles online then it's good enough for me.
