Ganepark32 Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 Anyone else tried the Section 8 demo? If you haven't and were thinking of trying it, don't bother. It's multiplayer only but it's so sluggish and feels overly heavy on the controls. Didn't enjoy it at all and from that demo, I'm doubting the final product will fix any of the problems with the multiplayer and actualy make it enjoyable. Don't know about the single player though so there could be a chance it's still decent but I'm doubting it based on that performance.
Cube Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 The singleplayer on the demo is just the same as online but with bots. From the feel of the game, the main singleplayer will just be these matches rather than an actual campaign.

Me too. But not until after I found a copy in HMV (after weeks of going in and asking) for £45. Gonna hopefully return it asap.
Ramar Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Random question time now gents. Are the Wireless Network Adapters region free? Just that in two weeks or so I'm heading to America, and with things being a little cheaper out there, I didn't want to get one and it didn't work when I got it home. My current thought was that all 360 peripherals were region free, but I thought I'd ask here before making a mistake.
S.C.G Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 Ramar said: Is the Wireless Network Adapter region free?) ... .. . Yes... Yes it is! are you happy now?... Jussssst kidding but seriously afaik all peripherals are region free, hope this helps.
Cube Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Amazon Germany also leaked the PS3 Slim. The price roughly works out to be £250.

Blockbuster are pushing the ps3 slim, woman came in asking for a pre-owned ps3 before and blockbuster practically forced her into getting a new one! haha:indeed:

I saw in the newspaper the 360 elite for £199.99 in GAME with two of these: CoD4 GTAIV Fight... whatever the new boxing and golf games are called (I forget, all the boxes look the same)

Retro_Link Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Yeah the new cheaper Elites just come with a component cable.
m_fergy Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Just been an ordered all my game from now until the end of the year... 360 HALO 3 ODST DEAD RISING 2 FIFA 10 MODERN WARFARE 2 LEFT 4 DEAD 2 ASSASSINS CREED 2 PS3 UNCHARTED 2 WII NEW SUPER MARIO BROS RESI EVIL DARKSIDE Looking to be a good last few months of gaming... Glad iv got some PS3 and WII games to play on as they never get touched. What you guys getting ?
Cube Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 I'm getting Halo OSTD, Left 4 Dead 2, Modern Warfare 2, Spirit Tracks and Scribblenauts. Retro_Link said: Yeah the new cheaper Elites just come with a component cable. It comes with a composite Cable. Which means that soon there will be no consoles that will be HD from the box.
Hero-of-Time Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 m_fergy said: What you guys getting ? 360 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Halo: ODST Left 4 Dead 2 Forza 3 Assasins Creed 2 PS3 Uncharted 2 Eyepet Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time Gran Turismo 5 ( if it makes it out this year ) Tekken 6 ( still not sure whther I will get this on the 360 or not ) PSP Gran Turismo Jak and Daxter Soul Calibur Final Fantasy: Dissidia Motorstorm DS Kingdom Hearts Scribblenaughts Zelda: Spirit Tracks Mario and Luigi 3 Phantasy Star Zero Wii New Super Mario Bros. Resident Evil Darkside Chronicles A Boy and his Blob SpyBorgs ....and a partridge in a pear tree Many were saying how the end of year lineup is lacking this year but looking at the list methinks there is plenty to play.
Ganepark32 Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 (edited) My list goes a little something like this: 360 Halo ODST (Yes, I guess I'm a sucker for the Halo franchise but Fireflight looks awesome) Left 4 Dead 2 Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Borderlands (not overly sure about this. Will watch for reviews) Beatles Rock Band Wii A Boy and His Blob Spyborgs Perhaps New Super Mario Bros. although not liking the DS one is putting me off this PS3 ...Eyepet DS Zelda: Spirit Tracks Scribblenauts Kingdom Hearts Probably more for other consoles but in all actuality, I'm not really fussed. ----------------- Chronicles of Riddick. Picked it up for £19.98. Good price or not? Haven't given it a go yet but it's had decent enough reviews to make that price reasonable. Also picked up the first Gears of War so can now fill in some of the story. Edited August 28, 2009 by Ganepark32
MATtheHAT Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Xbox Halo 3 ODST. PS3 Rock Band: The Beatles Operation Flashpoint: Dragon Rising Uncharted 2 Tekken 6 Modern Warfare 2 Assasins Creed 2 MAG Gran Turismo 5 Wii Tatsunoko Vs Capcom (import)
MATtheHAT Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 Doubt it, unless it really is unmissable. Its not really my type of game.
Roostophe Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 I'm pretty sure I'll be getting just Beatles Rock Band, FIFA 10 and WWE SmackDown Vs Raw 2010. Any other interesting games (Batman: Arkham Asylum), will be what my brother's getting. Speaking of which, a package from Play.com came for him yesterday, but he's at Leeds Fest. I wager that the package is indeed Arkham Asylum.
ThePigMarcher Posted August 28, 2009 Posted August 28, 2009 (edited) It's shaping up to be an inexpensive run-in for me, as the only games I will probably be picking up are :- 360 Brutal Legend NHL '10 (maybe) I'm sure there were one or two others but possible not Wii Dead Space Extraction (maybe) Rune Factory Frontier (Imported, seeing as it seems to have disappeared from PAL schedules). Edited August 28, 2009 by ThePigMarcher
LegoMan1031 Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 (edited) Off the top of my head i think mine is something like this: 360 Halo ODST Left 4 Dead 2 Modern Warefare 2 (still not sure on console) Perfect Dark XBLA Shadow Complex (not yet bought) Maybe Tekken 6 PS3 Rachet and Clank Uncharted 2 Gran Turismo 5 Maybe Tekken 6 Modern Warefare 2 (still not sure on console) Maybe Mag Wii Maybe new super mario bros Resident Evil: Dark side Cronicles Metriod Prime trilogy There is probably others but thats all i can think of right now. Edited August 30, 2009 by Mike1988uk Remembered a game!
Shorty Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 You guys and your crazy lists, don't you have anything else to do in your lives? For me its like... Halo ODST, PDXBLA on the 360, One Piece on the Wii and maybe that new Zelda DS game.
jayseven Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 L4D2, Assassin's Creed 2, PDXBLA... Thassit for me!
Wesley Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 Maybe Modern Warfare 2... but if I get that for Live I'll have to buy Gold too... so I might not. But if I do decided to do that I'd also pick up PDXBLA. I also might go for the new Mario on the Wii. Either that or pick up Zelda: TP cheap. Or I might just not get anything. Didn't buy anything last year Sep-Dec apart from Fallout 3.
Bren Posted August 29, 2009 Posted August 29, 2009 cod, halo and assassins for me, and ill probably spend abit on xbla. Iv had more fun from XBLA than i have from retail games, i love it Trials HD is shit hot btw!
