Stocka Posted March 29, 2006 Author Posted March 29, 2006 In the latest Famitsu: NINETY NINE NIGHTS 10/9/9/9 (37/40) I know they like to rate RPGs and games like this highly, but thats still a bloody good score. And I've decided I'm buying Oblivion, but I don't have much money right now, so i'll wait till after my GCSE's at the end of June.
Owen Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 I've got FARCRY Hands on to night... if i manage to play this game instead of Oblivion >_< Cool! Getting it tomorrow hopefully! Still wrapped up in Oblivion myself but as the games are not alike it should be ok!
kyletherobot Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 i dont like oblivion too much, i cant really get into it and i dont have enough time to play it. im going to try it again later tonight and if i dont like it, i think im going to return it under my GAME 10 day rental service i think i might get GRAW instead.

Chuck Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 oblivion is my game! mint after getting bored with guild wars. u know in the mages guild, do u need to be a academy member to rank up? i no mr.ctu mason has ranked up.
CVD Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 There's some new friends list integration up on Xbox.com You can now send, accept and reject friends requests online, and you can remove friends too.

You reach Apprentice when you join the academy and do their first quest, and then you rank up everytime you complete another quest for them. So far those have been pretty fun.
rokhed00 Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 If anybody is interested the BF2 demo is now on the marketplace.
rokhed00 Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 Single or Multiplayer demo? Multiplayer, just had a quick blast on it, seems pretty good.
Guest Jordan Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 For the people who haven't played GRAW (yes all 3 of you) theres a demo out tomorrow on the marketplace. I'm getting BF2: MC now and by the looks of things its more like its PC older brother rather than the shitty console versions. Played a couple of rounds. A few problems: 1, the gun is HUGE i mean come on. 2, No medic?! Its the only class i ever used! 3, Choppers handle like ass... really big ass. 4, They removed the awesome voice overs from the PC game 5, the demo map sucks nuts. Good things: Very fast gameplay communication is essential to win fairly fun game.
DiemetriX Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Farcry plays way to much like the old xbox version. I 'm not going to keep it. Oblivion is without a doubt my fav Game. XBOX BC update: Microsoft has gone ahead and updated their site with three new games: World Soccer Winning Eleven 9, Star Wars Battlefront II , and BLACK.
1UP Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I plyaed like 3 rounds of the BF2 demo. I liked it. Pretty fun. Just some graphical issues like hte shaddowsn
Hero-of-Time Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 If anybody is interested the BF2 demo is now on the marketplace. Thanks for the heads up on downloading it now. Quick question I finally finished getting all the Achievements for Kameo and im after some new games. I m getting DOA4 and Blazing Angles but for my third game I cant decide on Call of Duty 2 and PDZ. I know PDZ is supposed to be pretty bad but my mate is getting it so we can play co-op if I pick it up and also Im a big Rare fan....little help please?

PDZ is an aqquired taste really, lots of people don't like it, but if you persevere with it and get into the Dark Ops gametypes it's a good game, very strategic though. If you're after more of an arcade blast I'd go for CoD2, especially since they patched t.
1UP Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 PDZ is an aqquired taste really. Yep, definatley, frankly I like PDZ better than COD2, the online is much better and its more fun when some of your mates come around. The storyline ain't too great, but co-op is heaps of fun. COD2 was fun, but I dunno, wasn't really my type of game, maybe I was getting too bored of all these WW2 games ...
CVD Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Right, Battlefield game tonight, 11PM. Gives you plenty of time to dowload and try it out. All welcome.
The3rdChildren Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Right, Battlefield game tonight, 11PM. Gives you plenty of time to dowload and try it out. All welcome. CVD, YOU CAN COUNT ON ME.
Matt Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 But you can't have custom matches can you? I thought it was just quick matches... Maybe I'm wrong! I'm loving the demo! It plays really well and I can see the full game taking up LOADS of my live time. It's a bit upsetting that I don't think I'll have enough time to give to these new games since I got Oblivion. I'm totally hooked.
m_fergy Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 What games are peopel gettin end ov this month march/april ?? im going to get 3 Tombraider Fifa World Cup Blazing Angels Which I think is shit 3 games to last me a while, just looking on gameplay's release canalender and the next game im gettin is Dead Rising which doesnt come out till June but i think that will get knock back a few month Proppa shit, needs to be more games coming out Very dissapointed
Guest Jordan Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I'm up for BF2 if we can get a room tonight. Also, Traffic Attack on rank 9 on Burnout Revenge is MAKING ME FUCKING PULL MY EYES OUT AND SLAMMING MY JOYPAD AT THE FLOOR. Yes its annoying.
Meik Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 But you can't have custom matches can you? I thought it was just quick matches...It's only quick matches but you can join a game that any of your friends are already playing in, only problem is anyone can join at any time.
DiemetriX Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I'm upp for battlefield tonight But i dobt we will fit in a room :/ Send me a PM if you se me online
Matt Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Picked up Farcry today! I didn't play it on PC or Xbox, so the game is totally new to me. The gameplay seems pretty nice, and the island is a fun place to have the game take place on. But, unfortunately, what sticks out is that it looks like an Xbox game! There's nothing (apart from the water) that makes the game stand out from the previous generation. I know this shouldn't matter, and it's the gameplay and story that's important - but all the textures are REALLY low-resolution and the trees and plants (of which there are lots) look frankly embarrasing. Enemys don't react when hit by bullets. All that happens is a small spurt of blood. Hmmm. But, I'm really looking forward to getting into the game, and I'm sure the multiplayer will be a blast! Another quick note - I realised today that those Samsung monitors that are on the 360 pods are rubbish! The quality is awful! Haven't played one since before I got my HD, and the quality is notibly worse. Argh. I was going to get one as well, because I thought that'd be the one to get.
