That Guy Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I can get new shenmue 2 for £16 if anyone is interested.and for £11 if we buy 3. I may be interested in that deal.
Mr. Bananagrabber Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I may be interested in that deal. Off topic, but whats with that other That Guy on the forum
rokhed00 Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I've just thought, because it's released so close to Christmas I won't be able to get Star Trek Legacy unless I buy it from a shop, and then it'll end up costing me more. Damn, I was really looking forward to getting it before Christmas.
BeerMonkey Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 ive owned ghost recon for 3 months and last night i had my first multiplayer on it...i wish i had LONG ago now as the multi on ghost recon is ACE had a good laugh. Started a new go (was only on mission 3) i hadnt played it since october because i brought kameo and just stopped playing gah
Stocka Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 Awesome news about Shenmue II. I'll most likely buy it then, as I never had an Xbox. Although I have it on Dreamcast I want it just to see what it's like with the english voice acting + because it's Shenmue so I MUST.

Climhazzard Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 u dont know what shenmue is?????????? is that even allowed??????
DiemetriX Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 u dont know what shenmue is?????????? is that even allowed?????? We are thinking about banning Fatrox. He should know what shenmue is :P /jk.
Jon Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 BTW, Shenmue II on the box of X has by far the worst controls in gaming history, but 'spose if your a big fan you'll get over them (I did)
KKOB Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 i've never played Shenme or had any inkling to, it looks like a videogame novel with QTEs and minigames.
Hero-of-Time Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 i've never played Shenme or had any inkling to, it looks like a videogame novel with QTEs and minigames. You really should play them ( well at least the 1st I still havent played 2nd ) Its an epic story which instantly draws you in, it is a marmite game though you either love it to bits or hate it to the core. http://www.achieve360points.com/game/startreklegacy/ Star Trek Achievements, I especially like number 34 and 35
theguyfromspark Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 The PC version of Star Trek is getting generally poo reviews, 58% average over at gamerankings. Is the X260 version any different? I'm definately not getting it but some people on this forum seem to be excited about it so I'm hoping it'll be better for their sakes!

I'm definately not getting it but some people on this forum seem to be excited about it so I'm hoping it'll be better for their sakes! Yeah, I read a couple of reviews on Gamefaqs and it got really bashed which is a shame as I was looking forward to playing a good ST game. Also Lost Planet gets patched before release. Lost Planet may not be out until 12th January, but Capcom's already setting admirable precedents for its first major online multiplayer game on Xbox 360. Having released single- and multiplayer demos earlier this year, the developer has since been in touch to explain its plans to incorporate fan feedback into the full game. "Capcom has been reading boards, emails and blogs, collecting thoughts and ideas directly from the growing community," the team explained in a statement. Many of these changes will focus on issues with the lobby and matchmaking systems, which came in for criticism based on the demo. Some changes were already anticipated by the dev team, Capcom says, but others "have come straight from the hundreds of thousands of people playing the multiplayer demo". A patch will be readied for release at the same time as the game comes out in Europe and North America, 12th January, and should automatically download when you log on to Xbox Live. The following is a list of key changes to the lobby and matchmaking systems you can expect compared to the multiplayer demo: Private slots can be set by host Invite friends to a match Number of players in a room will be displayed next to name of the room Players will not be kicked all the way out to the main menu if they try to join a full game New button allows players to refresh the match list without going out to the main menu and selecting Quick Match again Players will now go to a post-game lobby at the end of a match, not kicked back to the main menu The ability to replay a match with the same group without leaving the post-game lobby Cycling maps on replayed matches when map selection is set to Random Text size on the team selection screen will be greatly increased when using non-HD resolutions When manual team selection is set to ON, players will have 20 seconds to form teams The time limit on each match will be maxed out at 60 minutes, instead of the current unlimited time A player’s custom match criteria will now be saved Nice to see Capcom taking an interest and listening to the people. Also just snapped up Shenmue 2 for £10 so Im all ready for when the BC update is out.
theguyfromspark Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Anyone tried Assault Heroes yet? I downloaded it this morning before work and had a quick play. I finished the first level and unlocked half the achievements! Admittedly, the other half may take some work but I really enjoyed playing it. If anyone picks it up I'll do a bit of co-op with them anytime.

I'm definately not getting it but some people on this forum seem to be excited about it so I'm hoping it'll be better for their sakes! Yes. The critisism of the PC version is its controls. The 360 version plays fine and is getting 7s and 8s.
