Not true, we had some good GoW-nights with N-E people two weeks ago...

Yeah I know, I took part. But generally they don't seem to happen. We should arrange it well from now on rather than just say like "Gears on thursday night folks?"

I may get it then, even if I never play it on hard.

 

Download Frets on Fire for the PC and have a play around with it (it's free btw). It's essentially the same game as guitar hero but with keyboard control which makes it harder i guess. I really enjoy it so that's why I'm getting guitar hero, even if i never get up to the hard levels.

The thing is these N-E nights and stuff just never seem to happen after all the 'yeah i'm up for it' etc.

 

Mmm I want Eternal Sonata and Blue Dragon so damn much

 

Know what you mean, but just putting it out there. maybe people will be on.

Can anyone give me impressions on Dead or Alive 4? I'm gonna get that or maybe GRAW. GRAW looks great, I just feel I will fail completely at it, I'm not so hot at tactics, I can understand use of cover, but past that I just end up running in and shooting shit, hence why I feel GRAW might not be for me. Whats the learning curve like, is it really punishing?

 

As for DoA4, is it a good multiplayer game, decent story mode etc. Better than Tekken or Soul Calibur?

It's a decent fighting game, not as good as Tekken or Soul Calibur, but still good. REEEEEEEAAAAALLLLYYYY crap boss fighter though. Online is decent as well, but there is lag.

Good stuff. GRAW confirmed then. Probably Oblivion with it, although right now, I would rather have a multiplayer title than a lengthy RPG. I'll decide when I go down to GAME next week.

 

Thanks m8s for the reccomendations. While I'm asking for this forums services, can any hunt me a cheap copy of Max Payne 2 or Doom 3 for the Xbox?

Also the "shooting the wheels out of 20 gang cars in 60 seconds" sub-achievement??

 

Thanks!

For the first one, join a co-op game (preferably me as I need that achievement too!) and have the other guy pick up the car you're in and throw it in the air (4 star strength helps a lot). Then do as many spins as you can until you land then get the other guy to throw you again and repeat.

 

The second achievement is best done by doing a boss timed level that has lots of cars in his lair (can't remember a good one right now) and just lock on to the cars and aim at the wheels but moving the stick down. repeat till you get it.

I dont know the first one, but the second, the boss location where its a kinda dirt track. It's like an oblong building.

THe top part on the right of the far right purple dot.

Anyway, theres 5 cars in there. Line them up in a row like they would be behind each other in a queue, front of one to the back of another.

Then you just aim at them, press down on the right stick to aim at the tyres, if you have a machine gun out then holding it down to shoot more than one bullet will shoot out both the tyres. Just go along.

I did it fine. Seemed like it took more than a minute but it worked.

Cool, thanks! If you have 4 star driving couldn't you just use the jumping suspension thing to the same effect??

And for the second one, are there enough cars on that level (I think you are talking about the Los Muertos car arena level) to get the achievement?

Thaks for the help again!: peace:

EDIT: Second question has been answered! THANKS!!

 

 

Also another general question, does anyone get serious lag in co-op? Half the time it is fine but half the time it's really annoying!:(

I was really excited about Crackdown the first couple of hours I was playing it, but now I don't care at all about going back to it.

 

Loving Virtua Tennis still though. Won my first few Rank 100 tournaments, coming back from 3-1 down 30-40 final game to win 4-3 with me and Sharapova. Best game I've played this year so far.

Maybe we could have a dedicated game arranger. And essentially we have a weekend night either saturday or sunday and assign a game to it. Say gears the first weekend, pgr3 the second etc. Then have a calendar set up, so people can follow and instead of saying "i'm up for it" you get on live at the dedicated time and the game arranger then adds people into the game.

 

How does that sound?
