  1. Just saw Indy tonight. Great fun, quite a few classic Indy moments but it was also pretty silly towards the end. Pace was a bit off at times making it feel less like the classic Indy movies but still well worth a trip to the movies.
  2. MGS, storyline and sense. Now there are three words you'd never think you'd see in the same sentence.
  3. It's actually no where near as awful as Superman. The flying takes a little getting used to but I found it quite enjoyable. It might get a bit repetitious though, but we'll have to see once the game hits what kind of missions we'll get. Nice little mini RPG element in there as well with the possibility of upgrading the armor. And Robert Downey Jr sounds on form doing the voice as well. It won't be groundbreaking by all means, but I'm pretty sure it won't be a train wreck like the Supes game.
  4. Meh... Played the Iron Man demo last night. And it was quite enjoyable.
  5. I'm going to see the Foo Fighters and Metallica this summer. It...it's going to be glorious.
  6. I most certainly can. If you're into the NFL, you need to play Madden. Superstar mode = tons of fun. The new "weapons" system adds a new dimension to the gameplay as well. Although you should be aware perhaps, that the passing game seems harder in 08 in that a shutdown corner can really dominate down the field and so you need a big play receiver or an accurate QB to make plays happen through the air. I've also found that bouncing to the outside during a running play can be harder this time around because the defense is more apt at reading plays and linebackers are very quick to break through your O line (this of course is largely down to which team you choose to play as...) or just close you down before you can get up to speed. The emphasis is very much on reading your opponent and acting accordingly. Be prepared to audible quite a bit.
  7. Gamst didn't do much but then again, Norway were really poor. Shocking pitch too really. I agree with herbergeehh though, Koumas looked good. Best player out there tonight.
  8. So they've put the European release of Rock Band back from March 6 to...Q2 - apparently some time in April at the earliest. The earliest! This was my most anticipated game of the new year. I've been dying to play this for ages and was really excited that it was only a month or so away. I'm extremely disappointed.
  9. Hell yes! My bro gave it to me for the PS2 and I loved it. Crazy, wacky Japanese game and concept but so much fun. Rolling stuff up into a ball doesn't sound like fun...but damn it, it is!
  10. With all the hype, that looks like an epic fail right there. Not that I mind, I've not been buying into it at all and won't be itching it play. BUT! All is not lost, Beautiful Katamari is out for the 360 on February 15th! Wohoo!
  11. Can't say I now exactly what you're after but you may want to keep an eye out for Empire: Total War, which looks highly promising.
  12. I'm actually most looking forward to Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway. Looks like it's slipping under a lot of people's radar but everything I've seen from it looks fantastic.
  13. About Assassins Creed? What do you want to know?
  14. To be fair to Benni, Gamst needs to learn to play the ball when others are open. Quite a few times on Sunday he tried to do things the really hard way instead of playing in his team mates. One time, he was clean through on the left with Benni in center. He could have set up Benni twice in that move but waited and waited and in the end took a shot when he was covered up. A goal won't fix his game, and he shouldn't believe that himself.
  15. Yeah, happened to me a while back. Frustrating but thankfully, Microsoft customer service was excellent and they handled everything really well. UPS picked up my broken console and delivered a new one to me about two weeks later. You hear stories about poor customer service but I had no hassle with them. And everything has been fine since.
  16. It's quite good fun Eddie, the new "weapons system" seems to be working and the game is much harder. At least it feels that way. Much tougher to get going on offense, particularly going down field against shut down corners or getting the running game going against brick wall defenders.
  17. Right...because I have other, more important things to do I have decided to use some time to make a list of upcoming games that I am interested in instead (take that research paper!). Some of them are definite buys for me, others are probable and maybes and others still are interesting at this point but might turn out to be buys. Anyone else want to chime in with their lists, feel free. Might be interesting... Release dates from tothegame.com Must haves Assassins Creed 9/11 07 Beautiful Katamari TBA Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway 16/11 07 Call of Duty 4: Modern Combat TBA GTA IV Q1 08 Medal of Honor: Airborne 6/11 07 Probable Alan Wake 8/3 08 FIFA 08 27/9 07 Guitar Hero 3: Legends of Rock Q4 07 Mass Effect 30/11 07 Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell: Conviction 16/11 07 Maybe Half Life 2: The Orange Box Q4 07 Halo 3 26/9 07 Mercenaries 2: World in Flames 29/11 07 Rock Band Q4 07 Interesting LA Noir TBA Marvel Universe Online TBA Prototype Q2 08 Robert Ludlum’s The Jason Bourne Conspiracy Q2 08 Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 30/11 07
  18. Yeah that looks way to complicated. But also, surprisingly, it looks very cool. I'm actually interested to see how this "be a pro" mode is going to work. I would totally get the game if that mode actually works. Superstar mode in Madden is brilliant, but playing different positions in NFL football is perhaps easier.
  19. Saw Fantastic Four 2: Rise of The Silver Surfer the other night. It was fun. It felt a bit unsettled though and some of the dialogue was...poor. But I enjoyed it. On the whole, the FX looked amazing. The Silver Surfer looked awesome, he was a cool character too. It had nice touches in it, like the Fantasticar. Galactus worked fine in their version, and they had nods or homages to comic book Galactus in there too. Oh and Jessica Alba looked amazingly hot. Really, really hot.
  20. Yup, I got it when I got the console a year and a bit ago and I'm still playing it (on and off) and I'm still no where near done with it. There's hours and hours of gameplay in it and that's not counting the expansion packs you can download through marketplace. I haven't even got to those yet, but I probably will. If you want something a bit different, go for it. It's a very enjoyable game.
  21. You should keep an eye out for the next Splinter Cell, currently in development. Check out a few games sites for news on it, looks very interesting indeed. I really enjoyed SC:DA, had a lot of fun with it and found it challenging enough. Decent game online too.
  22. There's bugs and unpolished animations in a demo of a game that won't be out for months yet? Surely not... I'm not getting worried about this before it's released and the reviews come in with bad results. I can't WAIT for this game, should be awesome!
  23. Dude, Terrorist Hunt mode and online play. There is tons of value in the game apart from the main story line.
