I just got hooked on Oblivion.

I bought it and had a terrible first impression of it, so much that I put it down for months and didn't pick it up again until a couple of days ago.

Well, once you start doing quests for Guilds and shit it just kinda transformed into this completely different game for me.

I just played it for six hours and now I'm getting back to it.

Fucking crack, it is.

PS: God bless my days off.

Yeah, I really enjoy Oblivion. Almost wish I had the PC version for it, for the sole purpose of downloading the Dragon Slayer mod for it.

FFXIII may or may not be exclusive. Not really shocking IMO.

Fuck Sony.

I'm putting up a challenge to anyone on this board. No body can beat me in Gears of War. And if you do you cheated.

So anyone that wants to challenge the master come forth

Proof by induction means that you cheated, else your statement becomes false.

If the only possible way for someone to beat you is by cheating, then you must be cheating yourself. You fucking Haxxing bitch.

I wonder if 360 will ever pick up in sales in Japan. I'm not saying that Japanese sales really matter on a global standard, but it would be cool to see it succeed just a bit there.


I mean it's not like PS3 has any big games released on the thing other than Tekken 5 DR and Virtua Fighter 5 (big titles for the JP). It's like Sony has a strong fanboy base. Nintendo is raping everyone there though.

If MGS4 gets released on 360 then all I'll have left is White Knight Story. If that get's released on there too... I'm selling this console for $300.

I already know that I won't like Final Fantasy XIII due to it's uninspired character design and shemales. I mean it's like that are all vegans that don't take supplements. I mean I can see if you're skinny if your main priority is casting magic. But if you're carrying around a huge weapon and doing acrobatics at the same time... I expect to see some muscle. I know it's a fad in Japan, but damnit this shit has gotten old. Every JP RPG is like this. I know alot of them play great (even though for some reason things seem like they're getting stale), but I'm basically tired of these pretty boys.

I will weep the day they created a big budget RPG with a character as big as Guts playing the lead.

I would like to see 360 do well in Japan as well. Perhaps then Cave will release ports of Ketsui and other shooter ports they have had on the back burner for it. That would be awesome.

I guess everyone knows by now that DMC4 is getting a 360 port.

Thank god for one less reason to own a PS3.

I seriously don't think that $600 for a video game console is a healthy purchase.

Xbox 360 Elite has been announced for April 29th.

Its black, has a 120 gig hardrive, hdmi port, and an hdmi cable.

I plan on picking one up, just in time for Forza Motorsport 2.

I think it's worth it if you don't own one already. Wish it would have came HD DVD ready...but then that might have bumped it up to 600.

Well if you really want it you can buy it as an add-on from what I've heard.

Am I the only one that is glad they didn't add in the HD-DVD player? I don't want the movies that I buy to be limited to what player I own and I dont want to own two different players with different movies for each one. I think most people feel the same. So I am glad MS isn't going to make me pay for an HD-DVD player that could be worthless in a year or two. I plan on waiting to see which format wins, and for stand alone players to drop down to about 200 dollars, then I will make the move to HD movies.
