Re: Anyone played Dead Island for Xbox 360?

Sorry it’s nothing like Skyrim. Bit late as you have already bought it but well … it doesn’t live up to the hype. The story is rubbish, the side missions are mind numbingly awful, combat isn’t very satisfying and it just turns into a big slow zombie grind. The beach section is the best – its gets wo...

Re: Battlefield3 thread....

Going to get a second hand copy of BFBC2 and go back to that.

BF3 has changed the game for the worse as they have tried to mimic COD to make the game accessible for the COD hardcore and ultimately increase market share. Gameplay has really suffered.

The game is simply not as fun as BFBC2.

Re: ASSASSIN'S CREED III.....

AC1 - Rubbish and tedious game play. AC2 - Perfect. Complete gem of a game - one of the best games I played in 2010 by a country mile. Charater Development, great story, real progression, nicley paced! AC2B - Hold on ... havent I already played this, oh yeah I forgot, I have! Like AC2 but without th...

Re: XBOX 360 & 3D?

Is the 3d any good on th games - does it make a dig difference to the graphical depth of the game. Have to admit the last time I watched anything 3d I was 8 - dont know how well things have come on in the following 22 years!

Re: Best gaming headset with mic for PS3?

Have a look at the Sharkoon Xtatic – I have them and they are awesome. Produced by the company that make the Trittons, and essentially the same unit just look different. Sound quality is superb, crystal clear and you pick up so much sound that is lost when using a TV. I was playing BF3 last night an...

Re: Battlefield3 thread....

Good god the single player campaign is dire. I have forced myself to play it and on both occasions switched off through complete boredom. I know BF3 is about the MP but they still have to put some effort in. BFBC1&2 were miles ahead in terms of SP campaign. Actually the MP was also better too!

Re: Battlefield3 thread....

Anyone finding things slow to rank up? Got all these extra unlocks but I just want a gun with a decent scope! Even more irritating when you level up in one class it isnt mirrored for the other team. So you need to grind away trying to get a usable gun again in the same class. 10x more unlocks - isnt...

Re: GTA V announced!

Been playing San An for a while now on the 360 - trying to pick up a copy of GTA3 and Vice City for the orginal Xbox so I can relive the memories. Keep getting out bid - darn it!

Anyone got a copy they want to sell?

Considering the rockstar marketing wagon is going to be late 2012 at the very earliest. They will use 2012 to whip people into a frenzy and then release in Oct / Nov at the very earliest. It would be nice if it came out in Jan, but as its the first anyone has heard of the game its just not going to ...

I hope they go back to the days of san andreas with fully stupid game play. I want to sky jack a plane, do mega jumps in a golf kart and laugh and the stupid shop names, innuendo and funny radio stations. GTA4 was ok but thin on the stupid fun as it was going for realism. IMHO Saints row 2 was way m...

Aw11 tuned to A class is rapid – drop the gearing right down and it absolutely rips – currently doing a few more tweaks to calm it down a bit and also trying to get some more grip coming out of the bends. The thing corners like a house fly. Our lass got me forza yesterday. Was surprised when I put i...

Re: The best game intro ever!.....

Really weird - the game got hammered on the early reviews, which came out a day or so before the offical release. Subsequently the reviews have been amended and are significantly higher. News is that a developer copy was accidentally released onto steam and not the finished game - hence the intial c...

Re: Xbox 360 Swap Shop

Yeah what happened to this - swapped many a good game with guys on here. Seems pointless trading in and getting a fraction for it when you can swap for something else. Anyone interested in the following - happy to swap for all sorts, not fussy, unless I have played it or already have it. Games are b...

This means, no tyre wear and being able to drift at 20mph, so really good for learning technique. This was just as well as clearly I had a lot to learn. Whilst I was of the belief that I could hold a car sideways pretty well on track, this was a whole new kind of sideways. The trick is letting go -...
