Title: I finally bought an Xdick 360
Post by: russell on February 21, 2009, 05:08:33 PM
I got one on eBay, should arrive late next week.

What games shall I pirate? I figure the CoDs, and Dead Space looks pretty cool.

I've heard CoD4 was better than World @ War, but I haven't played the latter so I wouldn't know.

Also I don't know what to suggest to you since I don't really know what genres you like.

Also also, a lot of games do have demos available so you can look into some of them when you get your 360.

get Call of Duty 4. World at war sucks
Also Dead space is pretty much just worth a rent for me. It was awesome but really short.
And Viva Pinata 2, Banjo Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts, Guitar Hero/Rock Band, Fallout 3, GTA4, and Gears of War 2 are some of my favorites

Yeah if you listed your favorite genres I could probably name the best in that catagorey

I heard the 360 version has frame rate issues at the most random of times, but I don't know if they fixed that. And console RTS isn't really worth it if your PC can play them well.

And like $2 on the PC.

And last I checked, Snorkel had a PC that could handle TF2 and HL2, so he could played Condemned with little trouble.

I merely pointed out Snorkel could save money because he has a computer that can handle it, and you get your panties in a bunch because you assume it's an attack on the system.

it's like a kid that flips desks when someone calls him gay--he's insecure spam;

Um, no, it was me merely pointing out that Snorkel could save money by buying an equal version that'll play exactly the same because he has another system that can handle it just as well.

If I ever suggest anything but the 360 version of anything, you interpret it as "360 SUCKS" and rant on for 15 pages.

Lawlz, he's pirating everything in the first place, so the price doesn't matter. doodhuh;

Anyways, seriously, stop acting like idiots and arguing over pointless shit. And Geno, stop starting shit with Lawlz.

Also, Street Fighter 4 is awesome if you're able to pirate that.

Nuts & Bolts is a good game, but it will probably be one to get used later on. Get CoD4 if you like online play. WaW is fun, but not worth the money yet in my opinion.
Orange Box is less than $20 used if you don't have it on PC yet. You can get a lot of decent games for pretty cheap when you get them used now. Mass Effect and Bad Company went down recently.

Don't ever reccomend The Orange Box for the 360  akudood;
Oh and Bad Company wasn't that great IMO.
Mass Effect was a pretty great game though

It's still a good game. It's only downside is the controls, which you have defended numerous times against Lawlz, so idk what you're trying to say.

Get mass effect, it's worth at least 2 or so playthroughs. Also, Streetfighter 4 is awesome, so you should definitely try to get it.

Just because it isn't updated as frequently as the PC version, and has slightly inferior controls, doesn't make it a bad game.
Sure, those things make it worse than the PC version, but it's still a good game.
Honestly, I never thought that I'd be having this argument with you.

It isn't updated at all.
The controls aren't a problem either. The huge problem is the lack of people playing it, lack of maps, lack of updates, and its so fucking laggy.

Uh, no. There are at least a half dozen games up at any time, and it's only laggy if it's being hosted by someone who doesn't know what high-speed internet is.

The other points though I agree with.

alright, there are two teams. one is humans, one is zombies. zombies usually start with one or two people, the rest are humans. zombies have increased speed and swords, while humans have almost no radar and a pistol. the zombies want to kill the humans, at which point the killed human becomes a zombie. you want to survive as long as possible.

as for the weekends: Bungie makes a special playlist every weekend from thurday to sunday night where you get double the experience for a win. these range from zombies to huge FFA's to only CTF. it varies.
