360'rs - What are you playing???

bioshock 2 just started...

I also downloaded 6 arcade demos, three of them are good. Consider buying 2, it would be 23 bucks i believe.... I'll check the names and edit the post...

what hot game demos are out right now, and does anyone have a spare xbox 48 hour code they could toss my way please. There is millions floating around, 1 of you has to have one from a new game you got or online.
 
RDD is just GTA on horses. i just started it and it is beautiful.


so many games.... so little time...
 
Been playing RDD for a while. It's a little on the easy side in my opinion. Not that much to challenge you one you get used to the controls and using dead-eye.

Online's a little spartan and doesn't have enough going on to make it engaging. Disappointing that the train doesn't chug around in multiplayer (that would have been A LOT of fun).

Beautiful and technically impressive, nonetheless.
 
i hear that RDR (not RDD ;)) will be releasing a zombie DLC pack in time for Halloween. might actually grab that cause i dont think ive ever played a western/zombie game. :D
 
going to go grab castlevania today. All the reviews say the combat system is a total ripoff off GOW-- and they say that like it's a bad thing. can't wait!
 
they really need to put an autosave per hole in tiger woods... it would stop me from rage quiting... i dont care if it would make the load times worse...

im in the final round of the US Open, 2 strokes behind... and know i can smash the first few holes but keep on struggling... its driving me insane...
 
I'm afraid to say that I rage quit yesterday playing Red Dead Redemption.

I actually smashed a controller after failing FIVE TIMES to tame the last of three wild horses.

I can usually tame them first time, every time... but it just wouldn't have have it on the last horse.

^see my post in the RDR thread.

five times, is that all? i spent almost the entire virtual night on one fucking stallion.


damn, you smashed a controller? those things are expensive and the x360 ones are huge. i destroy one controller in the last 15 years, and it was a ps3 one last year. forget which game it was on.


take it from a fellow rager, you need more than bellyfire to be the next baryshnikov!
 
Yeah, I'm regretting it now. I have a spare, but I know the missus will probably want to play something and I'll have some explaining to do. Looks like a trip to the shops will be necessary. £30 down the drain.

I busted it onto the floor like an axe. :D To be fair, it held together reasonably well, but at least half of the fixing points were shattered. It's probably the second, possibly third controller I've smashed in about 10 years (the other two were PS2 pads). Funnily enough, I think I smashed those playing other Rockstar games - GTA: Vice City/San Andreas. The horse breaking is actually easy if you stick to a few simple rules, but I was getting frustrated and not paying attention.

FYI: Ignore Marston's legs, arms or anything that the guides tell you - in fact, ignore him and the horse completely. It's impossible to clearly see which direction Marston's leaning and because the camera switches so rapidly, you'll never be clear about what direction you're supposed to be pushing in.

You want to pay attention to the camera. As soon as the camera pans in one direction, push the left directional stick in the opposite direction - only ever left or right. Essentially, you're trying to keep the camera centred. That's what's (usually) worked for me... and it's got me the three prime horses and through the bulk of the irritating horse breaking missions.
 
ebay, cheaper. i had a look but my favourite ebay game/accessory seller is no more. still, better than shops f'sho.

back in the snes days i smashed controllers all the time. but those gorgeous things, perfect for street fighter as they were, could be snapped so easily. shoulda seen the ps3 one. fucker essploded. i was finding pieces around the room weeks later.
 
Been smashing out the new Medal of Honor. So far so good :) Gave up half way through campaign mode because i was dying to try out the online multilayer :P.
