I think I'm almost done with the single player story mode....I'm like 3 levels into the Dam.
So far...the part that took me the longest to get past was where your teammate must download the terrorist hub inside of Dante's theatre. You have to protect your teammate...protect the computer hub...and fight off a barrage of baddies fastroping in and coming from the theatre seats. Took me a long time to beat it...until I tried a certain strategy. Hint: smoke grenades are your friends.

Yeah...I set-up with the sniper...told Jun to go to the computer...and then instantly scoped in on the garage door. Got the first two before they even made it outside. Then I got the rest as they came around the corner at the end of the walkway.

MLB 2K7 is officially my new favorite baseball game of all time
I downloaded the demo and really liked it, especially since baseball games became 'complicated.' It's been a long time since I enjoyed a baseball videogame.
It took me a little bit to get the swing timing down, but I did end up hitting an opposite field homerun (with regular swing) in the 3 inning demo. Pitching was neat, fielding was a little touchy (weird center field sluggishness - but it was a demo) - no problems on the infield, though.
I'm tempted to get it (saving a giftcard next week for GRAW 2), but will probably rent it first before I make my final decision.
Even the crowd was great. I was also surprised to see some 'real' ads in the stadiums. Pretty cool detail.
Oh yeah, I rented the new NBA street game and only won a single match - that whole 2,3,4, point dunk crap really pissed me off. I was up 20-17 and 20-18 two different times and lost because of uber-dunks. Lame. What the hell was up with the Herbie Han**** breakdancing crap? That was just odd.
The game was beautiful, though. Really nice graphics.

After Oaktown, Chugga, POR2GEE & I finished the co-op campaign, I had warned them that the ending to the single player campaign would be....disappointing....to them, and I feel that's a bit understating it. You, can, however, finish the game 2 different ways.

You too, eh, Chugga? I haven't played since Monday, but the last time I shut down Crackdown for the night, I was sitting at 481, and it's becoming increasingly difficult to find the orbs I've missed. Of course, I've left the entire Shai-Gen & 1 Volk alive intentionally (So I could continue to grab Achievements), so I'm sure some of them are near the boss characters.

Double dunks are a major part of the game. If you can't do them, you won't win. Try playing on easy or medium until you get the timing down. During your gamebreaker, you can even do triple dunks. The breakdancing stuff was just for use during your gamebreaker. It had to look more stylish than a regular dribble move or what's the point? If you make "handles" your master skill in Homecourt Challenge, you can do those breakdancing moves without a gamebreaker.

I did a couple of them, and thought it was neat. I'm pretty lenient when it comes to suspension of disbelief (See: Crackdown ), but that was too ridiculous. I understand there needs to be a gimmick in the game, but that was a bit much for my taste. The game had terriffic graphics, though. I much prefer watching live basketball than playing it on a console. I got the timing down pretty decent from 'downtown,' if you will. They'd do their multi-point dunks and I'd get the ball, pull up short, and nail a 3, I mean, 2.

That would be one of my only problems with NBA Street. It relies almost completely on double dunks. You can hardly ever shoot 2 pointers unless you're on a fast break. Also, your teammates are complete idiots. They don't play defense at all (except for blocks). You have to manually switch to the defender and do all the work. It's funny because the computer doesn't have any problem whatsoever with stupid teammates.
For any achievement hounds, NBA Street is an easy 800+ pts. The only part you should have any trouble with is beating 10 people in a row online.

That got old real fast. I was able to get plenty of kills, but I might as well play Halo if that's all everybody is going to do. The Lancer used to solve that problem until they nerfed it in a patch.

i really don't care either way cuz to me if it's in the game then it's fair game (with the exception of using glitches in the online that is cheap and annoying)
i don't get the difference between the peeps who ***** about the chainsaw but have no issue with using the shotgun. to me its the same thing both allow for easy kills. well unless you get the shotgun with no bullets like i did last night. oh well thats virtual life right?

It's like this in too many online games. Games just become mad rushes for the best weapon, and the game becomes who has the best connection/best weapon rather then who has the best skill.
All shooting games need to look at FEAR as to how to properly balance weapons. The weapons in that game NEVER get useless - you can use the pistol the whole way through, and easily beat the game. In Halo, if I'm dual weilding an SMG and a plasma pistol, I'm basically screwed next to the energy sword user. In Gears, Shotgun + no lag = god.
It's a shame, really - most online shooters are so close to being correctly balanced, but always end up falling short. I'd prefer the counterstrike/rainbow six method of shooters rather then the rush for the best weapon type games any day of the week.
Cheating is a whole different story, but as long as that isn't present, evenly balanced weapons are vitally important.
I'm hoping the upcoming shadowrun is as balanced as they say it is, it looks like a fantastic online shooter.

I'm not one to complain about any tactics, but I just wish the lancer wasn't useless anymore. Without active reload, you might as well be holding a watergun (with chainsaw attachment:D ). I have no proof, but I'm pretty sure they powered the lancer down with one of the patches.

Playing with random people is just too much. Seems like everyone is a wanna-be rapper. If I get lucky and actually kill someone, then the method I used is "weak." Or my personal favorite, the host with 30 kills (all with a shotgun) screaming how great he is.
I have noticed a pattern of hosts actually killing the game or booting me if by chance they aren't winning. We were in escalation, and pretty much getting owned. I slipped down the right side while they were on the left, grabbed a sniper and popped off 3 head shots. literally 10 seconds after I popped the hosts melon my connection to the host was mysteriously dropped.

Hey guys - I was just at Best Buy and took my memory card in and plugged it in the 360 display. I didn't know until recently that you can get 'bonus content' if you plug your memory card into a 360 kiosk, so I thought what the hell...
Anyway, I'm not at home so I can't see if anything downloaded onto the memory stick yet - also, there was no visual confirmation on the kiosk screen that said, "hey jackass, you've got some free content on your memory stick. Thanks for nothing." Is this normal?
I even perused through the blades and couldn't see anything to start a download, etcetera.
Has anyone done this before or had a problem? LMK!

If Def Jam: Icon wasn't about 3-4 steps back from Fight for New York, I would consider it.

Otherwise, no way in hell. I'll stick with Vendetta and Fight for New York. At least then I can still have 4 player battle royales.

I might rent it, but the decision to get rid of the AKI engine is a costly one. They've lost many people who bought the game just because of that. That was the only reason I bought the game. I could care less about two rappers beating each other up. Bottom line, the game was fun. Unless the gameplay is vastly different from the demo, I can't see myself wasting $60.

Hey Cory if you want to beat Crackdown tonight give me a call on my cell phone. I found a gamestop gift card in the back of my wallet and decided to get something new but not for the 360. So I'll be online, just not on the 360.

Well I just beat Crackdown. And I have to say this was been one of the most fun games I have played in a long time. And the best part is I still have achievements to unlock. Now to the ending without giving anything away, I kind of figured "that" was going to happen. But definitly a cool ending nonetheless. To me, Crackdown has lived up to the hype I tried to create in here. If you are on the fence about picking it up and think its just an extra game that comes with a Halo 3 beta/demo you're mistaken. This is a fun ass game the only times I have stopped playing it is to eat, sleep, work, and spend a little time with my gf(She actually shut the 360 off on me once!). I am not going to grade it out of 10 or anything like that.. But seriously I think everyone should give this game a chance. If not buy it, rent it, I am sure you will be hooked. :D
*In no ways do I work for the creators of Crackdown, Realtime Worlds, Microsofts or anyone who help make this game.* :D :p ;) :)

I might rent it, but the decision to get rid of the AKI engine is a costly one. They've lost many people who bought the game just because of that.
They surely lost me because of it. I wanted to continue to salvage playing the AKI engine, other than playing the old WCW vs nWo/WM2000/No Mercy games. Alas, those are better games, anyway! :D

I still play Def Jam Vendetta just because it is the most updated version of the engine. I could care less about the rappers, but the engine was so great. It's a shame. I've been anticipating Icon for over a year and I haven't seen anything to justify my $60. I really wanted to buy it. You should give Virtual Pro Wrestling 2 a chance. It's really easy to mod your N64. It just requires one small gamebit screwdriver that costs about $8. It took me about 10 minutes.
someguy, I'm sorry I missed you last night. I logged on at 12:00 (central ) and stayed on until 12:40. All I saw was avsfan21 and XSsoCX playing Gears of War. The prospects didn't look good for getting a game going so I went to bed. I did get in one 13 round game of "Who has the better shotgun?".:D

yeah i had a couple of those matches. i really pissed this one guy off because i was trying to finish my tagging achivement and i tagged the same dude 3 times and i really wasn't trying to. he got really mad when i downed him with the pistol and then tagged him. he then proceeded to quit the match so who ever you are thanks i got the achivement.

Part of Gamepro review for Def Jam Icon:
Unfortunately, the innovative enviornments of Icon can't completely hide the kiddy-pool depth of the fighting system. There are six fighting unique fighting styles unlockable over the course of the eight hour "Build a Label" story mode, ranging from the straightforward knuckle-dusting of Ghetto Blaster to the Capoeira-inspired dance kicks of Jah Breaka, but every fight still follows the predictable pattern of behaivor: punch, punch, grab, throw, scratch, repeat.
They gave the game a 4/5 and said that it's still fun, but I would rather have a better fighting system than some "bling bling" and other accessories to dress my fighter in.

Finally tried COD3 last night since I've had it for over 4 months now. Visually....it might be the best looking game I've seen on the 360. Gameplay.....it's impossible. If you think you are a badazz "first person shooter" player....I invite you to try COD 3.
Wayyyyy too much going on at once. Although...at first it was kinda cool. Everything is confusing...you're being shot from every which way. Constantly being knocked to the ground from explosions. Losing sight...yours ears ringing. Kinda gave you the feeling of what being in a huge battle would be like. But man....it never lets up. Like chugga said...it's basically COD2 on crack. While it gives you the nervousness and heart pounding of non-stop action all the time...I could have done without the "amped up to crackhead level" gameplay. If you are into challenging games......this is the one you've been looking for. Just pop it in....set it to difficult, or veteran if you're insane....and spend the next five months trying to get through the single player campaign.
PrimeBane
03-02-2007, 11:05 AM
You totally summed up my feelings about COD3... looks great, but its frustrating with everything going on.

Yeah...is that where you're going after the jeep. If so...I made it a few levels past that. I'm playing it on the default setting though...no way in hell did I bump it up to difficult or veteran. I'm having a hard enough time as it is on the default setting.
When you get to the part where you hop into the little raft and cross the river.....stop rowing for a second and just look around....it seriously is one of the best visuals I've ever seen in a video game...the graphics are simply stunning.
I think the developers just overthought themselves on this one. The last one had a perfect blend of craziness/calmness. This one is full throttle the entire time, with enemies coming out of nowhere to shoot you. And I'd take the chainsaw kill over the "melee struggle" kill anyday ;)
PrimeBane
03-02-2007, 11:21 AM
It could be... it wasn't far into the game when you parachute in and meet the resistance. I'd just snuck up behind the 2nd German soldier, knocked him out and the alarms went off.
After 10-15 tries I tossed Gears back in.
anybody have any problems with mlb2k7 freezing up?
i had major issues at first... then I didn't... then yesterday it was absolutely unbearable. I took my copy back to EB and exchanged it for another but hadn't had a chance to see if this one's any better.

I rented COD3 awhile ago and I also agree with oaktown. Looked amazing but very frenzied.
And from the believe it or not file:
I played a best of 10 match of gears last night. It was on gridlock, but there was NO RUSH to the weapons. Thats right, I said no rush. There was actual strategy and planning by both squads. I almost fell out of my chair in round 1 when I crested the sniper tower stairs and there was no one to shoot at.
i'm thinking about trading in my Gears CE copy or selling it... anyone care to talk me out of it? I would maybe keep it if we were planning anymore boardie romps, but outside of that I seem to play R6V or MLB 2K7 and Gears seems to be a third option for me

You download the movies off of the marketplace...just like you do with games and demos. However...the movies only stay for a certain period of time...basically like renting it.
To make a custom character face in R6V, you need the 360 camera.

I agree that the COD series can be crazy frustrating (especially on Veteran), but COD3 can be beaten on normal level.
As for it being the best looking, I think Gears has it beaten.
i'm thinking about trading in my Gears CE copy or selling it... anyone care to talk me out of it?
I can't say that I can, man. I've tossed the idea of selling mine around, as well. I just haven't done so, yet. :)

Very true. Believe me, I want to get back to playing it, but once I get Crackdown & NBA Street's "newness" worn off (Where I don't feel obligated to play all the time), I want to get back to focusing on Oblivion again, as well as R6.
I'm not sure when that DL content is out. More importantly, I want to know how much it is going to cost to buy it.
avsfan21
03-02-2007, 02:27 PM
Well I picked up PGR 3 today. With my luck I will get crackdown tomorrow so that I wont get to play it too much.
Also about selling Gears. I believe that Gears is kind of the fall back game for everyone. There is a time where most likely we will get games going again. Once everyone beats crackdown and such.
Chugga
03-02-2007, 02:41 PM
I don't know if GOW will ever really flourish ever again. It really turned into a shotgun fest the last couple of times I played it. And while I'm never really against using whatever weapon is best for you, when it comes to the awful latency issues there are with Gears of War it just makes the shotgun a very frustrating weapon.
I'm not saying I'll never play Gears again, of course I'm up for a game. But theres a pretty steady stream of games on their way....Def Jam, Motorstorm, then by time you get tired with those the Oblivion expansion comes out and thats 20-30 extra hours....then Guitar Hero is out right after that. At least thats for me personally...I bet other people are there are likely moving onto MLB, Ghost Recon, etc
PrimeBane
03-02-2007, 03:19 PM
Well, we can customize weapons with Gears right? Maybe we should start playing with just the Locust gun (no shotgun or lancer).
Chugga
03-02-2007, 03:30 PM
That locust gun is actually pretty damn nice. I think thats a brilliant suggestion. I'm kinda tired of seeing the game turn into circle-strafing shotgun battles. The downside is if you take away the shotgun then chainsawing becomes a bit easier.

Didnt take long for that too end. I could actually feel myself becoming dumber and dumber as a I played.
Bullet Witch
Good:
Concept: Having a witch that castspells along with a huge ass rifle looking machine gun is just plain awesome
Spells; Im sure they get better, but you start out with Ancient Wall, that creates some cover for you to shoot around. and Willpower, mostly like TK. You can shove objects into the enemies to cause damage. And a one-hit kill lightening strike, more on that below
Story: Set in 2013, it sets the back story, and seems like it has some decent ideas
Artistic design: Some very creepy Silent Hill-ish ideas for enemy design. In 2009 there is a homicidal virus released that kills 820,000,000 people world wide. Alot of military looking bodies, with skulls for faces, while wearing the human face and neck around their neck like a badge of honor. Also, a brain about the size of a buick, with a normal size human body dangling from the bottom of it, in the air, creating barriers.
Bad: (boy, where to start)
shooting: no targeting system. when you fire at enemies, they stagger backwards, so its hard to keep a bead on them.
map: as in, there is none. As in, you have no idea where you are going, nor how to get there. you just randomly find a back alley around the barrier, to shoot the flying mind out of the sky, to knock down the barrier.
Spells: as unique as the conept is, it is almost impossible to pull them off with regularity. you have to smack the bumper buttons to bring up the menu, while still staying in fight mode. supposedly, holding down the bumper brings up different levels of spells (willpower and ancient wall on one level, while the lightening strike is in another level). However, after dying multiple times trying to bring up the second level of spells, i came to realize you dont hold down the bumper, you just tap it again.
civilians; when civilians are knocked down, you can use the spell, sacrafice, to save them. However, there doesnt seem to be a reward for saving them, as well as no penalty for letting them die.
This game was HORRIBLE. Which sucks, because the Final Fantasy-ish video it opens with shows such great promise.
not worth a purchase. not worth a rental, and not even worth a free rental. I actually am thinking of going back to blockbuster and swapping it out with Marvel UA. hell, I might even get PDZ, it was that bad

Anyone planning on picking up UEFA: Champions League when it comes out on March 23rd? I'm hoping for a demo sometime soon.
Winning Eleven is hard as hell - in like 10 matches I have 1 goal. But man, did it feel awesome scoring that goal...
I really love the Winning Eleven engine, but the lack of lisenses really does bother me.

Finally beat Oblivion again, including the Knights of the Nine quest I clocked in at 119 hours. Man, finally I can move on to something else until Shivering Isles comes out.
For anyone wondering, the Knights of the Nine quest only took about 6 hours, and that was with exploring a few caves and closing 2 oblivion gates in the mix, as well. Not exactly the 10-12 hours they claim. A good storyline, nonetheless, and I was at level 49 when I gave it a go.

Something cool for those on XBLA.....
First ever HD South Park episode for free on Xbox Live Marketplace Tuesday...
http://www.gametab.com/news/833543/
This coming Tuesday is a big day for people that are both fans of South Park and Xbox 360 owners. Comedy Central is releasing the first ever high definition episode of South Park on the Xbox Live Marketplace to all members (we're assuming this means Silver and Gold) for free. That's right, everyone's favorite word -- free. It will be on Marketplace at that low, low, price of free for two weeks, and will also be available as a free HD-DVD to people buying a new Xbox 360 console or the HD-DVD add-on drive at Best Buy from March 20th through April 3rd.
Edit: It's the "Good Times with Weapons" episode. A great one, although I was hoping for the World of Warcraft one.
Nice that it's free....although I wonder how much better a 2-D cartoon is going to look in HD.

hrmmm...I was wondering the exact same thing. It's almost ironic that they would even care to put it out on an HD format given the type of animation they decided to use on this show to begin with. Oh well....can't beat "free". I'll probably DL it just for the heck of it.

Is there anything good coming out soon? The only reason I ask is because I just came into some extra money and I'm afraid that I might buy Def Jam: Icon in a moment of weakness. There has to be something better out there.
P.S. I hate Tom Clancy and all of his games.

I imagine that's why they chose the episode they did, since not all of it is in the traditional South Park style.
As far as anything good coming out soon, this month is pretty weak. The Oblivion expansion is coming out, but that's about the only thing I'm interested in.

I got mine over the weekend, too---Just keep looking. Look near the bosses (Since you had to keep moving to avoid rockets, especially in Shai-Gen territory), and revisit buildings you already hit up before (Especially ones you couldn't reach the tops of before because of your agility, and because you were dodging rockets in Shai-Gen territory).
