Hopes are high. Expectations are not.

Is the secret XBLA game going to actually come out tomorrow? Wheres the Contras and Ultimate Mortal Kombat?
I'm getting the Sonic Trailer now, so maybe it'll change my view on the topic.
Also, the FEAR demo didn't impress my too much. My main problem lies with the visual changes that occur when you turn. Halo, Battlefield and Call of Duty all stay smooth when you turn; but FEAR has the weird kind of half blur half squishy thing going on which completely ruins the mood by shoving a fake looking movement down your throat everytime you turn a corner.
For this same reason I found Quake 4 completely unplayable.
Shrek 3 is the ugliest fucking game I have ever seen.
It would have been horrible on the old Xbox. LOL @ any poor kid who gets that for christmas.
The Darkness look fucking awesome.
I know these aren't merging, but if Burg can post 20 things in a row I can update my thoughts while I watch this stuff.
I hadn't been able to watch a really good video of portal until now and I can't even describe how impressed I am.
It looks more entertaining than any game in the last forever.
Isn't that Portal trailer like 2-3 months old? Anyway, Kane and Lynch video is up, not that interesting.
Well how about that. Go try out Sonic for yourself, guys; demo is up. Microsoft must read TNL.
lols thanks Master.
LOL @ this Sonic demo.

I LOL'ed because after that long winded article, they bascially just did a pallet swap and called it a day. GO SEGA!
The Sonic demo sucks BTW.
Twitchy controls make for an average game at best. "Next Gen" Sonic my ass!
wow..that Sonic demo was awful just like every 3D Sonic game. They all stink. Terrible camera that can't keep up with the character, slow camera panning and the level just stunk. I don't think Sega will ever make a good 3D sonic game. Hey, at least it did look pretty good and was smooth. Better than nothing I guess.
Yeah, I was pretty disappointed by the Sonic demo. :(
Make a sonic 2.5 game with current hardware pls.
At least we have Smackdown to look forward to!

Assassin's Creed is coming out on the 360? I thought it was PS3 exclusive. Oh well, one less reason to buy a PS3.
Are you serious?
Chux, give us a 30 second Doom review.
For real...I was thinking about buying it myself...Quote:

Does it play smoothly though? Did they enhance it for widescreen displays? Sucks about the online shit being crappy (I'm sure they'll iron it out).
I've read that it's Doom 1 AND 2. Not so sure about Final Doom being in there (although for 10 bucks, it should).
Man, I really can't wait for TFC2 :(
Doom controls remarkably well with the 360 controller, screen size is adustable, multiplayer is solid with no lag...and it's Doom music.
Also, it's not Doom 2, but it has all 4 episodes from the original, and all the difficulty settings.
Nightmare mode 4 Player co-op = worth $10
Also, I experienced no lag.
For those who care, the Doom on XBLA is much prettier than the one that came with Doom 3 Xbox. The textures are still blocky, but no where near the Lego fest the D3 version is. And it sounds better.
So yeah, Doom on XBLA is better than the one from Doom 3.
Halo Wars? WTF IS THAT?
EDIT: Looked on Bungie and it's an RTS. Fuck that noise, I was hoping for a Halo MMO.
omfg doom omfg doom omfg doom.
This is such fucking awesome news. getting it as soon as i'm home.
So after today, 2007 is looking like:
Lost Planet
Blue Dragon
Forza 2
Alan Wake
Crackdown
Half-Life Ep. 2 & Portal
Too Human
BioShock
Virtua Tennis 3
Grand Theft Auto IV
Fable 2
Burnout 5
Halo Wars
Halo 3
Mass Effect
Assassin's Creed
Soul Calibur IV
Lost Odyssey
Shadowrun
Eternal Sonata (Trusty Bell)
Treasure Shooter (RS/Ikaruga series)
Yes, please.
Other than achievements, how's XBLA Doom compare to a PC running jDoom? If you've got one, any reason to get it again?

Ah well, pass then. Maybe I'll jump for Doom 2.
Still, if they're heading in the "old PC game" direction, maybe they can do X-Com or X-Com 2.
James
JDoom > XLA Doom
That said, it's still totally worth it. The whole pick up and play + Live thing is fantastic. Nice interface, no lag, lots of fun.
PS: Dave you asshole, download nowwwww.*passes out*Quote:

That's what I'm saying.
Also, Smackdown V Raw is on the marketplace.
Hey, any opinions on running XBL through an 802.11b wireless router? Am I going to be in lag hell, and if so will 802.11a really make a difference? Because short of running cable through 2 routers, wired just isn't an option right now.
Whoa. Wait. What? Where?Quote:

Doom is the best game on the 360.
I run mine through 802.11b, and its fine, however physical objects (such as walls) between your wireless bridge and your router will affect your connection. I have pretty shitty ADSL so its hard to say how accurate this would be regarding your connection.Quote:

A week, I think. Maybe less. Granted, they didn't actually repair mine and just sent me a fresh one so YMMV.
My friend recieved his in a week or so when he had to send his in 2 months ago...
Looks like Doom co-op is just two player... weak.
and only 4 player DM. LAME This shit should be a 64 player blast a thon.Quote:

lollin' @ 2 player co-op.
fans of the game had 32 player co-op going for years son
32 player co-op? Is there anything to shoot with that many people running around.
Boooooooooooooo!Quote:

It's 4 players co-op or deathmatch.

I just got a points card from Gamestop and will be partaking of the Doom sometime today.
Also, got the premium XBL Vision bundle (with Robotron, 200 points, a year of XBL, and Uno) so if anyone wants to see my scrotum, drop me a line.
I'm gonna use the 200 points card on my Japanese account so I can get the Wrestle Kingdom content.
I said it was 2 player only because the ad to get you to buy it said "grab a friend" there was no plural to it like there was for the DM bullet.Quote:

What do you mean? The hard drive is removable. If you send your box back to Microsoft they require only the system, and no hard drive.Quote:

This is awesome news since I was really close to picking up 4 wired for my PC, now I can just use my 4 wireless and save a shitton of money.
that's very old news, it's been announced a while back.Quote:

Totemball is retarded.

Probably wouldn't fit on a memory card anyway.
There is a new trailer from X06 for Stranglehold, why do you want the one from E3?
And the Carbon demo stinks. What an eyesore of a game, everything looks muddy and washed out nothing about it looks next gen. Looks like we can throw another NfS game on the shit pile.
Looks like Max Payne, which is good enough for me.Quote:

The X06 one isn't as good as the E3 one.Quote:

Naw, I need a memory card anyway, since I go back and forth between Orange County and San Francisco whenever breaks roll around.Quote:
