The Old XBOX Megathread

Fable 2

[RoyWill Rumble]

indeed. And Dead Space is still great. I'm tempted to rent Saints Row 2 and give it a second chance, trying to avoid how awful the vehicle handling was to play some co-op, but with work and Dead Space and Rock Band 2 hopefully being shipped soon to me, along with Fable II.

Well, fuck...

[Hailtothechimp]

Doing midnight release for Fable II tommarow... Just picked up my Rock Band 2 Speical Edition today and next week is Fallout 3... needless to say I am going to be poor as hell for the next couple of weeks.

[Your Mom]

Too many good games. I am just getting into Saints Row 2 and now Fable 2 will be here Tuesday

[Maxx]

Just Fable and Gears for me for now

[Kyle_]

I'll be getting GH:WT and CoD:WaW(and MAYBE SD! vs RAW 09). Just ordered RB2drums online the other day. That should do it for me for the rest of the year.

[EddieRuckus]

Since I'm getting my refund, I'll get GH:WT, COD: WAW, Fable 2, Fallout 3, Gears of War 2, and I think that's it as far as future titles for this holiday season.

[Cactus Drags]

Fucking staff discount. Dead Space, Far Cry 2, Fable 2, Blitz the League 2, Gears of War 2 (there's way too many sequels ), Rock Band 2, GH:WT probably, Left 4 Dead probably.

[Gongsun Zan]

Started off with Dead Space.

Over the next couple months, I plan to get:

GH:WT

Gears of War 2

Silent Hill 5

Fable 2

Fallout 3

[Hailtothechimp]

Anybody got a release date for The Last Remnant btw? I can't remember if it was due out by December or sometime next year...

[Kaney]

Plan to get Fallout 3, SD09, Lego Batman, GOW2, RB2 and possibly Fable 2.

[Ruki]

Fable 2 tomorrow! Yay!

Now I have to divide my time between that and Saints Row

[Cactus Drags]

I must be the only person who isn't really that up for Fable.

[Kaney]

I'm not all that bothered, I never played the first one but it sounds like it could be good. I know you can pick to be good or bad but that is literally everything I know about it.

[Hailtothechimp]

I loved the first Fable mostly because I could spend about 20 hours playing it and never ever touch the main story arc for it. It sounds like I could bump that up to 30 hours and never touch the main story for this one...

Plus the scenes where you over look Bowerstone Lake look absolutely orgasimic and OXM gave it 9.5 out of 10. Can't be all that bad.

[Cactus Drags]

Yeah, I hate those games where you have to do the main story. Fuck stories in games

At Ellis' request, I shall post about NXE. We had some MS rep come in the other day showing us what the new dashboard will look like. It looks kind of cool, but I dunno if it's just the rep having a hard-on for them or what, but the avatars are way too focused on. They just sat there staring at you, it's bloody irritating. The actual blades look pretty slick though, less cluttered than the present version. But yeah, I'm concerned about the whole Avatars thing.

[Ruki]

But what about 1 vs 100!?

[Cactus Drags]

Didn't see it. I have a sneaking suspicion that and the film stuff will be American only. Obviously because of Netflix not being over here, but I was hoping for a similar tie-in with LoveFilm or something.

[Maxx]

Well I figure say I host a Netflix session, you'll be able to watch, as you don't have to have a subscription to Netflix to watch them with other people, at least I think you don't.

We can have EWB Movie Nights ^-^

[Ruki]

...no.
