The Old XBOX Megathread

[Captain Eo]

I didn't have a working 360 last Christmas season unfortunately.

How did that one play out?

[King Ellis]

I think it had a tab on one of the channels and then went fullscreen rather than an actual download.

I assume the game just involes throwing a ball in order to tty and make your avatar fall into water?

So I have 800 MS points still and don't know what to purchase with them. I would prefer a xbox arcade game that is multiplayer or at least co-op. Is there any news of BF 1943 releasing new maps at all? I would spend them on that if so.

Splosion Man is the way to go. 50 single player levels, 50 entirely different multiplayer levels, and it's only 800 points.

Apparently online co-op for Splosion Man is horribly laggy, and since it's all timing-based, it's essentially impossible to play.

Actually you get to dunk your friends in water. And they don't even have to be online

I would never be able to play a game like that online anyway, would be way too frustrating dealing with someone you don't know. Definitely a local mulitplayer kind of game, which is how I played through it.

I don't play with people I don't know :/

The Secret World continues to be the Game-I-Lust-for-but-noone-else-knows for the forseeable future. Real-world mythology set on a modern era earth as an MMORPG? Get me in there now.

EA Black Box based in Vancouver has announced that SKATE 3 will release May 2010. The game will focus more than ever on online play, emphasizing co-op play and forming crews to take on rivals in a completely new place called Carverton.

Senior Producer, Jason DeLong says, "We're giving gamers a very unique experience by providing them with the tools they need to build their ultimate team or to create a team comprised entirely of their online friends. From there, it's all about proving yourself – teaming up, and throwing down."

They also promise more customization that ever before with tools to create custom graphics, record videos and create your own skate parks, which can then be played cooperatively.

Here's the European trailer for Skate 3. No more San Vanelona.

Super Elite!

[EddieRuckus]

I don't care how, but one way or another I'm getting the MW2 Xbox 360 bundle.

[RoyWill Rumble]

Captain Eo will get it for you, and get it for you early.

[Tits McGee]

I wish I had those night vision goggles as well.

[Ruki]

So, by the looks of it, I will be picking up Halo 3 (finally) for $20 tomorrow. Yay!

Who wants to do Legendary and help me find skulls?

[LL!]

Nobody!x2

And fuck Eo for having ODST already.

[Meacon Keaton]

Ah, LL. You live in Miami. You know every city has the shadey videogame store that sell games early. I stopped going to mine after almost walking in during a robbery.

[LL!]

I've never found mine.

[Captain Eo]

I've never found mine.

Having ODST is nothing to be proud of. It's money well wasted in my opinion.

Your shady store should be located in a flea market or swap shop. If you have 6 hours to spare you could always drive up here to Tampa and I'll show you the ropes.
