I like RPG's every now and then, but not the WoW and FF ones. I'm more into like Oblivion and Zelda, more of the action RPG's. I can't stand games where you pick an attack, it does x amount of damage, you get hit taking x amount of damage, and then it goes back and forth. I like a little more real time action then that. Just my opinion though.

Give me a racing game or a shooter anyday. I've been obsessed with NFS: Carbon for the past week and can't wait for Gears of War.

:withstupid:

The last and only FF I bought was FF7 and after playing it for about 30min I didn't like it at all and never really played it again. I guess it takes too much patience or just doesn't feel like a game to me enough to make me wanna play it for hours. I dunno... I'm more of a driving like NFS or Burnout type gamer myself but anymore I hardly play anything haha. My XBOX even broke moving it from one side of the room to the other side and I didn't drop it or anything, just gently moved it haha.

Probably... it shows error code 21 so...
21 - anywhere - This error says that the machine was booted to display a error, basically someone told the machine to reboot (or launch a xbe) with this flag, and the error code just means its been rebooted by the flag
Probably MS sending a signal over live to tell it to fry itself... ugh.

Offtopic:

Are you runnin' the Nyko intercooler Silver Es?
I am, and I have heard mixed feelings about it...

Oh yeah Gears of War ships out tomorrow! I pre-ordered THPS:8 instead. The demo is simply amazing, its available on the Live Marketplace.

You should hit up with electricbluesxt and me on the weekends. We had a good time playing G.R.A.W.

Nope, no intercooler thing for me. Everything I've read is that it really doesn't do too much.

I'm a little iffy on the Tony Hawk games, I used to really like them but the last one turned me off to them.

I went looking for GoW today because according to some forums some Best Buys are already selling. I had no luck but supposedly I should be able to get it tomorrow. I can't wait.

Yes! I heard about that too... some dude went to Best Buy and talked to someone who had no clue about video games. Asked for Gears of War and it wasn't on the shelf of course, so checked the back... and sure enough got a copy! :lol:

Yeah the last TH installments were just repeats with a couple extra things... But when I played the demo it brought me back into it again...Just d/l the demo and play it!!! Nail the Trick is amazing!

It actually lowers the temp a bit... http://www.nyko.com/nyko/products/?i=71

I just don't like the fact its plugged through the main port.... Check this out... http://forum.xbox365.com/ubb/ultimatebb ... 6/t/005198

Oh yeah! Did you hear they are going to offer tv shows and movies to d/l through the marketplace? :headbang:

Ohh nerrr Tony hawk Pro Skater.
Next up will come the excuse that having your TV on at the same time will also fry your XBOX 360 because that puts too much of a strain on the first industrial boot up simplex 10 conductor, because it needs that power to put money in Gates' left pocket.
Haha.

I'll get into a NCAA 2002-7 and a NFL Blitz.
Fable was a really good RPG
