I can't wait to try Halo3, I guess I'm gonna need shitloads of practice before I go online with it.
I mean, I don't want to get annihilated immediately.  :lol:

Chris, was it easy to set up your XBox live bit?
[/quote]I had a little trouble because I had the router connected straight to the 360.  I just called my cable company and they fixed it.  Setting it up was a cake walk after that.

[/quote]Yeah, you can, but you might get an error when trying to connect.

Bioshock(though it's going to PS3 over a year after I beat it), Fable 2, Gears of War 2, Ninja Gaiden 2, Saints Row, Viva Pinata, Banjo-Kazooie:Nuts & Bolts, Left 4 Dead, Dead Rising, and even Orange box was exclusive for a short time. 

Fail.

[/quote]You're a moron.  Just because they're not out yet doesn't mean they're not exclusives and we're not talking about PC games.  We're talking about PS3 to Xbox.  You still fail.  Epic fail even.

[/quote]I never really cared for Gears, but it was a big game for Microsoft.  Fable was a decent game.  I'm hoping Fable 2 will be better.  Most of the cross platform games are being built around the 360 hardware because it's just easier to build on.  I like playing on consoles more, even if the controls can be harder for first person games.  I'd rather play on a 60 inch screen while lounging on the couch than sitting on an uncomfortable chair and staring at a 20 inch screen.

Lost Odyssey was the game I bought along with Halo3. I love it!

My cable works, so I just need to set up an xbox live account.  :2smiley:

[Tarren]

I've set up my xbox live account.  PM me if you want to add me as a friend.
Chris, I have sent you a friend request.  :2smiley:

When you run a xbox live connection test check and see if you NAT is open if it says Strict you need to say open

go into your router setting and enabled the UPnP  and that should open your NAT up

It worked first time. I just plugged the lead into the xbox and the router, yippeee!

I love my xbox. It's SO easy to navigate and the arcade is great.
I saw your score on the hexagon thingy, Chris. I tried to beat you, but I had to stop to go out.  :x  :lol:

I'm loving playing Lost Odyssey. I think RPGs are great and good value for money. Waiting on Fable 2.  :2smiley:

I need to test my headset. It's a cool little thing.

Ahem, seems like I need to do a bit more gaming. Haha! I've only had my xbox for a week.

[Hayalet]

Tarren, get good warrenty (sp?), my bf's died last week, 3 red lights. 
He got it Christmas before last but his mum didn't keep proof of purchase. If you get the three red lights you get that covered up to an xbox 3 years old. Have never seen him look so paniced at the thought of not having one  :lol:

So i had to buy him a new one, (early christmas haha) because Fable 2 is out soon and he's been waiting for ever. Hes also been ranting about Dead Space, not sure when thats out. At the moment hes playing Condemmed 2.... all about the gore

I just play Lost and Beautiful Katamari  :2smiley:

Thanks for the advice missus.  :kiss3:

I can't wait for Fable 2 either. I keep looking at the clips on youtube.

I'm going to have an evening of Lost Odyssey today.  :2smiley:

[Tarren]

I love Lost Odyssey. Love it. I'm totally engrossed in the story.
I am so chuffed that I paid 20 quid for it.

[/quote]I just got a subscription to Gamefly and added Lost Odyssey as well as Infinite Undiscovery and Tales of Vesperia to my queue.  So I'll probably get those some time around December.  :lol:

Gamefly is a online video game rental site and its pretty good.I use it as well.There pretty cheap and have a great selection of games but it can be kinda hard to get new games casue there so popular.Plus you can get good deals on used games to with the money you earn for being a member plus free shipping.I've bought a couple of 360 games from them.
