Selected Multiplayer, Joined a Race, Had 3 Races No lag or anomaly's Picked up my 10g for Club racer, came 3rd but then the Dude that I was racing with left & the other guys on there were just to good for me, On start with the Hot Dudes I stayed in sight of them for maybe a lap or 2 before I made a mistake & they pulled away, Racing alone is No fun.
I may as well have been on my PC for how easy it was though, Completly seemless & that is wireless an all.
Think maybe you should give online another go Davey, Maybe you got all the luck & it was Bad.

Spent a good bit of time yesterday playing Tiger Woods 09 after a while away from it. Only 3 tournaments away from completing the first PGA season, and winning all 3 will give me a clean sweep of every competition. After that I'll be throwing myself fully into the Tiger Challenge mode.

Managed to get my hands on the Fight Night Round 4 demo this weekend. It's a lot quicker than FN3, and the total punch control system has been revamped a bit, making body punching easier to do and harder to spot coming at you. Haymakers are much less important here, instead proper dodging/blocking and countering is the way to go, as haymakers are too slow to connect most of the time. The career mode in this sounds good so I'm looking forward to it even more now.

I finished off Tomb Raider Underworld over the weekend. It was good fun, nothing overly new for Tomb Raider but I enjoyed it. Probably finish off a few more achievements then sell it on.

Still got Broken Steel waiting for me, and also bought the two Fable 2 DLCs. Quite enjoying DLC at the moment, it's making old games more interesting as it should

I'm quite tempted by the two Fable DLCs, if only so I can have 100% completion on the game again. Need to rent it though as I sold it just after finishing it.

I did actually finish Broken Steel this weekend. Decent enough story, plenty of action, some nice new weapons, some bad ass extra enemies! The new Super Mutant, Ghouls and Radscorpions are insanely strong, and if you're caught unprepared they can take you out very quickly. They make Deathclaws look like softies! Still need to reach level 30 three times for all the karma achievements, and I'm done with the game, until the next (rumoured) DLC appears anyway.

That sounds a lot different to "Gonna complete the achievments, then sell it on".

Well, I'll let you off then . Figured it seemed like an easy enough 1250.
Have you done PoP to 1250 yet?
