Time to buy an XBOX360? - Page 368

I'm actually really enjoying Halo multiplayer atm. When playing free for all I just leave the headset off to ignore the kids, and the past couple of team games I've had actually managed to play, win, and party up with some teams of brits - very enjoyable.

Got the MVP achievement last night which pleased me (best k:d ratio of all players on all teams).

I've only played Halo 3 multiplayer once I think and it was a really small game for some reason. Seemed ok but couldn't match CoD4 for me so I didn't really go back to it. Hardly touched any multiplayer games lately though

After completing COD2 I've gone back to GTA and am really enjoying it. One of my most proud moments was landing the chopper outside the safe house so I now have aerial transport whenever I leave my appartment

Eurogamer didn't like Infinite Undiscovery :/

Quote:

With Star Ocean IV and Tales of Vesperia due next year, and Final Fantasy on its way to the 360, this needed to be something quite special to make its mark in a genre not known for its deviations from formula. Yet at its best Infinite Undiscovery is just another standard action JRPG following a strictly linear route through the same predictable story about another reluctant young hero overthrowing yet another evil empire. In its worst moments, it's an unwieldy collision of ill-conceived ideas and sloppy technical implementation that will test the patience of even the most hardened player. Such flaws are really only worth tolerating if you're so devoted to the JRPG genre that you'd settle for mediocrity rather than wait for the good stuff.

Oh dear

I'm still tempted by it if I can find it cheap though :/ I'm such a sucker for JRPGs. It'll have to be pretty cheap though!

Haly · 08-09-2008, 16:27

Grrr, didn't realise Viva Pinata:TIP could do with a vision cam :/
How annoying, they seem so useless for anything else!

Daz · 08-09-2008, 16:42

When I get it, I'll scan in whoever and send them over

Haly · 08-09-2008, 16:44

Yes please

If they were cheaper, I'd just buy a cam but they're still £20ish.

I got mine bundled with 12 months live and some other stuff, worked out that the camera was basically free. Would never really have got it otherwise.

Think they'll bundle one with that 'you're in the movies' jobbie they demo'd at E3 - if you were planning to get that.

Haly · 08-09-2008, 16:59

Any ideas when it's coming out?
Birthday next month so might manage some sort of bundle then.
