resident evil 5 demo comes out on the 1/26 for the xbox (i believe the next week for ps3 users)...read that it has 2 online/split screen co-op missions...im definitely gettin' it

I finally got Fallout 3. It's sweet, though damn if it isn't another next-gen dark brown and gray landscape. If you go up high in Megaton and look down it's hard to distinguish one building from another. Same out in the wasteland.

I think developers are getting carried away with using texture and lighting. In trying to make things real and gritty, it seems like they're not thinking about what's playable. It makes more sense in a wasteland, but even GTA 4 is like this in parts.
Fable 2 is very refreshing in this respect.

I guess it was only a matter of time.

Awesome interactive map for Fallout 3, good for finding weapons, items, etc....

I finally got Fallout 3.

Forget the complaints I had about whatever.

Loving this game. Going to marry it.

I've been playing Midnight Club LA like crazy. But I can't play online yet, cause everybody's out there has cars that go twice as fast as mine. It's rather frustrating being stuck w/ my 69 Camaro racing these $300,000 tuners that can do 220 MPH.

thanks dude, that'd be great.

Front Office Manager predictably sucks. I don't really know what's going on, like eg, I offered Ludwick and Wellemeyer contracts that they accepted, but when spring training arrived they were free agents. There's some other stuff that doesn't really make sense to me either. It's supposed to be realistic and obviously I'm a huge baseball nerd, so if I can't figure it out then I feel bad for some other people. Looks like it's getting poor ratings.
