holy [expletive], Batman just screwed me over with a corrupt save. I was something like 75% through with the game. I'm super pissed right now and don't want to play back through it even though I really was enjoying it.

you sure? theres a spot that purposedly tricks you...mebbe you already passed that part though

[clevername]

yeah, it's not that spot.

I played this morning, turned the system off, then went back to play again later and when I booted the game back up and hit continue game it brought up the corrupted save.

I'd go Guitar Hero.

I just picked up the new Saw game for PS3. Looking forward to it.

If you like Tenacious D or metal culture you need to play Brutal Legend. The game is very funny so far.

I'll have to see how the gameplay holds up but so far it's pretty fun, too.

I play a lot of Madden and college football video games.

So, anyone else on the bubble about Borderlands? I'm afraid that it's going to wind up like Diablo and Phantasy Star Online, with rampant douchebags spending hours every day to ruin the experience for everyone else, but that could be avoided by playing with a small team.

I've gone back and forth on it. A lot of the previews just look like endless streams of boring small animal enemies you kill just for the sake of getting loot and leveling up. I don't see much point to progression in the game other than the need to level up.

anybody have guitar hero 5 for xbl? i picked it up yesterday...it's fun, though i had a hard time justifying getting the game since you have to have one of the guitar controllers and since it can only be used on those types of games...figure i'll get beatles:RB, but that'll prolly be it...if anyone wants to "jam", hit me up...jocephus83

i love that "fame" by david bowie is on it
