Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
Rumor has it MS is going to lower the price of live, and that's why there's been so many gold deals floating around.

Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
Really? I'm good through January 2010, but I'd be curious to see what they lower it to.Michael wrote:Rumor has it MS is going to lower the price of live, and that's why there's been so many gold deals floating around.
BTW, I finally beat GOW1. When I first started playing it, the movement bothered the hell out of me...probably not the best game to play directly after Halo3. I found myself constantly wanting to jump and that just doesn't happen with GOW.

Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
It's really easy to find 13 mos for 30 bucks online, so I figure it'll be around that price range.
So are you digging the cover system now? They improved the feel in 2.
You, joc, and I have to play some horde and co-op together.

Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
Yeah, I do enjoy it now. It just took sitting down and giving it a chance to get used to it. I was tempted to call in sick today to mess around with GOW2, but I'm gonna go in and leave a couple hours early. Definitely wanna try some coop stuff.

I notice you've been playing L4D. I really enjoyed it but without some good coop buddies I figured it'd suck online. If you don't mind playing with a noob, I would enjoy tagging along with you sometime.

Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
hell yeah man...im really diggin it...do you own it? 'cause i dont see you playin it...or at least, haven't noticed it...but fwiw, its really not bad without co-op buddies...the AI-controlled teammates can get annoying but they generally do what they should...but when you play with random people, most likely you'll find enough good/decent/nice players to play with...although, l4d has its share of a-holes...but man its great...its never, ever, ever the sameMichael wrote:Jocephus wrote:hell yeahMichael wrote:It's really easy to find 13 mos for 30 bucks online, so I figure it'll be around that price range.

i definitely wouldn't mind playing some gow2...i dont think ive played another game since ive gotten l4d (about 2 weeks)...but, you can't play with more than 2 people on teh campaign, right? itd be sweet if we could all play the campaign...oh well, can't go wrong with "horde"...horde's relaly the only MP mode i play on with gow2...the rest are way too tough for me

I think multiplayer is going to be a hoot.
Halo Wars will be the first RTS I've played since C&C 1.

Re: New Xbox Live "experience"
If anybody wants to play L4D or GOW2, I'm down for it. sXeSTL is the GamerTag. Just add me. I haven't been on lately but just send me a message or something and I'll be there. I've gotten really good at both of them, so I won't be dead weight, hopefully.
