achievements never stop...i've neglected my fallout 3 campaign for awhile now...and it will continue until i complete ghostbusters, which i dont think will be too long...then i'll start back with FO3...i still have to beat the main game, then theres like 4 DLC and this next one...i wish i got paid for this

My character or whatever in FO3 is leveled up too high for where I'm at in the game. I'm cranking up the difficulty level to try and even things out. Some of the "perks" just make things ridiculously easy. I absolutely love the game though.

im going to pick it up now too (lunchbreak)

I've made it through the library so far. I don't think it's a great game, but it is really good. I've been waiting for a good ghostbusters game since I was a little kid.

i got through the next stage after the library...i would agree that it's not a "great" game but i also really like it...lots of easter eggs and funny dialogue, and i think it looks really good too...

here's a question...how many games does everyone have for their current system(s)?

I've got 6 for the 360, 5 for the Wii, and 5 for the DS.
The 360 games are all a year or two old. I trade in games frequently, but always get stuck w/ sports games that are only worth a buck on trade, so I keep them.

I actually own very few. I have all 3 systems and I own like 6 games I think.

I just rent everything via Gamefly.

i already have 11 games..which kinda "scares" me...i figure i'll return a couple, but damn...granted its just me to look out for but still...i should just be saving this money

I own all three systems, and I've probably purchased around 50 games this gen, but I almost never pay full price. My avg price is likely around 30 dollars. I tried gamefly, but I hated not being able to get the games I wanted.

We should trade games with each other.

I never got Orange Box, and I see it's a $30 Greatest Hits title now. I had Half Life 2 for the old Xbox.

Anyone care to vouch for it? Is it much better or different from HL2, graphically and gameplay-wise? Portal comes with it, and I know a lot of people liked that.

gamefly works pretty well for me. I haven't had too much trouble getting what I've wanted. For big releases like Halo and Call of Duty I just buy the game, anyway, since I know I'll want to revisit those games later. I play lots of games but don't necessarily finish all of them...and I feel much less guilty about that with gamefly since I simply return it and get another.

Before I got into gamefly I used Michael's method via eBay. Buying and selling tons of games.

I did buy Orange Box, but I hadn't played Half Life 2 before that. It has the next two Episodes, as well, so you get about 2/3 of a new Half Life game there as well. And Portal is a blast.

i was under the impression that orange box has always been 30$...because it has like 5 "mini games"...all i know though is: it's a very popular title and that Valve made it (valve makes left 4 dead, an amazing game)...
